Great  Steaks!! 

Six of us recently had the opportunity to get together for a great evening of wine and food at this long standing Yaletown restaurant. To start, we decided to share the following starters: Crab Cakes ($12) with organic salad, chipotle mayonnaise; melt in your mouth Tenderloin Carpaccio ($10); Garlic Prawns ($12), pan seared with lemon garlic butter and garlic bread.  For mains, the three guys in the group had the 16oz Ribeye ($26). We all agreed that these certified Angus beef steaks were packed with flavour and had the perfect amount of marbling. For sides we chose pommes frites, sauteed garlic mushrooms and asparagus. The ladies decided to go with lighter dishes that included a beautifully prepared Halibut dish from the Dine Out Vancouver menu, Grilled Sockeye Salmon ($24) and Stuffed Chicken Breast ($20), herb crusted, stuffed with brie, cherries and pecans. To finish it off we shared a dessert plate presented to us by owner/executive chef Neil Wyles, which included his to die for Gingerbread Pudding.  Described as "buttery goodness" by one of the ladies, it arrived with a trio of homemade ice cream. We all enjoyed the atmosphere, food and great service at this Yaletown eatery and look forward to returning very soon.
