New, revamped Canoe restaurant

jeffk · 05-15-2018, 01:18 PM

We dropped in on formal opening day and liked the new look. The food was good with one gripe. There is a pork bite appetizer and when we ordered it the bites were mostly fat. We were told it is the cut of meat, which turns out to be a pork belly which is VERY fatty. Some people like that. We didn't. They were tasty, just don't like the fat. We mentioned it to the waitress and she seemed very interested in how she should inform people as to the nature of the appetizer. I consider it a personal taste issue to be aware of, not an error on Canoe's part.

Prices are probably up a bit but how much I am not really sure. It never was a cheap place to eat.

All in all we enjoyed our visit very much.

I have been a huge fan of Canoe for a long time. The renovations look great but it is not for me. The atmosphere that kept me returning is gone. Oh well. Good luck Canoe.

I was never a fan of Canoe the 3 or 4 times I had been there so maybe it's time for me to give it a try again.
