Went to Ebo at Burnaby Casino last night.

I did not care for it. The food was mediocre at best.
The servers were not very attentive.
The restaurant was 1/4 full, but when people without reservations tried to ask for a seat they said they were fully booked.
$28 menu.

I had the baked mussels as an appy. They were ok. The plate came with rocks as decorations. Now, I am not dumb enough to eat a rock on my plate, but I really didn't appreciate having such things on my plate. My friend took ridiculous pictures of me putting the rocks in my mouth. I wonder if they clean those??

For the main I paid a $12 surcharge to upgrade the 6 oz steak to a 10 oz rib eye. It was a bit tough. I get better cuts of beef from my local butcher. I will not eat steak here ever again. It was edible, but as someone who eats steak at many different restaurants, I have to say that I was not impressed.

For dessert I had the cheesecake. Nothing special. There were little doodads of flavor on the side.

My girlfriend had the mushroom soup, sablefish, and chocolate cake.
The sablefish was perfectly cooked. It tasted wonderful, but it was too small of a piece to have fed me.
She and my other 3 friends did however enjoy this restaurant and I suppose that counts for something.
