"First impressions were a small, quiet, upscale, pub with a comfortable vibe. It was very comfortable, a hint of incense as we entered made me realise this was something different. We picked a table in the back as a duet was setting up (more later , and were greeted by a smile from the server who brought menus and took drinks orders. I picked a shandy on tap (delicious , my wife had a 4 Roses and coke, our friend had a glass of wine. Then I noticed signs for infused spirits, done in house. I had a vanilla and honey bourbon after dinner that was really nice, but want to go back try the habanero tequila. For starters we had a plate of crispy pot stickers served with a nice dipping sauce with kick. We all had the corn chowder, that gets a big recommendation from me ... delicious. I was torn on dinner because the menu has a lot of choices; small plates, sammichs , poutine-style, and large plates. I went with the New York steak and chose local mushrooms rather than veg and it was worth every penny. My wife had the short rib poutine, I stole a cheese curd with some sauce from the ribs and YUM! Dessert was a custard dishes. Mine has an espresso liqueur, while my wife 's had strawberries. Served in large champagne glasses, these looked like cocktails and were a perfect way to have a light but flavourful dessert Our server was terrific. Friendly, willing to make suggestions, and answered questions about the menu items. She was attentive without hovering and made us feel very comfortable. The bartender, (Markoh perhaps? was friendly and kept an eye on everything. Drinks were solid and reasonably priced. Oh the duet. I am not a fan of live music while I dine in general as it tends to be played too loud. BUT, the music was at a reasonable level so we could enjoy it and still have a conversation. The guys were really good, played and sang well, and were joined on some songs by a young lady with a nice voice as well. We will be back."
