What a fantastic location for a restaurant. This building was once an old abandoned factory,has now been transformed into a really nice place to dine.The decor is impressively tasteful,old stone walls,20ft.ceilings,original wooden beams and warm,inviting colours.
Our service was good,the food was of equal value although my wife's tuna was cooked to well,instead of just being seared. We enjoyed our meals but it was the environment that will make us return!
When asked by our server if it was a special occasion,I was treated to a very large piece of icecream cake in honor of my Birthday which we both shared,on the house. - Order: Almond crusted goat cheese,salads,warm bread,tuna,ribeye steak,coffee,iced tea,wine.

My family held a large function here about 4 yrs. ago. Their Chef helped us to creativly arrange enough tasty food to accommadate 25-30 friends and still stay within our budget. Everything was handled professionally and courtiously.Our party was a total success and I would recommend anyone to book a party here. They also let us bring in our own cake. We have not been back for some time now but I drive by sometimes to see a packed parking lot which means they havn't changed their passion for success. Great job and thanks again!

Our small group was very impressed with this new location at the Niagara Square. The service was knowledgable and helpful. The staff was so very welcoming we were smiling the whole time.They have cooks in the buffet area that were a real treat. They seemed to be having a great time cooking and serving freshly grilled meats, pizza and golden dumplings.(chinese new year) They were very quick to accommidate our requests as we wanted extra condiments on the side.(It was all brought to our table by one of them!)
All the food available to us was very fresh and tasty. The wide variety of fare was ensured fresh by replacing the trays of food before it started to look tired,not when it was empty,like other buffets. Even if the trays were almost half full,they were replaced with a new tray. Our server Sherree was very smooth in keeping our table clean and our wine glasses full.They have a nice variety of wines too!
Mandarin, in our own back yard! Long overdue.

We buzzed around the Falls looking for a restaurant that caught our eyes,we landed here due to hunger. Parking was a 15 min. fiasco.(which we paid for) I was quite busy and thought "boy it's gonna be SLOW". To my suprise it was just the opposite. We recieved our drinks and APPS. in about 10 mins. Big cheers to the kitchen staff! All our meals were good and never had to ask for anything else,it was promptly anticipated by our sharp server who knew how to "upsell" without being pushy at all.(just a few recommendations is all it should really take)
Now that fact that it was so busy seemed a little too.."hustle &bustle", for quiet conversation at our table.Not a great place to go for an intimate dinner for two. In the end it was sufficial.

As far as "steakhouse" goes, it was generic. Nothing on the menu seemed to really tempt me, so I ordered a striploin. It was a basic strip with frozen veg.and a loaded baked pot. that was a little "long in the tooth". My fellow diners seemed to have no complaints although again, nothing special.
Perhaps a little freshening up of the menu would possibly coax me back.

My wife & I had to try this place due to all the great reviews. We were NOT dissappointed! We shared the "Chef's Table", it was absolutlely PERFECT. I've been making gnocci for years and tried others but this homemade spinach version was fresh,very tasty,perfectly cooked and melted in your mouth.The roasted red pepper cream sauce complimented the dish very well.
Crisp salads,nicely seasoned & cooked meats,properly cooked pastas, this place should be everyone's staple.
We do plan on going back really soon!

What a marvel of a place to enjoy a quick lunch.
(tourist trap)
It boasts an incredible lunch menu selection.
(soup & sandwiches)
The atmosphere is truly a great experience.
(to distract you from pricing)
There are live sharks swimming about!
(so you don't pay attention to the poor service)Overpriced ,terrible food that lacks imagination,servers that can't wait for you to leave cause their shift is ending.She actually did leave,the bartender gave us our bill.
Take a walk through,it's free to see. Don't sit down! - Order: sandwiches,soups,salads,burgers
- Treat yourself

These are by far, the best ribs around Niagara. The come in various sauces that are carefully made to enhance the flavour of the ribs. Always tender & not too smokey,this place is for real rib eaters. If you love to B.B.Q. your own with your own special sauces (like me)you'll still find this place cuts to the chase for quality.
My last visit was a little slow for service,but my expectations were met with another wonderful meal.
A must for sticky finger lovers. - Order: ribs and more ribs,salads,wine ,coffee

Most things were fine,steaks,ribs,drinks,salads.
I honestly went there as a comparison to CANYONCREEK CHOPHOUSE. The "CANYON" wins! Hands down!
As I said, things were fine. The food itself had no flair or much imagination to the menu,yet a far cry from generic. The service was standard "upscale/casual". My party was offered "upsells" that did not compliment any of our entrees.
Our meals were all fine but I now know that garlic mashed potatoes make me "dry heave" in puplic.
Nice wine selection. We all shared 1 dessert,we were full.Besides they are large enough.
If your going to "shell-out" for great steaks, try Canyoncreek. It's classic food ,with a twist!
You will also see the difference in a well trained server that treats you like a guest,not a customer.
I have to admit...the view was incredible. - Order: steaks,ribs,dessert

This place is busy and rightly so. Freshly made selections that could be considered ART. Been there several times,loved it all. If only they had more space. The Chef/Owners seem to really enjoy their business.
