"Excellent food! Great atmosphere."

I don't throw excellent around very often when talking about food, but Peppercorns deserves it. A colleague recommended this out of the way restaurant and it was well worth the visit.
The dining room was cozy with intimate lighting and no loud music. The service was exceptional; the waiter was attentive, knowledgeable and polite. I was delighted to see only Italian dishes on the menu, no chicken fingers or club sandwiches here.
I ordered the dinner special, flat iron steak with vegetarian lasagna and fresh vegetables, and enjoyed one of the best steaks that I have ever had.
It was prepared as requested and perfectly. The house peppercorn sauce was very flavorful and complemented the dish.
The waiter listed the desserts in such a way that you would want to sample each one. In the end I settled on the panacotta, which was delicious.
The portions are a good size and the value is, for lack of a better word, excellent. If you are in the Airdrie area, give Peppercorns a try. You will be glad that you did.
