I’ll preface this review with: a restaurant with an $89 ribeye dish should not be serving tap water. The cocktail I ordered was disappointing and awfully sweet and thick as syrup. Unfortunately the ribeye we ordered was a tasteless piece of beef and it definitely should not have been recommended medium. At least they took it off our bill and off the table. The only redeeming thing about our dinner were the appetizers and bread.
Parking: There are a lot of homeless in the area.

Went here for my boyfriend’s birthday and was pleasantly surprised with a small coffee with biscuits and chocolate that was offered to us! The food was good but super filling, after only our appetizers we were stuffed and had no room for dinner or even dessert. We ended up taking the food home and it was still good but I wish we could have eaten it there. Overall though it’s beautiful restaurant with a fantastic patio as well.

My boyfriend and I ate at Bonterra for the first time yesterday, and it was easily one of the best dining experiences we’ve ever had before.
We were greeted at the door by our server Shane, and were immediately sat and provided with menus and waters. It was the perfect table for our date night and the atmosphere was absolutely exceptional. The restaurant has a warm and comfortable feeling to it that added to the entire experience. The food and wine were incredible, and Shane was very attentive throughout our entire meal. His service was superb and I cannot recommend Bonterra enough because of it.
In terms of food items, I highly recommend the Lasagnacce and Risi e Bisi (as pictured) for dinner, and the Budino di Cioccolato for dessert if you have a sweet tooth like me.
Can’t wait to return in the summer and dine in on the patio as well!

I booked this place for my birthday dinner with my partner. When I arrived, the host said there was a group table that stayed there for 30 mins longer than expected. He did not want to kick them out. He offered for us to be served at the pizza place next door that they own and offered 10 percent off on the meal with a glass of champagne (not even a bottle I tell you). He also offered this for another birthday group that came.
I think the host should have called us before our reso to tell us that a table was not going to be available since the group was there for 30 mins longer.
Our server at the pizza place was very nice and kind.
For a birthday reservation I expected better service from the host and I wanted to fully experience the atmosphere of a nice restaurant with my partner rather than going to a pizza place that had deli vibes. For a highly reviewed restaurant I expected so much better. Seriously.
Had an absolutely unreal experience here, the servers recommendations were fantastic, service was beyond exceptional, and hats off to the chefs. You simply must try this place.

Our evening at Bonterra was wonderful.
Sitting on the back patio in late September until the sun goes down, next to wood fires and overhead heaters was perfect.
The food was spot on and our service by Tatyana from start to finish was impeccable.
Absolutely top notch. 5 stars.

Can never go wrong choosing Bonterra for a dinner out with the wife, family, or company event. The food is unbelievable, especially the meatballs. But you can’t go wrong choosing anything on the menu. They have a great wine selection and one of the most comforting patios in town.
Parking: Park behind the building and register your licence plate for free at the hostess desk.
Kid-friendliness: Took our 4 month their and they were very accommodating. Was able to walk out back to the parking lot or to the patio when we needed to calm her down.
Bonterra excelled in every aspect. Incredible atmosphere, great food, and an exceptional wait staff. The food is very well portioned (something I usually don’t mention) as both the calamari and spaghetti alla carbonara were loaded with protein and I truly felt I got my money’s worth from these dishes. My one knock is the cocktail selection and price, as 6 total drinks for my party out-priced both our combined food selections. But, they were adequate. Overall I highly recommend the calamari salad to share as it’s a great interpretation of the dish and well worth the price. Do yourself a favour and check this place out!
