3 out of 4 people found this review helpful. Overall nice looking, reasonably-priced bistro-style restaurant with not-so-good food.

Pros: Appealing menu, nice furniture, good concept. Very tasty key lime tart.

Cons: Reluctant service, slightly bitter salad greens, badly dispersed dressing, needs salt, needs pepper, needs a more motivated chef.

I do not recommend this place.

2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. We had very high expectations for Cantine, but were disappointed today. This was my first visit. The fresh decor suggested a very classy bistro, but many of the simple touches were missing, and the service was pretty bad today. Soups were served without spoons and water was not forthcoming.

We ordered from the prix-fixe Summerlicious lunch menu and the food was very tasty, but the salads were either missing dressing or unevenly dressed. The tilapia and chicken were, however, both delicious.

I would give Cantine another try. It seems they dropped the ball today but have a lot of potential.

I recommend this place.

1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. I first started going to Cantine for brunch on the weekend and loved it. I'd recommend reserving a table if you're aiming for a Saturday or Sunday. Their omelets are great (light and fluffy), and their yoghurt, granola, fruit and honey bowl is a lovely option if you're looking for something on the lighter side.

I had dinner there once in December and was also really impressed with the food. The dinner menu was quite diverse - with interesting takes on a number of classic dishes.

Cantine is a great place to dine with friends, or family. And they have a least one large booth at the back of the restaurant which works well for larger groups (approx 6-8 people).

I recommend this place.
