“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.”

“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. Great flavours, healthier ingredients and brightly colourful presentations make for visual and taste sensations!”

“My wife and I just ate at the Ancaster Monfort Grill House twice this weekend! They were superb! The Lamb Shishlick was incredible…the sides and pita was some of the best I’ve ever had! Our waitress was absolutely amazing and so friendly , we wish we didn’t live 18 hours away because we would eat here very often! Signed Steve and Marnie of Garden Steele Away!”

“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!”

“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 wanted to commend the employees that were working the drive-thru today. I drove through with my wife and dog in the car. The employee asked if our dog likes Timbits, which he does, and I told the employee yes. The employees then gave us a bag of four plain Timbits for our dog! I would love to see more of this friendly kind of interaction at Tim Hortons! I did not catch the employees names, but they deserve a raise or award at least!”

“We tried Judge & Jury for the first time, and what a great experience! The fish and chips were absolutely amazing, perfectly cooked and delicious. The service was just as good as the food!
Our server, Veronica, was absolutely wonderful! She was super cheerful, friendly, and attentive, and her positive attitude made the whole experience even more enjoyable. It’s refreshing to have someone who genuinely seems to love what they do and makes you feel so welcome.
After the absolutely horrible experience we had at Wild Wings, Veronica and the team at Judge & Jury completely turned our night around! They restored our faith in going out for a nice meal, and Veronica’s cheerful personality was the icing on the cake. Sometimes, great service can make all the difference, and she certainly did that for us!
We left happy, satisfied, and already talking about coming back.
Thank you, Veronica, for turning our night around! We’ll definitely be back! 🐟🍟❤”

And as luck would have it, peameal was on the menu. A short detour and sweet in-restaurant experience later, we are both enjoying 10/10 peameal sammies! Each has a soft, buttered bun, perfectly toasted. A generous number of peameal slices! We added sharp cheddar and grilled onions. Literally perfect — no notes. We continue on our journey, now with great satisfaction.”

“Absolutely loved my experience at Poke Works! ❤ The food was fresh and delicious, but what really stood out to me was how thoughtful and accommodating the staff were regarding my shellfish allergy.
They took the time to be mindful of my allergy, answer my questions, and make sure I felt comfortable and safe with my meal. That level of care genuinely means so much, especially when dining out with a food allergy.
Thank you, Poke Works, for not only serving amazing food but for making me feel heard, cared for, and welcomed. I truly appreciate the extra attention and will definitely be coming back! 🥰🍣❤”

“I didn’t get the chance to try the food today, but I still wanted to leave a review because of the kindness I experienced here. I was in the area for my driving test, but unfortunately my car battery died and I couldn’t take my exam. My phone was also dead, and I had nobody to call. I was completely panicked, crying and shaking because I felt so alone and helpless. I know it may not sound like a big situation, but in that moment, I genuinely didn’t know what to do. I came in and asked if I could charge my phone, and someone from the kitchen noticed I wasn’t okay and came to check on me. I explained what happened, and he simply said, “I’ll help you.” He went out of his way to help me when I really needed it. I was so overwhelmed that I don’t think I properly thanked him, but I’m truly so grateful. Sometimes a small act of kindness from a stranger can mean more than they realize. I’ll definitely be coming back soon to actually try the food! ❤️ Thank you so much for your kindness and for helping me when I needed it most.”

“this is probably my millionth review for beertown, but i have to keep doing it!!! most restaurants don't check the reservation notes, but as soon as i walked in and told the hostess that i had a reservation, she made sure the check the screen and congratulated us on our anniversary! service was prompt and drinks were refilled without having to be asked. our server maddie (maddy, madi??) i'm so sorry i hope i at least have one right iteration there; she was fantastic and even gave us free dessert with a candle to celebrate us. beertown is my all time favourite restaurant, and the burlington location knocks it out of the park every time. thank you for making this day so special for us!”

