The Glass Monkey

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. We were very happy about the menu our server Rick recommended and services he provided. I am pregnant and wanted to have some nice virgin cocktail other than mojito and he offered sangria that is substituted with pomegranate juice and oh boy it was delicious!! Also, all the food we ordered were delicious. You must try their mushroom pizza. The taste of the fresh ingredients with a touch of truffle oil was great. The pate and halibut fish cake were also great. They have a nicely set up patio that we want to try next time. We originally went there to sit in their patio but we decided to stay inside since the inside set up was also very romantic and came with more comfy chairs.

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 while still maintaining a laid back Canadian feel of a local pub eatery. Gastropub is more than apt a term to describe this joint! From the moment the usher welcomed us in there was a warm and bustling atmosphere in the restaurant. Rick carried us through the menu items and Specials with enthusiasm and efficiency, such as any person with intimate of the knowledge of the menu should have, recommending his favourites and highlighting popular items. He was very professional and entertaining. We also received warm welcomes and conversation from Janine. Both the patio and inside tables were excellent options.
