There have been a number of restaurants that have closed in my neighbourhood. At least in one particular corner where it was always a friendly place for people in the hood to gather at night with a glass of wine and chat. It was sad as they have been here forever. But recently one of my favorites reopened with a new name! Wagyu Bar & Grill. And as other neighbours, like us we decided to give it a try.The place is now brighter with lovely murals on the wall like this. A long bar is on one side an
The place is now brighter with lovely murals on the wall like this. A long bar is on one side and seating is spacious and comfy.
They offer a value for money dinner set menu along with a la carte. Menu is in English and Chinese. They also have a concise drink menu. A la carte offerings come in the form of pasta, pizza, burgers and steak. Basic Western fair.
We decided to just order a la carte as we weren't too interested in the starters. Thus, we started with drinks. I ordered a Chocolate Milkshake ($58) as boyfriend ordered a beer as he saw there were happy hour deals. The milkshake, served a in cute glass was really good. Not too thick but loads of chocolate flavour.
I had the Wagyu Bolognese ($165) as I recall from the previous owner, this was really good. And it still is. But portions are just more generous now! I didn't expect such a hearty portion. Pasta was a dente and there was so much sauce! Definitely not stingy on it at all. The sauce was rich and meaty. A good dose of freshly shaved Parmesan was added.
Boyfriend had the Wagyu Burger ($165) and requested it be medium rare. It came with garlic fries, a salad, tzatziki sauce and ketchup for dipping. The burger was a double patty with melty chedder, lettuce and a fried egg. The patty was juicy and nicely seasoned. But the best was the fries! These were outrageously good. Very crisp and well seasoned. Perfect shoe string fries.
Service is friendly and the place is a lot more casual and welcoming than before. Will definitely be back to check out their lunch set menu.
