    Really good meal and overall experience. Service was very friendly and professional. Finally found a restaurant in this country that understands basic etiquete rules like waiting for the whole table to finish eating before starting to clear the table. Will definitely come back

    Another wonderful dinner at Fabrica! The salmon was outstanding and the special of the evening. Scallops on pasta was one of our favourite pastas that we have had there. Dereck and Peter our servers always friendly and efficient! Fabrica has always been our favourite place to dine for many years! We especially love the outdoor terrace!

    The food was not up to usual standards. There were raw onions on my Tagine, and my son’s pasta was far more spicy than it was advertised to be. He was unable to finish it as it burned his mouth.

    We had dinner Sunday night for our one year anniversary and couldn’t stop raving about our experience. The service was prompt and so friendly, food was out of this world and they really went out of their way to make not on the menu mocktails for my husband. Can’t wait to go back !

    The gnocchi was pedestrian at best with little to no sauce. The ribeye was salty and full of fat; not a great cut. Our waiter didn’t follow up our mains until it was too late and we weren’t enjoying the ribeye. Overall not impressed with the food quality considering this restaurant’s reputation. Very disappointing.

    While not the first time to be shunted about as a sinlge dinner this was my most recent experience. I get that it's a busy place but I have had dinner at the bar before with much better results. Perhaps there has been a loss of staff a the end of the summer.

    Our waiter did not seem very customer focused- his explanation of the daily specials wasn’t very enthusiastic. He didn’t really seem to know much about the offering other than the menu had changed recently and the specials are a mix and match of old and new menu. He didn’t even ask if we wanted bread of which we observed being offered to every other table by a different staff. The experience was underwhelming- we had higher expectations.

    Our meal was wonderful. We started with an heirloom tomato salad with strachitella. The tomato was fresh, firm and bursting with flavor which was enhanced by the house made cheese and dressing. The bone in veal was moist and tender and covered in delicious marinara and a perfect amount of mozzarella. It was also huge and could easily feed two people. The roasted chicken breast was the star of the evening, full of flavor and incredibly tender. The decor is romantic and rustically elegant. Our servers were both attentive, friendly and professional. A perfect dining experience.

    Food quality was surprisingly low, someone is purchasing low quality ingredients - ribeye was meh for $90 and the Caesar was low quality and warm. Not how a proper Caesar should be presented at this quality level of restaurant. Atmosphere was very nice! We had server confusion on who was waiting our table, Server forgot our apps also then apps came after the main course and we’re still billed and we’re burnt - just tacky to do something like that. I have no issue spending $350 for 2 people but the food quality and service does NOT align with the price point. The Mill Cafe makes better quality food and has better service - you guys need to STEP UP your game!
