   My wife and I had a great time on Sunday morning sitting outside in the street. The staff from first stepping in to the restaurant, to the waiter and to the other staff are all outstanding. Our waiter, Pavel, went out of his way to offer suggestions and to show his personality with food and drink mixing and to totally allow us to enjoy ourselves immensely. A real big Thank You is in order for sure.

   I was entertaining family from the UK, who were completely surprised and impressed with service, the food and the patience of our waiter. We were thrilled with the experience. Also was very impressed that an elevator was available to enable my sister (who has an ongoing heart condition) not to have to climb stairs. Your staff were most gracious and patient with us.

   Lovely ambiance and service with well-curated contemporary Canadian dishes. We however found their salad and Atlantic Salmon dish a little too acidic and lacking balance in that regard. Noise level more on the lively side, should be perfect for a gathering of friends, but more careful table selection likely required if going for a date night.

   I don’t usually write reviews, but it’s sad to see that sassafraz has gone down hill. Food wasn’t great, long wait time, seems to be all the servers are new so there was a bit of a struggle there but the manager was exceptional and very professional. Great manager.

    Servers seemed rather inexperienced. Food quality just OK, very heavy with the salt on chicken and tuna. Our avocado was hard, a big no-no! Shouldn't have left the kitchen. Ambience great.

    Our server was great, very helpful and attentive. Food was delicious as were the cocktails and wine. Not sure how the host seats guests, however, we had a table for 4 in the middle, which was cramped. The more spacious booth tables on the side were almost all empty while we were there. And in fact one booth spaciously set for 4 was given to a couple, just didn't make sense and was quite bothered by it, given we had an earlier seating.

    Had gone for a client lunch. Service took a long time and by the time we got our food, it was time to leave as we had another meeting. Also, the food tasted bland. Probably a bad day in kitchen.

    Someone from my party ordered the fish tacos. When the food came, they had instead been shrimp instead of fish. The person eating it had an allergy to shrimp and it's surprising that the staff didn't mention this or ask about food allergies.

    Service and ambiance were fantastic. The food was underwhelming; somewhat bland, not enough sauce on the pasta, aubergine undercooked and lacking flavour. Both coffees ordered were very watered down. Desserts however were absolutely decadent and delicious! Cyril was an excellent waiter and deserves much praise.

    First time back in years. Ambiance and wait staff were terrific. The food however, fell well short of expectations. The wild boar chop was essentially a pork chop that was over cooked and tough (I’ve had wild boar many times and love it…this was NOT wild boar). Salad was just ok. That said, the drinks and service were very good. Won’t likely be back….
