🍑 NEW BURRATA FEATURE available this weekend while quantities last*

A little sweet, a little salty, and perfect for late summer.

Creamy burrata paired with honeyed Ontario peaches, prosciutto, bitter greens, toasted hazelnuts, basil-infused olive oil and balsamic reduction.

Fresh, bright and beautifully balanced—the sweetness of the peaches and balsamic plays against the salty prosciutto and creamy burrata, while the bitter greens and toasted hazelnuts bring it all together.

A seasonal feature while those beautiful Ontario peaches are at their best. 🌿🍑

A little something for the table ✨

Start the evening with a few of our favourites — crispy cauliflower, goat cheese fritters, house-cut fries, and whipped feta finished with hot honey. Made for sharing… although we won’t judge if you don’t. 😉

Good food, good company, and a table full of appetizers. 🤍

Humboldt Calamari 🦑

A Berkshire classic since day one, and one of our most requested appetizers year-round—especially on warm summer evenings.

Tender Humboldt calamari, sourced from the cold Pacific waters, is known for its naturally sweet flavour and meaty texture. Unlike smaller squid, Humboldt calamari offers a heartier bite that stays incredibly tender when prepared properly.

Lightly breaded and fried until perfectly crisp, it’s served over our house-made roasted red pepper aioli, alongside a fresh arugula and shaved fennel salad, and finished with preserved lemon for a bright, citrusy finish that balances every bite.

Crispy. Fresh. Bright.
A timeless favourite that keeps guests coming back, season after season.

An original since day one. 🥜🍫

Our Peanut Butter Pie has been on the menu since we opened our doors in October 2019, and after all these years, it’s still one of our most requested desserts.

Made from scratch with a light, whipped peanut butter filling, a rich layer of dark chocolate ganache, finished with warm chocolate drizzle, honey roasted peanuts, fresh whipped cream, and seasonal garnishes.

Some classics never need changing. ❤️

A friendly reminder to our wonderful guests ✨

We are starting to see the area getting busier as the weather starts to improve day to day! reservations are starting to fill up quickly, with many guests now booking 1–2 weeks in advance. While we always do our best to accommodate everyone, we can no longer guarantee specific time slots without a reservation.

To avoid disappointment, we strongly encourage you to book ahead, especially if you have a preferred day or time in mind. We are already nearing full capacity over the next few days.

We have also received many questions about our patio. While we’re excited for it to open, it is not quite ready yet. We’ll be sure to announce it as soon as it’s completed and ready to welcome guests!

Thank you for your continued support—we can’t wait to see you soon! 🍽️

Pre-Summer Takeout 🌿☀️

As we gear up for Summer 2026, we know how nice it is to have a little flexibility—especially when it comes to enjoying great food from the comfort of home.

For the next few weeks, we’ll be offering takeout Tuesday–Friday, now through June 19th.

A couple things to keep in mind:
• Limited spots available each night as we’re balancing dine-in service
• We recommend planning ahead and calling the day of to secure your order
• Phone lines open daily at 12PM for both reservations and takeout. When we are full, we are full. We only take what we know we can handle to avoid wait times.

Looking forward to cooking for you—whether it’s in-house or at home 🤍
