This spot was a bit intriguing when it opened up. Located in summerhill area which is a bit of a mixed bag IMO for restaurants especially this stretch of Yonge as I can’t recall anything memorable within this block other than the nut bar nearby.
The interior is nice and has a pleasant feel there is giant glass window into the kitchen even but I couldn’t see anything due to the reflection.
On to the menu oh they are priced on the high side. We tried Labneh and BANRU (I think we ordered this by mistake as wanted the halloumi starter)
They came with a nice bread which unfortunately had so much oil on it that was very hard to eat without a fork and knife.
Banru has a nice kick to it as well.
I ordered the lamb chops and other diner ordered the chicken. Both don’t come with any sides so we added a side of potatoes as well (hefty price again for what you get)
The lamb chops are nicely grilled and cooked to the medium rare (good) the chicken went well too. A major sticking point IMO was that both were served with plate with high sides (Almost a bowl) now there is no way for one to cut the meat especially lamb chops at a decent angle.
The place started to get busy as the evening progressed. I tried a red wine which was decent and paired well with the lamb chops.
I think this place has its work cut out for them (pun intended) starting with a few adjustments needed for the server ware :slight_smile: as at this price point there is little room for mistakes IMO.
3.5 stars for now.
