The Library Restaurant

Recently attended their 7 course weekend tasting menu. Happily welcomed by the host staff and escorted to our table near the fireplace. The servers were quick to bring out each course and cle

My mother and I had a lovely date night at this restaurant. How it works: each week, this restaurant changes its menu and serves a 7 course meal. Dinner started at 6:00 p.m. and ended at 8:00 p.m. I would suggest arriving about 10 minutes earlier than your table seating time. The process: tickets for this restaurant must be purchased online. It was an easy process using my credit card. After purchasing the tickets, I immediately received my receipt via email. When we arrived at the restaurant, we were already on the guest list. We did not have to show our tickets at the door. The location: I was a bit disappointed with the location of the restaurant, as it's located inside of a hotel (I should have done a little bit more investigating beforehand, as I imagined it would be in an heritage building, or old library...) I believe the restaurant seats about 75 people. It's a nice atmosphere, with a fire place in the center of the restaurant. The food: the quality and taste of the food was very good. However, the portions are very small. This is more of a "tasting" than a full meal. The presentation was lovely. We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived at our table and there was a small glass of champagne. The service: we had excellent service. The process is very organized as they serve everyone the same plate at the same time. How to dress: I would say that this restaurant is more upscale than casual. I would recommend this restaurant to ADULTS that are looking for a nice night out. I do not feel that this is a "child friendly" restaurant.

We did the 11-course Titanic Tasting Menu and it was great. Casual fine dining indeed. The ambiance was pretty chill and relaxing by the fireplace. The food was small portions as expected but we thoroughly enjoyed all of them. The servers were quick to serve and clear out plates in between courses. I would compare the tasting menus to Winterlicious or Summerlicious in Toronto minus the parking fee and hefty "tip". I'm happy to drive to Midland for this gem.
