If you want a casual, unpretentious, funky restaurant for OYSTERS... Rodney's is the place to chow down.  

I love the fact that their list of oysters are so long, that by the time I try everyone of them, I'm done.  Oh, but oysters aren't the only…More »

After going to the Elite Yelp Party at Suika, I knew I wanted to come back.  Sometimes you wonder if it will be just as good on a regular night and Suika did not disappoint.

I don't recall everything that was ordered at Suika, (I'm allowed since it…More »

Ah Guu... what can I say that hasn't been said already in the 100+ reviews?  

I've tried 95% of the menu and there was only 1 time that was disappointing - their snowcrab legs dish.  I don't see it on the menu anymore so I'm guessing other people…More »

A very sweet and thoughtful friend of mine took me to L'Abattoir for my birthday since it's one of my favorite restaurants.  She's not a fan of the decor, but I love exposed brick with modern furniture and glass touches everywhere.  But one thing we…More »

Was back for a birthday party and again, I was not disappointed.  

We had a huge communal table going and I tried the seabass, tenderloin, escargot, pate and onion soup.  The verdict?  Amazing, yet again!  

Les Faux Bourgeois, I love your consistency,…More »

From huge parties to intimate gatherings, Chambar's service is always stellar.

I came for drinks last night before the concert at GM Place and they make one of the best dirty martinis.  The drink is never too overly salty and the olive taste like it…More »

5/5 for food, price atmosphere and service!

A few of us decided to try Laziza since it was close to a friend's house and another friend was gluten intolerant.  We had heard good things about this restaurant in terms of being quick to assist/substitute…More »

My husband arrived at 11:00AM on Sunday morning and it was packed.  Was it worth the 45min wait for the table?  You bet it was!

I love the theme of the whole restaurant.  There's even little twisted forks on the menu clip board.  The food?  I was…More »
