Why 12? Well, why not? It's getting a score of 10, with 2 bonus marks.
- Signature Menu Item: Food
STIR Burger, Seafood Fettuccine, Stone Oven Pizza, Hunter Schnitzel - Signature Menu Item: Drink
There's not one single item. What STIR has done is provide a wealth of options for their clients, which include:
32 Beer taps, 65 different wines and complex cocktails - Describe In Three Words
Ok, ok, we know it's not three words. But it's a cool story:
STIR's approach to this unique restaurant was to challenge themselves by asking "What more could you want from a restaurant?" It's far from a conceited stance. Rather, they strive to provide a memorable, exciting and top quality experience consistently for each client. - Seating Capacity
180 - Type of Food Served
Modern classics with a twist, including gourmet burgers, stone oven pizzas, steak, seafood, chicken, and the constantly increasing in popularity shared plates - Chef's Bio in One Sentence

Yes/Yes - Price Range/Category
Mid-to-high priced - Name Origin Story
They threw their previous concepts together in hopes of finding something that stood out...you could say they put everything in a pot and "stirred" it up. Funny enough, that's exactly what they did and hence STIR came out. - Type of Crowd/Clientele
From the young to established professionals to the mature crowd, their audience is diverse in search of great food, service and atmosphere that gives a downtown feel without the hefty price tag. It's a great choice for date nights, special occasions and days you don't want to cook....so, every day, if you're like the Modern Mississauga team.
