Celebrated Michaels birthday with a great dinner. The octopus, salmon, duck and the steak tartar were highlights. Everything was top notch. We’ll be back!

Rare is a little slice of Heaven. It's the very best restaurant in Peterborough: the food is always delicious, the atmosphere is lovely and welcoming and Mai and Andrew are the best chefs in town. My picky Dad who has never been 100% happy with the food at any restaurant, LOVES Rare. It's been a total game-changer. Andrew really knows how to cook a steak! We're so lucky to have this gem in Peterborough

Nice date night experience overall. Friendly and attentive staff, excellent mixed drinks, and some great food!My partner wasn't thrilled with the burger, but that's what you get when you order a burger (only joking). The cast-iron French bread is to die for! The pork loin was presented beautifully and did not disappoint.We'll be sure to return. Thanks again!

IF I CAN GIVE A NEGATIVE STAR FOR THIS USELESS PLACE I will.Came here for valentines with my boyfriend as my last option due to other restaurants being full.I arrived there at 8:30pm, and didn’t get my food till about 10pm. The servers gave other people who arrived after me food before me.I DO NOT recommend this place. Food was inedible.Was meant to have a full valentines 4 course meal but due to poor service, we had to end our visits at 10:30 haven only eaten 2 course. Paid $65 for a salad and a drink which were very little portions.AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COST.

Had a lovely date night dinner here on a Tuesday night when most other places in town were closed. The chef, Andrew, made us a beautiful meal. Everything was fresh, flavourful, generous and delicious. Thank you for a wonderful night out!

Had a beautiful dinner at Rare yesterday. The appetizers and entrées that we ordered were very creative and tasty. Service was excellent and the table check by Chef Andrew and Sous Chris were very much appreciated. We will definitely be back ! Thanks for a memorable evening.

Best location for a business dinner meeting I have ever been at. The soft music playing in the background was just perfect not to disturb our conversations. The service was exceptional. The food was great. I will definitely return to this restaurant.

What a lovely find! Everything about the food was fantastic. You MUST have the Vietnamese coffee at the end of your meal. Thank you for giving my wife and memorable evening. I’ll post photos next time we visit. Support this restaurant!
