    Warmly greeted by our server Britney, very knowledgeable of the menu, quickly volunteered to offer taste of wine I was considering. Interesting Portuguese wine that matched up nicely with our selection. OK, so started with salmon tartare which didn’t disappoint, beef carpaccio was a hit with a surprising kick of heat! Then we were dazzled by our chefs, Sean & Jason who in addition to being excellent chefs, are extremely personable (we sat at the counter). Must orders: R&D Fried Rice and Iberico Char Sui, complemented each dish exquisitely! Final analysis, very unique presentation of Asian cuisine and best meal of our trip to Toronto, highly recommend!

    We reserved a dinner at Queens Harbour for a celebratory occasion and were blown away by the experience! Aside from being a gorgeous space, the drinks and food were also phenomenal! Our server was more than accommodating and brought an amazing dessert for our celebration complete with sparklers and a message. For drinks we tried their summer special, the Peachy Blinders which was both refreshing and a generous serving. For our main course we ordered the seafood tower which was absolutely delicious! The oysters had a variety and the massive ones were surprisingly flavorful. The fish in all the dishes was extremely fresh and we had an excellent meal!
