Mineral is an excellent choice for anyone looking to experience Filipino cuisine with a contemporary twist. The price point is on the higher side, but for the quality, presentation, and overall experience, it’s absolutely worth it. Highly recommend.

Really good service, we were in a rush at the end and the server was really accommodating on our schedule. We got the winterlicious menu and the food is fantastic as usual. The pork belly melt in your mouth 🤤 the restaurant is kinda loud considering the price range of the restaurant, but it helps that we have a bigger group and the seating is much less crowded than 2 people table.

The minute you enter Linny’s you know a lovely experience awaits! The ambience is gorgeous and service exceptional. From the menu, we chose the Friday Evening Special option as a way to taste many house favourites. So many delicious items!!! A tiny disappointment … our steak was chewy and more fat than protein. It was an expensive evening but one we all thoroughly enjoyed. A venue to put on the list for special occasions.

Excellent meal and service. Very pricey. The best value was the tasting menu. We got a sampling of mezzes, a salad, 2 large appetizers, 4 mains and a dessert for 4 people. We had plenty of delicious food and the value was better than a la carte. Noise level on the main floor was very high. We could hardly hear the servers and frequently could not hear each other. There was a large and sometimes boisterous group next to us which contributed to the noise level. One nice feature was the large tables so that there was plenty of room for our multiple dishes and glasses etc. We would definitely go again for a special occasion and request seating upstairs which may be quieter.
