    I was looking for a special night out in Hamilton (something I'd never had to do in the past) and…read moremy research took me to an Airbnb experience that was this hidden gem. I'd never experienced anything like Saha in the past (the closest thing would be Urban Acorn Catering) but what Chef Khalil does with Saha is run a pop up restaurant at his own place in Hamilton that serves up a top of the line Middle Eastern Tasting Menu that he makes and plays host along with his lovely wife. We had a 5 course tasting menu, but with Chef Khalil being so fantastic, we ended up with a total of 9 wonderful courses (10 if you count the Arabic coffee to finish). Left feeling very full and just blown away at this delicious and wonderfully intimate experience. I won't go in to very detailed descriptions of the courses, but in all honesty every single one was a highlight, it was very difficult to pick a favourite, for me it was probably the Halibut, with Arabian tapenade that also had crispy chicken skin, I don't think I've ever had a fish dish topped with chicken and it was amazing! The feast for the eyes was definitely his dessert, a pomegranate mouse surrounded by cardamom meringues! Those 2 dishes looked amazing but tasted even better!! Red meat is my least favourite thing to eat, so I appreciated the rib of lamb not being massive, and appreciated it even more that it was a medium rare delight! What really made this evening special was the ambiance that Chef Khalil and his wife sets in their living room, a small intimate space perfect for a romantic night with a nice tall table candle and Arabic music to go with it. Throughout the evening chef would keep checking on us to make sure everything was going great, and talk about the dish we were about to have. He makes everything in house, which really blew me away, considering it was just for 2 of us and he makes such a large variety of dishes! It is BYOW, and I'm glad I messaged him beforehand to ask for his recommendation for what type of wine to bring along, since even my clumsy selection of wine worked out great thanks to his suggestion. While I found Saha through Airbnb I would recommend people just go to it via his regular website to get more info and make reservations too (cheaper than Airbnb).Chef Khalil hopes to open Saha as an intimate restaurant in Toronto next year, and I don't think there is anyone else doing a middle eastern tasting menu, but even compared to the tasting menus of O&B and the momofuku's in the world, Saha truly holds up, and I can't recommend this pop up version enough, especially for the price of close to $100/person (or less if you opt for fewer courses) it's truly a steal! I wish him and his wife the best moving forward!

    A gem of an experience! My first time trying Jamaican…read morecuisine in this new locale. I ordered the fried chicken and a beef pastry. The meal was accompanied by a rice/cabbage portion which was "to die for". All I have to say is that I could not stop savouring the amazing flavours of everything. The grandmother who prepares much of the food gave me a sample of ackee, a Jamaican fruit along with some luscious mixture of cod, along with a nice portion of bread fruit! Accompanying me were friends from Nova Scotia, one being a lady friend who was born in Jamaica. She had only excellent things to say about the meal. The interior of the restaurant was minimalistic, but very tastefully decorated with some neon lights, giving it a very cozy but high-tech ambience. In the future, I would like to try the chicken in brown sauce, which is pulled chicken simmered for hours in a brown sauce, imparting a very savoury flavor. I had the opportunity to try the pulled chicken from the plate of one of my friends, and was very , highly impressed. As I said before, I really couldn't stop eating a lot of the food once I started. That doesn't always happen in many places where I dying. I definitely will be coming back to this wonderful restaurant, and enjoyed the very warm greeting and conversation that I received from the proprietors. The prices were very reasonable, and I definitely will be a regular! Don't miss this newcomer to the St Catharines restaurant scene!

    The food is great, portion size fulfilling. The food was so good I had to return the following…read moreday. The service from the staffs are warm and courteous, very pleasant . Perfect atmosphere to relax and enjoy your meal, very clean and nice.

The portions are generous. The accompanying sauces flavourful and I appreciate that the meats weren't overly salty and just perfectly seasoned. We ordered a platter for 4 to feed 3 adults and 2 hungry kids and we have plenty to spare for leftovers. Some of us also ordered the individual build your own, which is also quite affordable and reasonably priced. My fav has to be the ribs and brisket. The Mac and Cheese disappeared quickly. The staff was really friendly and helpful and there was plenty of seating on a Sunday evening when we dined as a group of 8. Asked everyone's rating at our table, they gave this experience a 4.5-5 stars all around. Definitely a spot we don't mind returning to!

Cow big fries loaded sweet potato fries with pulled pork and slaw. Absolutely delicious! The wings were slightly overcooked as were the pulled pork a little bit to the dryer side but good value none the less. $5 Hank lager pint. Looking forward to coming back.

    If I could give 0 stars I would…read more We (along with 2 other couples) purchased an experience with #dinnerwithaview at Piedmont Park. Let me start with pros: it was a neat experience, our server was very friendly, we were with great company and overall had fun together. (We will have fun no matter what!). The concept was a great idea. The only good food was the chocolate mousse dessert! Now the cons: it was WAY overpriced for the experience. People say "you pay for the experience" bull crap! Not only do you purchase tickets in advance for food and reservation, when you go that price does not include drinks or the service charge. Additionally for the price we paid, the food was down right gross. 1. It took us 45 minutes to get a drink. 2. We were over an hour and half in before we got food 2. The rolls they served I'm pretty sure were Hawaiian Rolls with a side of garlic butter 3. The soup, I don't know what the hell was in it but by the time we got it, it was cold and I couldn't even, it it GROSS. 4. You get a choice of beef chicken and we got one of each. The chicken was so salty and insanely dry I could not eat it. The beef was supposed to be short rib, it was pot roast. 5. You had to take a golf cart to get to the restrooms. In the end they bring you a final check we knew would be a service fee and drink charges. I about hit the floor. For what they charged for drinks I could nicely stock a small bar. Beware of "death by fees". We were charged a fee to rent the dome, a service fee, a credit card fee, a processing fee when we prepaid for the dinner AND and another service fee on the final check which by the way was over the entire bill including the prepaid portion. (In which we already paid a fee) In the end the price for 6 people cost more than an all day trip to Epcot at Disney and would have got better food and drinks there. Anywho for anyone thinking of trying this out I highly recommend you don't. SAVE your money and take your friends or significant other somewhere else !!

    A great concept, beautifully executed, great staff and service however for the price we paid (my…read moregroup didn't have to pay for the dome) the dinner was lackluster, it didn't help that the food came out lukewarm to cold, and our red wine was not only cold but all in our group agreed that it was not a good wine, and while we aren't wine snobs, we are able to recognize good wine from bad. We did order the cheapest bottle, but not an excuse by any means. Prior to the dinner, I tried out their pre-mixed negroni cocktail, and while it was a decent negroni, again the cost associated with it was too over blown. I can have a (better) cocktail at some of Toronto's nicest restaurants for cheaper! I think the event gets caught up in grabbing headlines, with a celebrity chef, none of that matters if the food is below par. I got the fish and it came with tiny bones a plenty too. As I've mentioned above, full marks for the idea, beautiful deco, great service but lacking in the food and drinks department. We did attend on their first week when temperatures were still cold, so warmer temps might have made this experience better with our food and wine not being so cool on arrival.
