“Excellent food options at this Mexican restaurant. The corn ribs and quesabirria were outstanding.

A bit disappointed to be seated at the very back of the restaurant at a makeshift table despite having a reservation. We were told other tables upfront were also reserved, but we didnt see anyone sit there during our entire stay.

Free street parking available around the restaurant“

“our server tess was great. help us a lot during our visit.and food are amazing.. greast experience. we'll come back .. thanks again tess.“

“This restaurant provide great authentic Brazilian food and great service. The staff were inviting and had no issues engaging with us when we made conversation. The restaurant was clean and tidy. I would recommend this restaurant. I would only suggest more dessert options but the passion fruit pudding was very delicious. If you are in the area definitely give it a try.“

“i’m not a big fan of Thai food, but this restaurant caugh me and I will keep going back. The service is excellent and even though there was a slightly longer wait time, that’s essentially telling of how good the food is, that people are willing to wait…but then it’s also a small restaurant. The staff are friendly and attentive.
Now, let’s talk about the FOOD! The food is the highlight of my entire week. Everything was flavorful and done just right. I had zero complaints or disappointments of any kind, where the food was concerned. The cocktails are very pretty to look at, but the alcohol to me was not strong enough for the cocktail… But I guess this is just because of personal preference.
The PRICE was less than I thought it would be. My main course, one cocktail and appetizer came to $69 before tip.
The restaurant is very loud. My friends and I were shouting at each other throughout the meal because everybody’s shouting nearby so it’s hard to hear. The decor and atmosphere in the restaurant are not appealing to the aesthetic senses, but the restaurant is clean. I would recommend this for dinner with friends or family on our regular evenings out, but not for special occasions or dating.
I will definitely be going back to this restaurant.“

“came to local the other day with my family and had the pleasure of being served by Maria! She was so pleasant, efficient and let us know immediately about the new menu items! We tried the steak and dumplings and loved them! Thank you Maria!!“

“Wow! A hidden gem I must say. Food and service were unmatched.

First we were greeted with bruschetta and a cheese/bread/olive platter. For apps we had the burrata and caesar salad — it was served directly on our plate… chefs kiss. Then for mains we had the surf & turf and paccheri gamberi — all I can say is WOW. Finally, for dessert we had crème brûlée and bread pudding.. a cherry on top to the meal.

Overall, we had an amazing dinner — great experience, definitely will be back!

Staff was amazing!“

“Great ambience, friendly staff and tasty food. Really love the beef tataki , beef tartare and salmon tartare. Ingredients are very fresh. Love the mentaiko Caesar salad; tasty and fresh. Will definitely try other selections on the menu next time.“

“The FOOD!!! It was incredible ! The servers - the cocktails - I honestly have never had a food experience like this - they truly honour their patrons - you HAVE to go here - you just HAVE to!!! Amazing place ! GO HERE !“

“The large Michelin-recommended sign at the entrance certainly sets high expectations, and in many ways, the experience lived up to that. Service was nearly flawless—attentive, professional, and warm throughout the evening. The cocktails were a definite highlight: creative, well-balanced, and expertly crafted.

The food, while good overall, didn’t quite reach the same heights. A cabbage dish had a lovely sauce, but the cabbage itself felt undercooked and was difficult to eat, with the filling being rather plain. The bureg had a rich, doughy texture, but the filling was slightly too runny and lacked structure. Dessert, though flavorful, was let down by an overly thick tart shell that overwhelmed the filling.

While the meal had strong points and was enjoyable, a few refinements would elevate it to match the Michelin-level promise the sign suggests.“

“On Saturday, November 23, 2024 me and my triplet sisters hosted our 50th Decades Themed Birthday Party!!! We had a blast! The Kingston House Restaurant is a hidden treasure. The event space downstairs was the perfect venue exactly what we were looking for. The owner Chris and his staff were very generous and accommodating which helped us create an unforgettable and memorable experience for us and our guests. The food and service were excellent and they let us decorate! If you are looking for a restaurant that feels like family with a warm and friendly atmosphere then this is the place for you!“

Staff is really friendly, bathrooms are clean and the women one very beautiful. Big TV in the back for sport events. Much better than expected.“

“The food was amazing, especially the steak absolutely juicy and delicious. The ambiance, the elegance of the place. I loved it.“

“The food was absolutely amazing. My 3 daughters and I went there for dinner during Summerlicious 2022. We didn't have reaervations and the options were a 1 hour wait to sit inside or be seated right away on the patio. We chose the patio. We were served our drinks and appetizers within 1/2 hour but our main course came about an hour after but it was worth the wait. We will definitely return🍾🎉“

“Asian fusion restaurant with amazing food and great vibes.
The chefs really know the flavors!
The sea bass was soft and buttery💗best fish I’ve had in Canada.
Tuna taco with truffle white sauce was a total hit, and the dessert was perfect!“

“Easy to work with and killer results! From consulting to the finished product they were so professional and helped my event go off without a hitch. Highly recommended for all events!“

“Have ordered their pizza three weeks in row. Feels so special and unique for the neighbourhood. We’ve tried three of their pizzas and loved all three. The crust is light and crispy with great flavour and chew. A pizza, their amazing fries (10 out of 10), and a not to be slept on green salad is just a perfect mid-week meal.“

“Came here on a weekend and loved the vibe! There was a dj spinning some good music. Staff was very friendly our server Whitney helped accommodate one of our guests who had a bit of dietary restriction that was a bit difficult. They recommended the sashimi set, colossal ebi, Ryu sliders and mentaiko shrimp udon. Would definitely come back soon to try some of their rolls! ♥️“

“We celebrated our anniversary here and couldn’t have picked a better place. The staff made the evening feel special from start to finish, even surprising us with a complimentary dessert. The food was truly exceptional — every dish felt like a work of art, both visually and in flavor. The scallops were perfectly cooked, and the wine list offered some great pairings. We also loved the cozy yet refined interior, which helped set the mood for a romantic evening. This place knows how to create memorable experiences, and we’ll definitely be back for future celebrations.“

“A dear friend introduced my partner and I to The Rushton and we are so greatful. We love this place! Thier steak and frites is THE BEST. They cook it perfectly to your choosing! And I mean perfect.
