“Amazing atmosphere! Madi makes fabulous wines and Cody’s beers are great! To top it all off the food is fantastic! If you haven’t been here yet…what are you waiting for?!”

“We all arrived hungry to a shockingly full parking lot. As an ex-industry person I can say we got our table touched 20 times here which was nice, but actually as a diner maybe a bit too much especially if the table touches didn't result in the proper service. It was a dark and stormy spring Saturday night, we arrived at 630, a half hour early for our reservation but were seated promptly. It took zero minutes for who appeared to be the bartender to ask us for our drink orders, while she remembered the wine and bourbon orders she forgot my hot tea even after we had a whole conversation about it. When our actual waitress arrived I had to reorder the tea and the timing on the warm up had about already passed. That being said I often order hot tea before dinner and it was pretty awesome that the hot water came in a separate metal mini kettle along with the tiniest tea cup in North America. It reminded me of Europe actually the tea cup was sooo small, maybe 4oz but the kettle had another 24oz of super hot water for me which kept me very happy throughout the meal.

I didn't get my honey with it though even though I ordered it twice with two people now. I was about to have to ask for the honey when the bartender ran it over before I could but then... no spoon. Not a spoon anywhere on the table actually, I gave up and used my fork for the night in the tea. When we were approached and my 80+yr old mother began to order our mains the waitress cut her off and left mid order bc she said the kitchen was calling her. Huge no-no as far as Im concerned, this alone looses them one star forget about the tea.

When she came back we were all happy to learn we all got salads and sides with our entrees, I ordered the schnitzel which was our entire impetus for the visit as I consider myself somewhat of a schnitzel connoisseur. My gf tried to sub mushrooms for her side but when it arrived the waitress had added it as an add'l side and gave her zucchini even though she didn't order it and I witnessed them having a conversation about it.

Our salads all came drowning in dressing with one rock hard tomato, at first I thought it was a full reddish, I love dressing but this was a lot even for me; the dressing was actually really good but strongly recommend ordering dressing on the side at this restaurant. I also got the rice which was very good. The schnitzel came in two pieces with more salad, kind of, just arugula and tomatoes not mentioned on the menu now no dressing haha.

Definitely one of the greasiest schnitzels I've had in all my days which was even more noticeable after I gobbled both of them down with a pool of oil left over on my plate. After being served our entrees we got 7 table touches from various people within 5 minutes. This was a lot, too much as we were finally all just wanting to eat. I didn't ever mention the late tea, missing spoon or drowning salad.

Overall everyone was lovely, the restaurant was nice and (dad had no complaints so) we were happy with our overall experience even though they seemed to be having a giant other party in the other room the whole time; unfortunately I just can't give them 5 stars”

“Love love love this place. Quirky, fun, amazing service, and creative food! Genuinely, they deserve a Michelin star”

“The cocktails, food and our server Megan were all terrific. The Spicy Tuna on Crunchy Rice and the Drunken Noodles were fabulous! Highly recommended.”

“Always a friendly neighbourhood visit. And the food, delicious and creative. One of a handful of great spots to dine out in Poughkeepsie NY. A Definite Recommend”

“The desserts we had were exceptionally good. This was the best part of the meal. The scallop crudo was small, boring and expensive. The half-chicken main course was very good, and was enough to split between 2 people, but required at least one of them to be good at disassembling a chicken. The atmosphere was very loud. The place is toddler friendly, which is great if you have a toddler, and not so great if you do not. The restaurant is very popular, so reservations are a must. If you are hip and cool, you will probably enjoy it more than I did. It was not bad, but IMO it is a bit over-rated, as the only truly standout dishes we had were the desserts, and they were fantastic. Also, the bread was very very good. The drinks were OK. The price was a bit too high for what were served, in general. Mostly, it was just too loud for eating, for me. I am glad we tried it. 4 stars because- why not? I do not run down a decent restaurant with excellent service that is trying very hard just because it does not suit me.”

