Finally took the Mrs. to Via Allegro. She's been bothering for months to take her there. Large place with two wooden burning ovens as it's main showcase. Decor is kind of 80's but kept clean. We had tuna tartar and a short looking pasta with duck, Delicious.

The large filet Chilean Sea bass was perfectly cooked and the ribs were to die for. Service was impeccable with an eye to all details. It was the first time I have ever seen a wine list that looked like the 10 commandments block. Huge book like wine list, I even saw a wine (600 ml) called Masseto going for $15,000.

Chose the Chablis 1er cru for $140 which I wasn't very impressed as it lacked balance and too acidity.

With tip and tax $375.00.

Worth the money.

Via Allegro was on my "to do" for the longest time since there isn't much choice when you're malling at Sherway Gardens. But then the Star did a review a couple years ago and it was raked. Mediocre food and bad service along with high prices. That made me gunshy.

The seafood was mediocre but service was top notch.

No win or lose. I guess all depends on their moods.
 
I recently read that Chris Mazzo (of Ornge fame) entertained representatives of Augusta Westland there. If its good enough for his prolific luxury tastes, surely it must be good enough for us plebes.
