Editorial Review

With a dining room reminiscent of an upscale steakhouse—leather upholstery and all—this elegant Parkdale resto-lounge features a Mediterranean-based menu with a twist. A bianca pizza (brie, pear, walnuts, prosciutto and arugula) and penne with goat cheese and mushrooms in a leek rosé sauce share menu space with more pricey entrées, such as rack of lamb (with a gorgonzola and honey-mustard crust) and seared yellowfin tuna with poached quail eggs. Mains $10–$34.
