“I recently dined at Raja Chettinad Fine Indian Cuisine for the first time, and it was an outstanding experience. The food was the best Indian cuisine I’ve ever had, flavourful, authentic, and beautifully prepared. The service was friendly, attentive, and truly excellent. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for authentic Northern and Southern Indian dishes. I will definitely be returning!”
“The food and selection is amazing. Staff were great. Parking is so much better than the old location.”
“Montanas is my son’s favourite resto for dinner. The staff are always so sweet to him, especially Julia. She’s so nice, friendly with my son and she had awesome menu suggestions.”
“We had wonderful service and food at the Swiss Chalet on Fairway Road in Kitchener! We were seated almost immediately. Our professional and friendly server, Betty, stopped by the table within a couple of minutes and took our order. In the past, we have had horrible wait times at the Swiss Chalet on Weber Street (40 minutes or more) so we decided to give Swiss Chalet on Fairway Road a try. Boy, we were amazed and pleasantly surprised. We received our food within ten minutes. It was delicious! The chicken was tender and the market vegetables were cooked perfectly. Betty, our server, made the experience at Swiss Chalet all the better by the attentive and professional service that she provided. We will be back to Swiss Chalet, Fairway Road, Kitchener. Thank you, Betty, for your wonderful service! ❤️👍”
“I went to Swiss Chalet on Highland for dinner with a friend and had a great experience. We were served by an amazing waitress named Jeneyah, and she truly made our visit special. She was very pleasant, gave us plenty of menu options, and was attentive throughout our meal. Our food was taken and delivered in a timely manner—hot, fresh, and delicious. The restaurant environment was clean and welcoming, and overall the service was excellent. I’d rate this visit a 9.5/10 and would definitely return!”

“First time visiting this restaurant in KW. Waiter was amazing and very attentive. Loved the butter chicken. This was my husbands first time at an Indian restaurant and he really liked it. We will be back.”
“Great tasting and filling! Large selection and reasonable prices. Friendly staff.”
“Finally made it out to try this place, I’m disappointed we waited so long! Everything was amazing. The brisket was some of the best Ive had and the Brussel sprouts were out of this world. Great cocktail and beer selection as well. Our server Shana was fantastic, we didn’t need for anything ! Will definitely be returning.”

“It got cool inside but warmed up right after
I had the wings. Kayden was such a delight it was my birthday she provided me with a chocolate chip cookie . As much as I tried she insisted that I take the chocolate chip cookie as she felt even though I got the wings in me that I would not be able to fly .
I decided to eat the cookie while I wrote this wicked awesome review . It is almost gone now but I asked for a diet with two limes which I got the first one but the fact that she remembered on my refill was life changing .
Forever altered”
“We were a group that tried almost one of everything on the menu. Escargot, Caesar Salad, Lamb, Duck, Coq au vin, Scallops, a beautiful French wine and to finish Creme Brulee, Coffee and Cognac. It was all so good. The flavours were out of this world. And the service couldn't be better. I wish I remembered the name of the lady that served us. She was very well informed and very attentive. Our compliments to the chef for some amazing food.”
“A Whimsical Wonderland of Flavour and Charm! From the moment I stepped into Queen of Hearts Tea House, I felt like I had wandered straight into a fairytale. The atmosphere is absolutely enchanting—vintage elegance meets whimsical charm, with cozy seating, delicate china, and thoughtful decor that truly makes you feel like royalty. The tea selection is phenomenal! Whether you’re a classic Earl Grey lover or craving something more adventurous like lavender or lime gelato, they’ve got something that will surprise and delight your taste buds. I tried the signature Earl Grey cream and paired with the freshly baked scones was pure magic. The staff are warm, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable. They genuinely care about your experience and are happy to guide you through the menu. The service was top-notch from start to finish. Whether you’re planning a quiet afternoon escape, a special date, or a whimsical tea party with friends, Queen of Hearts is the perfect spot. I honestly didn’t want to leave—and I’ll definitely be back soon! Highly, highly recommend. 💕☕👑”
“I thoroughly enjoy going to Charcoal and usually get the fish tacos. This last time I went the fish tacos had changed slightly and they were passable but I still think the previous one was far better.”
“This place is an absolute gem. I didnt actually know what I was walking into, its looks richy rich inside, however, feels extremely welcoming, plus this place is so well kept and the staff were amazing. The food was exceptional and portions were very good. The server I had, made us feel like family, and Im sure that's what drives this place to do what they do, from a spotless interior, to homemade hand crafted foods, it feels like family. If ever in the area, I would highly recommend giving them a try.”

