chicken taquitos playfully injected with bites of flaming hot Cheetos , keep the worldly tasting adventure lighthearted .
For lighter fare , the black sesame seared tuna topped with pea purée and ponzu sauce showcases the restaurant ’ s delicate touch with fresh ingredients . Brussels sprouts , caramelized and coated in Caesar dressing , shaved parmesan and bacon deliciously riff on a classic salad .
Locally sourced favourites complement the menu , with Colosimo ’ s coffee , Nucci ’ s gelato , and craft beers featured prominently . The bar offers an inventive cocktail list , including twists on classic drinks like a rosemary-torched Caesar .
The formula is not revelatory , but Commonwealth Kitchen and Bar is shining brightly downtown as a gathering place that bridges cultures and celebrates diversity .

and Meadowood Drive , Grizzly Goose opened in September , taking over the former site of longtime Greek restaurant , Bellamy ’ s . The open-concept dining room features a mix of simple wooden tables , hightop stools , and a pool table that invites casual play and conversations .
The menu is a playful mix of classic comfort fare and upscale pub grub . Shareable appetizers like quesadillas , chicken wings , and nachos hit all the right notes , while the burgers and sandwiches shine with contemporary toppings that elevate the experience .
The vegan burger features a delicious zucchini and carrot patty topped with blueberry barbecue sauce , sautéed mushrooms , and fresh greens . Meanwhile , the open steak sandwich layers charred sirloin with creamy fior di latte , chimichurri , and a tangle of arugula for flavourful bites .
Fish and chips , shepherd ’ s pie , and the beloved souvlaki platter ( a Bellamy ’ s favorite ) are all popular picks . Other mains , like the braised pork belly , offer refined simplicity . Glazed with soy and served with roasted cabbage , apple , arugula , and mashed potatoes , it ’ s comforting yet elegant .
The cabbage rolls are a true comfort food classic — six rice-filled rolls blanketed in marinara sauce and topped with dollops of sour cream . It ’ s a hearty dish perfect for sharing .
Pizzas round out the menu , and of the few available options , The Don is a standout . With its Mediterranean veggie medley and crispy thin crust , it ’ s a pizza that tastes as if it came straight from Italy .
Grizzly Goose strikes the perfect balance of comfort and creativity , offering elevated pub fare in a welcoming , vibrant setting . With its great food and unpretentious charm , it ’ s quickly becoming a local favourite . 36 ciao ! / dec / jan / two thousand twenty-four
