Amazing! The Pinnacle is simply that. Pinnacle Platter ***** Warm-water sea scallops and gulf shrimp sauteed in a lemon Pernod cream sauce. Accompanied with a smoked salmon-rose overlay on a toasted crouton with Bermuda onions, fresh capers and dill weed. Finished with a Cajun crayfish. $15.95 CDN The Pinnacle Restaurant sits atop the Minolta Tower providing a spectacular view of Niagara Falls. Unfortunately, the food fails to match the view. We had lunch at the retaurant recently. The grilled chicken on foccacia that my companion ordered was tender and delicious, but the hamburger I received was the usual hockey puck style burger one would see in a cafeteria, although with a niced bun and condiments. First of all, the restaurant was not nearly as nice as it looked in the pictures on the website. The staff refused to give us a seat with a good view, so one of us was overlooking a parking lot. Then we were given cheap paper menus that were stained with others' food. Then I had to return the salmon I bought because the rice was overcooked and a complete mushy mess. The smoked chicken gnocci, however, was very good, and I was given that as substitute. the desserts were also fairly good, though the turtle cake tasted like it was just taken out of the freezer. Overall, not worth the $$ and would NOT go back. This place has an excelent view of the falls, its really romantic to have a dinner with the falls, but I think that the food is just average and the service is just below average. |
Went after seeing it was renovated on Restaurant Makeover. Great view of the falls, food was excellent, and service was attentive.
