Please be aware that the YMCA has decided to debit member's accounts arbitrarily for their membership. They are supposed to send out a notice via mail at least 2 months in advance that your membership is up for renewal and to come in and fill out another application. This morning I find out they went into my account without my authorization and took out two payments totalling over $115. I call up and they tell me it is a system problem, some renewals were missed and some members are being charged the full fee and you have to come in and sort it out. No apology and they do not care that this happened. This is outrageous and wrong and no one can afford to have money taken out their account on a whim.

I expected more from a restaurant that claims to offer high quality cuisine. The food did not justify the price or reputation. The service was attentive and courteous and Alex our server was truly a gem. Kudos to the mixologist as my espresso martini was superb! However, the food quality did not match the service level. Much of the food was lacking in flavour and freshness. The salmon was cooked perfectly but lacked flavour and did come with a tasty risotto. Surprisingly 1 sprig of asparagus and 1 broccoli tree very strange. The burger patty was generous in size but lacked any type of seasoning, flavour or juiciness. Fries were good but cold. The salad appeared lovely at first glance but underneath were hidden many wilted and yellowing leaves my friend had to keeping picking out continously. There was barely any dressing and it was very difficult for her to enjoy eating. When we complained about the salad, they offered to comp the salad but she would have to pay for the salmon ordered with it. Even though the dish was clearly inedible and of subpar standard. Eventually they agreed to comp the full dish. I sympathize with the industry that is dealing with very slim profit margins, but sending out a dish of such poor quality shows a lack of respect for the customer and for the food. This suggests the chef is either incompetent, indifferent or very overworked. A good chef would take pride in their work, strive to create delicious and satisfying dishes and value the true quality of food. A good chef would never serve a dish that is not cooked properly, seasoned well or presented perfectly. Very disappointed and underwhelmed by my experience.

I decided to try out in The Path and I must say I was impressed with the quality of their food. The Sushi Salmon bowl was delicious and the ingredients were fresh. Service was fast and friendly. I would definitely recommend this place for a quick and tasty meal.
