“Consistently amazing in every way! Knowledgeable and friendly staff, attention to detail, fantastic atmosphere, and delectable menu - especially the steaks! We drive from Sudbury a couple times a year just to visit our favourite restaurant! Simply wonderful! Thank you!”
“Great spot overall. Some dishes such as mushrooms and manchego are exquisite (though it’s upsetting they try to remove this dish every time they re-invent themselves, bringing it back if enough people complain). Since the change to a cantina I haven’t enjoyed the food as much though, and they are changing yet again. Id prefer a menu that’s consistent and well executed with explorations into new cuisines rather than we need to reopen as a *insert cuisine here* restaurant. I really miss the menu that was relatively unchanged through the early 2020s. Seating couple be more comfortable. Service can be a bit slower, specifically food. Cocktails are great, and if you like scotches and tequilas/mezcals this is the place to try an extensive list. Wine nights and other tasting nights are always fun. Always happy for a lunch or an evening at picnic. Lots of great details going on here.”
“Great place, we went there for our Anniversary, food was very good, people are very friendly”
“Noticed alot of new things tonight. New dishes, new blameless candles, new water carafe and glasses at the tables. Nice touch, thank you keeping your food consistent. VERY important to us as we are regulars for this reason.”

“I was served the most delicious burger I’ve ever eaten. The made in house patty was succulent and cooked to perfection. The boar bacon was juicy. The pickled onions were the perfect pucker-y condiment. The local cheese was divine. Pair that with their top notch fries, beautifully seasoned and served with a house made ketchup. I’ve been dreaming about it since. Our server was wonderful, A1 service! She (I can’t recall her name) came for a quality check and I turned with a single tear running down my cheek and asked her to hold me, I was having a spiritual moment with my meal. The Innis & Gunn was cold and the lines were clean! The atmosphere was warm and welcoming. I cannot say enough good things about this place and the food that we had! We will be back - and that’s a promise!!!”
“absolutely amazing food. fantastic service. Great prices. we have never been disappointed ever. we go once per week at least. our favorite place !”
Restaurants with Delivery
“We have been getting cakes here for years. This year we ordered a cake with a photo on it and it was absolutely amazing! The photo quality was next level and they added sprinkles to match the colours in the photo which was such a nice touch/surprise. My son was so happy with his cake. Always a 10/10.”

“I am sad to say that I don't have a photo of my breakfast to add... but that's because it looked so delicious I didn't even take one. and I ALWAYS take photos. my eggs were cooked perfectly 👌 which I am SUPER picky about. toast was buttered to perfection and the staff, although busy were polite and quick to clear tables. I would recommend 💯”
“Always looking for a fully accessible restaurant overlooking the waterfront and Fare fit the bill. Will add the the bottom of the ramp from the parking lot requires some attention as the surface has gaps and is uneven.
Overlooking Old Brewery Bay, set in Leacock Historical Site grounds the restaurant appears unassuming. We were greeted immediately and though early for our reservation, were given the choice of patio or dining room and seated promptly in the dining room. Our server Shannon was attentive, helpful and friendly. My dining companion chose the Cod which was fresh and flavourful. I ventured to have the Lamb Risotto, a meal entree which was new to me. The lamb was tender, savory with the rice and vegetables absolutely delicious.
There was more than ample room for my wheelchair, as dining room is spacious.
Will definitely return to Fare, if not during this visit in the area it will be during our next.”
“Best wings in Orillia ✌️ Cold beer, good tunes, and cool servers ! We love this place!”
“It was very busy because of the 2 can dine for $19.99 promo, but once we were seated, Tanya took our order right away and our meal arrived in good time, and delicious as always.”

“On the hunt for the best fried chicken sandwich in Orillia. Couchiching won’t be at the top for that, but it’s still a great spot. Celebrated my big bro’s bday here and the vibes were good. Sandwich (mid tier) was solid, sweet potato fries were okay (mid tier), but the sunshine city beer (gold tier) will keep me coming back every time. Reasonable prices.”
“This place truly is a hidden gem in Orillia. Food is carefully prepared with amazing creative presentation and flavours that are above and beyond expectations each time I try a new dish. This by far is my favourite spot to dine in Orillia after dinner you can take a lovely walk down to the lake to enjoy the sunset.”
“All the food was great quality. Highly recommend this restaurant if you’re a local or visiting. They also had really fun icecream flavours! I like the durian one.”

