Decided to do a nice dinner date and was pleasantly surprised. The atmosphere was perfect, the cocktails were amazing, the food was delicious, and the service was incredible. Elise was our server and she was very kind. Highly recommend.

What was supposed to be a nice anniversary dinner turned into a disaster! I called to see if I could put some money on my credit card toward the couple's anniversary dinner and was able to do so and was told that they would be sure to let the couple know who it was from. When the couple arrived at the restaurant, they ordered their drinks and then their meal. Other people came in and ordered their meals and were served. 45 minutes later, the couple were told that there was a computer issue and their ordered was not placed with the kitchen. When they did receive their meals, the steak was charcoal black on the outside and cold on the inside. The other meal order was incorrect for a part of it and had to be reordered. They informed the waitress that one person was severely allergic to eggs and yet they were served aoli! The person with the allergy also checked the menu on the website before going, to choose a meal that would be appropriate. When they got to the restaurant, none on the items on the website menu were offered on the menu at the restaurant. After all of this, they were compensated by not having to pay for their appetizer. They paid their bill and left. They were never informed, nor was the prepaid amount ever taken off of their dinner bill. The couple was quite surprised to learn of this after they got home which is approximately 40 minutes from the restaurant. When they called back to inquire about the situation, they were told that they would have to come back to the restaurant the next day, so they drove back the next day and instead of putting a return amount on the couple's credit card for the prepaid amount, they were given the amount in cash because the person at the restaurant told them that they didn't know how to do a return on the card. What was supposed to be a lovely anniversary experience, was anything but. This was the first and last time at this restaurant for at least one person in the couple and for my husband and myself, the couple that was trying to surprise them with a nice gift, we will not be dining there either. I can also say that they will tell everyone that they know about their experience.

Went for my bday last night at 5:45. When we were seated the server Charlotte I think her name was (long straight red hair, tattoos, thin lips.), asked if it was a special occasion, I said my bday (even though I had already told them that when I made the reservation almost a week in advance) didn't receive our food until about 7:00!, then when I went to the washroom at 7:20 I saw our server and asked for another drink, she told me that there would be no time for another drink because apparently we were required to leave our table at 7:30 for the next reservation, when I got back to my table I told my family, who was still in the middle of eating our dinner, that I was told that we have to be out of there by 7:30, the mood was immediately spoiled and they felt extremely rushed to finish there meals, we also didn't have enough time to even order dessert. I felt our whole dinner experience was ruined at this time, as well as my bday vibe. When we were paying our server was just standing over my mom making her feel obligated and uncomfortable when it came to tipping. I then nicely asked our server why she asked if it was a special occasion when she seated us if they don't even do anything, she extremely rudely said "excuse me, I don't understand the question.." I repeated myself and then she replied with " idk incase we have to put a candle in something." She didn't say happy bday, thank u or anything. I have been looking forward to going there for dinner since 2022 when I went for the first time where my experience was amazing, I've been raving about fume since then had been looking forward to going back ever since then, until my experience last night. I don't think I would plan to go back. We paid alot for our meal and didn't even get a chance to enjoy it. Extremely disappointed and dissatisfied. Bill was almost $400.00 and there was only 5 drinks

Be informed on the “chef special” especially the lamb rack, undercooked, bland flavour, and way overpriced. Waitress was nice but the host was moody and looked like he wanted a fight with someone. Don’t go out of your way to visit this place.

Went for the BUW burger. So good! Love this place. Fresh crispy fries. Cut the burger in half and ate the other half stone cold out of the fridge 12 hours later. Still delicious! Thank you Fume!

Everyone I know says they love this place so I was really disappointed to find it did not live up to the hype. To start the guy who sat us had a very weird vibe and almost seemed annoyed that more customers were coming in. But then the service itself was really slow. Our table of four sat down and ordered as soon as they asked, but the tables who came in after us and sat down after we already ordered somehow got their food first. The food itself was good, but really overpriced and not worth it. I gave the place a second chance in case they were just having a bad night and the service was better but the food was still just okay for its high price point.
Not our first visit, not our last. Food is above average, well prepared and plated. Some dishes have a fusion mix to them but not enough to make them unrecognizable. We've never been disappointed.

Amazing place. Delicious food, best cocktails in Brantford, high quality service and great cozy atmosphere. I’ll definitely back. Highly recommend.
Simply terrible. Not one of the four dishes were good. The service was horrible unless you enjoy waiting two hours for your meal. The steak was the worst I have ever had.

We had a very lovely meal, the food was very delicious! My fave was the starter taco, I should have ordered it for my main! The service was really friendly and very professional. Our server was attentive but not pushy. We asked not to be referred to as ladies and our server apologised, didn't call us ladies again and continued being her professional friendly self. We had really lovely experience and the staff were lgbtq+ friendly.
