I will say pastas here can be a tad pricey being around $30 for most of them, but they are so so good. I ordered the 271 west shrimp pasta ($28) and it was fantastic. Gigantic tiger shrimp that are seasoned to perfection. Extremely rich tomato based sauce, with great linguine. I was blown away by the quality as it truly was amazing. Kitchener has some great italian food it seems and this place is a top of my list.

I had high expectations for Hexagon given its Michelin status, but the overall experience was…read moreunderwhelming. ​To be fair, the food was pretty good, but it doesn't stand out compared to other Michelin-starred spots I've visited. ​The real issue for me was the service and atmosphere. It simply didn't feel like a fine dining experience. There was no coat check offered, which is a basic standard for a restaurant of this caliber. On top of that, the parking validation wasn't working that day, adding a bit of frustration to the end of the meal. ​Tip: If you do go, try to visit on a Sunday so you can park on the street for free and avoid the garage fees.

The soup was rich and comforting and paired well with bread. The baguette came with some seasoned butter. It was a nice combination but I would have appreciated if they just went the extra step to make a compound butter. I was craving something a hearty and rich, so the croque monsieur was perfect for that. The burger was also good, but we asked for sauce on the side and it still came on the burger. Both entrees came with crispy thin cut fries which gave a great textual contrast. For the food quality, the prices are actually quite reasonable. 4/5 would happily return.

Mom got adventurous and had the halibut which she enjoyed every bite with her eyes closed to enhance the flavours she described as phenomenal. I had, the only vegetarian (not vegan...as there is no vegan option on the menu) option, the Ukrainian dumplings... all I can say is WOW!!! The flavours from first bite to final notes were fresh, creamy and delicious!!! The prices were a little steep, and a little taken aback to have to pay for bread and butter, but even their home made focaccia was moist and crispy at the same time and the perfect tool to ensure all the sauce was where it belonged from our plates to our tummies! Our dinner was paired with a bottle of their cabsauv without any regrets. Make the reservation... your taste buds will thank you!!!

We opted for a weekday lunch of discovery menu, where they accommodated me for a vegetarian menu to meet my dietary needs! Bravo! All the seven courses were unique and delicious, and made you full. The drive and location is beautiful. We sat by the window on a snowy day, it was beautiful and romantic. The server introduced himself and was very attentive. The place is good for an intimate conversation or for a group meeting. Has both big round tables as well as cozy seating. Starting from Amuse bushe - which was a dried leaves with some jelly, it was unique and pretty delicious for leaves without any salt or spices, served on the upside down glass. The mushroom was delicious, pretty balanced. My mains had 3 different flavours on roots vegetables with puree of cauliflower, curry spice and carrots. Every bite tasted different. We got a complimentary miniature dessert plate, which was as good as our main dessert! I am going there back for another special celebrations.

The restaurant strikes an ideal balance between fine-dining formality and genuine warmth, helped by live piano music and a calm, elegant room. Food: Dinner began with two appetizers: the Lobster (autumn-spiced lobster, winter squash, Armagnac velouté) and the Ricotta Gnudi with winter truffle. Both were beautifully prepared and set a strong tone for the evening. Between courses, we were served a white truffle risotto, which became one of the standout dishes of the trip -- aromatic, silky, and rich without being heavy. For mains, we ordered the black cod and the venison, each cooked with precision and very well balanced. The meal ended with a maple-forward dessert that fit the season and the setting perfectly. Vibe: The dining room feels intimate and refined without being stiff. The combination of soft piano, candlelight, and the heritage property setting creates a memorable atmosphere. Service: Service was excellent across the board. Staff were knowledgeable, attentive, and thoughtful, and this extended beyond the restaurant -- every person we interacted with on the property carried the same sense of care and professionalism. Overall: Langdon Hall offers one of the best fine-dining experiences in Ontario. The quality of the food, the warmth of the service, and the overall atmosphere make it well worth the trip, whether for a special occasion or simply to enjoy a destination meal.

They really need coaching. We tried to engage our server, he had trouble with eye contact, he handed glasses with fingers on the tops of glasses, where you drink from. I believe the facility person overseeing the team should have been coaching the wait staff, she was disengaged! I know its a school, but maybe teach servering too!
