    Appetizers, that I lightly grazed before leaving the restaurant in a huff because they refused to serve me tap water. Read my review.
    A. Alfred A.

    Visited last night. I'd been here before and the food was delicious. This time I didn't really get to the food. I'd ordered my selection, and I would have preferred a beer to accompany my meal, but they don't serve beer. OK, fine, I'll simply have water. When the waitress started bringing the included appetizers, she brought a glass, and a plastic bottle of water. "I didn't order that" I said. "You ordered water" she replied. "Yeah, tap water." "We don't serve tap water." I was getting upset. The prices at this restaurant are not cheap (typical meat dish is around $37). And here they are wanting to chisel me for more more money? I considered taking the glass to the washroom and filling it with tap water, but decided against that. I've come to expect water and refills from my wait person. I thought: I'm being ridiculous. I should just enjoy the meal. I started eating the bread and appetizers. But, no, it was really bothering me. I put some money on the table ($10 in change. I didn't have small bills.), got up and told the waitress I was leaving. She asked me to wait while she told her chef about this. He was sitting at a table near the door, doing something with his phone. She explained to him I was leaving. I added that it was because of the water, that it was a "slap in the face"; and walked out the door. He barely looked up from his phone. I'm sorry I left so much. They've lost a customer. I'm never returning there. They didn't even offer glass bottles of water. The plastic is single use, so it fills the landfills. And there are health concerns with microplastics. Insane. When I told my wife about the no tap water thing, she said "I hope you didn't stay!" Which was a relief because I thought maybe I'd overreacted. What do you think? Update: read other one-star reviews, and several other people have been offended by the no tap water policy. Also, poor and rude service. Should also mention that with the restaurant located at a busy intersection, and next to a gas station, with a "patio", the ambiance is pretty awful.

    The warmth and politeness of the staff in this Turkish restaurant added a pleasant touch to our dining experience. To start, they served us salad and cucumber yogurt with food plus freshly baked bread. Also, we had the pistachio rolls which are perfect for their creamy Turkish coffee! I recommend getting the Bingol Mix Kebab, you will taste some of their famous meat in this platter! The lamb chops are my personal favourite!

    It was an amazing experience, few points i should highlight: 1) better to have reservation in advance, unfortunately they won't accept reservation for two people but to prevent waiting in queue for more than two people do the reservation. 2) The food's portions are huge and one food is suitable for two people already

    Food: 4/5 Great portions and very well balanced flavors. Love the ezme here, which is a little sweeter than I'm used to but so so refreshing and paired well with everything. The beyti was good but nothing extraordinary and had a smaller portion than the rest of the dishes. If you like a light creamy flavor then the beyti and yogurt kebab might be a good choice for you, but I personally found it nothing special. Personal favorites were by far the Antayka kebab and the Lamb Shish. For the savoury food lovers out there, these are for you! Came with a bit of everything and overall well seasoned and delicious. Dessert: baklava was exactly what you would expect from a Turkish restaurant. Nothing extraordinary but always a great finish to the meal! Cold baklava was my personal favorite. Overall taste was fantastic and mostly great portions for the price (roughly 30$ per dish) Service: 5/5 very fast and friendly service. We were served by multiple people who were all so kind and efficient. It was never hard to ask for something as there were always people running around. Fantastic team! Atmosphere: 3/5 plenty of seating indoors and outdoors. Cute spot overall but definitely very warm and humid during the summer. It would've been nice to have better ventilation or AC.

    These guys are under new management If I could give this place a 6/5 I would. It's amazing food and friendly and fast service. They even gave us complimentary tea Just a beautiful place to eat

    Turkish soda. Once for curiosity is all I need.

    Good ambiance. Nice decor with some little details on their stone oven and flooring. Food is actually delicious , even for someone who tried Turkish food for the first time. Servers were very friendly and know their menu well. My taste bud like the food. The food portion may look light, but don't be fooled by the picture. I left with full stomach and satisfaction. We actually ordered chicken Shish and grilled meatball. But missed the photo for grilled meatball. In sum, both dishes are good. They are both full of flavour but still makes your refreshing after eating. Appetizers are also a must try. Overall, I recommand the restaurant.

    The staff are great, the taste & quality of the food is really amazing, and the environment of koz Bingol is so friendly.

    I'd been curious about Holy Cow for a while, so when we had a little time to kill in between TIFF…read morescreenings, I figured what better excuse to finally pop in. We zeroed in on the lunch menu and I eventually opted for the Beef Don ("Beef chuck marinated in housemade BBQ sauce with Japanese steam rice"), which came with small bowls of potato salad and soup. I didn't know what to expect from that aforementioned potato salad, but it definitely hit the spot. Perhaps a touch too salty, but otherwise very satisfying. The soup was great, too. The main arrived shortly after that and was nice and hot. It's a tasty dish. The tender meat has a lot of flavor and the rice is a perfect accompaniment. I wish there was some tableside sauce I could've added, as I love a saucy rice dish, but that's a minor complaint. The service was efficient and friendly, and the ambiance was comfortable. Holy Cow is a cool little place.

My only criticism is that it was a bit on the salty side, which overshadowed the natural flavor of the beef. The restaurant itself was pleasant and offered good value for the price point. The atmosphere was comfortable, and the overall dining experience met expectations without trying to be overly fancy. Overall, it was a decent experience, and I'd consider coming back to try some of the other items on the menu.

This is their second location, in a build with 3 other food vendors. It is mostly a takeout restaurant. There is a small counter where you could stand and eat. There are six set combinations. Or you can build your own pasta (BYOP) combo. On the soft-opening day (2025-01-20), they were offering an opening special of Mac N Cheese with BBQ Chicken sample and a drink for only $6.99. I ordered the following: 1. BYOP: Garlic Shrimp, penne, rose sauce, broccoli, black olives, mushrooms. It automatically comes with sliced green peppers and chopped parsley. 2. Opening Special ($6.99) x 2. For the BYOP, they didn't warn me it was medium spicy. I can handle it with a cold drink! The shrimp and penne were perfectly cooked. I loved the rose sauce. My choices of broccoli,  black olives, and mushrooms worked well together and with the base. The Opening Special was delicious; the Mac n Cheese part and BBQ Chicken were really good! Unfortunately, the BBQ was mildly spicy, and my son didn't like it; more for me! The customer service was good. It took them a long time to prepare the food (there were many orders prior to mine). But it was opening day, so hopefully, they will speed up their cooking. There is no free WiFi. The food stall is wheelchair accessible, but there is no door-open button. There are no customer washrooms. There is paid neighbourhood street parking. Review 2025-014

Similarly while I would not consider this quite a fusion restaurant, the food was indeed delicious! Most of the rice sides, had furikake sprinkled on top which always enhances the flavor. The sushi selection was good! The top items for me were the cod and lobster/shrimp udon. Again neither were quite executed as fusion (IMO) but nonetheless it was delicious! The steak was also good, but steak is more readily available on most menus elsewhere. The potato and egg salad as an app also made the top list. It was super creamy and paired nicely with the crunchy chips! The endless drink menu/option is also excellent, except I am not sure how much alcohol was actually in there because within the group of 13 people, most of us did not feel even slightly tipsy. The ambiance is beautiful and really embraces a jungle with vibrant colors intertwined into the interior. the bathroom however, is a different story as it is at the end of a very dark hallway. Not sure if they turn the lights on at night, but for someone with poor vision, it was hard to see as the light reflected off the walls. The servers were friendly and with a large group like ours, we did have some dishes that just never made it out so we did need to flag someone down for them about an hour or so in.
