Enver's - Puslinch

What happened? We'd been for Mother's Day and had been really happy but now not so much. Tired lettuce. Cold plates for the mains. Touch and go service. Too far out of the way for such disappointment.

Three of us went for a mother's day meal on Friday that did not disappoint. I had the Nicaraguan ribs, the others day the ribeye, and lamb. Big portions, although more veg. would have been nice. Excellent wine selection. Delicious spring deserts, and in-house made ice cream. We'll be going back for sure.

Went for dinner with another couple. Service was good, food ok (limited menu works when something leaps at you) prices slightly high. Found that the wind selection was very good (try the Tempranillo). The expresso was not an expresso (kinda a watery black coffee). Would I go back, sure, but I would not go out of my way.

We have frequented Envers many times in the past and have always considered it 5-star in food and service. But maybe it was the fact that it was a slow Thursday evening but the service was excruciatingly slow, to almost non-existent. 3.5 hours! We ate in 15 minutes. Yes they knew they blew it, gave us free desserts but by that time we just wanted to go home and my guests and I will remember the service not the freebies. The hors d'oeuvre plate was excellent albeit the mussels were tiny. My own meal, supposedly short ribs, was more a poor beef shank given resuscitation. I appreciate my wife's short ribs even more! I truly hope this was an OFF night for them.

Envers provides an ecclectic embiance with great food flair and a wonderful wine list. Such a warm location downstairs to host larger groups. Always accommodating to our needs!
