Meal: dinner
My thoughts:
I was reluctant to come here sheerly because of the distance, but my friend insisted (and he offered to drive - I can't even begin to express how much I despise the TTC, haha.) This restaurant is located right off of the Humber Bay. Beautiful area.
We arrived at 7 and were told there was a 25 minute wait. We waited at the bar and had some drinks. We were transferred to a table about 15 minutes later.
Mushroom Salad ($11.99) with Grilled Chicken ($5 extra): organic greens topped with wild mushrooms and goat cheese drizzled with balsamic glaze. Our waitress told me this would be enough for a meal, which it wasn't (maybe I just eat more than the typical female), but I didn't feel like ordering something else. Anyway, the salad itself was really good. There were some toasted glazed nuts, which paired very well with balsamic vinegar. There was also a pretty generous amount of chicken. I think my only gripe would be the overall portion size.
Veal Scallopini ($16.99) with Greek Salad ($7 extra): veal topped with a
mushroom cream sauce served with salad. My friend upgraded his salad to a
Greek salad, which I believe was $5 and feta was an extra $2. The veal and the
veal sauce were delicious. Very hearty.
My verdict: Yes, I would definitely recommend this restaurant if you're looking for delicious, authentic Italian fare with a gorgeous view of Lake Ontario in the backdrop. I wouldn't recommend their lychee martini, though; the lychee like it came from a very low-end/cheap brand of canned lychee. Friendly service. If you have a tendency to overeat, you have the option of exploring or hiking in the Humber Bay Park after dinner. They also offer various desserts and gelato flavours, which we didn't try.
