The positive reviews for this place made me excited to try this place but I won’t be back and I wouldn’t recommend. We made reservations for 6pm tonight to celebrate my mom’s birthday. Our server was kind and provided good recommendations for food. However it took approximately 20 minutes for someone to greet our table and take drink orders. The appetizers were the best part of the evening and I’m glad we ordered appetizers since it took approximately 1.5 hours to get our main dishes. It’s confusing to me how the restaurant was 1/3 full but we didn’t get to start eating our mains until after 8pm. I understand that they make everything in house but with 5 other parties in the entire restaurant I don’t understand the wait time. The food was also pretty average and lacklustre given the hefty price, hence the reason for this review. I’ve been to other fine dining restaurants with the food made in house and it’s been quicker service and amazing food. I would recommend anyone try Juniper in Paris, Ontario or Shy’s Place or Avanti in Oshawa for a better experience. Sure it was nice that they brought out a cannoli with a candle for my mom, but at this point we were pretty disappointed with the service and just wanted to leave.

Food, food quality, service were all top-notch. Environment was visually pleasing. However, the background music volume was too high for those of us with hearing aids. Twice requested volume to be reduced and it was but it eventually crept up to the higher level. All in all, it was a very pleasing luncheon with friends. Highly recommend Kamoosh for those who enjoy Italian cooking.

The welcoming of the atmosphere at Kamoosh is incomparable to any other restaurant. There service is outstanding and all of their staff, including Koosh go above and beyond to make sure you are able to eat anything on the menu. Having multiple food allergies, the chefs and staff went above and beyond, even sitting at the table and going through the menu with us to figure out what can be made to suit the needs of any and multiple allergies.

Nice food and service. The food took A very long time to come to the table . But the place WAY TOO NOISY. I was yelling at the person across the table. Really not good for me. Also the cold air coming through the front door was a problem and will be freezing to sit in the door path when it really gets cold!

We LOVE Kamoosh! The food is SUBMLIME, Shaq is always an 11/10 server, so friendly, personal, and goes the extra mile to make sure every need is tended to, including special extras. We came this visit to celebrate our engagement and were surprised with a glass of champagne to start off our evening. The people at Kamoosh are what keeps us coming back just as much as the incredible food, cocktails, and ambiance.

Reservation was for 7. Food arrived at 9. No explanation other than the kitchen was slow. Very noisy space. Quite disappointing.

My husband, daughters family and I loved our time. Service was very friendly and fast, everything was delicious and hot. We will be going back again very soon Thanks

Had a great experience; food is always fresh and prepared on sight. They get all their ingredients locally and prepare to order - as a result, the wait may take bit but definitely worth it.

We came out of town for a business meeting with our clients & found the best spot in Watertown! What a hidden gem, this is the place with high attention to detail, quality delicious food, great beautiful atmosphere, and the staff were attentive caring heart centric people. We really enjoyed our lunch here! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a great spot for an excellent dining experience.
It was a very nice dinner, waiter was fantastic. Gave great service and options. Food was overall delicious.

Food was excellent as usual, but service was disappointing. We arrived for our 7:15 booking and ordered drinks and appetizers which arrived promptly. We then waited until after 9pm for our entres, while others who arrived later got theirs. They didn't appear to be busier than normal, so not sure what the issue was. No explanation was offered for the long wait.

food and service still great, as was our previous visit music feels a little loud. noticed the same thing on previous visit, people need to speak a bit louder and as a result it feels noisy when busy.

We dropped in to Kamoosh Bistro tonight for dinner. We were pleasantly surprised. Shaq our waiter recommended some dishes and they were delicious. From cocktails, to starters to our main meal. Everything was presented beautifully and tasted wonderful. We will return for another amazing meal to try something different another night.