“Everything I have tasted from Kathy’s Kakes has been amazing! From Easter chocolate eggs, chocolate sponge toffee, cupcakes, and chocolate bombs for hot chocolate, just to name a few! I cannot recommend her enough!! Please place your order with her today or check her out t the Orillia Farmer’s Market!!”
“Had dinner today at Brewery Bay, thought the food was great. Good Service, food came out quick and hot. Great list of drinks, good Canadian wine. Will return for sure and will recommend to friends.”

“Whenever my wife and I spend the night at Casino Rama we always have breakfast at The Weirs restaurant! This visit Carrie was our server and service was excellent! By mistake I ordered the Benny Breakfast instead of the Jackpot Breakfast, Carrie offered to exchange my breakfast even though the mistake was mine. I really appreciated her sincere offer and her kindness.”

“I've been at this location to get gas and eat at A& W at least 20 times over the years and never stopped here for ice cream... Yesterday was the first day! It was awesome! Tons of flavors to choose from and the staff was really courteous and friendly. The place was packed! A little tough with the drive-thru as we kept losing our server but they were apologetic. They could use more indoor seating and/or some umbrellas! Extremely hot out and little shade. Parking lot was full and very difficult spot to get out onto the highway again! Suggest turning right and turning around at the next light if you want to go left (north).
Didn't use the washroom so I have no comment about those.”
“excellent service . have been coming in frequently to take a break from work . zeeva is excellent always friendly and kind at the front counter . the food is always excellent and made quickly ,your always welcomed when you come in .its a very friendly atmosphere all the time ,quick and efficent service .”
“Ordered through Uber Eats, but I didn’t realize they use their own delivery drivers. Since I couldn’t track the order, I called to make sure everything was okay. The staff were friendly, let me know it would be there momentarily, and it literally arrived at my door right after I hung up!
The pizza was phenomenal—fresh, hot, and honestly one of the best pizzas I’ve had in a long time. Great customer service and excellent food. I’ll definitely be ordering from 241 Pizza again. Highly recommend!”

“We were in town for one night for a concert and had made plans for dinner at Tre Sorelle. I had the pesto ravioli with mushrooms, spinach and sundried tomatoes. It was the perfect marriage of flavors and textures. My wife had the veal parmigiana. The veal was tender and the sauce was spot on. The portions were perfect and the service warm and friendly. Highly recommend, and would happily visit next time in town.”

“5 STARS PLUS ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️+ The BEST dining out experience in a VERY LONG time !!! Our waiter Mike was incredible 🥰 The service and food was exceptional and before we left we made another reservation. My husband and I are Italian and the food has such deep flavour all made to perfection, everything from the start to the very end (appetizers to dessert) was the BEST ! We both left there so extremely satisfied… experience it yourself - you will NOT be disappointed. It’s our favourite restaurant now, hands down beats any other restaurant in Orillia. Worth every dollar spent there. Can’t wait to go there again ❤️”
“Absolutely the best chicken I’ve had in a long time! The flavor is outstanding, perfectly cooked every single time, and the freshness really stands out. The staff are always polite, professional, and make you feel welcome. Great atmosphere, fast service, and excellent value for money. I genuinely look forward to eating here whenever I’m nearby. Highly recommend this place to anyone—you won’t be disappointed! 🔥🍗”
“We went in this evening 7/10/24 for something different ! First time and we were wowed 😋. From the menu choices, then the staff. They were truly wonderful. It was the most memorable dinning experience for me as a newbie to Orillia to date … And the food was so yummy 5 stars for sure. Thank you Osmows Janet D Orillia”
“being in Orillia for just over a year now, I am very confident to say the Mr. Sub at 425 west street has been the most reliable choice for our "go to" restaurant. Marcus Sadeghi along with his parents are always pleasant and kind. Honestly something that sound's small to some people, We feel is very worth while giving thank's and appreciation to. It was another great lunch today, and as always nice to chat with Marcus.”
“Halie was my waitress, quick to acknowledge, friendly, efficient, check that everything was good with the meal. This is becoming my place to enjoy an excellent breakfast, and Halie was my waitress again. She, more than anything else, brings me back to this establishment. People buy from people, not businesses, and I would suggest you do everything you can to keep the lady as your representative. Probably something in the vein of a substantial bonus, or raise would help. Even though the peameal servings were mighty thin, I'll be back.”
“Service was amazing. We were put on the bar side and I personally dont like drunk people because they can be loud and sometimes mean. We waited a little bit of time for the food but the server explained why. Overall the food was great and so was everything else.”
“Have had great experience ordering a big platter of various rolls. Always delicious and fresh tasting and presented beautifully. The owners are delightful, friendly couple. Our go to place in Orillia.”

