The view from the table was very nice....watch the sun set and see the fields where the fruits and vegetables are grown. The desserts were amazing, had the espresso creme brulee and the apple pie cheesecake.

We enjoyed a lovely pre-theatre brunch at Cluny. Food was excellent, service was great. Perfect brunch spot. Noise level maybe a little high as it is a big open space but we had a wonderful Experience anyway.

This is not my first time dining here, and it certainly won’t be my last. I come here for almost every special occasion, and it never disappoints. The experience is always exceptional—from the impeccable service to the beautifully crafted dishes. Every detail is thoughtfully executed, making it a true fine dining experience. Of course, quality comes at a price, but it’s well worth it for the outstanding food and atmosphere. Highly recommend!

I took my 17 year old twins to the restaurant as a March Break treat and we were really happy with our meal. We didn't order appetizers but probably would if we return as the main dish portions were perfectly sized to allow for this and dessert. One son ordered the burger, the other the steak frites and I had the beef kabob. Beautifully presented and the combination of flavours was perfect. We all ordered dessert which was light and the perfect size for the end of the meal. I had coffee which was quite strong and more like an espresso in size and taste. The ambience was perfect and despite the number of people dining, not too loud. I'd definitely recommend it for a date night, or a get together with friends or family.

Everyone (even the carnivore in the group) loved the meal. And ensured the celiac member was fully protected. Bang bang broccoli is a must. Love the lettuce wraps. Loved the cheesecake dessert. And perhaps my favourite thing was the mezcal cocktail with green garnish (name forgotten)- not sweet, great flavour. Excellent service
