Intimate table setting, excellent service and extensive wine list. The menu is tight but provides good choices. Our meals were... very well prepared and presented, very tasty. No CoVid protections between servers, clients or other staff was visible. Read more
You know, it is not every day you walk into a place and get the opportunity to order something that has become a me me from... Kitchen Nightmares, but here you can. Grilled Lettuce! (The full episode is on youtube) Over all the food is mostly just fine,and they seem to have jacked the prices from decent value to LOL YOU ARE KIDDING ME. Service was pretty good once she realizedwe were not their for a timed event. Read more
It's a cute restaurant in the neighborhood that the quality of food and nice services are guaranteed. It's got that unique local... friendliness. All staff were super friendly and nice including those who answered our phone, who sat us and who served us. Wewere very happy about the menu our server Rick recommended and services he provided. I am pregnant and wanted to have some nicevirgin cocktail other than mojito and he offered sangria that is substituted with pomegranate juice and oh boy it wasdelicious!! Also, all the food we ordered were delicious. You must try their mushroom pizza. The taste of the fresh ingredientswith a touch of truffle oil was great. The pate and halibut fish cake were also great. They have a nicely set up patio that wewant to try next time. We originally went there to sit in their patio but we decided to stay inside since the inside set up wasalso very romantic and came with more comfy chairs. Read more
We are quite glad that this place has re opened now with the third wave of the pandemic over. We once again had an excellent... dining experience at Glass Monkey. This place exemplifies both high quality ingredients of European trattoria-styling whilestill maintaining a laid back Canadian feel of a local pub eatery. Gastropub is more than apt a term to describe thisjoint! From the moment the usher welcomed us in there was a warm and bustling atmosphere in the restaurant. Rick carried usthrough the menu items and Specials with enthusiasm and efficiency, such as any person with intimate of the knowledge of themenu should have, recommending his favourites and highlighting popular items. He was very professional and entertaining. We alsoreceived warm welcomes and conversation from Janine. Both the patio and inside tables were excellent options. Read more
