“First time visiting. Greeted by two friendly servers, hard to choose but i got three soft tacos and my husband chose a burrito. The portions were abundant, prices decent, food absolutely delicious. 10/10 Ate all our food before I could think of taking a picture. My only disappointment - there isnt a restaurant anywhere between Kitchener, London and Kingston. *sigh* Durham or Northumberland County would be great spots *hint hint*”

“Stellar Customer Care!
I've ordered Coffee online from different companies and North Roast stands out in a really great way.
From my calling, or emailing
with questions about the various blends/roasts of Coffee, they have always been attentive and helpful with their responses. Thank you Alex, Rich and anyone else I may have omitted (not intentionally).
The people at this company are genuine and show me that they care about their customers. This means a lot to me.
I am enjoying 'Gander'; 1 of 3 packs from my order. I find it just right for my taste - not overly strong or weak and I look forward to consuming my other 2 packs.
Cheers!

“Quality and quantity! large portions that will have you excited to hungry enough to order again!

Ice Cream Shop • $$
“Great place for real quality gelato. I came by for the first time in August last year on my birthday. I was initially disappointed they didn't have any matcha flavour (something I'm crazy for in just about anything) at that time, but the Strawberry Margarita I ended up getting was absolutely amazing. I've had a couple others since which were also delish as well. Plus, I just love that they have a good assortment of flavours that are interesting and fun. So many flavours and always something new. I'm also not a fan of chocolate in general so it's nice to find somewhere with a good selection that includes plenty of flavour options where it's not one of the ingredients. However, they do still have plenty of flavours that do have chocolate for those that do enjoy it making plenty of options for everyone's personal preferences. I don't live in Kingston, but love to drop in every few months when I happen to be in the area. Might I suggest maybe a mango or lychee flavour for the future? My 2 favorite fruits. 😋🍦”
Cambodian • $
“Brought my pup along on a whim a couple weeks ago and the staff didn't blink, even brought out a water bowl without me asking. The patio has a nice relaxed vibe for an early dinner, and the amok was rich and perfectly balanced, not too sweet like some places make it. Parking behind the building was easy to find too, which is a nice bonus in that part of Kingston. Already planning to bring my dog back next time we're craving Cambodian food.”

It’s not something I would usually order, but it completely won me over and is now a must-have for next time. The arancini balls were the perfect starter. A great way to begin the meal. The salmon special was equally delicious. We will be back again.”

So nice to have that calibre of Lebanese and Syrian cuisine in Kingston. Portions are generous, super fresh food and always very friendly staff to help.

“I recently visited Subway, and I was pleasantly surprised by how fresh and flavorful everything was! The first thing that stood out was the clean, welcoming atmosphere and the friendliness of the staff. Simran took the time to listen to what I wanted and prepared my sandwich exactly to my liking.
The bread was soft and warm, and the veggies were crisp and fresh — you can really taste the difference. I chose a turkey sub with loads of spinach, tomatoes, cucumbers, and a bit of chipotle southwest sauce — the flavors balanced perfectly. What I love about Subway is the ability to customize everything, from bread type to sauces, making it easy to eat healthy or indulge a little when you want.
The prices are reasonable, especially considering the portion size and quality. It’s also a great quick option whether you’re grabbing lunch on the go or sitting down for a light meal.
Overall, I’d definitely recommend Subway if you’re looking for fresh, customizable, and tasty sandwiches. Consistently good food and friendly service make it a dependable choice!”

“Great experience at Harvey’s! The burgers are always fresh and flame-grilled, and I love that you can customize your toppings just the way you like.

“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.”

“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.”

“We dined here on the evening of the World Cup semifinals and the food, service and atmosphere was great. Lots of big screens to be able to watch the game, pool tables and bowling. Our group was in Kingston for a soccer tournament and we had a large group of hungry teenage soccer players. The servers Katie and Dayna did an amazing job ensuring our orders were taken care of perfectly and delivered with a smile. We were in and out by 7:30pm. Would definitely recommend.”

“Mamma Mia's pizza was absolutely the best pizza I've ever eaten in my life. It was delivered with a smile on time and hot. It was for an 89-year-old birthday party at Providence Care Hospital and it brought a lot of smiles to the birthday girl especially with the double bacon, her absolute favourite food. Thank you Mama Mia's for the quality ingredients and for the care you put into making your food. It was delicious!! We will be back.”

Our waiter, Brett, offered to have the main on two plates, which came beautifully presented for each of us. Other staff members stopped by.

She handled my order quickly and accurately, even the store was busy. Her positive attitude and warm smile really stood out and made my visit enjoyable.

Brewery • $$
“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.”

“Always loved this place. Service was a little low this time. We weren't greeted with chips and salsa and it took forever to get some. When I asked for more salsa, something that has never been a problem, I was giving the smallest bowl of salsa in the world.
Out of the night, our server was great and the food was amazing as always”

“Simply the best Shawarma in Kingston. The flavours remind me of my favourite shawarma place in Ottawa (ARZ) which is now closed. So nice to have that calibre of Lebanese and Syrian cuisine in Kingston. Portions are generous, super fresh food and always very friendly staff to help. Customer service seems to be ingrained in each one of the team. HIGHLY recommend. (Got a 4.99 bowl of lentil soup this time as well….wont be the last time!)”

“Only 4 stars for Service and Atmosphere as it's a counter order restaurant, BUT it's wonderful. The owner was there today and he insisted that we sample their new way of preparing chicken breast which is featured in chicken burgers, pita, souvlaki, all chicken dishes. It was luscious and absolutely Dee-licious!!
And all so reasonably priced.”

“First time visiting. Greeted by two friendly servers, hard to choose but i got three soft tacos and my husband chose a burrito. The portions were abundant, prices decent, food absolutely delicious. 10/10 Ate all our food before I could think of taking a picture. My only disappointment - there isnt a restaurant anywhere between Kitchener, London and Kingston. *sigh* Durham or Northumberland County would be great spots *hint hint*”
