THE LEAD VERDICT
“their breakfast poutine is absolutely bonkers - crispy fries topped with hollandaise cheese curds and a runny egg. it's like canada and brunch had a baby and honestly i'm obsessed”
“coffee tho was weaker than my motivation on mondays. for a place that clearly takes their food seriously the coffee needs like major work”
ALSO FILED
“smoked saaalmon benedict was done perfectly - eggs poached right quality salmon and hollandaise that didnt break. not even kidding clean and proper”
“english muffin was cleeearly toasted way before it got to me adn had gone all soft. like those small details actually matter trust me”
“weekend brunch pizza with prosciutto and egg is genius - crispy crust, runny yolk, right amount of cheese. gotta say plus bottomless coffee that's actually goood not just cafeteria stuff 10/10”
“service was all over the place during sunday brunch - had to ask three times for hot sauce and our server completely forgot about refills”
“family atmosphere without being childish - they have proper high chairs and servers were patient when my toddler took forever deciding between chicken strips and mac and cheese. portions are big enough to share”
“no changing table in the mens bathroom which put us in an awkward situation during our visit”
“mushroom and truffle oil pizza shows real restraint - they didn't overload it wiht toppings and the truffle oil was used sparingly so it enhances instead of overwhelming. good technique”
“the 'asian fusion' pizza with teriyaki chicken felt like a missed opportunity - flavors were muddled and it didn't really represent either cuisine”
“thier korean breakfast bowl with kimchi bulgogi and perfect rice shows they actually understand korean flavors. not doing fusion just to be fancy - just good technique applied thoughtfully”
“teh kimchi was clearly store bought and didn't have that proper fermentation funk. when you're highlighting korean flavors the kimchi has to be legit dead serious”
“ok so teh french toast had this amazing crispy outside that was soft and custard like inside with just the right cinnamon warmth. the texture contrast was literally perfect”
“bacon came out lukewarm adn limp wiht no crispy snap at all!!! like temperature and texture both totally missed teh mark on something that simple”
“grabbed a bar seat and had the best solo dining experience in months. bartender made killer cocktail recs and watching them work the pizza oven was entertainment in itself”
“bar stools are super uncomfortable for a long meal - no back support and tehy're positioned too high for the counter”
