The buffet is always fresh and delicious and the staff continuously keeps the tables clean and drinks topped up. The management team always makes sure you have the best experience . The whole Mandarin team makes this a delightful experience . I would recommend this Mandarin to anyone.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I recently tried Malai Soya Chaap, Paneer Lababdar, and Naan, and everything was absolutely delicious! The malai soya chaap was soft, creamy, and full of flavor. The paneer lababdar had a rich and perfectly spiced gravy — one of the best I’ve had! The naan was soft and fresh, completing the meal beautifully. The portion sizes were good, and the service was friendly. Highly recommend this place for anyone craving authentic Indian taste!”
“Cool little restaurant, excellent service, wonderful food. Highly recommend!”

“There is a reason why QDOBA Kingston has a 4.8 star rating!!! We were having a Staff get together so we used QDOBA Catering. They arrived on time did the full set up for us, they arranged everything neatly, all of our food items had cards to indicate what each item was. They were so friendly and professional! Five stars for service!! Also, Five stars for flavour … the food was so delicious, and price point was amazing. They even threw in a couple of free items that they thought we would like just so we could try them. I highly recommend QDOBA Kingston.”

“I stopped by this location because my bus had a quick 10-minute break. I placed a last-minute Uber Eats order to pick up a burger, fully expecting that I wouldn’t have enough time to get it. However, the staff truly went above and beyond.
The person preparing the burgers understood my time constraints, quickly coordinated with the kitchen team, and managed to have everything ready in just 5-6 minutes — despite a long line of waiting customers.
Their efficiency, understanding, and customer-first attitude really impressed me. Thanks to them, I made it back to my bus on time and got my food. Exceptional service like this deserves recognition!
Highly recommend this location for both their great food and their amazing team.”

“We specially drove to this location after seeing they had one the highest reviews in the area and we were not disappointed! Sunita welcomed us as soon as we entered the restaurant, took our order with a lot of attention and followed all of our requests as we had some diatary restrictions, everything with a smiling face and positive attitude. Exactly what we were looking for on our long drive. The restaurant washrooms and inside was also very clean. Thank You!”
“After my partner and I ordering our meals my 3 year old began to throw a tantrum he wanted chocolate milk and juice. The person working could see my struggle as i couldnt afford both. He gave my son one of the drinks as I didn't have any extra money to pay for both drinks. A plus food was absolutely delicious, fast and affordable. Highly recommend! 🥰🙏👏 #Food #Drinks #CustomerService #Family”

“I have dreamed of a roast beef dinner. I was very happy to see the return of the roast beef dinner. It's like Sunday dinner with all the family around the table. Tender and plenty of juice and a side of gravy. I'm not fond of their chicken, so when they bring out the roast beef, I'm there. Paired with mash potatoes and well prepared vegetables.”

“Ashamed to admit this is my first time eating here in over 10 years of living in the city. I loved the choice of authentic non-alcoholic German beers! My friend and I split the pretzel- came out piping hot and delicious. The trio of salads was a great little appetizer before the jager schnitzel- huge portion and the spaetzle was perfectly chewy. I can't wait to return and try more things on the menu!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We loved our dining experience at Casa Domenico! Super friendly staff, exceptional service and phenomenal food located in the heart of downtown Kingston On. We had the Ravioli di Casa and Caprese salad—both were fresh, flavourful and delicious. Finished with a Limoncello tiramisu that was amazing. Highly recommend.”
“I rarely , and I mean RARELY post reviews … but for this restaurant , I will.
It was exceptional!! The food was absolutely outstanding ! The presentation , the quality and taste ON TOP of everything being sourced as close to home as possible, makes this place 1000/10. If it’s not a farm to table restaurant , I don’t know what is !
Service , equally on par . We had such a wonderful , flawless experience and it’s now my favourite restaurant , hands down
Thank you for a perfect evening ! I can’t wait to come back”
“My wife and I celebrated our 1st Anniversary at the Keg tonight. incredible food. The prime rib was cooked to perfection. We sat across from another couple that was celebrating there 1st Anniversary too. Small world. Joel was amazing at helping us all with the menu choices for drinks, main course, and even dessert. our first time so that was big for us to get this from him. Joel made our experience and evening even better. So polite, entertaining, and knowledgeable about what we wanted. Thank you sir. We will definitely be back and looking forward to seeing you again.”

