I had an absolutely wonderful Easter dinner at Tulip with my family. Seriously, every single dish was fantastic. Bit of a bummer though, the beef cheek was all out - but understandably so, it's always a crowd favorite! We diverted our culinary adventure to the salmon, pork chop, and Tulip's famous Caesar salad instead. Oh boy, was it a delightful detour! You have to try their Caesar salad, it's a game changer. I must also mention our server, Este, who was incredibly charming and went out of her way to accommodate us. Can't wait for our next visit, it's always a special time at Tulip.

WOW! Ce restaurant est absolument incroyable. L'endroit est très beau, l'ambiance est calme et sophistiquée. Le service était absolument parfait, notre serveuse était sympathique, souriante et professionnelle. Et que dire de la nourriture....absolument fabuleuse. Tant pour les yeux que pour la bouche. Je recommande vivement cette adresse! Vraiment hâte d'y retourner.

My partner and I had an amazing time during our Valentine's Day dinner at Tulip. Their creative and unique approach to the way their create their dishes was outstanding. Each appetizer, entre and desert were well-plated, delicious, and unlike anything we've had before. The service itself was incredible as our server was very personable and friendly while being highly attentive to our requests. Whilst the food was coming out at a slower pace than most other restaurants, it's understandable due to how much time and effort goes into creating the dishes. The restaurant itself had a great ambience and was well decorated, but did not feel as intimate due to the open-front that faced the hotel lobby. With all of this being said, the experience itself was amazing and is something to remember. I would definitely come back as the overall value, service, and the amazing food is worth every penny.

The establishment advertises photos of the restaurant but then will trick you and sit you in the lounge. This was supposed to be a valentines meal but I really regret booking it. No wonder that it was one of the last places available. We were sat at a dirty table then moved to clean one near the lobby of the hotel just feet from where guests were checking in and the cold winter wind from the front door. Thank you for the romantic setting which included kids running around our table! We were also handed two French menus even though the waiter was conversating with us in English. What really made the evening was the terrible food. The carbonara was made with cho mein noodles and the sauce was salty and acidic. I'm not even sure what the burger was made of. Extremely disappointing experience.

An absolutely wonderful experience. Outstanding food preparation, service impeccable and overall a wonderful experience. First time we have been there but definitely not the last. Everything about Tulip is A++.

My guest and I enjoyed an incredible lunch by one of our community's top chefs, David Vinoya. I had the salmon and my guest had beef cheek with mozzarella cups in a birdcage on a bed of pesto split peas and lentils. Finished off with crème brule. One of the best lunches I have had in our city. Highly recommended

We had such a great experience eating at Tulip for a private event. It was a party of 14 and everything from the coordination, the ambiance, the food and most especially the management team and everyone involved in serving our food was just incredible. They were so accommodating to the dietary needs and preferences and most of all had such a welcoming and kind personality that just made everyone feel good about being there to celebrate the holidays. I would definitely go back and a huge thank you to Sunny who helped me coordinate it all and ensure its success.
Also, props to the chef for such beautiful presentation and delicious food!

Tonight’s dinner was truly one of the best we’ve experienced in the capital region this year!

Our server, Duke, was exceptional, hitting every mark of outstanding customer service to ensure that we had a memorable dining experience.

It was also a pleasure to see Sab, another server, visiting our table, which added an extra layer of attentiveness to our evening. It’s clear that this establishment prioritizes teamwork and genuine hospitality.

Compliments to the manager, PK. Despite the bustling dinner crowd, he took the time to personally check in on every table, ensuring that no one was lacking anything. His commitment to excellent service was evident, and it made a remarkable difference to our experience.

Now, let’s talk about the food. The menu is both diverse and original, showcasing high-quality ingredients and culinary expertise. Each dish we sampled was a testament to the cooks’ skill and creativity, leaving us excited for our next visit:)

“Tulip Restaurant was an incredible experience that brought back a wave of nostalgia, especially with their French pork chop, which was nothing short of high cuisine. Every bite was exquisite — tender, perfectly seasoned, and cooked to perfection. It reminded me of the kind of meals my dad would have loved, where the food itself feels like an art form. The ambiance was warm and elegant, with a touch of charm that made me feel at home. The service was attentive, adding a level of care that made the evening feel extra special. Tulip Restaurant isn’t just a place to eat; it’s a place to create memories. Highly recommended for anyone looking to savor exceptional cuisine with a touch of nostalgia.”

I just wanted to share how surprised I was by the food they serve here. It’s definitely not your typical hotel deep-fried stuff. Instead, they have some really interesting flavors that caught me off guard. It’s such a refreshing change!
