I've usually been disappointed with trendy bistro style eateries in Toronto so I tend to avoid them. This time I had no choice. I was surprised to see that David Adjey is now the Exec Chef, so this bumped my expectations up a bit. The service - prompt but still a tad rookiesh. Atmosphere - trendy king west, as the decor. Food - Cooked to perfection, but a few more ounces to my piece of fish would have been nice. I see what there trying to do, where less is more and I like it, but perhaps they went a little too far. I felt this time that less was a little too less.