“We had the privilege of having your turkey dinner delivered this year. It was amazing and so delicious. Thank you to everyone who put in work so that we were able to have that meal. As a large family sometimes traditions like a Christmas dinner have to be put on the back burner due to lack of funds, funds having to go towards groceries that cost an insane amount. My point of this is just to truly thank everyone of you that had a part in making our meal. There was a lot of money, time and effort that went into making this happen. Your efforts do not go unnoticed.”

“Lovepreet is an amazing and hardworking employee! She’s always friendly, polite, and prepares food with great care. Her customer service is excellent — she’s fast, efficient, and always has a smile on her face. It’s always a pleasure being served by her she is such a dedicated and kind staff member!🫶🏻”
“If there was room for 10 stars would be the owner was there at the time celebrating one of her workers anniversarys and was a joyful host of the restaurant greeting regulars and asking others how food is if my boss when I worked at aw was like that I would of enjoyed it but will be coming back again and again ty again for great food”
“I came in around 8:30 last night and ordered 3 mcflurrys for my kids, and within a minute both mine and another persons ice cream order were called out. nina was who made and served the ice cream, she did absolutely amazing and did it so quickly. I love the teamwork in this workplace.”
“Fran is just wonderful!
I’m always passing through around 7:30am and even with a constant stream of customers she takes time to go over and above with smiles and small talk while quickly pushing orders out.
She’s watched me juggle coupons and bounce around screens in my app and asked permission to take my phone while we waited for my order so she could show me how to put it all in one spot :)
She definitely starts my morning on a positive note and has secured Tim Hortons at least one repeat customer!”
“Very pleasant and outgoing staff! The restaurant was very clean and we felt safer at this location than we have at others in the city. Restrooms ere spotless and we witnessed staff members cleaning their hands and changing gloves after handling money which is a hygienic thing thst is often overlooked.”
“My taste buds were overwhelmed with flavour,texture and freshness. The unique atmosphere was lovely and staff passionate about their craft. Many thanks for an enjoyable evening 🙏”
“My son and daughter in law were recently married at our home. I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Go Italian and their catering service and in particular Jess. They arrived and quickly quietly and efficiently. They made the who experience so relaxing and easy. The food was piping hot and so flavourful. We had four dinner options and each one was as tasty as the others. The guest loved the food! What impressed me the most was Jess’ attention to the food accommodations of the guests with allergies. These dishes were prepared first so there could be no cross contamination. She personally delivered the to the specific guest and I had no concerns at all that each of these guest receive dinners that were safe for them. It was a load off this Moms mind! Lastly, they left the way they arrived quietly, efficiently and professionally. They left enough food in containers for the bride and grooms families and the wedding party to feed their families the day following the wedding. My kitchen was left cleaner than it was when they arrived! Five stars really isn’t enough to rate our experience with Go Italian catering.”

“Quality and quantity! large portions that will have you excited to hungry enough to order again! Their Roti is top tier and if you want something filled with flavour that is still healthy and fun...this is it. Please do not come to Kingston without trying it...and if you live here....it's your soon to be staple 🤤🤤🤤”
“The service was awesome from the staff and with advice from the owner (we presume) on what to try, we settled on the Family Greek Combo for 2 (new to menu) which is Gyros and Greek Fries, Classic Poutine and a Cheese Burger Trio. If we didn't live 5 hours away, this would be a regular place for us to visit.”
“I've been ordering coffee beans from North Roast for a few years now and I absolutely love them. I do not live in town, so I have them shipped to me. Beans are always freshly roasted and my orders arrive a couple days after being placed (the beans were either roasted the day of or the day before for every order).
There is a large selection of beans available from across the world. I usually order the single origins as opposed to the blends, but that is just my personal preference. I like to know exactly where the beans come from so I can identify what I like/dislike. When I become more familiar with the different flavours/characteristics of each bean, then I start to mix some of them together. :)
I highly recommend North Roast, as they have a great selection and great prices.”

