Bought the Christmas dinner this year and it blew everyone's minds. The video was lovely and it was easy to put together. Just Delish and super good value! Impressed. Also the white truffle labneh - insane. Thank you Chef!

For and service were excellent. We found the space noisy which made conversation a little difficult. We will try to pick a less busy time in the future. Will definitely dine here again.

Didn't actually eat at this place. But I certainly intend to go back to eat.
Was working an event and just watching the beautiful dishes coming out was scrumptious enough. Everything looked like they were right off a magazine cover.
Their Sunday brunch looks to die for, just by reading what is offered up.
Hopefully soon.

Our third time there. Twice for breakfast and once for dinner. The blind menu is absolute delicious. Our wait staff and the chef who introduced himself are extremely knowledgeable and very welcoming. I highly recommend

We ended up here when our plans fell through and WOW, what an experience. The food was incredible (GET THE BAO BUNS! TRUST ME!) And the service was amazing. Chef Blackie served our table at one point. This was a wonderful accident.
We are so coming back.

Got the blind tasting menu for both of us and it was pretty good. Portions were good, we were stuffed by the last item. Nice variety between Asian inspired dishes, unique dishes, and more classic Italian ones. Drinks were pretty solid as well. Big mention to the chef who was serving us this night, made it a great experience and was very attentive, provided great insight into the dishes and was a great addition to the night. It's a pricey dinner but for a once in a blue moon experience it was great

The food was utterly abysmal, an assault of grease and salt with zero finesse. Hard to believe the host shelled out $20,000 for this catastrophe of a reception.
As someone who’s dined at countless fine establishments, this stands as the worst experience I’ve ever endured. Thankfully, I didn’t spend a dime on this debacle.
Do yourself a favor and steer clear if you don’t want to destroy your wedding meal and memory.

Outstanding Customer Service!
I’ve never experienced service this exceptional anywhere else. My husband and I celebrate every wedding anniversary at Next, and for our 10th, Chef Blackie personally served us – such an honor! We were so captivated by the flavors that we forgot to take any photos. The blind sharing menu is our favorite, and we were thrilled to see the deep-fried cheese curds back on the menu.
The service has always been impeccable. We felt warmly welcomed and truly enjoyed every delicious dish. I was particularly impressed when a guest at the table next to us mentioned her steak was cold – Chef Blackie immediately replaced it with a fresh plate within minutes. Incredible attention to detail!
We’ll be coming back for many more anniversaries!

I had my wedding reception here, and everything was so great we came back to celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary! The atmosphere is awesome, but even more so the service is outstanding and the food is some of the best I've ever had. Hats off to Chef Blackie - an overall phenomenal spot to eat at NeXT!

Extraordinary experience! We hosted our daughter’s engagement party for 35 people at NeXT a week ago; everything was perfect. Right from the planning stage to the close of the event, Gillian and the staff were excellent, attentive, and accommodating. We were especially pleased with the menu request accommodation and attention to dietary restrictions. Guests raved about the food and overall experience. Highly recommend!
Vegetarian options: Accommodated our request for a mostly vegan menu. Everything tasted delicious!

We had dinner for our 10thanniversary. Our experiencewas outsta ding. Chef zblackie's culinary ofering is a gastronomic joy. I have followed him from his days way back at NAC when I first encountered his talented cuisine. Our selection last night qas the chef's blind choice. 8 separate courses 4 savory & 2 sweet. Each course was shareable. My husband and I otprdered this 3xpeeience. Each and every dish was intedelicious and the presentation of each dish ws elegant in its simplicity of presentation. The restaurant environment welcoming and fresh in styling. Each staff member I encountered were gracious, accommodating and professional. We will return soon. Thank you fo ra memorable evening from start to finish

The atmosphere was elegant, vert quiet and intimate. Service was wonderful and attentive, informative and knowledgeable.
One of the best meals I've experienced outside of downtown. Actually for the money it was reasonably priced and good value for the portion size.
For being in the suburbs is was the best hidden gem I've been too. Highly recommend!!

We had dinner and it was a very fine dining and romantic evening. It would've been better if the server had some more assistance to make the service for personable but he did an excellent job of getting orders right and also recommending a vegetarian option. My boyfriend and I had a fantastic experience there. Great oysters!!

Overall fantastic dining experience. They accommodated our large group of 12 and even allowed us to bring our own birthday cake. The food had very large portions and even with two starters and two mains we had to bring some food back home. The dishes were well balanced and delicious. Pretty comprehensive wine menu with some high end offerings. A few friends for the tasting menu and my suggestion is to arrive hungry because it was a substantial amount of food. Would recommend!
