Table 17Table 17 is a new spot in Riverside that is already packed almost every night of the week. The restaurant is divided into two rooms and features huge mirrors, chalk board wine menus, stunning chandeliers and great food. Make sure to order a side of the fresh cut fries.

I had gone here with a group of friends (6). Not one of us enjoyed our meal.
Steak was chewy like rubber, vegetables were soggy and over cooked, pasta dish was totally flavorless and the desserts were just awful.
Complete waste of money and an evening.

Whatever you do, don't get the lemon tart for dessert. I gave up after one spoonful but my dining companion struggled through this overly sour concoction with a pained look on his face. The hot balls appetizers were great and our meals were fine but this dessert ruined the end of the evening.
The mixed drinks were also expensive.

Was seriously disappointed in this spot after all the hype. A restaurant like this is a splurge for me, but I've had much better meals at the much more affordable Hanoi 3 Seasons just down the street, or at the price comparable Tomi-Kro. White wine was served ice cold and ruined the taste. My girlfriend's striploin was overcooked and my pasta average and sticky. Don't bother.

Good food, terrible service. I mean, totally clueless service. Like here's your meal, see you never - type of service.

Too bad, there is a nice ambiance in there.

The atmosphere is ok. Service was good and attentive. The food was a disappointment. The hot balls were tasteless rice with even more tasteless sauces. The pasta was les than ordinary and clumpy. The duck was oily and very saturated. Not good for my stomach. The wine was great, we brought that. Will not go back.

My partner and I went with a groupon - we were told to mention this when making the reservation. But then we were sat right by the door, in the smaller room with the bar, which was noisier and had ne atmosphere - not a good impression. The service was absolutely terrible. The whole point of groupon is to get people in that wouldn't have necessarily come otherwise, impresss them so that they come back and reccommend you to their friends, etc. Our server ignored us throughout the meal while being very attentive to the 5 person table next to us that were getting more bottles of the wine. Food was ok, but not in any way amazing. The lamb was so rich/oily that it gave me a stomach ache and I couldn't finish it. Agree with Angela above about the hot balls. Will not be going there again.

We made a reservation for Friday night, and called earlier in the week to confirm our reservation. We were told TWICE that we were all set.

When we arrived on Friday night they told us that there was no reservation, and that they could NOT accommodate us, and asked us to leave. Barely an apology, and when we asked for recommendations for another resto in the area (at prime dinner time on a Friday night), he looked bothered and pained to answer.

Apparently even though we confirmed twice, they had mistakenly put our reso in for Saturday night. We absolutely did not book for Sat night because we came from Niagara-on the-Lake for one night only.

Any good restauranteur would have admitted their mistake and made sure that they redeemed themselves with a fabulous meal and great service.