“I’m from the Greater Toronto area and came to Kingston on a weekend trip. My partner was really interested in trying Cambodian food. The lady that served us showed us MANY vegan options in their menu. I drew a blue circle on all the vegan options in the photo I attached, there’s quite a few!
For the price, you get a good amount of food, we were both very please that we could make our trip back home with a full stomach.
I think because I was scattered that day thinking about the trip home, I forgot my purse in the seat across from me. The lady that helped us find all those vegan options ran outside to find me to give it back. Thank you so much and thank you for having so many vegan options ❤️”

“I visited Subway recently and was helped by Parvinder. She was really polite, professional, and quick with my order. The sandwich was made just the way I asked, and she made sure everything was clean and fresh. Her friendly attitude made the experience even better. Great service overall—thank you, Parvinder”
“On way to Montreal, had a stop over for Pakistani lunch at Naan Stop on the recommendation of my son Ahmad Jamal who had been their customer during his studies at Queens University. Lunch was delicious, ample quantity, garma garam taway ki roti with chappal kabab ... shandar. For Indo Pak customers, lota was available in washroom. A must visit place to enjoy hospitality of professional, family like people.”
“My wife took me to our favorite Kingston fine dining restaurant tonight for my birthday! Wonderful evening at the always full Grecos Grill & Wine Bar with a wonderful din of conversation, servers happily singing and humming, and the great food. I had the always tender and flavorful bone-in veal chop and my wife had her fave and what she considers the best lamb shank in Kingston! A wonderful meal capped with excellent desserts and coffee. Great experience, awesome menu and specials, and excellent kitchen and wait staff!”

“I just wanted to share a big thank you to one of the staff members at Subway today Jeel was absolutely amazing! Not only was she kind and polite, but she made my order with care and a genuine smile. You could tell she takes pride in her work and values her customers. It’s rare to come across someone who makes even a quick food stop feel positive and welcoming. She made my day better thank you for having someone like her on your team!”
“Graham, our server, made it a great experience. He was entertaining and knowledgeable. The food came out quick and was very good.”

I reccomend this place to everyone, it’s genuinely a staple of the city in my mind.”

Definitely a spot I’d come back to for my bubble tea fix!”

Would definitely drive back just for this place!!”
“I just celebrated my 7 year anniversary with my spouse on Sunday night and the service was out of this world. the hostess and waitress went above and beyond to give us the best service. this is our 3rd year celebrating our anniversary on the patio at Aqua Terra, safe to say it is our tradition because we always get impeccable service and food.”
“This place is so damned cool j almost don't want to leave a review as to preserve it's awesomeness. Bingo, slots, bar - all cool. The real kicker in my eyes though is pool, Cornhole, rod hockey (and soccer) as well as an extensive collection of boardgames that are all FREE. What a diamond in the rough in the entertainment world. Seriously... (Don't) 🤫 Go there now. Honest if I was local I would't have reviewed it... it's that good.

