Great crème brûlée for dessert. Outstanding mushroom omelet. Steak Asian salad Was good but the steak was a bit tough

Wow! I walked past this resto so many times, and, from the outside, it looked average. However, as soon as you walk in the front door, you know that you are some place special. The ambience is great, but, more importantly, the food was exquisite. Yes, it was expensive, but the experience was worth every penny. To start, we ordered rolls with chive butter, and, for an entrée, had pumpkin ravioli with walnuts, apples, onions, and ricotta cheese--yum! The food was so good that we decided to order dessert, an apple tartan which was equally delicious. On top of that, our server was excellent, very helpful, and friendly. You have to try this place at least once!

White Dog Cafe is fabulous for a delicious breakfast/lunch meet up with friends. We have been here several times and this was the best so far. Our waiter was extremely helpful and courteous to our friend who is somewhat handicapped. The mushroom soup is absolutely delicious. They did not rush us even though it got very crowded as the afternoon wore on. I love the ambiance here, too. Very comfortable seating.

River Twice can be summed up by one word…Exceptional. From exceptional ambiance and atmosphere, to exceptional food and exceptional service. They go beyond attention to detail, they pay attention to EVERY detail, to ensure that you and your dining party have the most seamless and memorable dinner of your life. The food was exquisite, dare I say edible works of art filled with vibrant flavours and thoughtful components. I was left astonished as bite after bite culinary magic danced across my tongue engaging my pallet and my soul. Chef Randy has really created something magical, a culinary oasis on an otherwise humble street corner. Do your self a favour and come experience the gastronomic wanderlust that is River Twice.

The experience was outstanding. The food was very eclectic. The service was exceptional. The owner/chef Omar Tate personally gave everyone the backstory for every dish! I highly recommend this place.