“I order from this A&W almost every night around midnight through the drive-thru, and Jay always provides amazing service. He’s consistently friendly, welcoming, and professional, no matter how late it is. His positive attitude really stands out — he definitely deserves recognition for his great work!”
“This is basically the only A&W that I go to in town. This restaurant is always clean and the food is mostly good. The staff there are awesome, especially Balbair and Rajan, they are very pleasant people.
I especially went there today for their Rooty keychain...they are so adorable and a must have!”
“I had an amazing experience at Tim Hortons late at night. The night shift team was incredibly friendly, patient, and hardworking. Even during a busy time, they served everyone with a smile and made sure my order was perfect. It’s not easy working overnight, but they handled everything professionally and kept the place clean and welcoming. Thank you to the entire night crew for your excellent service—you truly deserve the recognition!”
“I visited McDonald’s this week and had a really great experience. The staff was very friendly and welcoming, especially Manisha. She provided excellent customer service, and I really appreciated getting fresh, hot fries. Everything was great, and I’m very happy with my visit. Thank you, Manisha, for the wonderful service! 😊”
“Always an enjoyable experience going through the drive thru, this team at this location is absolutely top notch. More locations throughout KW should have the management and staff like this location.
Sad to take a star away, today was the worst, ordered two sandwiches and two coffees, order wasn’t on the screen and once I was done ordering, no thank you, no order total, just a “drive up”. I have always been an advocate of this location, as it’s always been great service. When I’m told by the (appeared to be the drive thru leader) that I should look at their debit machine screen for my total like most do to get my total. I wear glasses as I’m near sited, so I couldn’t see the total on the screen and it wasn’t on the drive thru screen. Could have just verbalized my total but chose to argue about it. Sad, it has been becoming less customer service orientated recently.”
“Yesterday evening, an employee at this Tim Hortons showed me an act of kindness that I won't forget. After I realized I had accidentally left my wallet at work, she trusted me and kindly gave me a coffee, even though I couldn't pay at the time. I promised I would return the next day to pay for it.
Today, after getting my wallet back, I returned and explained the situation to the staff. The three employees working at the counter immediately knew who I was talking about and seemed genuinely surprised that I had come back to pay. One employee thanked me twice and mentioned that many people who make that promise never return.
That experience reminded me that genuine kindness and honesty still exist. The employee who helped me yesterday showed incredible compassion, and today's staff were just as appreciative and welcoming. Moments like this are what make a business stand out.
It's easy for people to leave negative reviews after a bad day, but I believe it's just as important to recognize outstanding customer service. A sincere thank you to Ishita for her kindness, trust, and compassion yesterday, and another thank you to the employees who helped me today for their appreciation and professionalism.”
“We found this restaurant by chance while looking for something close to us and decided to give it a try. We were pleasantly surprised from the first encounter.The staff was very friendly and helped us with the description of each dish because we are not familiar with the names of the dishes. Everything we ordered was very delicious, flavorful (the spices in each dish were plentiful)and decent portions that we couldn't even eat.The naan bread was the best I've ever eaten. The prices are reasonable and the atmosphere cosy.”
“Amazing food, quality service, plenty of options!
The food is extremely delicious, every time me and my son come here we love it.
I highly recommend it to everyone! The portions are very generous!”

