Absolutely terrific! My wife booked us in for a pesto- and pizza-making course. It was awesome! So informative, fun and tasty (you get to eat your pizza at the end). Wonderful, friendly service, great music and excellent location.

Great spot for cocktails and lunch before shopping at DFO. The view was spectacular. The staff were friendly helpful and made us feel special suggested their favourites. We enjoyed the food. Calabrian Anchovie toast, how could you not was the stand out for us. Great drink menu. Great vibe.

Service didn’t do much because we ordered using QR code and then they asked for 15% tip. The ribs were cold, fatty, and dry. Meatballs were good. Mushroom gnocchi was the best- highly recommend. Atmosphere was MEH- nothing special drinks were decent but boring.

Was good when first opened. Has gone downhill unfortunately. This glass of wine - had a larger pour for a wine tasting. Minimal amount. Barely 75ml . Full price. Have to go up all the time to order more drink (as the first one barely large enough for a mouthful of food) which is not ideal when you are eating a meal

Great location- had an awesome table looking over the river. The cocktails were all amazing- happy hour is great from 4-6:30pm. Had some tapas which also were tasty and great price
