“The atmosphere at the restaurant is so nice, the second you walk in there’s a wall of roses that set the vibe of the restaurant. The food was amazing when we went for brunch and the wait staff is so friendly and fast to serve. We were served by Malena and she was so kind. I will be coming back to try the dinner menu!“

Sugar Run Cocktail Bar • $$$
33 Queen St S, Kitchener - 2.04 miles

“This bar is in an alleyway behind the Print2Go. It’s easy to miss, but definitely worth finding.

The drink menu was great! The mocktails and cocktails had unique flavours and combinations. You can tell they really put some thought into them, and the presentation was spot on.

The staff were super friendly. Gave us great recommendations and super patient when we had questions. Great service and very efficient.

The DJ was good. Just something to keep in mind—some tables are close to the speakers, so it can get loud if you’re trying to talk. Not over the top, but something to consider if it bothers you.

Overall, a really good vibe for a night out in town.“

“The Tri City Food Ninjas stopped in to Rustico tonight. We were a group of 46. Where do I start? The food: The food is incredible. ESPECIALLY the Arancini. Unfortunately I dove face first into my pizza before remembering to take a photo. The homemade Caesar dressing is also something quite special. The service: Staff was so attentive and on their game. They had us full of drinks, appetizers, mains, and dessert (in a lot of cases) in under two hours. We have some older members, some who work midnights and such, and the timing really meant a lot to them. We have had exceptional service in the past but the organization of this small kitchen and the serving staff is impressive! Everyone under that roof tonight showed so much pride in what they were doing. We will be talking about this stop for quite some time. Thank you for having us!“

“Wow. That is the singular word to describe our experience tonight at Don Julio. Not only is the food exceptional, but the margaritas are inventive and fantastic and the service was absolutely a stand out. Truly one of the best places for tacos and margaritas in the 519! It is a rare occurrence where we can't finish.. and Don Julio humbled us! What this restaurant shines at though is service: we felt welcomed immediately and the entire staff was friendly and took the time to talk ingredients and tequila choices and recipes. It made the entire experience really next level. We will absolutely be back. A lot.“
