The design, originally conceptualized by noted designers Yabu Pushelberg and most recently refreshed by Solid Design Creative, is clean and simple, yet absolutely stylish - a brilliant reflection of Canada's rich raw environment. That same brilliance is captured through the flavours and textures of Chef Ron McKinlay’s inspired regional Canadian cuisine.

I spent a long time deciding where to celebrate my milestone birthday, and I’m so glad I chose this restaurant! They gifted us appetizers and dessert, which was a delightful surprise. We had also pre-ordered a cheese platter, which was beautifully presented. Each of my invited friends chose their own dishes from the menu, and everyone was absolutely thrilled by the incredible flavors and the exquisite presentation of the food. The sommelier recommended delicious wines to complement our meal after the champagne, enhancing the entire experience. Our waitress, Marilu, was incredibly pleasant and attentive throughout the evening. I'm so glad she was responsible for our table, as her excellent service made the experience even more special. Our waiter described every dish with great detail and even gave us a tour of the restaurant at the end. I will never forget this unforgettable day at this remarkable restaurant!

Glen and Priscilla looked after me and my family brilliantly. Would highly recommend them. We had a two week trip in Canada, and this restaurant also had the best dry martini we tried. Good food and good value as well, right next to the lake. Thanks to Glen and Priscilla for a lovely evening!