“The Bocuse Restaurant offers an excellent French dining experience with beautifully presented dishes and attentive service. The student chefs and staff are professional, and the quality of the food is impressive. While there may be occasional small delays as part of the learning environment, the overall experience is outstanding. It’s a great place for a special meal, and I would definitely recommend it.”

“Great steaks”

“Hello Nayoba and Sobir! Sorry it took me so long to write a review. We are all still impressed of high-quality food. We ordered Chebureki, Uzbek Pilov, Manti, all different types of salads, Chiken shish Kabobs, Tiramisu. Thank you for Kompot! The food is well made, healthy and VERY DELICIOUS! Thank you for your Hospitality and your dedication!”

“Really? It took me this long to give Stockade Tavern a review? That’s crazy, given how important a fixture it’s been for its entire 16 year tenure. From day 1, Paul and Jenny and their rotating crew of amazing bartenders and bar backs (you guys! 🙏🙏) made it cool to visit Uptown. Keep rocking it for another 16 please!!”

“Amazing staff,great food. Can’t wait to go back”

“Visited Garvan’s today for the first time for a late lunch in the Pub. We started with Mexican Street Carrots. So delicious! My husband had the traditional Irish breakfast and I had the lamb stew. Both meals were excellent. Wish we could have had dessert, but we were so stuffed. The staff was friendly and very welcoming. We’re looking forward to visiting again.”

“Staff and food was great.”

“This has become a beloved date night spot in my household and a place we credit with getting us so into sherry (and vermouth!) that we’re basically preaching to all our friends about it. If you’re worried about how expensive it is - which it is, no doubt! - at least stop in for happy hour and try the drinks. Last night was actually the first time I’ve had a full meal here and it really felt like a special occasion. I thought the bacalao was perfection and the tapas were yummy too - the custard dessert made me scream the first time I tried it (in a good way).
It’s definitely become more busy and more scene-y, but it still feels welcoming and intimate. From what I can tell everyone who works here is so passionate about the food and drinks they serve. Their service has always been so warm, fun, attentive, and knowledgeable. Shout out to you guys for helping us make any random night feel special! I’ve never been to Spain, but I’m lucky to live in Kingston and have spots like this to return to. Bonus points for having a dj last night who played great music and not too loud to have dinner with!”

“Simply stated - one of the best dining experiences of my life. The creativity and execution is off the charts. Great atmosphere. Perfect service. But the food….well I’ll just let you see for yourself. Incredible.”

“Excellent food and great service. Very accommodating and friendly. Relaxing atmosphere. We would give 100 stars if possible! Highly recommend.”

“Amazing wine selection (Beer and Cicer too) and unique foods. Their Cheese plate is scrumptious. The owners are so lovely and the atmosphere is chic. It's a great place to gather with a few friends.”

“100% recommend novellas! We just recently celebrated our wedding there and we had the best. Time. They made the entire wedding process so easy for us, with menu items, decor, timelines, everything. You name it, they did it! Bryce, Chloe, and their entire team were so helpful and kind. So willing to step up to plate, and the food was DELICIOUS. Super affordable and convenient as well, and they answered any and every question they had. Our special day was made even better thanks to the wonderful work of their staff and the beautiful scenery of their venue. My guests and family were overjoyed and welcomed happily by all of them, and I’m incredibly grateful! This place has become like family, and we’ll be back as often as we can now because of their professionalism and kind hospitality! Thank you guys!!”

“A huge thank you to Bobby and his team at the Eastdale location for accommodating our special request this morning for our Soldier! There’s nothing like bringing a taste of his favorite place to him on his graduation from Basic Training! God bless you 🇺🇸”

“Eclectic menu! I so loved my elderflower violette gin cocktail. I had the salmon it was delicious and the sunset was amazing from my out door table. Very romantic atmosphere. My new favorite in town.”

“Had the fried oyster mushrooms with vegan aioli (instead of the honey mustard, potato salad and corn muffin with vegan butter (which they double checked for me). So good and half left over. Warm and friendly service, gets very full and very loud so go early if you want a quieter dining experience. Updated from previous review on 2026-08-01”

“Steam fish meal is the best and carrot juice”
