Ingleside

We had a lovely dinner at Ingleside! Classy chic atmosphere perfect for a dates or special occasion. We had a friendly waiter Ariel that made us feel at home.

My favorite was the Venison Tenderloin, it was tender, juicy and melted in my mouth. The smokiness hit me first, and after a while I tasted the rich gaminess that brought me to the woods in Europe.

Highly recommend, will come back!

We had a lovely dinner with Ingleside and was attended to very well by Ariel!

For starters, we had the Tuna Tartare Tartelette. Very fresh tuna paired with mushroom shoyu, kombu salt and topped with Kaluga Queen caviar. It was very indulgent and flavour packed.

We also tried the sourdough bread paired with the seasonal butter made from smoked splitpeas. SUPER NICE - i loved the slightly nutty and charred taste of the butter. Very smooth and not fatty.

For mains, I had the venison tenderloin as recommended by Ariel. We had this rare and it was the best choice. It was so tender and cut through like butter, so rare for venision meat. Flavour packed and the vinagre from the puree cut through the meat to not have any game-y aftertaste.

We also had the lampino iberico chuletero and this was so delicious.. the pork next level melted in our mouths. So heavenly and perfectly smoked. I loved the marsala sauce, it was nutty and sweet and complemented the savoury notes of the pork.

The vibe of Ingleside is very warm, ambient lighting perfect for date nights or a get-together with friends.

Ingleside is a hidden gem! The Fresh Oyster with sake-ponzu jelly was a refreshing start, and the Maitake & Pork dish had an amazing balance of flavors and textures. The Tajima Wagyu Picanha was incredibly tender and packed with flavor. Definitely worth a visit!

Came here for the lunch set! The unique flavours from fermentation/smoking were quite a fun culinary experience.

🍅 Heirloom Tomatoes
This dish unexpectedly stole the show for me, the smoked stracciatelle was addictive and the fresh mint and basil cut through the creaminess. Fresh tomatoes were so sweet, fermented tomatoes were juicy and a burst of flavour- the contrast created a wonderful combination.

🐙 Grilled Octopus
Grilled to perfection, not too tough or tender. Smoked pepper squid garum puree had an interesting flavour profile, I thought it resembled curry powder.

🍯 Honey & Yoghurt
Greek yoghurt ice cream was creamy, the flowers on top were surprisingly flavourful. Lacto fermented strawberry honey was yummy!

Had our Anniversary lunch here not just for the occasional classy atmosphere but standout dishes.

Tomatoes can taste this good!? 🍅

Chicken leg 🥵
Tender is the flesh, generous is the meat 🍖

Tajima MBS 6-7 Wagyu Picanha

A true indulgence, the Wagyu Picanha was a masterclass in simplicity and execution. The shio koji marinade deepened the meat’s natural umami, allowing its marbling to shine. Each bite was intensely flavorful, perfectly paired with slow-roasted banana shallots that added a caramelized sweetness.