“The pork bone soup is pretty good with a mild spicy flavour and you definitely good value for your money even without the complimentary side dishes of pork slivers, kimchi and bean sprouts. It hit the spot as I was feeling under the weather and I don’t believe you can a bone broth anywhere else in this area. Would be even better if they had a non spicy option.”
“If you’re tired of the same old basic eggs benedict and avocado toast chains, Maha’s is the ultimate wake-up call for your taste buds. Located in the east end on Greenwood, it’s a vibrant, colorful, family-run spot that literally smells like heaven - think roasted cumin, fresh mint & frying garlic hitting you the second you get within half a block.
The Atmosphere: It feels like you’ve been invited directly into a bustling Cairo family kitchen. It’s loud, tightly packed, full of beautiful Egyptian art & incredibly welcoming. Maha and her kids are usually running the floor, treating regulars like old friends.”

“I had tried some gluten free bread options at some local grocery chains - yuck! That’s all I can say. I am not a gluten- free expert, as I am only starting to treat my ailments through experimentation, but let me tell you this - I am very happy with the product from Winnie’s! I went in and was promptly greeted, and the young lady that helped me was so pleasant and patient while I asked a million questions. I purchased a standard gluten/dairy free loaf of white bread. When I got home, I cut myself a generous slice, popped it in the toaster and buttered it. I had very low expectations to be honest, but what do you know… IT WAS FANTASTIC! I would go as far to say that’s it’s better than grocery store (gluten filled) bread. I can finally have a toasted tomato sandwich again 🤗 Will definitely be back!”
“Taste of Seoul did not disappoint! Every dish is flavourful, delicious, and feels so clean and fresh. The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, making the experience even better. Truly one of the best Korean restaurants we’ve tried so far — perfect for a quick and satisfying stop in Kitchener.””
“The Tri City Food Ninjas stopped in to Rustico tonight. We were a group of 46. Where do I start? The food: The food is incredible. ESPECIALLY the Arancini. Unfortunately I dove face first into my pizza before remembering to take a photo. The homemade Caesar dressing is also something quite special. The service: Staff was so attentive and on their game. They had us full of drinks, appetizers, mains, and dessert (in a lot of cases) in under two hours. We have some older members, some who work midnights and such, and the timing really meant a lot to them. We have had exceptional service in the past but the organization of this small kitchen and the serving staff is impressive! Everyone under that roof tonight showed so much pride in what they were doing. We will be talking about this stop for quite some time. Thank you for having us!”
“Gauc Mexi Grill is hands down one of the best spots for fresh, flavorful food! The ingredients taste super fresh, and everything is made just right. The portions are generous, and you definitely get your money’s worth. The staff are friendly, quick, and make the whole experience even better. The vibe is chill and welcoming, whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or eating with friends. Highly recommend if you’re looking for quality Mexican food—definitely a 5-star spot!”
“I had a great experience at Popeyes thanks to Yash at the front counter. He was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and provided excellent customer service from the moment I walked in. He made the whole experience enjoyable with his positive attitude and professionalism. Employees like Yash truly make a difference, and I hope his hard work is recognized because he definitely deserves a raise. Keep up the amazing work, Yash!”

The service was fast, and the overall experience was great. I will definitely come back and recommend Harvey's to my friends and family.”
“Stopped for breakfast, first time visiting. Food was delivered hot and very tasty. Two eggs over easy, bacon was crispy, 2 sausages and home fries. Does that sound like alot... add two pancakes on top of that and a carafe of coffee and I was good to go. Literally one of the best breakfasts I have had in a long time. Will definitely return and recommend to others. 👍👍”
“Harvey’s at 235 Ira Needles Blvd in Kitchener was more than happy to accommodate me and my puppies, as we walked up to the drive-through window to purchase an iced tea and water.

I have always had a great experience here whether I'm dining in or getting take out.
If you give this place a try , you won't be disappointed.”

My husband and I with another couple had the most enjoyable time there this past Friday night..Service was excellent and we also got to enjoy live entertainment by Mary Catherine Pazzano singing and piano playing. while we dined..

