    We were celebrating an anniversary made all the more special from the wonderful service we received from Melanie and the rest of the staff at La Plume. Upon arriving we received a complimentary glass of champagne and a handwritten card on behalf of the staff congratulating us on the occasion (lovely touch). The overall experience was un-rushed but attentive and the food was terrific. Enjoyed a great bottle of Bordeaux with our meals (wine was half off after 9 PM). We will definitely return.

    I love the French music that was playing during the early part of the evening before the restaurant started to fill up and the music changed to something more upbeat. And the beef tartar is a must. … Un petit de Paris à Toronto.
