My husband and I live in Parkdale and have always wanted to eat at Lardon since it opened last March. First impression of the restaurant is that it's very cozy and quaint. I loved that seating was limited and intimate (definitely recommend reservations!)...made it feel like we were celebrating a special occasion. The wine list is short, sweet, and unpretentious. We ordered the poached lobster as an appetizer to share, beef bourguignon, and rainbow trout. When the food came, my husband and I were both oddly silent as it everything was so delicious we hardly had time to chat other than with the occasional "yum." Our server was very attentive and came by every so often to check up on us. All in all, we thought Lardon was a 5 out of 5. Now that we have tried it, we are hooked!
