“This is a truly small town beer store with staff who gets to know you over time.They are respectful to the regulars but draw the line with unruly Folks who are just passing through.I have been going to this beer store for 36 years and i respect the staff. They have been helpful and polite, not like some of customers! If you need Beer, they have a great selection. If you need something special, they will try to bring it in for you.The staff went out of their to ensure my Mother In Law could get Molson Bradoor which she love till the she past. Now that's staff who cares!”
“Agi is pretty much the only contender for decent fine dining in Stouffville. I live five minutes away and have been twice, and will go again. That being said I probably would not drive out of my way if I lived in Markham or further south.
I’ve had the calamari, Brussels sprouts, mussels, ahi tuna, whole sea bass, and seafood linguine. Nothing revolutionary in terms of flavour combinations, but good solid cooking. I’m not trying to damn by faint praise - there are very few fine dining establishments I would make a point of visiting in Toronto these days.
The service is wonderful and the decor lovely, although it is small and does get very loud during full occupancy, so much so that I would avoid going on the weekend. It was much more enjoyable on the Wednesday night when there were only a few other diners.
If you live in Stouffville I would highly suggest giving this restaurant a try.
Update: I went back recently and had a different selection of dishes, all of which I enjoyed more than the ones I had had at the time of the original review. Increased the rating to 5 stars. Judicious ordering is always necessary to have the best experience at a restaurant. This time I had the deep fried goats cheese which was honestly a stand out dish. The elements of the crispy goats cheese, finely sliced, crisp apple, walnut and sauce quantity created a synergistic effect. My boyfriend had the rack of lamb, which was delicious, but the stand out item on the plate was actually the potatoes! Perfectly crisp skin completely surrounded a velvety, almost mashed-consistency mini-potato. I had the octopus special, which was also quite exceptional.”
“Very courteous service. Very prompt service. Fairly well stocked. - A fairly new Beer Store location in town - Kept spotless and easy to walk through. One separate area to drop off empties - then another area to walk through to 'choose your poison'. You pay and then you're done.”
“Bought a bottle of wine from the grocery store. Sadly it was off. They told me to return it to the LCBO. They were accommodating and replaced the bottle for me. Very helpful staff.”
