“The Cherry House never disappoints. Michael and his team deliver impeccable service in an elegant yet comfortable setting—fine dining without the pretense. We started with a crisp Caesar salad (the only one I've ever had that I can say compete with my father's - even Dad agreed) and a beautifully balanced Caprese salad with the freshest basil, both savoury and well-executed. Even the bread and butter were exceptionally phenomenal—a simple yet telling detail of the kitchen’s commitment to quality. For mains, the halibut was perfectly tender, the rack of lamb with scallops rich and flavourful, and the filet mignon flawlessly cooked with a peppercorn sauce that was absolute perfection. Each dish showcased precision and top-quality ingredients, all complemented by a bold, complex 2013 Brunello Monticiano. A silky crème brûlée and expertly crafted Spanish coffees was the ultimate indulgence to finish this exceptional meal. Consistently outstanding—sophisticated, polished, and always worth returning to.”

“Outstanding food, atmosphere and service. The ceviche starter was out of this world! The interesting ingredients set this restaurant apart from the mostly mediocre usual pub style offerings out there.

“Busy NY eve, called and ordered and got a call back that the driver was in the lobby. A bit early but ok. We got the wrong order. They immediately called and said our right order was on its way.
Showed up 10 minutes later and let us keep the wrong order too a they’d have to throw it out. We have a potluck tomorrow so it won’t go to waste.
Mistakes happen. So then customer service is about what happens to make sure you have a good experience after that, and they nailed it.”

“We cannot say enough about our experience at Pepe and Lela’s tonight. We almost cancelled because of the snow but thankfully we didn’t because it was one of the best meals we have had in a very long time. From start to finish, everything was perfect. The food is all house-made, authentic and absolutely delicious. Our server, Amanda was literally the best. She was friendly, engaging, funny, knowledgeable and so accommodating. It is so refreshing to go out for a meal and enjoy every minute of the entire experience. Everyone should try this gem- you won’t be disappointed.”

“First time and Loved everything!! The owner is a beautiful person inside and out, shared so much about her Turkish culture and foods. You have to try the Lahmacun with the hit of sumac, lemon and parsley. WOW!! Flavour explosion! Soujuk is like the tastier version of pepperoni! The pizza boat - thin crust like you’ve never seen. Delicious! Kunefe dessert is a must; with their Turkish ice cream! There are bracelets for donation, proceeds going to a Turkish orphanage, and so much good. Thank you for such a wonderful afternoon bite out with my husband!!”

“We had one of the best dinners we’ve ever eaten at this restaurant, and we are foodies so that is saying something. The service was amazing, everyone was so friendly and accommodating. The atmosphere and ambiance was intimate and classy. But let’s talk about the FOOD! Ugh! I splurged and tried the certified A5 Kobe, and it did not disappoint! It was incredibly buttery, tender, and perfectly cooked to temp, I couldn’t get enough. We’ve been to Japan and had A5 Kobe and Wagyu, and this was right up top with the cuts we had there. The sides were nothing short of phenomenal! We also had the sushi assortment with maki, nigiri and sashimi and it was mouth watering. I wish we lived right next door to this place, but I guess it’s better for my wallet that we don’t. If you’re considering eating here, DO IT!”

“Dined here for the first time last night and it was absolutely the best meal I’ve had in a very long time! Started with caprese salad and risotto balls which were perfect in every way. The fresh pesto with the caprese was a delicious and fresh twist. Risotto balls were stuffed and cooked beautifully and served on a bed of the best tomato sauce, I couldn’t bare to leave any on the plate. My partner had the beef tenderloin which made me envious but my pork schnitzel with mushroom demi, mashed potato’s and veggies couldn’t have been any better if they tried. A small and intimate atmosphere and the waitresses are very friendly and attentive in all the right ways. This is my new favourite spot, a true gem. Will be back many more times to try everything else on the menu!”

“Whoever has been making my grilled chicken bacon deluxe sandwiches on Saturdays lately, I LOVE YOU. It's been so long since I've asked for my order and not been at least slightly disappointed, to the point where I stopped getting it, but they've been perfect these past few weeks. I take them out of the box and they look like they belong in a commercial. The crisp of the bacon? Perfect. The amount of strips? Perfect. The chicken? Perfect. The lettuce? Perfect. The ratio of everything on the sandwich is PERFECT.
You have reignited my love for my favorite McDonald's sandwich. Keep being you, friend.”

