“Scaddabush is a no brainer when it comes to comfort authentic italian food. Our server Kyra was fantastic. Amazing and warm service, super accommodating to our food modifications as we are vegetarians. Thank you so much. Always happy returning customers!“

“The Cherry House never disappoints. Michael and his team deliver impeccable service in an elegant yet comfortable setting—fine dining without the pretense. We started with a crisp Caesar salad (the only one I've ever had that I can say compete with my father's - even Dad agreed) and a beautifully balanced Caprese salad with the freshest basil, both savoury and well-executed. Even the bread and butter were exceptionally phenomenal—a simple yet telling detail of the kitchen’s commitment to quality. For mains, the halibut was perfectly tender, the rack of lamb with scallops rich and flavourful, and the filet mignon flawlessly cooked with a peppercorn sauce that was absolute perfection. Each dish showcased precision and top-quality ingredients, all complemented by a bold, complex 2013 Brunello Monticiano. A silky crème brûlée and expertly crafted Spanish coffees was the ultimate indulgence to finish this exceptional meal. Consistently outstanding—sophisticated, polished, and always worth returning to.“

“Came here Monday night with my brother and the food was amazing. Our server was Peter and he was so nice! He checked in with us once and seriously that was amazing.

“Excellent service, and excellent food. We stayed at c hotel to celebrate our anniversary as we got married there years ago and wanted to return to celebrate. We ate at Baci for the first time last night and we had the pepperoni and margarita pizza. Honestly it’s some of the best pizza I may have ever had. It had the taste of Neapolitan pizza but without the flop. It was nice and crispy with a beautiful char flavour, loaded with pepperoni and cheese. I can’t wait to come back to eat again, thanks for a great dinner!“

“My friend and I came here to celebrate our birthdays and had a wonderful experience.
Our server, Zack, was very friendly and thoughtful, and he even asked the kitchen to separate veal parmigiana and panzarotti for us, which we appreciated.
The food here is very authentically Italian and brought back memories of my trip to Italy. The birthday treats were a lovely touch.
Highly recommend the panzarotti, spaghetti with pesto, and the cannolis. The tiramisu had a authentic flavour, though it was a bit too sweet for me.
Overall, this is a great spot and I would recommend this restaurant.“

“Excellent quality food and fabulous service. Thanks to Zechariah for taking such good care of us! Everything was outstanding“

“So glad we discovered Giuseppe’s. This made for a wonderful date night experience. The interior is old but charming and comfy. One of the part-owners served us and was very friendly and attentive. The food took a little on the longer side to come out after ordering, but we didn’t mind because it was obviously all cooked fresh and with such uniqueness. We absolutely loved everything we ordered. Delicious, delicious meals. I can’t wait to go back! I highly recommend the fish entrée. Wasn’t busy at all on a Sunday night in December.“

“Its absolutely incredible! Will definitely be back soon….“

“Not only was the food absolutely amazing, but the service was phenomenal! Our server not only handled the lounge and the dining room BY HERSELF, but was also efficient and friendly! The only downside was overhearing overhearing group of ignorant people complaining unnecessarily. If you have to wait for your food here, trust me, it's more than worth it . Best Italian meal I've had in over a decade.“

“**Outstanding Experience!**
Pizza Hut on Guelph Line in Burlington is hands down my go-to spot for pizza. The service is always top-notch—friendly, fast, and efficient. The pizza is consistently delicious, with perfectly cooked crusts, generous toppings, and that signature Pizza Hut flavor we all love. Whether dining in or ordering takeout, the experience is always seamless. The staff (especially Deepa) goes above and beyond to ensure every customer leaves happy. Highly recommend this location if you’re in the area and craving some great pizza!“

“Defentily eating here again!!“

“We went to Peruviano for the first time tonight and we will definitely return. Both the service and the food was fantastic! We had the beef hearts and octopus for appetizers. For mains, my husband had the Aji De Gallina and I had Sudado de Pescado. I didn’t want any rice and was given the option of asparagus instead. The fish and asparagus were both cooked to perfection. My husband loved the chicken and enjoyed the fried cassava so much he asked for an order to take home. Portion sizes are generous. Looking forward to returning!“

“I recently ordered takeout from Tirth at the Pizza Hut on 695 Plains Road, and I was thoroughly impressed by the customer service! Tirth made the ordering process seamless and was incredibly friendly throughout. He provided helpful recommendations and ensured my order was accurate.

When I arrived to pick up my food, everything was ready and packaged perfectly. Tirth greeted me with a warm smile, making the experience even more pleasant. It’s rare to encounter such dedication to customer satisfaction, especially with takeout.

If you’re looking for delicious pizza and outstanding service.“

“I have to go with what my 6-year-old granddaughter said. She said it was the best pizza she'd ever had. And she wish she knew how to make it. We had a a pizza with mushroom, pepperoni and bacon, very thin crust which is what I love and it was really good. Delivery was awesome. They said it would take 20 to 30 minutes. It actually came sooner than that. An update when The driver was nearing my house and he was very friendly. Very nice. Everything went smooth. No problems at all. I will certainly go back to Domino's pizza and order again. This was Saturday, November 2nd.“

“I decided on the chicken Parmesan pasta and the margarita pizza, and both dishes were absolutely delicious! The chicken was tender and flavorful, making each bite a delight. As for the margarita pizza, it was easily one of the best I've had. The crust was thin and crispy, with just the right amount of cheese. The fresh tomatoes, basil, and mozzarella were perfect.“
