The second night” our 41st wedding anniversary at the end of our meal Kaitlin brought us a dessert and an anniversary card signed by all the staff that Mieriam our waitress the night before had left for us, it really ment the world to us. Thank you so much and we look forward to seeing you all the next time we are in Niagara on the Lake.”
“My favorite winery in Niagara on the lake. It’s not only a beautiful organic farm but the owner is present and so passionate about each wine you’re tasting. He sat down with us the last two times when we were visiting. Love the Chardonnay, rose and sparkling wines offered. Always one of my stops when I’m in the NOTL region. Keep up the great work Southbrook!!”

“We visit many locations across Niagara and this was the best we've been too in years. Everything was exceptional from the service, food, atmosphere. Spot on 5*”
“Fantastic and relaxing. We enjoyed Sunday lunch. Our party of 8 loved the food, the knowlegeable service (Thanks Chrissy), the atmosphere.
Note, the lunch portions are large. You will not leave hungry.
Cannot speak about desserts as we were all full, with some taking leftovers home.
Excellant value for the pricing, and just as important a great atmosphere away from the hustle of city life.
Will absolutely return.”

“Super contenti di avervi trovati qui in Canada, durante la nostra luna di miele. Abbiamo avuto l’opportunità di mangiare un buonissimo e sofficissimo cornetto ripieno di crema alla nocciola, davvero super 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 e soprattutto abbiamo avuto modo di bere, finalmente, un caffè e cappuccino ITALIANO!!!”
“Our overall experience at Masaki was great, the ambience was perfect, and the food was delicious. The service was good; the only thing i could nitpick is that no special amenity was provided, despite reserving ahead of time mentioning that we were celebrating a birthday. Would definitely come back”

“We had a great wine tasting here. Booked via the site for €12/pp (I think it’s now €15/pp?) and we could choose 4 wine samples out of the entire menu. We got a short explanation of what each wine was about from the friendly staff and they even offered us an extra sample of their ice wine to taste at the end. Would definitely recommend this place if you’re in the area and want to try a cosy wine tasting. Maybe book in advance to be sure, but they do allow walk-ins :)”
“Enjoyed a fabulous event-Caps, Corks and Forks! A wonderful celebration of student achievement at a first class institution. We were most impressed. Exceeded expectations!”
“We had a wonderful meal with great friends today. The food was delicious and pur server Mireille was so friendly and was she made us feel very welcome. This was our second visit and we will definitely be back again.”
“Such a lovely birthday dinner! All the food was amazing and the server was so friendly and attentive. The wine was great! I especially loved the house made hot sauce and the fritto misto. If I’m ever in the area again I would definitely want to go back. The dessert was very good- all the food was properly portioned and very satisfying”

“This was my second experience at Trius restaurant. We went for our anniversary this time and really enjoyed ourselves. The food is excellent and they are on the Michelin guide for a reason. I didn’t like that the bread and butter wasn’t included considering with tip and wine, this was like a $400 meal already. It was also served in a plant pot for some reason. My husband got the duck appetizer and I got the ice wine beets. He had the halibut, and I had the Cornish hen. And dessert, he had the blueberry cheesecake and I had the peach pavlova. Both appetizers were very good, the peach pavlova I think was better, but the Cornish hen was the dish of the night. Wow it was so good! Our server was very lovely, and I thought the staff was very impressive coming out with each dish and explaining every component with every course. Overall it was a great experience, and we would consider returning on another trip to NOTL.”
“A great hidden spot to watch the falls and fireworks at night without the big crowds. The view is lovely, and it’s much more relaxing than standing right at the front with everyone else. Drinks are reasonably priced, and the atmosphere makes it a nice place to unwind in the evening. Definitely worth checking out if you want a more laid-back way to enjoy the falls.”
“We had such a wonderful experience at Jackson-Triggs Winery! Our server, Tracey, was absolutely amazing – so warm, hospitable, and made everyone feel welcome from the moment we arrived. Her energy really elevated the visit and made it extra special.
Service was a solid 5/5, and the food was equally excellent – also 5/5. Everything came together perfectly for a really memorable experience. Highly recommend!”
“This was our first time there and wow you guys set a very high standard. Our wine specialist, Anya (not sure if I spelled it correctly) was just fabulous. Super friendly and very knowledgeable. We walked way with 9 bottles to share the experience with our family. Highly recommended this place.”
“Just want to give a shout to Lauren Hundert. She has been so amazing to work with and everything she does is so meticulous. She is a true asset to Arterra and their properties!!
Thank you again for your help Lauren and this gift will be perfect!”

“We were visiting Niagara-on-the-Lake and stumbled upon this place for breakfast — what a gem! I was specifically craving a homestyle meal, and this place delivered perfectly. The poached eggs were spot on, and the eggs Benedict was delicious — they kindly removed the meat and added an extra egg with fresh tomatoes on top. My husband and kid also loved the Belgian waffle, absolutely to die for! Cozy, welcoming vibes and lovely service. We’ll definitely be back next time we’re in town.”
“Our experience was absolutely phenomenal — truly up to the White Oaks standard! The atmosphere was very pleasant, the food and service were both excellent. I'd like to highlight our server, Kayla, who was exceptionally attentive, efficient, and incredibly kind with my 3-year-old daughter. We'll definitely be coming back many more times!”
“Beautiful winery with outstanding award winning wines 🍷 We really enjoyed our wine tasting with a local cheese board! Fantastic knowledgeable staff made the wine tasting fun and memorable. I recommend it 💯”

