    Atmosphere of the restaurant is wonderful and reception members were good but our server were bit disappointed. (Guess we all have good or bad day…). Overall our dishes were good and hope next visit to have little more positive of server.

    Really wanted to like this place in the former great Bon Vie space but was very disappointed in the loud and tacky atmosphere … more nightclub than restaurant. It doesn’t feel like they know what they want to be …. Mediterranean (hardly), high-end (just the prices not the food or service), restaurant (not when the bar dominates the space). Sadly we will not be back.

    Had a bar server who must hate her job. We had to ask if it was Happy Hour and her response was ‘Yes, cocktails are half off’. No mention of food specials, but we heard another server telling people about them. Then we asked if we could purchase a gift card from the bar & we were told ‘Yes, but you can go do it from the hostess stand’. I expect more from a Cameron Mitchell restaurant. We had drinks & left.

    My first time going. I took a couple of employees from work. Service was excellent. One of my employees has special dietary restrictions and they were very accommodating. Started with hummus and charred octopus. Octopus very tender and flavorful. Hummus has great balance of flavors. And the pita was fluffy and soft. I ordered the mezza platter with beef tenderloin. It was cooked to a perfect medium rare and the meat was tender enough to melt in my mouth. I enjoyed the hummus that was served with it as well. There was a flavor in the accompanying salad that didn't necessarily agree with my palate (I think it was the mint) but that's just a personal preference and it didn't take away from the rest of the meal. We finished off with the blueberry tart and olive oil cake. Both were good and not overly sweet like a lot of desserts. I preferred the blueberry but I think my employees preferred the olive oil cake. Overall a very pleasant experience. I would definitely come back to try more things on the menu.

    Waitress was great, attentive and quick. Thanks, Nicole. Food was just average and definitely not worth the price. The hummus was good, the chicken was not dry, but altogether bland and I had to ask for my pumpkin seeds it was supposed to come with. The calamari came on a bed of straight mayonnaise and wasn't very good at all. The gin mocktail was good, not too bitter and not too sweet. The venue itself was cute, but really loud. Probably will not be back