“The food, drinks, and service were nothing short of exceptional! We visited for the NYE 5-course menu, and every single dish was a masterpiece—each bite was better than the last. The atmosphere was simply perfect, and I was especially impressed by their innovative and delicious non-alcoholic cocktail options.
A huge thank you to Nancy and Sean for going above and beyond to make us feel incredibly welcome with our newborn. Their warmth, attentiveness, and care created an unforgettable experience, and the quality of the food and service was truly top-notch.”
“Thank you Richard (greeter) for looking Wednesday for my phone at Sabrina’s table. I did find it eventually in my car this morning.
Good kung fu! very respectful.
Apart from that while dining in, i ate a pound of wings….dry rubs are good & even better with sour creme. So good I had the other dry rub. A little secret…after being served i sprinkle my own sea salt & cayenne pepper for a 25% expansion of flavour…always after served i.e. cooking.”
“Fantastic home cooking style Korean food. One of the best meals I've ever had. The staff was so friendly and welcoming.”
“Always a fantastic experience at the Copper Penny. My uncle and I dined there for lunch this week and the service was fantastic. Britt and Dan were working and took great care of us. The food was also spot on, like always. A Kingston staple, for many reasons!”
“Very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. Love all the art craft work avaiable there too”
“We had a meal from here after a day fishing on Lake Ontario. We had five dishes. Two with fresh walleye caught today. They made Kung Pau chicken for me. Everything was great. Simple location but our food was perfection.”
“The food, beer, service and atmosphere was great!! The bathroom was disgusting. Men and women should not share a bathroom. Sorry to state the fact that men are disgusting when it come to hitting the toilet bowl. The floor in the stalls was covered in urine which ended up on the bottom of my shoes. You never see this in a ladies washroom.”
“Absolutely amazing food! the freshest poke, salmon, and sushi you can get. My boyfriend and I love coming here, it’s easily one of our favorite spots in Kingston. The prices are super reasonable for how fresh everything is, and the service is always great. The atmosphere is lovely too, really makes the whole experience even better.
If you’re wondering what to try, my boyfriend swears by the spicy kani, and I highly recommend the salmon poke bowl! it’s always beautifully prepared and absolutely delicious. 10/10, we can’t recommend this place enough!”
“This place never disappoint when it comes to food. Everything is cook in perfection. My husband usually wont eat calamari for appetizer mostly because every place we've been overcook them but this place did it perfectly.. Server is nice and polite.. We are sure to come back soon..”
“I wouldn’t normally review Swiss Chalet - it’s always consistent, always tasty, right? What set our visit apart this time was the outstanding service we received from Allie. She was super pleasant, competent and genuine. On a busy night (it’s was their two can done deal), where all staff were clearly working hard, we didn’t feel rushed and felt extremely well taken care of. Next time we are there, we will ask for Allie to be our server.”
“I love taking our family here. The food is pretty good, service sometimes is a bit slow depending on time of day, there is a lot of variety and the food is brought right to your table!”
“Matty Boy BBQ was one of the best parts of our wedding! The food was unbelievable. Locally sourced food, smoked and cooked to perfection, and generous portions, what more could you ask for? Vegetarian options- they got em! The presentation of our meal at the buffet/carving station was so unique! It was an experience for us and the guests. Our guests raved about the meal and complimented all aspects of Matty Boy BBQ’s offering. Their professionalism and enthusiasm is unmatched. Matt was flexible and accommodating. The team comes with all the equipment they need and they respect the wedding setup. Thank you for an incredible experience! My husband was passionate about having a delicious meal and he nailed the decision to have our meal from Matty Boy BBQ.”
“I thought the food was pretty good quality and very reasonably priced. The rules were good and service was fast and friendly. I definitely would come back here again.”
“Affordable, convenient, tastes great. Perfect for picking up after work.”
“Food was good, generously portioned and reasonably priced. will visit again ☺”
“Great sushi including delicious vegetarian. The deluxe black dragon with bbq eel was awesome as well as the Philadelphia. Super fresh and although the price is high, I would pay it again. My only complaint is that they serve ginger and wasabi in packets. I don’t understand how a place with that quality of sushi can’t afford to provide a nicer ginger and wasabi. Also Would definitely love to see some additional flavourful vegetarian like a lightly fried vegetarian dynamite roll, some spicy mayo veggie rolls, the use of sundried tomatoes.”
“My wife and I had a nice lunch here while waiting for skates to be sharpened at Sportchek. We both had a Salmon Bowl which was excellent. The Salmon is raw and fresh. Everything was tasty and the service very good. With the tax holiday, cost was $34.00 including a can of Diet Coke and a bottle of water.”
“My husband and I Went for lunch and food was delicious and reasonably priced, will definitely be going back”
“Northern Chinese Barbecue is an amazing spot if you love authentic grilled skewers. The menu has a wide variety of choices — we tried the lamb skewers, chicken wings, and grilled squid and everything came out hot, tender, and well seasoned with just the right amount of spice and cumin. The eggplant with garlic was another standout, full of flavor and perfectly cooked. Portions are generous and everything comes out fresh from the grill.
The restaurant itself is clean and well maintained, with a lively atmosphere, especially in the evenings. The staff are friendly and quick with service, making sure skewers come out steadily without long waits. Prices are reasonable considering the quality and variety you get, and it’s easy to share among a group of friends.
If you go, definitely order the classic lamb skewers (a must-try), and pair them with some cold beer, which is the perfect match. It can get busy during dinner hours, so going a little earlier helps if you want a quieter experience.
Overall, Northern Chinese Barbecue delivers on both authentic taste and good service, and it’s a spot I’d recommend to anyone craving northern-style skewers.”
“Highly recommending the peach green tea with tapioca. 😊 Great service!”
“Pleasantly surprised. In our family, birthday venues are chosen by the individual whose birthday it is - even if no one else wants it. I had even tried to dissuade him, particularly after the reviews I had read. We had it delivered, within the expected time, by a sweet elderly gentleman. The food was wonderful. The food exceed ed expectations. The quality of the ingredients, always a pet peeve - whether it's the freshness of the veggies, the quantity, or the quality of the meat. Definitely not a problem with this order.”
“We were there at about 1030 on Thursday night and the young lady who served us was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. I would definitely recommend this place.”
“Stopped in and had a wonderful lunch. Everything was fresh and made correctly.”