“Great air conditioning food court. Contains various restaurants, food trucks and food stores. The taste was also well maintained. I visited a NYF newly opened store. Well known specially for fries. One of my friends works there named Vedanshi. Helpful staff for guidance and food selection.
Parking: There is a huge parking lot available for lots of cars.”
“Great wine & service. The owner was very nice. They sell delicious short bread cookies, the proceeds go to a women’s shelter.”
“Large selection of Henry of Pelham premium white and red wines, plus ice wine”
“We visited here yesterday, just before going to the show and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Good selection of brews on tap, across the spectrum of styles. They also had a very nice selection of one off sours, in bottles, to sell. The bartender was very friendly and helpful. We learned a lot while chatting with him. We loved the clean, modern look of the bar area. We did not get upstairs to the patio, but we will do that next time. What a great place. We will definitely return.”

“My husband and I visited Niagara on the Lake for the first time yesterday. We stopped into Fritters on the Lake and were absolutely so impressed. Not only was the lunch recommendation on point; the fritters were absolutely amazing. However, the best thing ever was the service! Zoran was the kindest person ever and when I spoke to my family by phone later in the day-he was the first one I told them about. I’m not sure when I’ll make it back but Fritters on the Lake will be my first stop and everyone that is headed that way will have my highest recommendation. Thank you for being such a wonderful soul and those fritters certainly are YUM! -A forever customer from Columbus, Ohio (USA).”
“Such a charming little spot! The gelato flavors were really nice, and the pastries were delicious—not overly sweet, which I appreciated. Prices are a bit on the higher side, and we were hoping to see more creative pistachio-themed options on the menu. That said, if you're a big fan of pistachio gelato, this place is definitely worth a try.”
“Hands down, one of the finest craft breweries in North America. I have been a fan since they started their degree program in 2010. It has been a pleasure to follow their graduates as they move to prominent breweries in Canada and beyond. They have a permanent lineup of core beers that represent major lagers and ales from around the world. My favourite is their Strong Ale 101, a classic Scotch Ale. Most interesting to me are the small batch beers brewed by the students. The creativity and quality are extraordinary. A recent roster included 2 German Kolsch variants, a peach ale, a stylized Belgian Brown ale and a German Dunkelweizen. In the past, students released English spiced winter ales and the best Hefeweizen brewed outside Germany that I have ever tasted. Their Growler Club is a bargain. For the past 5 years or so, I convinced my family to spring for a membership to celebrate my birthday and Fathers Day. Free seminars, discounted merch, free tastings and 1 complimentary growler fill per month! Plus a free excuse to visit once a month to sample the exclusive Growler Club brew. They are currently shut down because of the Pandemic, but I encourage beer afficionados in Ontario to sample their wares by placing a phone order. Shipping is free or nominal in Ontario. Just to show my continued support, I actually made the 2+ hour round trip yesterday to pick up a case of assorted beers. Their seminars have transitioned to a Zoom based format. You can even sample along with the speaker by ordering the target beers for each session. Moderated by master brewers on staff, they are well worth attending.”
“The service here was good. They do their best to take your order and get it right. The people who work here are great. This place is a nice spot if you want to avoid the busy downtown area—especially during the summer—while still being close enough to enjoy everything nearby.”
“I go to this Wendy's once a week or two on average, because the service and food quality are consistently good; few errors/issues over the years.
I've taken one star away, because this Wendy's and its staff never put mustard on the burgers; they provide mustard packets instead! The day of this review update, I ordered two single burgers and got only two little mustard packets for my burgers.
Convenient drive-thru for take out orders.
I often order using the Wendy's mobile app, but it's still buggy and sometimes frustrating. However, functionality with saved/favourite items seems to be better now.
Usually, we are ordering burgers & fries for the family, but also enjoy the chicken burgers and salads.
Perhaps most importantly, this Wendy's always gives me some of the most delicious fries, when I ask for the fries to be "extra crispy, double-downed" - be prepared to wait EXTRA LONG if you do so - the longer it takes to bring those fries, the better!”
“I had an amazing experience at the Subway inside Outlet Collection by Niagara! The staff was incredibly polite and provided the best customer service I’ve ever had at a Subway. They crafted the most delicious sub, loaded with all the extra veggies I requested, which is so important for me as a vegetarian. Everything was fresh, and they made sure every detail was perfect. Highly recommend this location for a fantastic meal and top-notch service!”
“Great place. Probably the best Hawaiian pizza I’ve ever had. The stave was quite amazing. I definitely recommend checking out this place.”
“We had a lovely lunch get together with family visiting from the UK and sat outside on the patio as the weather was perfect. I would recommend visiting the winery restaurant at Peller Estates next time you're in the Niagara region.”

“Great for hosting a party! We had Greg’s 60th there. The party room holds 30 people. We had 22. We had pizza and wings. Veggie Pizza there is so delicious! Mel, our server, was the best! So personable and helpful all night!!!❤️”
“Everything my date and myself had here was absolutely fantastic! The meatballs, the pastas, and frutti di Mare. the Tiramisu, the coffee.”
“I had a wonderful experience at Konzelmann Estate Winery! Alex was professional and passionate. I absolutely loved learning about the vineyard’s story. Highly recommend”
“Our experience was absolutely phenomenal — truly up to the White Oaks standard! The atmosphere was very pleasant, the food and service were both excellent.
