I will first state that we have been here a handful of times. All were pretty darn good. Our meals last night were exceptional. I had the Sesame Tuna, which I can easily say was the single best entree that I have ever had anywhere. Pretty incredible, my wife had the lamb which she stated was better than most, we also had the mushrooms and poached prawns. She had the Vista Greens salad which she stated was very good, blackberry vinaigrette was awesome. Our only complaint/disappointment was our Entrees were slow coming out. Our server was Nicole, a very professional waitress. We will definitely be back, prices were very fair.

Was cold in the restaurant and the main course took a long time. Food was delicious and the view was great except seated near the washrooms, didn’t feel private as it should have.

We had a great birthday celebration dinner. Made an early reservation to get the happy hour bonus. We had a great table away from the main area which was quieter, and still had great views of the City. Service and meals were excellent. We look forward to going back soon.
