The cozy main-floor lounge serves casual comfort food. The top-level restaurant serves more elaborate dishes—perhaps, maple-rosemary braised short rib with Saskatoon berry sauce or grilled Arctic char with beetroot risotto—in a modern dining room with floor-to-ceiling windows, wood-plank walls, and dark-wood tables. The nightly, three-course, "trust me" menu is a good value for adventurous eaters who don't mind letting the chef decide what's for dinner. There's a nice selection of reasonably priced wines (by the glass or bottle), cocktails, and craft and draft beers.

Bring a healthy appetite and a love for delicious slow-roasted meat when you visit this authentic Brazilian house of barbecue. With rodizio-style dining, you pay one price and skewers of perfectly roasted steaming meat are carried to your table and sliced onto your plate until you tell them to stop. Delicious hot cheese buns and more than a dozen salads and side dishes can be enjoyed alongside the meat dishes. A wide variety of drinks, including cocktails, craft beer, wine and non-alcoholic beverages, are also on the menu.