“I would like to comment on the Fabulous service I received from the Franchisee Owner on an item I had purchased for my Husband.

The staff are friendly and knowledgeable and it stands to reason when the Franchisee Owner has Outstanding Customer Service Skills too! Thank you very much Barb! I sure appreciated your quick response and incredible Customer Service I received tonight! Wishing you and your Booster Juice much success :). JE”
“Amazing place to visit-lots of memories here from being a kid . The place may have upgraded slightly but still same classic vibe. The City should consider making this a historic land mark. So much history and the French family have kept this excellent eatery alive for so many decades, serving so many people. Its a definite star of what the sunshine city is all about.”
“One of my favourite places to eat! I’ve been to the Orillia location a few times now and every time I have had an excellent experience. The customer service was amazing and the employees were super friendly and very kind! I got my regular salad bowl order which was so good, the lettuce and other veggies were fresh and delicious. I will definitely be visiting this Pita Pit lots more times in the future!”
“I have no idea what the man's name that runs the Orillia location but he is amazing. He is there everytime I go in alone or with my sister. Today my sister went in by herself for the first time since ive moved and he asked her why she was without me. Honestly that warmed my heart to be remembered! So shout out to the Orillia Freshii for being so welcoming and kind! Food is always fantastic 10/10 recommended food stop in Orillia!”
“good review: very friendly staff, always happy and chatty, gets most of our orders right, all food is always fresh bad review: can't get a simple tea right large tea TWO bags ONE and A HALF milk (even tho its right on the screen), coffee is always old and always serves the expired coffee before the fresh one, was told today that 2 and a half milk is not a big difference then 1 and a half milk. THEY ALSO SAID THEY WILL NO LONGER REPLACE MY TEA B.C ITS A EVERY OTHER DAY THING. this is NOT what tim hoetons stands for and you would never tell the owners or head office this.... would you?”
“Even though the store was super busy, Ridham and Jigar handled the rush like absolute pros! They stayed incredibly calm, fast, and friendly under pressure. Ridham crafted the sub perfectly without rushing the quality, and Jigar kept the line moving smoothly with excellent customer service.”
“Went here with a colleague while ona work trip (twice!). Food was fantastic, good prices, and I enjoyed the comfortable atmosphere; booth seating separate from other diners, interesting and warm decore. Service was to-the-point; not friendly but not rude - again, kinda how I prefer. 100% plan to return next time I'm in the area.”
“Went on June 19th for the free personal sized pizza because Canada won and it was so good! They cooked them right then and there as people came in which was nice since you got a fresh pizza and not one that was cooked and sitting a bit. Super friendly and nice staff as well.
Thank you for the free pizza!”
“An absolute gem! The presentation and flavor profiles of every dish were outstanding. You can tell immense care goes into the menu and overall ambiance. The staff was professional, attentive, and made us feel truly valued. Thank you for a memorable evening!”
“We placed a huge order for take out today and it was ready within 20 minutes, and delicious!”

“We had our Big Cedar Estates Christmas dinner here on Dec 13th..116 people attended, and thoroughly enjoyed a 3 course turkey dinner. The food was amazing, and the portions were larger than most. We received nothing but compliments, which was good considering the Sinnottes are the new proprietors. They went over and above to make us happy, and we would highly recommend them to anyone. Well done!”

“Our group has hosted our Thursday lunches at Lot 88 since golf season finished fall 2025 thru to April 30th 2026. Our server Sammy Everett has always been amazing. She is extremely friendly and remembers what every one of our members has ordered previously. She goes out of her way to ensure our lunch experience is the BEST. The food has always been very good. The environment and atmosphere always great. Our group varies weekly from 8 to 25 and Sam always has every chair and table ready for our arrival. We will be back again in October 2026.”

“I was heading to Muskoka lake from Toronto. I ordered to dine in from kiosk machine. The whole crew was busy with dine in & drive through. Everyone was attentive & producing more.
The Lady manager on site was amazing with her choreography for the cleanliness, food, service.
She handed out a reflector vest to one of the staff to deliver an order to the parking lot. This shows care for the staff, customer & safety first protocol.
I wish all the best for the team & to achieve more greatness.
Thank you Team!”
