Latitude 44 Bistro

We were the first ones to arrive on a Saturday night. The atmosphere was nice and felt like a bistro. The service was a little underwhelming. Had to ask for utensils for our main course and drinks were slow. The food was decent but some of the dishes could use a little more thought put into them. The deep fried meatballs, while mostly tasted good, were a little too salty and hard to eat because the sausage got really dense when deep fried. The outer crust was really hard to cut into and when trying to stab it with a fork, the meatball would go flying. The fried spaghetti was a good thought, but was really really hard to eat because the noodles got really chewy. Also, not sure who's idea it was to put balsamic vinegar on the plate under the cast iron where it cannot be enjoyed. Kind of a faux pas to do that to balsamic vinegar. The apple crumble cheesecake shouldn't have been called a crumble when there was no crumble to be found. There was an apple sauce on the cheesecake though. Same with the Rum cake. A rum cake is soaked in a rum sauce so that it is fully saturated. The rum cake was only partly wet on the outside and dry on the inside. Drinks were really good though.

The service was very friendly and the food was so delicious! The party I was with especially loved the poutine appetizer. All of the cocktails we ordered were great as well. For my entree I got the lemon risotto and it was sooo good. I got even more than I expected, and it made for great leftovers. All the desserts were so good as well! The night we were there they were offering awesome specials, including duck breast which was really tasty according to the members of my party who ordered it.

Hmm.. let’s see. We had a group of 9. We ordered our drinks first thing and it took 15 minutes for us to even get them. After that we had ordered our food. It took an hour and half to get our food. We ordered a seafood dish which cost $28. We only received 1 scallop, no clams were in our dish and half of our mussels weren’t even opened yet. Very disappointed especially when I had informed the waitress about it she was extremely rude. The bison meal was absolutely disgusting because it was covered in a basil paste that overloaded the plate. Totally not worth your money! The waitress didn’t even offer a certain percentage off our meal. Definitely will not recommend this place or even try to come back!
