Blackhorn Steakhouse

An undiscovered secret of Scarborough is this tucked away restaurant at Warden and Ellesmere! I was invited by a friend once and that's how I got introduced to this restaurant. Family run, very hospital and friendly environment.
Food review: for appetizer, we had the most DELICIOUS bread sticks, coated with cheese and garlic. It was warm, crispy just the right touch and to die for! This was followed by the main course, which consisted of the blackened trout was absolutely delicious and filling! The fish was cooked just to the right tenderness. The steak with blue cheese sauce was absolutely superb! We munched it down in no time! The dessert was Italian theme, tartufo, raspberry in the center and chocolate exterior. Very rich and decadent. Overall, we had a fantastic meal here and more people need to try their food out!
Another visit: main course was the rack of lamb - wow delicious (I compare it to lamb I've eaten in New Zealand!), Followed by tiramisu cheesecake dessert (tastes more like cheesecake than tiramisu but nice to have a different texture)
Improvement: the decor was a bit dated; Salad was non-descript.
Villaggio Ristorante

Service was excellent (though, the staff could use more training on wearing masks properly). The boar pasta was delicious but the portion size felt small for an adult. The risotto was undercooked so the rice was much firmer. The seafood that it was accompanied by was delicious. Lastly, the bread was not anything special so I hope you offer it for free or much cheaper price in the future. The olive paste was delicious.
A neat little museum that has got an indoor and outdoor component. 2021 pricing $7 per adult. Takes you through the way of life of the local Indigenous population once here. Very friendly staff. Well maintained. It is got a cute gift shop as well. Next to the museum is a beautiful little lake that I highly also recommend stopping by if you are visiting this museum! A neat spot in Midland for sure!
