Meal: dinner and drinks
My thoughts:
I came here with two old college classmates for drinks and some good food (so we heard), and at the end of the night, were we ever glad we did! We ordered everything to share.
We started with the Yam fries ($8.99). Now, being a huge sweet potato/yam fries fan, I have tried them at countless establishments, and this is definitely the best I've had! Loved the parmesan shavings and amaaaazing truffle lemon garlic aioli!
Baja fish tacos ($13.49 for three) with fish & shrimp, white corn tortillas, guacamole & Mexican hot sauce. I love fish tacos, and it's such a shame that they're such a scarcity here in Canada. The last time I had one was three years ago in San Diego. I highly recommend this. Very flavourful with just the right amount of kick, no 'fishy' flavour whatsoever - loved these!
Steak & sushi ($22.99) - soy marinated tataki style top sirloin and a
rainbow roll. The steak was not bad - well-marinated and well, just not tough. That's all I can really give it. The roll, on the other hand, I didn't like. There was a lot of rice. The rice also did not taste like Japanese rice, nor did it taste like it was cooked with vinegar (as all sushi rice normally is). Thumbs down.
