Review from Lucy F.

Janet Lynn's was pretty much my entry into fine dining as I grew up and went to university, as an incredibly classy and romantic anniversary. It's been my go to place for special occasions ever since.
The menu doesn't change much but the service is just so attentive that It keeps me going back. The room is lovely and maybe a bit stuffy, but it is a welcome change from the restaurants that are closer to the universities. I did feel out of place at first because we were the youngest people there, but our waitress was so nice and helpful with everything on the menu/wine list.
When the food came I did scarf it down (possibly to the chagrin and scoffing of the table next to us) but it was so delicious. The duck and chicken were so delicious as was the creme brulee for dessert.
Forget Symposium for first dates, take him/her to Janet Lynn's for something romantic, memorable and elegant. -

I usually only eat here at lunch and when someone else is paying. The room has the feeling of a place for business people or ladies who lunch.
The food is on the pricier side, but really well-executed. The last thing I had was the Quebec ermite blue salad. I'm not sure it came together with the avocado and citrus fruit, but it was interesting.
Definitely not recommended for vegetarians. Typically, the only vegetarian options are a couple of salads. They will do special orders, like risotto with just grilled vegetables. But last time they did that for me, the stock used to make the risotto was not suitable for vegetarians.
Vegans need not apply.
