071125 Summerlicious dinner: upon entering on a hot day, no AC simply a small ceiling fan for the entire place in very slow run hardly feel the coolness at all... greeted by a white Caucasian wait staff who seemed a tad tactless. For the meals, opted for: APP ~ PEI mussels the mussels were pretty small; sauce was mediocre and an absolute skimping bread which I find stale my opinion... MAIN ~ lamb shank flavourful yet not the best- meat still a tad tough... DESSERT ~ lava cake just scooped a spoonful more so the ice cream... I have had better ones. DRINKS ~ Black Orchid at $12.95 hmm could've gone to a proper restaurant downtown... drank more glasses of water with ice ~ had to ask twice for it... restaurant was poorly utterly hot...

1. Phoned to make reservation and inquired about Happy Hour menu and requested reservation for the bar area to use Happy Hour menu- Was seated by hostess and given Happy Hour menus- Was then told -“no we do not have Happy Hour on Saturday” I explained that they took my reservation knowing I wanted this menu, they sat us with the menu and the online menu only stipulated 4-6pm- they should have honoured the menu 2. Asked us if we preferred flat or sparkling water- answered flat. Charged us 3.22 each for flat “distilled water” 3. Charged the designated driver for each club soda- no refills on soda water! Paid $10.50 for 3 small glasses of club soda. 4. Two guests ordered off fresh fish market- $44 for red snapper and served with one potato and some Horta - these guests left still hungry after very small portioned meals. The other two meals ordered were Crispy Halibut and Souvlaki, both on which could have used a few more potatoes. Overall portions are small here. 5. Desserts were $13-$15 and again small portions. 6. Was seated at the bar area for a menu we couldn’t even use- and the entire time we were there was only 2 tables filled so the atmosphere was dull and servers slow. If I had known about the menu not be offered I would have reserved the other side of restaurant that looked more interesting. 7. Be prepared not to see guests on other side of table as the lamp decor too tall and blocked the person at my diagonal of table.

A Wonderful Delicious Experience For starters the service was fantastic always taken care of; along with being so friendly they make you feel like part of the family. The speed the food was brought out to us as well was very quick but also the perfect amount of time to get settled in between the apps and the entrée. The apps were Fantastic we had the Deep Fried Ravioli which were these perfectly done home made ravioli with a fantastic sauce to dip in. With those we also ordered the Stuffed Banana Peppers which were the best stuffed peppers I've ever had in my life; Done with that homemade sauce that makes my mouth water. For the Mains we ordered a few different items. I had the special of the day the Ricotta Stuffed Shells which I enjoyed fully not even leaving sauce on the plate which I cleaned off with the done in house focaccia bread which was to die for. The person I went with had a meatball sub that he gave the highest of praise to and from what I saw looked Sublime. He also enjoyed the lasagna which I had a bite of and when I tell you that this lasagna beats any others that I've ever had anywhere else that is no lie or exaggeration. Along with the great food and amazing service all of the prices were very friendly and reasonable making it this a must dine location that I will be recommending to all of my friends and family. I LOVED THIS RESTURANT

After a lighthearted evening watching & Juliet, we made our way to Scaddabush for some Italian comfort food. All of EnD Adventures was together — our daughters, friends, and the two of us — which already set the tone for a memorable night out. Despite the restaurant being packed, we were seated quickly. Our server, Noah, stopped by early with menus and the nightly specials. It was clear the entire team was hustling; drinks took longer than usual, but Noah was doing everything he could to keep the pace. The space itself was a delight. Warm lighting, thoughtful décor, and those whimsical canned vegetables added a quirky charm that made the room feel inviting and full of character. There was always something interesting to notice. The fresh mozzarella — their signature — absolutely lived up to its reputation. Creamy, rich, and beautifully prepared, it was easily the standout of the table. Our meals arrived hot and exactly as ordered, and everyone enjoyed their choices. The only real downside was the long gaps between check-ins for drink refills or questions. With several large tables nearby and the restaurant buzzing, it was understandable, though still noticeable. All in all, it was a lovely evening, and we’d happily return — perhaps to a quieter location next time, just to see how the service feels when the pace isn’t quite so intense.