I had even tried to dissuade him, particularly after the reviews I had read. We had it delivered, within the expected time, by a sweet elderly gentleman. The food was wonderful. The food exceed ed expectations. The quality of the ingredients, always a pet peeve - whether it's the freshness of the veggies, the quantity, or the quality of the meat. Definitely not a problem with this order.”
“My son and daughter in law were recently married at our home. I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Go Italian and their catering service and in particular Jess. They arrived and quickly quietly and efficiently. They made the who experience so relaxing and easy. The food was piping hot and so flavourful. We had four dinner options and each one was as tasty as the others. The guest loved the food! What impressed me the most was Jess’ attention to the food accommodations of the guests with allergies. These dishes were prepared first so there could be no cross contamination. She personally delivered the to the specific guest and I had no concerns at all that each of these guest receive dinners that were safe for them. It was a load off this Moms mind! Lastly, they left the way they arrived quietly, efficiently and professionally. They left enough food in containers for the bride and grooms families and the wedding party to feed their families the day following the wedding. My kitchen was left cleaner than it was when they arrived! Five stars really isn’t enough to rate our experience with Go Italian catering.”
“The service at Milestones Kingston is excellent. My wife and I had a wonderful evening, shared an appetizer, then shared a main. Our waiter, Brett, offered to have the main on two plates, which came beautifully presented for each of us. Other staff members stopped by. All staff were friendly, attentive and pleasant without being intrusive. The food was hot and delicious. Thank you.”
“The food, beer, service and atmosphere was great!! The bathroom was disgusting. Men and women should not share a bathroom. Sorry to state the fact that men are disgusting when it come to hitting the toilet bowl. The floor in the stalls was covered in urine which ended up on the bottom of my shoes. You never see this in a ladies washroom.”
“I tried the Beef Bourguignon pie last week. OMG !! The best I have ever had by far. Huge chunks of beef, fingerling potatoes, pearl onions, and that sauce, oh my. My Mouth is watering just typing this. Very friendly staff with a country store atmosphere. Loved it...”