“This is our local go to pub. The atmosphere is great and fun as a couple or a group. Their house salad is fantastic, have some vegetarian options as they change. The current masala burger is fantastic. The fries are too salty for my liking but not awful. We have a couple of favourite servers, all are great. Most seem to enjoy their fish and chips. We had a dinner there for 35-40 people in the back room and not one complaint or dish returned. Well done to the entire staff.”

“I have been here 3x and just recently tried some of the apps after 9pm super good and the bar tender is very nice and very helpful with our visit. good place to try if you are in the mood for comfort foods.”
“This is one of the best breweries in Kitchener/Waterloo and Cambridge. Personally, it's one of the few breweries in Canada that come across entirely personable and incredibly welcoming to everyone. The owner is extremely helpful, enthusiast, and well-knowledgeable about all areas of their business. The available beers will rotate, so often you can try a variety of different delicious beers throughout the year but still pick up their staples which are absolutely fantastic (make sure to do yourself a favour and grab some Lando!) The prices are fair, the areas are clean/well managed, and I have never encountered an issue with the mulitple times I have attended this establishment whether if it was for concerts, going with friends or just stopping in for a beer after work. It is one of the few places I know that not only an adult can enjoy, but kids are welcome with their parents and even dogs, too! I wish there were more places like Short Finger Brewing Co. in Kitchener/Waterloo/Cambridge, but I am extremely happy we have this place as not only do they support the Region of Waterloo at every opportunity but host a number of events for Arts community and more. I know if I stop in, it'll never be for a quick visit because it feels like a home away from home. And honestly, I love that.”
“I’m so happy to have found this restaurant. The food was amazing. The staff were so friendly and helped my husband to decide what to order. We had the dinner for 3 and ordered it medium spiced. Great portion sizes. We also got the pad Thai burrito. Very good also! We will be back!”
“Just had 3 Kretans for the first time in a long time. OMG the gyro pita and lemon chicken soup (Avgolemono) is fantastic. Thanks for a terrific lunch!”
“Amazing food. Great atmosphere. Lots of vegan options. Friendly service.”
“Great communication and no wait time for curb side pickup. Can’t wait to come back!”
“Our favorite place to go when we have some time as a couple. We come and get Ren and Zangi, fried chicken that's out of this world! Sansotei Ramen is an excellent choice to hit when that Ramen craving hits.”
“We have been going to the Metro since 1980 and have never been disappointed. The servers are always friendly and very accommodating. The best schnitzel ever. Food is always hot and delicious. Shout out to Brittany and Adam for the great service and wonderful meal last night.”
“Fantastic Food, flavour is out of this world and staff has always been friendly and speedy! The restaurant is A family staple of ours!”
“Great place and highly recommended! I will definitely come back and the staff was amazing.”

“Good vibes, great food and live bands. Was there in Wednesday night for karaoke and had a blast!! Nice relaxed place to unwind!!”
“Came in to watch the basketball game tonight and the place was packed, but Maya absolutely killed it behind the bar. Even with how busy it was, she stayed friendly, attentive, and on top of everything all night. Drinks were great, food came out fast, and she made sure everyone was taken care of despite handling the whole crowd. You could tell she was working incredibly hard and still gave amazing service. Honestly impressive how much chaos Maya was handling at once while still staying calm. Definitely one of the best experiences we’ve had at a sports bar in a long time!”

