An exceptional experience from start to finish! From the moment we arrived, the entire team made my parents and me feel genuinely welcome. A special mention to our server, William, who was incredibly attentive and enthusiastic, taking the time to walk us through each dish with care and passion. He was truly excited each time! 🤣
I had been wanting to treat my mom to a truly special dinner for her birthday, and choosing Five Sails and their tasting menu turned out to be the perfect decision, exceeding my expecatations. The food was outstanding, thoughtful, and beautifully executed. My only regret was not opting for the wine pairing, which I’ll absolutely be doing next time.
Chef Alex elevated the evening even further by inviting us into the kitchen, giving us a glimpse behind the scenes and offering a refreshing palate-cleansing bite. That personal touch made the night feel even more meaningful.
All in all, it was a memorable and heartfelt dining experience. Will definitely be returning for future special occasions :)

What an amazing Christmas eve experience. Every dish showcased the ingredients in a beautiful way. Nothing was decorative and each element on the dish added to creating harmony without any part being overpowering. The softness of the honey glazed truffle brioche, followed by the umami explosion of the califlower egg custard topped with crab and ikura, then the deep flavour of the lobster bisque paired with the smokey and softness of seared Hokkaido scallops with egg jelly inside for a touch of richness, shifting to a refreshing veal and fricase salad with tuna mayo sauce inspired by a classic Italian dish, then landing with the main course of perfectly cooked proteins paired with rich sauces and buttery sweet veggetables, and finally rounding out the meal with a play of textures in the dessert. It was a lot of food and we didn't feel it was too greasy by the end -hats off to the balance of the plates and the food journey. The drinks selection had a large range of festive cocktails with the option to make any of them a mocktail. They also have a good range of wines to choose from. I was happy to be able to have a demi-sec Champagne as this is less of a popular choice.
Our server, Martina, was lovely and provided us with impeccable service throughout. Her warm and friendly personality added an extra festive twinkle in our experiemce. The sommalier also went out of his way to grab a bottle of the Beaujoulais from their sister restaurant from downstairs for us. We really appreciate your efforts in giving us such great service.
Then, of course, the view! Nothing beats having an excellent food adventure with loved ones looking at an expansive ocean view lite with twinkling lights of the North Shore. We were lucky to also get the private room and was able to enjoy the ambience to the fullest.
Thank you to the entire Five Sails team for making our night so special and memorable~ we will definitely be back and recommend to everyone we know. No wonder you are one of the top 5 restaurants in Canada.

I've done the tasting menu a couple of times at Five Sails, always an incredible experience! Amazing view, spectacular service, and the menu is always inventive.
I particularly enjoyed the most recent tasting menu this November. I liked the touch of putting the inspiration vegetable on the table before each serving! Chef Alex Kim has outdone himself with this one.
Kei really did an exceptional job with the sommelier signature pairing this time as well, they were all very unique and interesting to match the course, as well as tasting amazing.
Can't forget Martina! She has served me both times and did an exceptional job of explaining the courses and zipping in and out as needed. What a lovely person!
Thank you for the exceptional experience, and can't wait for the next menu!
