We scheduled tea for my MIL?s birthday. MIL arrived first and got a pot of tea. Everyone else at the table, who wanted coffee,... waited for almost a half hour before we flagged someone down to ask for some. Maybe 15 minutes after that, our food arrived. Thefood was lovely and well presented. After eating, we watched staff fill coffee cups and water glasses for the tables around uswhile ours remained empty. After the third time the table next to us had their water glasses filled without anyone coming tocheck on us, I walked to the wait station and grabbed a pitcher of water to top up the table?s glasses. Wait staff turned upquickly to take the pitcher from me, and shortly after that we had someone stop by to check if we wanted another top up. Thestaff seemed lovely and professional, but the service we received was terrible. Beautiful atmosphere. Good food. Terribleservice. Read more
Tried this out for the first time. The staff was very friendly and professional. They made you feel like you were dining at a... luxurious upscale restaurant. We had a Vodka cran and 7 but it wasn't quite right. Didn't have any bubbles like you wouldexpect from the 7 up and just something wasn't right. The beer my husband ordered was out of stock so the waiter suggestedanother and it was ok but my husband didn't even finish it. The calamari was kind of bland and almost seemed like it wasundercooked. The free bread was to die for. So delicious. The Lettuce Wraps were sparce with the filling but tasted delicious. We had the seafood Fettuccine and we found the pasta was AL dente which I am not really a fan of personally but lots like itthat way. I never mind eating it on occasion that way but coupled with the watered down sauce I didn't even finish 1/3 of it. My husband ate some and he didn't even finish it. We basically ate the seafood out of it with a couple bites of the Fettuccine. The fish and chips were ok but nothing special. Our favorite part of the entire meal was the fries and free bread. After a$100 bill .....we won't eat there again ourselves. I would also suggest the restaurant maybe clean the roof of the outdoorspace. Hard to be upscale when people look up and see all that dirt and yuck. Read more
Breakfast was awesome! Coffee was excellent, loved the hazelnut chocolate ciarellos. And the patio was beautiful.
This is my first restaurant I had tried when I was in Nanaimo and I was sooooooo amazed !!! I m from Vancouver and Taiwan, both... places are full with diverse and delicious food! But the quality of the food they make here is amazing!! Beautiful atmospheretoo. There were only two tables of the customers including myself.. feel like it was my privilege to dine in at this hidden gem!Not saying that the food in here is diverse, but def delicious and good quality compare to the same dishes I have tried inVancouver(the keg, catus club.. etc) if you don?t mind the price, wanna spend some romantic special time with a good food andserve. Give this place a try! Read more
Honestly if I could give this place more stars, I would. We had an anniversary dinner here that was fantastic. I don?t know how... more people don?t know about this place. We went on a Saturday evening and were the only ones there! I had a fantastic steak andmy partner had the lobster lasagna- to die for. The wine list was also very nice and diverse. We are big on wine so we loved it.The service was out of this world. Hassan went above and beyond and it showed in his service and all of the details. Can?t tellyou enough that you need to check out this place. Wish we lived in the area, because we would be back again. Read more
Food was delicious. I had the mushroom ravioli and I would go back there for it! Other items our table had, seafood ravioli,... steak, salads, halibut & chips. There were no complaints from anyone at the table. Nice little hidden gem! Read more