“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 have been coming to Ben Thanh for more than a decade, even before we moved to Burlington.
The food and service have always been great. With prices rising so much over the past decade, we really appreciate how Ben Thanh has managed to keep their prices reasonable without compromising on food quality, portion sizes, or service. They also offer a great variety of dishes.
It’s wonderful to see a local business maintaining such high standards over the years. We are always happy to support them and wish them continued success!”

“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.”

“A good ol' public house with the food you would expect from one. Lots of typical British style cooked to perfection and a good selection of alcohols. Lovely atmosphere both indoors and on the patio, and friendly staff. Would love to give this place 5 stars, but our tables fries were overcooked and hard to get through, but genuinely enjoyed everything else. Got the featured club sandwich (grilled chicken, portebello mushrooms, roasted red peppers, melted brie, lettuce and tomato) and it was incredible. Will definitely be returning next time we're in the city”
Juice • $$
“I’ve chosen Total cleanse for the last 13 years as a reliable way to clean up my diet and give myself some motivation to get back on track with healthy eating. I always lose a few pounds and feel really energized and clear headed during and afterwards. My favourite is the Creamy Cashew at end of the day, never has a drink felt more satiating and worth the wait. Juices are always well packaged, consistently fresh and it is so convenient to get them delivered. Would definitely recommend.”

“Our first time in this restaurant was about two months before we were asked to isolate. Dinner was perfect! Plate presentation was great and the food was right to the point. Since then we returned for a second and third time. Service and food only gets better! Everything tastes fresh and well cooked. The owners are very nice and the restaurant is immaculate. This is the place to find yourself eating. If you have a chance, you can stop by and grab dinner since they are open during this time for take out.”

“Bombay's Chutney has been my go to indian restaurant for the last seven years. I have never had bad service or a bad meal. My husband adores the hot beef vindaloo. The kids and I always order mild because we don't have a high heat tolerance. Always amazing. I have had some excellent date nights and family meals there over the years. The takeout is also awesome! But we are really looking forward to coming back when indoor/patio dining is allowed. Highly recommend this amazing place. Wonderful staff and owners and absolutely amazing food. All the stars!”

“Once again, I went to firehouse subs in Burlington and I got the hero. It was by far the best sub I’ve ever had.. not only was it worth the money I think total was 20 bucks but I couldn’t go to the store. Buy those ingredients and put that on for that price.. the amount of meat that was on the the perfectly toasted bun. I don’t work for them. I don’t know any of them. I’m just giving you a real opinion.. if you’ve never had the firehouse subs, I highly recommend it like you’ll never go to Mr. sub or subway ever again. even with those coupons that they put out buy a sub get us 6 inch free or buy two foot-long’s get one free. I can promise you if you put all that product from the three subs on one month it’s still won’t equal what you get from firehouse.. sorry Subway. Also, when I was waiting in line to make my order, I watch them slice the meat themselves. Who does that firehouse does. anyways, I gave my opinion and I standby it. Gotta try the subs.. Jay.”

“Absolutely loved my experience at Poke Works! ❤ The food was fresh and delicious, but what really stood out to me was how thoughtful and accommodating the staff were regarding my shellfish allergy.
They took the time to be mindful of my allergy, answer my questions, and make sure I felt comfortable and safe with my meal. That level of care genuinely means so much, especially when dining out with a food allergy.
Thank you, Poke Works, for not only serving amazing food but for making me feel heard, cared for, and welcomed. I truly appreciate the extra attention and will definitely be coming back! 🥰🍣❤”

“I’ve been coming to Tribeca for a few months now, usually on weekends before work, and it has easily become one of my favourite coffee shops and definitely one of my top 3 in Burlington. The baristas are always so kind, welcoming, and quick with orders, and the overall atmosphere is amazing. The shop itself is really cozy and cute, which makes it such a nice place to stop by. My personal favourites are the iced banana bread matcha latte and the iced banana bread latte, both are definitely worth trying! I also love how they keep up with trends and are always coming out with creative drinks, like the dot cake latte. There’s always something new and interesting to try, and the quality has been consistently good every time I’ve visited. Definitely one of my go-to coffee shops in Burlington and a place I’ll keep coming back to!”