“A Hidden Gem in Burlington – Sushi Masayuki
It was a pleasant surprise to discover Sushi Masayuki, an authentic Japanese restaurant tucked away in Burlington. I had the pleasure of enjoying their Omakase dinner ($140), which included an impressive 16 beautifully crafted dishes, each showcasing incredible attention to detail and freshness.
The quality of the fish was outstanding—delicate, flavourful, and expertly prepared. Every plate was a visual delight, artfully presented and thoughtfully balanced. I also opted for the sake flight ($15), which was a perfect pairing and added an extra dimension to the dining experience.
What truly set the evening apart was the personal and exceptional service. The staff made the experience feel warm and intimate, taking time to explain each dish and engage with guests in a genuine way.
Sushi Masayuki is a true gem for lovers of Japanese cuisine and a must-visit for anyone in the area looking for an elevated dining experience. I’ll definitely be returning!”

“Beautiful restaurant. Awesome food. Flavor is spot on. Ribeye medium rare cooked perfectly. Great chimichurri sauce! Brussel sprouts side is very tasty. Truffle mashed unfortunately had no truffle flavor at all. Grilled calamari was cooked well and good flavoring on the sauces. Music is abit too loud we could barely hear the waiter and the choice of music don’t really suit the ambiance of the place (it went from dance to hip hop and then country music anything but dinner music) Service was great. Portion size was good.”

“Everything about this place is amazing. The people who work here, the cooks, the atmosphere (when indoor dining is allowed), and of course the food. The waitress who works here, I don’t know her name, but she is absolutely amazing. She is just THE sweetest person you’ll ever meet. She restores my faith in humanity everytime I come here. The food is always incredible, always tasty, fresh and full of flavour. There’s a handful of vegan options, the onion bhajis are my absolute favourite and I have the utmost faith and trust in Prince Of India when it comes to the knowledge of food restrictions, they ask how spicy you want your dish (mild, medium or spicy) and they really do give great sized portions. You even get a discount on your meal when you dine in, which is such a nice bonus. I recommend Prince Of India to everyone I talk to, quite literally. If you’re looking for authentic food, and even further, authentic people, this is the place.”

I also really liked that their tea is served in a pot rather than a single cup. I didn't need to ask for refills as often, and it could be shared with the whole table.
Their battered haddock is delicious but I also recommend trying out the haggis! The prices may be a bit higher compared to other lunch spots, but it is very much worth the price.”

“Hands down one of the best experiences I’ve had at turtle jacks! Kyra was taking care of us tonight. Even though she said it was her first day; she was phenomenal! Great customer service, and ensured we had everything we needed. We tried the signature wings as per her recommendation, 10/10!”
Korean • $$
“Love this place. As a korean, I love that I can go to a good korean place in town now. I’ve tried many things on the menu and love all of them.
Some of my favourites are the sweet chilly k-chicken, spicy pork hotplate, LA short ribs, seafood pancake, soontofu soup and soybean paste soup.
If you visit this place, definitely take a leap try new items out, they will pleasantly surprise you.
Don’t just have the basic things like dumplings and spring rolls (although they are still really good), be adventurous!”

“Montford Grill on Barton Street and Kenilworth in the Pavilion is the Best Shawarma I've ever had. I will drive from Brantford to this Montford just to get their Shawarma salad and it is the best and well worth the drive.”

“Had an amazing time at Kudos Sushi! Jun took care of us and made sure everything was perfect from start to finish. The sushi was great as always, but what really surprised us were the desserts — we tried the banana pudding and the tiramisu, and both were honestly incredible. Didn’t expect to find such good desserts at a sushi spot. Definitely coming back.”

“The beef kabab at Samir Kabab House is a well-executed example of Middle Eastern comfort food. The kababs are expertly seasoned, combining a medley of warm spices that enhance the natural richness of the beef. Grilled to perfection, they feature a satisfying smoky char on the outside while remaining juicy and tender within.
Texture-wise, the kababs strike a nice balance between being hearty yet not overly dense, indicating fresh, high-quality meat. They pair beautifully with the accompanying naan, which is soft and fresh, and the creamy garlic sauce adds an extra layer of flavor with its bold, tangy notes.
While the kababs deliver on flavor and preparation, the presentation could be slightly more refined to match the high-quality taste. Still, they’re a standout choice for anyone craving authentic, satisfying kababs.”