“Freshest tastiest made to order, delicious sushi. They use the best ingredients, golden dragon and dynamite rolls and try the crevettes we have been back numerous times and it is always the best consistent high-quality sushi.”
“I love they have a lactose free option - I don't even care it's a little bit extra. Pizza is great and it's so nice to actually enjoy pizza without having to make it myself. It's a small action on behalf of the pizza place but it means so much to me. I will be signing up for the rewards program and I will definitely be back.
FOLLOW-UP - ordered again tonight. This pizza is awesome! I've had 4 slices and I'm wondering if I can handle a 5th without making myself sick. Thank you and I did sign up for the rewards program.”
“I have the most wonderful experience with this particular location. Yoojeong is possibly the most wonderful person I have ever met. She is so kind and so pleasant. She is very dedicated to her profession and makes some of the best sushi I have ever had! They are made with exceptional quality. The sushi counter is always stocked with a wide variety of items. But most importantly, she will make me my vegetarian wraps when they are sold out from the case. She is so accommodating to her customers and cares deeply about their satisfaction. Full disclosure, I struggle with ARFID (Avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder) as a characteristic of my my autism. I tend to only be able to eat the same things every day. It can be quite distressing when food items are discontinued and I have to pivot quickly. When the menu was transitioning with the season and the mango wraps were no longer available, she offered to make them for me without my even asking. I was also able to try the avocado wraps and they are just as delicious! She likely has no idea what that meant to me or why. That her patience and kind gestures made my days so much less stressful. I appreciate her so much, I never want to be a bother to anyone so I rarely ask for accommodations. That she offered to make the old ones, and helped me to feel comfortable trying the new ones by explaining the similarities in the ingredients, made me feel so valued both as a customer and a person. I hope she reads this. Yoojeong, you are a gem of a human being!! Thank you!!”
“The New Owners Of The New Rabbid Fox Have A Great New Menu. Bright And Clean And The Patio Is Inviting!! They have live entertainment Saturdays plus we saw a cool band on the patio one afternoon!! ? ⭐️ Love the burgers and the pizza! ⭐️ Staff are friendly and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming! Never a disappointment for lunch or supper!”
“If you're looking for authentic Asian cuisine with a western twist, bento is the way to go. Had a poke bowl for lunch, and it surpassed my expectations. You can pretty much customize anything you want to your liking, making it perfect for vegetarians and vegans. The price is pretty reasonable considering the amount of food you get.”
“Great place, very friendly people. Staff is very helpful and friendly. Food is excellent”
“Best kept secret in Kitchener

This is a must visit if you have not been here before. There is something incredible on the menu for all

“Decided to stop in and check out their Bogo promo. They have a nice assortment of entries on the availability list. My lady had the Stir Fry and I had the Steack and Mashed. Both meals were fantastic. Great warm and friendly service by Chloe. All in all a wonderful experience and we will be back.”
“I read the reviews before I came. It’s good that I didn’t believe them. The place is incredible, atmospheric, very pleasant service and all products are fresh and from a knife. I will definitely come here again!”
“Best pizza in Ontario. Anna and Reza are hard working, and genuine. Since moving to the GTA 2 years ago, the biggest miss of Kitchener is Rustic. I promise to visit again when COVID is over! I hope you and baby (now toddler) are doing well! All the best!”
“We had a fantastic dinner at Bangkok Cuisine. It was my son’s 27 th birthday we all went out as a family. Our first visit at this place and it was exceptional service.
Tshaia served us she was extremely polite friendly gave us some suggestions on favourite dishes to order. We were so glad with her input we all enjoyed our food so much.
We have found a great take out place for the boys however I’ll be back for dining in.
My dish was extremely delicious my favourite part of the meal is the plating of the food onto the dish. Very artistic!
I recommend you have reservations this place has small seating area and it’s busy. Lots of customers coming in to pick up their orders. I can understand why, the food is just so tasty, flavourful, and we were all full.”
“First time ordering and thoroughly enjoyed the 9 items ordered!!!! Already looking forward to the next order!”
“Had a great experience at Madras Restaurant! It was very busy when we visited, but Simran was an excellent server. She was friendly, attentive, and handled everything so well despite how busy it was. Really appreciated her service and positive attitude. Would definitely come back again!”
“Nothing tasted fresh I struggled to finish the items we ordered. The crab salad had a rotten fish taste to it the sashimi was not fresh the salmon was coming apart when you picked it up the fish seemed to have a taste resembling being improperly frozen for too long.The presentation was terrible like cafeteria style. It was cheaper than all the other AYCE sushi restaurants...but for a reason it is the lowest quality in the K W area. We actually left still hungry on a positive note the waitress was really nice.

