Delicious lunch/brunch!
Met a group of friends for lunch. Luckily a reservation had been made as it’s a busy spot!
Winterlicious is on so more choices to an already varied menu. I chose the special menu and enjoyed a Caesar Salad, Rainbow Trout with colourful & tasty vegetables. An Apple tart with vanilla ice cream was the perfect finish.
My dining companions chose a variety of other dishes including Eggs Benedict & Reuben sandwich.
All meals were declared delicious!
Definitely a place I would return to.
We stopped at Sambucas on Church on Sunday evening during the Pride festivities. Both my girlfriend and I ordered a pint of beer and shared the CARNIVORO pizza ($15). This pizza came topped with grilled chicken, Italian sausage, pepperoni, bacon, red onions, and red peppers over tomato sauce and topped with mozzarella cheese. We both enjoyed this pizza very much! The chicken was a bit dry but the Italian sausage made up for it. The highlight for me was the sauce - it was full of flavour. The service was really good too even though it was really busy. I would definitely return to Sambucas for another meal.
Came here for dinner with a party of 4 (myself included) on a Saturday night. We had reservations, but even so, getting a table wouldn't have been an issue since there seemed to have been a bit of room.
We all ordered off their $25 prix-fixe menu and really enjoyed it! I got the salad, angus steak, and lava cake and it was definitely worth it. They started us off with some bread and butter, which was excellent, since I was pretty hungry when I arrived! The salad was a mixed green with almonds, goat cheese, and roasted red peppers. It felt a bit short on the red peppers, cheese, and almonds, but was nonetheless delicious. The olive oil dressing was really well done.
The steak was perfectly cooked for my taste and had an excellent glaze that really enhanced the flavour. The vegetables and potatoes were the perfect amount. The lava cake was a lovely way to end the dinner.
The ambiance was quite nice! It was a little dim; I saw some other patrons using their cellphones to read their menus.
The server forgot some of my friends' pitcher of wine and they were mostly easy to get a hold of when we needed something.
A great night and will be back! :)