“I recently ordered takeout from Tirth at the Pizza Hut on 695 Plains Road, and I was thoroughly impressed by the customer service! Tirth made the ordering process seamless and was incredibly friendly throughout. He provided helpful recommendations and ensured my order was accurate.
When I arrived to pick up my food, everything was ready and packaged perfectly. Tirth greeted me with a warm smile, making the experience even more pleasant. It’s rare to encounter such dedication to customer satisfaction, especially with takeout.
If you’re looking for delicious pizza and outstanding service.”

“The entire evening was beautiful. The place was busy but all the staff had smiles on their faces and very polite. The food was fantastic - it was fresh and very tasty. The decorations were very nice, the music was at a pleasant level where you could listen but still converse. The service was fast and efficient. Our server was incredible, and easy to converse with. The washrooms were clean and having mouthwash dispenser is a very thoughtful detail to have. Overall, the service was top notch. Will return soon!”

“A Hidden Gem in Burlington – Sushi Masayuki
It was a pleasant surprise to discover Sushi Masayuki, an authentic Japanese restaurant tucked away in Burlington. I had the pleasure of enjoying their Omakase dinner ($140), which included an impressive 16 beautifully crafted dishes, each showcasing incredible attention to detail and freshness.
The quality of the fish was outstanding—delicate, flavourful, and expertly prepared. Every plate was a visual delight, artfully presented and thoughtfully balanced. I also opted for the sake flight ($15), which was a perfect pairing and added an extra dimension to the dining experience.
What truly set the evening apart was the personal and exceptional service. The staff made the experience feel warm and intimate, taking time to explain each dish and engage with guests in a genuine way.
Sushi Masayuki is a true gem for lovers of Japanese cuisine and a must-visit for anyone in the area looking for an elevated dining experience. I’ll definitely be returning!”

“It was one of the best experiences we have had in Canada. We were taken care by CJ and he was absolutely brilliant.his attention to detail and checking with my daughter for her choice of meal was really nice. His hospitality deserves more than 5 stars. My wife and daughter loved the crab cakes and the Ravioli. Will definitely come back to enjoy more of the food and hospitality.”

It was a great time, the food was outstanding, the drinks were a good price with a great taste, and our service was a delight. I have to especially mention the Guest Experience Manager, she was the best we have all ever came across, so kind and nice ensuring we had an amazing time. Would recommend to anyone.”

“Amazing food, exceptionally caring and attentive staff. The people here go out of there way to make sure customers are happy, comfortable and taken care of. Tonight I ordered through uber eats and accidently canceled the order, UE. Charged a 95% cancelation fee to my CC without telling me.. when I noticed the charge on my card, I spoke to Uber eats who refused to refund the "cancelation fee", and would not place a reorder without me paying again (double charge) for the original order. I ended up driving to the restaurant and told them of the situation and they made sure I was taken care of. They fufulied my order without knowing if UE would give them the money they are owed. I absolutely recommend this place and have ordered from them many times, every single time the food is incredible. If you're looking for a nice night out, or take out food, you can't go wrong with August 8 Burlington!”

“We just had a wonderful dinner in this amazing place ,I've been ordering from them for a long time ... The owner is keeping the food and quality at the same standards as his opening day ....Coco is such a pleasant person to talk to also she is always attentive and careful .Never had a glass empty ,always comes and ask if we are happy with the food if we need anything......very good customer service. We are driving 20 min to this restaurant but I would do it all the time and the reason is as I said customer service impeccable, accommodation being vegan lots of restaurants found hard ways to accommodate us ....and on top of everything....the positive energy that flows is just above everyone's expectations.”

“One night this past week, while staying at the Waterfront Hotel, I walked around the area looking for an inexpensive, fast restaurant to buy dinner to bring back to my room. I saw someone go into Sandwich Station so I eventually ended up there too. Glad I did! Very pleasant man at the counter, the portobello mushroom sandwich was delicious, so was the tomato and basil soup (which came with garlic bread), my husband loved the meatball sandwich, said it was one of the best ones he’s had. The prices were very reasonable, especially for the location, and as a vegetarian I was pleased to see several interesting options available. Also, there are lots of tables if you choose to eat there.”

“We went here on a Saturday afternoon for lunch- there were 7 of us at the table arriving in 3 vehicles- myself in one, my son in another and his wife in the third. We were not aware we had to pay to park but it was absolutely ridiculous- we paid $15 and my son and his wife each $20 for a total of $55!!! The food was good and service was good but because of that we won’t be back. Someone- either the restaurant or the hotel has to find another way to deal with this.”
