Caribou Restaurant + Wine Bar 727 Hewitson St, Thunder Bay Wine Bar • $$$
727 Hewitson St, Thunder Bay

“Went to the Caribou Restaurant & Wine Bar tonight to try their new midweek trattoria menu. It was well worth the trip. The flatbread was delicious, the ceasar salad was great as usual and our entrees were outstanding. When we arrived, I asked our server (Fabulous server) if I could have a little taste of the cheese sauce that was to be served with the gnocchi since the menu indicated there was Gorgonzola in it and I don't care for it. To my surprise he told me the dishes were made to order and I could order it without the Gorgonzola. I did just that and it was so good. The sauce was really delicious and the gnocchi was light and pillowy. We finished off with Nutella semifredo which we were really too full to eat. This price fixe menu was between $38 and $42 for full size four course servings (2 choices for salad and desert and Four choices for entree). Absolutely delicious and can't beat the price!”

“February 15.2024 my son and l went to Tomlin's for dinner. What a fine dining experience we had. Totally enjoyed it and then some.Absolutely great customer service, very friendly and knowledgeable. Dinner was super amazing and ambience was awesome,too. The only thing we didn't like was, maybe by mistake the A/C was on. It was rather a bit chilly in the dining room. None the less, we'll be back, next time we're in Thunder Bay again. We can only recommend Tomlin's.A must go!!!”

“From owning my own to my first time taking my wife and son to Tilted Turret I have to say awesome time. I am also looking for a new pin to add and Jurassic Park was a lot of fun. Later in the night it was a little crowded if playing a couple players at one but great atmosphere and the nachos and cinnamon treats (Flippers) were really nice and tasty. Will definitely play the pins and have a couple Caesars too.Our waitress almost looked like Elvira didn't catch her name cool look, but being on the second floor she had our food and drinks promptly to our table. A pleasure to a customer and deserved a nice tip next time.To the owners great atmosphere, fun games for everyone. It was a little crowded for me later in the night and I couldn't hear the games that you needed to do but the wife loves to cuddle so it was alright lol. All in all thank you for a great experience The drinks,service and games were awesome ?... DAD pin Signature.... Cheers TY”

I remember being well served by 2 waitresses, Corey and Sammy, both were very interactive. The manager suggested I stayed back for the band and they were amazing as well. All in all, my stay in Thunderbay would be really sad without this place. Thank you so much.”

Quality indegredients, made to order, and fresh. The lunch special has tremendous value. Johnny makes the sandwiches with care and is quick to strike up a conversation. Friendly and warm atmosphere. The grocery section is also unreal. Some unique items that are worth the trip. Pepperettes were world class. Johnny is a national treasure.”

“We were a group of 14, and the single server did a great job keeping us in food and drink. Food was tasty and hot, except for the steaks our party ordered. They were tough and for the price, not worth it. The server did make a 2nd steak for one of the guests. The burgers were huge and tasty. The salads were fresh and crisp. The sandwiches and chicken tacos were all good.”

The Sovereign Room 220 Red River Rd, Thunder Bay Gastropubs • $$
220 Red River Rd, Thunder Bay

“Great Pizza, but Other Dish Fall ShortI recently visited The Sovereign Room with high hopes of indulging in some delicious pizza. While the pizza certainly lived up to my expectations, I found the other food offerings to be rather lackluster.Let's start with the star of the show – the pizza. The Sovereign Roomtruly excels in this department. The crust was perfectly thin and crispy, with a delightful chewiness. The sauce had a well-balanced tanginess, and the toppings were fresh and flavorful. Each bite was a delightful explosion of cheesy goodness. If you're a pizza lover, this place is definitely worth a visit.However, my excitement diminished when I tried some of the other dishes on the menu. The non-pizza options, such as Duck Poutine and Gravy, were quite mediocre. The flavors seemed to lack depth, and the execution fell short of my expectations. It felt as though the focus and attention to detail that went into the pizza were not replicated in the other dishes.On a positive note, the service at The Sovereign Room was friendly and attentive. The staff was knowledgeable about the menu and provided helpful recommendations. The ambiance of the restaurant was cozy and inviting, creating a pleasant dining experience.In conclusion, if you're craving excellent pizza, The Sovereign Room is a great choice. The pizza alone makes it a worthwhile visit. However, if you're looking for a well-rounded dining experience with consistently impressive food beyond the pizza, you may want to explore other options.”
