Came here for Londonlicious with a dear friend of mine! I…read moreordered the ceviche, smoked salmon trio, and the cheese and fruit board. We were dearly craving the roasted apple featured on their online menu before, but it turns out that the apple has been replaced with the homemade mulled wine and biscotti! Meanwhile, she ordered the Londonlicious autumn salad, the vegetarian toasts, and the creme brulee. While the food wasn't drop-dead amazing, the service was great! I had attempted to get a reservation the day before, but was told that they were fully booked. When we arrived, they had originally wanted to seat us down at the bar, but after considering it, they offered a table for two that we would have to return in an hour. That being said, we never felt rushed in our meal - they never hinted at us to leave, even when the other couple who had made the reservation arrived Instead, they sat that pair down at the couches, and asked us politely if it would be okay to give us the bill now. They were very friendly and considerate (and thus, the extra star)! Our appetizers came first, and we were quite surprised at the small portion sizes. My ceviche was tiny! The cracker/chip was well-done (very crispy and tasty), but there was very little tuna - just very little to eat in general. My friend thoroughly enjoyed her brie at first, but then found it overly heavy after a while. This was a recurring theme, as it turns out all their vegetarian options have brie (she's vegetarian). Our entrees came next, and again, I was quite shocked at the smaller portion size. That being said, I found it adequately filling, and I was actually fairly satisfied by the end of the main meal! The smoked salmon was delicious! My absolute favourite was the pickled onion one... the slight sourness balanced out the saltiness of the salmon perfectly. The raspberry compote was good, but a little too sweet. I was excited to eat the caviar one, but found that they added too much of the herb garlic aioli. I believe there was some dill and/or cream cheese in it, which drowned out any flavour of the caviar/salmon completely! This was my least favourite, because it was quite heavy. My friend's vegetarian toasts came in three pairs (totalling six). I tried her grilled peach and candied pecan one. Although I enjoyed it, I wasn't a fan of the cheese spread. I think it would have been tastier without it! She was unable to finish the pear and brie ones, mainly because by that time she was quite full/sick with the heavy brie (it came with her appetizer as well). The desserts came last. By this point, I regretted ordering the cheese and fruit board, because I wanted something light to finish the wine. Thinking back, the homemade mulled wine would have been a delightful choice. Anyway, I polished the fruit and left the cheese to take away. My friend ordered the creme brulee - and it was HEAVENLY. It was so utterly creamy and sweet inside. Perfectly executed, with the right brulee on top! Although it was slightly pricey (such is the student life), I did enjoy the experience. Don't know if I'd come again, but it is a lovely date spot and a place to chill with friends!

Brch & Wyn is a Stratford, well Ontario for that matter, gem! I LOVE this cozy place. The stone and…read morewood beams give it a fairytale-esque ambiance. The size is perfect for any event, both intimate and spacious. There is a good mix of smaller tables and larger ones that accommodate parties of any size. There is even a cute area in the back with living-space styled seating that offers a very homey feel. The restaurant is so clean, you literally feel like you could eat off the floor. I first visited to attend a Drag Brunch for Crystal Quartz. I've since returned for more of the same, plus a very special Valentine's Day Event that included a five-course dinner and belly-dance show. One of the things that makes this place so wonderful is the inclusion and safe space for both patrons and performers. The owner is so kind and just a wonderful human being. He will welcome you and make you feel like family, along with the rest of his amazing staff. I've never had better service or more wonderful gluten-free food! Unlike other restaurants, there is always something I can eat and it's not just a steak or salad. In fact. the five-course dinner had something for those who cannot eat gluten at every course and it felt like something special, something you can't just get anywhere. There are so many places I go and get cocktails and they either baby down the size, scrimp on the alcohol and overfill the ice. The do not do that here. The cocktails are well worth the price. Excellent mimosas at brunch too! My favourite item for brunch is the GF bfast sandwich. Absolutely delicious! You also get a choice of tots or salad, so if you're feeling more on the healthy side or hungover side, you're covered, lol. I felt like royalty at the 5-course dinner; the food was so elevated and very much fit with the Mediterranean theme of the belly dance event. The first course was bread, olives and pickled (I believe it was onion, could have been beet) and they had two different GF breads for me! Also came with walnut spread and tzatziki sauce, sooooo good! There was a brown butter carrot soup I couldn't get enough of and fried hallumi cheese with pomegranate and honey dukkah, so indulgent. The main was beef kofta on an aromatic salad, absolutely delicious! Dessert for me was ice cream with fresh fruit and choco sauce. The entire dinner was just beautiful. And they had a special love potion drink they were making with gin, but my wonderful server did tequila for me on request. The table was gorgeous with a little candle. I felt very pampered, as I always do at this spot. The price was right too, especially on Valentine's Day and for 5 courses. The belly dance event was so wonderful too! There was a male dancer who works with Crystal Q and he handed out roses during his dance. As a 50-something woman who hasn't gotten flowers in over a decade, it was a touch that made even me tear up a little. All three dancers were so talented, and the show was breathtaking. But all the events at this wonderful venue are always something special. If you see an event booked here on Insta, get your tickets! The performers won't disappoint, the staff is second to none, and the food is an experience. I can't wait to visit again and cannot recommend Brch & Wyn enough!

