Visited from Winnipeg, looking for a tapas place. Saw roast duck on the menu, came mainly for that. Chef John suggested several dishes, starting with the steak tartare, bacon-wrapped dates, pork belly (his take on the Filipino classic, Lechon kawali), the scallops, and of course, the duck. Expecting a lot, Chef John delivered. The scallops were the best I've tasted (all across Canada & US), simply pan fried with a perfect crust adorned with cumin and spices. The take on Lechon Kawali was succulent, and came with a vinegar-chile dip. Simply good. The roast duck was perfect, juicy with a corn-potato compote. The steak tartare was not your ordinary fare; on bread like a bruschetta, it had Korean flavours to complement the raw meat with a little heat. And for the bacon-wrapped dates, it was a good interpretation of the Spanish tapas, drizzled with a balsamic reduction. I ate it all. The ambience was perfect, the service, and the food are what you'd expect from one of Canada's top restaurants. This is Windsor's best kept secret!

First & foremost, make reservations!! The word is out and when we arrived for our 8pm reservation, the place was packed. We were a bit early so we sat in the lounge area for about 15 minutes and then we were seated in the rear of the restaurant at a high-top table which afforded us a clear view of the kitchen through a window. We were able to watch as all the wonderful dishes were put out for the waiters to pick up. Excellent martinis and good selection of wines to enjoy with your tasty meal. We began with P.E.I. oysters - YUM - great selection! My husband had the Sea Bass and I had the steak. Presentation was very pleasing and our taste buds were not disappointed. Our server, Scott, was so friendly and answered my questions thoroughly. There are so many choices on the menu, I can't wait to go back. Apparently there will be a change in the menu as they change with the seasons. We travel a lot and have eaten in some pretty special restaurants, F&B is right up there with the best!!
By far the best place I have ever eaten at, the cocktails and food is out of this world, they are masters at texture, flavour and presentation and their staff is the most attentive and caring team I’ve experienced anywhere. Been here 3 times with every time being excellent. Always recommend. Thanks guys!