“The staff was so kind, and accommodated my request after I placed my order. I appreciate that very much, and give them a big thumbs-up!! Thank-you for great service! 😊”
“Been coming here for a couple years. GM is nice guy, staff is mostly good too but there's one thing Ive counted on that's been consistent. The pizza is certainly hot but it is never ready. We literally come about 2-3 Fridays every month between 230-430 and I dont think there has ever been both a cheese and pepperoni ready”

“June 26, 2026 We enjoyed dinner at Wimpy's , Weber St Kitchener, ON and received exceptional service from Kyle. Wimpy's is an "unsung hero" in the "restaurant world" reflecting the 50's decor and food which is "second to none." The quality is excellent and the quantity generous.”
“I went to Swiss Chalet on Highland for dinner with a friend and had a great experience. We were served by an amazing waitress named Jeneyah, and she truly made our visit special. She was very pleasant, gave us plenty of menu options, and was attentive throughout our meal. Our food was taken and delivered in a timely manner—hot, fresh, and delicious. The restaurant environment was clean and welcoming, and overall the service was excellent. I’d rate this visit a 9.5/10 and would definitely return!”

“Harvey’s at 235 Ira Needles Blvd in Kitchener was more than happy to accommodate me and my puppies, as we walked up to the drive-through window to purchase an iced tea and water. I received nothing but smiles and wonderful customer service. Thank you Harvey’s staff for helping a pedestrian on a hot summers day!!”
“I had a great experience at Popeyes thanks to Yash at the front counter. He was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and provided excellent customer service from the moment I walked in. He made the whole experience enjoyable with his positive attitude and professionalism. Employees like Yash truly make a difference, and I hope his hard work is recognized because he definitely deserves a raise. Keep up the amazing work, Yash!”

“We found this restaurant by chance while looking for something close to us and decided to give it a try. We were pleasantly surprised from the first encounter.The staff was very friendly and helped us with the description of each dish because we are not familiar with the names of the dishes. Everything we ordered was very delicious, flavorful (the spices in each dish were plentiful)and decent portions that we couldn't even eat.The naan bread was the best I've ever eaten. The prices are reasonable and the atmosphere cosy.”
“Visited Whoopsie Daisy Drinks for the fourth time today. I can’t say enough how the atmosphere, staff, and drinks are incredible.
I write this post today though because of one drink in particular. Their coffee slush is a recent summer addition to the menu. And let me tell you. It is exquisite. If you have ever had the lesser drink (ic*d c*pp) you will be blown away by how delicious, refreshing, and sweet this drink is. It blows other coffee slush out of the water. It is the perfect take on a summer coffee that also feels like a treat.
Highly recommend this drink and this coffee shop as you will be very impressed.”
“Taste of Seoul did not disappoint! Every dish is flavourful, delicious, and feels so clean and fresh. The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, making the experience even better. Truly one of the best Korean restaurants we’ve tried so far — perfect for a quick and satisfying stop in Kitchener.””
“As a longtime coffee enthusiast, I’m always exploring different coffee shops, roasters, origins, farms, and brewing methods.
Lucero Canteen surprised me in the best possible way. They feature some of the world’s best roasters, and the selection they’ve put together is truly exceptional. More importantly, everything they serve is prepared with incredible professionalism, precision, and balance.
Their pour-overs are especially impressive -beautifully brewed and expressive, bringing out everything I could hope for from specialty coffee beans.
Highly recommended for anyone who truly appreciates and understands great coffee. One of the best specialty coffee experiences I’ve had in Kitchener.”
“I’m so happy to have found this restaurant. The food was amazing. The staff were so friendly and helped my husband to decide what to order. We had the dinner for 3 and ordered it medium spiced. Great portion sizes. We also got the pad Thai burrito. Very good also! We will be back!”
“Absolutely amazing to dine in for Indian food. One of the best places for dining in Kitchener. We had the jackfruit biriyani, gongura paneer biriyani and karivepaku babycorn. We were served by Spandana who extremely sweet and very meticulous and professional. Absolutely amazing resturant 🎉 A must visit.”