“After my partner and I ordering our meals my 3 year old began to throw a tantrum he wanted chocolate milk and juice. The person working could see my struggle as i couldnt afford both. He gave my son one of the drinks as I didn't have any extra money to pay for both drinks. A plus food was absolutely delicious, fast and affordable. Highly recommend! 🥰🙏👏 #Food #Drinks #CustomerService #Family”
“Great vibes at lone star. Danger and Fireball were amazing servers and really welcomed us in after being turned away from other local restos. They provided us with great suggestions for food and drink and made the best frozen margs my dad has had! The vibes on the patio were top tier and happy hour at 8pm, what else could you need!”

“I stopped by this location because my bus had a quick 10-minute break. I placed a last-minute Uber Eats order to pick up a burger, fully expecting that I wouldn’t have enough time to get it. However, the staff truly went above and beyond.
The person preparing the burgers understood my time constraints, quickly coordinated with the kitchen team, and managed to have everything ready in just 5-6 minutes — despite a long line of waiting customers.
Their efficiency, understanding, and customer-first attitude really impressed me. Thanks to them, I made it back to my bus on time and got my food. Exceptional service like this deserves recognition!
Highly recommend this location for both their great food and their amazing team.”
“We went last night for the greatly advertised buffet only to be told there was no buffet tonight and they do that only when they want! Service was slow and minimal. Had to chase someone down after waiting 20 minutes to get our naan and 1 meal we were missing. Once we got the food it was decent. They need to update their offerings and advertising if the buffet isn't really a daily offering. Also need to work on customer service and coordination with the kitchen. Once they get that tuned up we will be back but not until. It's unfortunate because when I went for a lunch buffet a few months back the food was quite good.”
“I had a great experience at this KFC location! The food was fresh, hot, and exactly what I expected. What really stood out was the customer service l. the staff were friendly, welcoming, and made sure everything was right with my order. It’s nice to see a team that cares about their customers and keeps the place clean and well-organized. Definitely one of the better KFC experiences I’ve had. I’ll be coming back for sure! 🍗”
“The service was awesome from the staff and with advice from the owner (we presume) on what to try, we settled on the Family Greek Combo for 2 (new to menu) which is Gyros and Greek Fries, Classic Poutine and a Cheese Burger Trio. If we didn't live 5 hours away, this would be a regular place for us to visit.”
“Crave Coffee House & Bakery, nestled in Kingston, is a fantastic locally owned spot that truly impressed during our recent visit. Despite being quite busy, the vibrant atmosphere and excellent offerings made it clear why it's a popular choice.
Upon entering, the first thing that strikes you is the sheer spaciousness of Crave. Unlike many cramped coffee shops, Crave offers an incredibly generous layout with an abundance of indoor seating. This makes it an ideal spot not just for a quick stop, but also a perfect haven for productivity – definitely a place I'd recommend bringing your laptop to get some work done. The comfortable setup encourages lingering, whether you're catching up with friends or tackling a project.
But what's a coffee shop without its namesake? Crave delivers a truly exceptional cup of coffee – rich, expertly brewed, and satisfying. Beyond the excellent brew, their selection of bakery items and sandwiches is extensive and tempting. Whether you're craving a sweet treat to go with your coffee or a more substantial meal, Crave has a diverse array of options that cater to every appetite.
In summary, Crave Coffee House & Bakery is a true gem in Kingston. With its welcoming, spacious environment, delicious food and drink options, and commitment to local charm, it's a must-visit whether you're looking for your morning pick-me-up, a casual lunch, or a productive workspace. Highly recommended!”
“There is a reason why QDOBA Kingston has a 4.8 star rating!!! We were having a Staff get together so we used QDOBA Catering. They arrived on time did the full set up for us, they arranged everything neatly, all of our food items had cards to indicate what each item was. They were so friendly and professional! Five stars for service!! Also, Five stars for flavour … the food was so delicious, and price point was amazing. They even threw in a couple of free items that they thought we would like just so we could try them. I highly recommend QDOBA Kingston.”