This was our first time visiting this restaurant. The staff were friendly, and the overall service was excellent. However, we were mistakenly charged for an item we did not order. Unfortunately, we didn’t notice this until we were already in the car. Upon reviewing the receipt, we saw that an appetizer had been added to our bill in error. My husband returned to the restaurant to address the issue. The server was very apologetic and promptly removed the item. However, the manager or supervisor showed little concern and did not extend any goodwill gesture. A small gesture—such as waiving the cost of the appetizer we did have, or offering a complimentary item on our next visit—would have gone a long way in leaving a more positive impression.

- Always great food at Milestones but always very expensive so come prepared. - We had their pitcher of Sangria which was delicious! - Ask for their aioli to go with the steak or the creamy horseradish sauce. - They no longer carry many of the great items they once had though..the double baked potato, the peanut butter ice cream and brownie, the caprese balsamic flatbread..all the stuff I loved! - Waitress was good..a bit dippy at times but was ok. - Well done steak was done perfectly. Nice relaxing dinner out. Went at 9pm on a Sunday night.

Finding this gem was an accident as we researched on foot for an early meal in Little Italy before leaving Toronto. On a Saturday- even at 5pm you need a reservation but we sat up at the bar and ate there. Fabulous food and service and very clean ( we could see!) We had excellent bruschetta and figs with goats cheese wrapped in prosciutto- delicious. We shared our two tagliatelle choices Gingrich misto and frutti del mare. Both were excellent. This is the place to come in Little Italy!

First time we came here for dinner and found the place was excellent. The food was good but the portions could really be more generous! The Tuna tartare cones were our favorite and we also love the beef tartare...again, would hope the portion be bigger.. The fisherman's ice cream was different and we really enjoyed it. The service was also very good and we had a great time!

Amazing experience, was looking to try a new steakhouse besides the regular Harbour60 or Blue Blood experience but let me tell you, this place does not disappoint. My favourite experience by far regardless of being seated at the bar, Thanks to Milan ofcourse. Firstly, the food was impeccable, everything was so detail oriented and the tastes matched that energy. Best steak I’ve ever had in my life was eaten here. A dry aged Kobe Wagyu strip loin, one word - butter. Besides the unreal food this experience would not have been it without the energy and service of Milan. She took the initiative to explain and answer any questions we had, all of her recommendations hit the spot, and ontop of that, took the time to give us a tour of the dry aging room. Her energy was 10/10 throughout the experience and it wouldn’t have been as comfortable as she made it feel without her. 100% recommend for anyone in search of an upscale fine dining experience. Will definitely return.

I had eaten lunch here a few times in the previous two years and had a good experience. However, last night's dinner was over-priced and under-whelming. We had visited Greece in October last year and eaten wonderful meals every day, and we were looking forward to having a comparable meal in our home town. Nope! My spouse's moussaka was under-spiced - no discernible taste of cloves or allspice or cinnamon - and served with plain rice and steamed carrots and green beans - for $35! My "slow roasted" lamb was grey and swimming in an indistinct gravy, served with the same boring veg and a boiled potato - for $34. Perhaps we should had had the calamari that everyone here raves about, but if the other items on the menu don't measure up, what's the point?

Absolutely my favorite spa so far in Vietnam. I asked for a facial, 60min massage, and the Indian head massage. They helped me choose the Vietnamese massage option for my preferences and it was wonderful. Like a combination of Swedish massage and kneading techniques. Super thorough but gentle extractions during the facial. And the Indian hair massage was just the right pressure and combination of techniques - I’ve gotten “head spas” before that were just scratching and scrubbing and it didn’t feel good. And she detangled my hair as she went as well. I wish I could come here every week. They also had the same therapist for all three treatments so I never had to switch rooms and she kind of blended the three services together which also meant I didn’t have to lay in the same position for too long. Also delicious infused water to start, delicious tea and yogurt fruit pudding at the end. And I was able to shower before and was offered a shower after. Plus - a written questionnaire before and written feedback requested after. I truly have no notes - it’s perfect here. I believe my therapists name was Trâm.
