Stopped by here for a late lunch. They had all sorts of cuisine, but mainly stuck with Italian.

For drinks got one of their vodka based drinks from their all day happy hour menu. I actually enjoyed it.

For lunch got the croquettes, pepperoni pizza (which was different because it had no tomato sauce, and had potatoes underneath the pepperoni), and the pesto pasta. All great choices (croquettes were a bit too salty though). Would come back again to try the other drinks and food.

This place was in our hotel, Shangri La, in Toronto.

Went here from happy hour (4pm to 6pm), which drinks and dim sum were half price.

We got one order of Hargreaves, and 1 order of some dumpling dish. Both were great.

For drinks doubled down on the Nashi (vodka based, and 2oz pour). Great choice.

FYI didn’t take either picture below.

I’m surprised I haven’t posted about this place. Basically we usually go here for happy hour (Monday to Thursday, from 4:30 to 6:30).

For drinks, I usually get the lychee martini ($8 during happy hour).

For the appetizers themselves, I have to say the pot stickers are really good, and so are the wings. The garlic noodles are good (but some people I was with do not agree). The meatballs are ok, but definitely not as good as the potstickers.
