Based on the name and website description of this restaurant, I expected to find a trendy wine bar…read morewith delicious small plate offerings. There was an advertised dress code when it opened but am unsure if it is still there. I think the restaurant is having an identity crisis. If you went to this restaurant based on the name/description you would be disappointed. If you knew that it was a Vietnamese restaurant with a lovely owner and pretty good food, then you would be content. Diners who want Vietnamese don't know it's there, and the guests who visit based on the name Vineyards will be disappointed. The restaurant is still under reno and the tables/seating/atmosphere leave a lot to be desired. This restaurant may be the only place in town that has banh mi and I think they would do well to advertise that. I would recommend that they change their name, advertise the food offerings (banh mi, dim sum, noodle bowl, rice rolls) and change their hours to accommodate the surrounding businesses Tues - Sat opening at 11. Their website currently states 11-11 Thurs to Sat. They only open at noon the days I have been there. The food is alright, but the atmosphere leaves a lot to be desired.

Very nice restaurant with good service. I ordered the oysters which were properly cleaned and…read morefresh. They have a decent cocktail selection and a well-stocked bar. Our waiter Alex provided us with great service the whole time. The shrimp and scallop linguine was his recommendation and I enjoyed it. If you are in Thunder Bay this is definitely the place to go for a nice dinner!

Just the fact I got bed bugs from their restaurant. :-( The only place I visited while in Thunder Bay for the night where I sat down, then it was back to the hotel. So, unfortunately I have to give it a one star. Good thing I found out about the bed bugs before I got home. (Was able to bag all my travel clothing, and stop the problem before even entering my home). Otherwise, I would have given it 4.5 stars.

Enjoyed a birthday dinner for 2 at Caribou. The table was on the smaller side as the restaurant…read moreitself is smaller and tends to be pretty packed. The blackened pork chop was cooked to perfection - moist and juicy. I really enjoyed the apple sauce and vegetables, which paired really nicely with the pork. The Malfadine pasta was also nice. It was my first time trying rabbit - if I didn't know better, I would have believed it was chicken. It wasn't gamey in the slightest. The truffle flavour was more subtle than I expected. Though it's hard to critique the cook on either dish, I wouldn't say it was outstandingly delicious or unique. I am not necessarily eager to come back to try other things on the menu. To our surprise, the restaurant also gave us 2 desserts on the house! The cheesecake and tart were both very good and not overly sweet. Though I wish I had ordered their signature raspberry dessert instead of the lemon tart as it seems more unique. Overall, very good food and service. Would recommend for a special occasion.

Saturday night heading into Caribou after a long day of hiking and exploring Thunder Bay…read more The restaurant was a bit of distance from all the hotspots downtown and we were a little concerned with the location. Once we stepped in, we were warmly greeted with a lively dining room, and were quite surprised with the diversity and uniqueness of the menu. We started with Canadian old-fashions, and crab cakes. For dinner had their bus 16 oz steak special which was very nicely done, and the rabbi pasta. We Wish we had more room to try the pizzas because they looked great. We Finished it off with the peanut butter cheesecake. The waitress was charming and very helpful with making our decisions, even though she was supporting a very busy room. A real gem for thunder Bay, great place and great value. It's well worth the five minute drive away from the touristy downtown choices.

I was literally dumping salad dressing on my fish and rice just to flavor. They automatically add a 20% gratuity to the food so they can pay their staff a " living wage." I am a very generous tipper, but I also tip on service. Our waiter never came back after we got our food or asked if we wanted more drinks until we were finished. He was kind of condescending to the people behind us when they asked questions about the menu. Unfortunately, if they don't have to work for their tip, they're not gonna do much more than they have to. My husband's chicken was pretty good, that got it up from two stars to three. We wouldn't go back.

The Swedish cream with lingonberries is to die for. We come back every year. I'm already anticipating next year's visit.

While having a beer at Lakehead Brewery, the bartenders gave us some dinner ideas. We chose Nook; I had already read about it during an internet search. My peperoni pizza was delicious and my wife's pasta was also delicious. We brought half of the meals home. Service was very good. Servers were helpful and professional. We really enjoyed the "openess" of indoor dining area. There were no tables available on the patio. Nice vibe with people talking and enjoying their meals. If we lived in the area, the Nook would be on our "go to" list. I highly recommend.