Wow. What a fantastic evening at Grace! Kudos to Alex our…read moreserver who was so animated and knowledgeable and also makes the most delicious fortified wine. Your port was fantastic and reminded me of my father's homemade pear brandy. You made the evening incredibly enjoyable! Thank you also to the sommelier who suggested the perfect Austrian red wine for our mains of lamb and sirloin and to the chef and her staff who created a perfectly balanced menu with tantalizing dishes sure to excite your tastebuds. The soup was so light yet had such deep potato flavour, and the crisp on the side with crème fraiche and chives was a welcome burst of brightness. The second appetizer of frisée, pea tendrils, slightly chared pumpkin, house made cheese and candied walnuts with just the right amount of chili oil left me speechless. Then on to the final appetizer and you won't be disappointed! I expected sweetness from the apple fritter, but it was incredibly savoury with this amazing mournay sauce! The entire meal was just incredible. I was also impressed with the lively, yet chill atmosphere, and such a beautifully decorated space with comfortable seating. I can't wait to return!

One of the BEST dining experiences of the year!…read more I came for the first time last October. Our table of two had a reservation -- which is highly recommended. The place filled up fast! The cosy restaurant has lots of small tables, and some bar seating as well. Our server, Arbra (sp?), took such GREAT care of us. When she came to tell us about the menu, she paused to listen to my particular dietary restrictions and then went to check with the chefs in the kitchen. When she returned, she presented me with the menu showing mark-ups to indicate dishes that are no-go AND which dishes could be adapted just for me. There were still tons of options for me! I've never seen this type of service and flexibility before! I got to enjoy the meal completely worry-free. What we ordered: Cocktails -- Brooklyn, and Dark & Stormy Pig Head Terrine with zucchini relish, toast Salmon Tiradito with sweet corn, aji amarilo, cilantro Cold Roast Lamb with eggplant caponata, mint Hanger Steak with new potato, watercress salad Chocolate & Beet Torte with red wine poached plums and sorbet Everything was absolutely delicious. Every dish was beautifully plated and wonderfully balanced flavours. Whether hot or cold dish, every one was a surprise and journey. Especially loved the cold plates! Absolutely delightful.

We ordered beet salad, artichoke dip, crab cakes, Kang's fiery pork and Smokey BBQ lime chicken. All of the dishes were categorized as appetizers but they were main dish sizes! It's hard to imagine with $30+ per person, you can enjoy a fancy meal with attentive service these days. Unlike many other restaurants in GTA, this place doesn't charge you money for bread and the quality is so good. I really like the soft butter with good scent. The beet salad with goat was quite refreshing. The artichoke dip was flavourful too. The pork is tender and flavourful (spicy). Strongly recommend these three dishes. I didn't like the crab cake which doesn't have much crab flavour and the texture of which is weird too. The chicken is dry too. The server was offering to replace our chicken dish with something else when he heard the dish was so-so (although we didn't ask him to switch it). We were so satisfied with the environment and service here that we wanted to revisit during the rest of our trip if they were opening on those days. It'll definitely be my number one dinner choice when I'm revisiting London.

My date had a chicken entree and absolutely loved it. They still need to add sound deadening pads to the ceiling, but it wasn't too busy, so I could hear my date. service was ok, but we ran late due to conversation, and felt pushed to go. at least i wasn't called hunny this time.

My friend ordered a Wille's burger and it had 2 patties, bacon, cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, and their own special sauce.

At the end of the street with Lake Huron in view. On a nice day, you really can't beat it. Only real downside- bees were all over. I know not completely restaurants' fault, but still annoying. I killed 3 or 4 during lunch. We wanted something not too heavy as we were eating a late lunch. I got the fish tacos. Excellent! Great slaw, a little heat, and fresh fried cod. So good. My wife had a spicy chicken sandwich, which she loved. Also loved the fries, which at least seemed house cut. Really good! Our server disappeared a little- that and the bees are the reason for 4 stars instead of 5. Great place and would definitely go back!
