    We got a chance to try this Top100 restaurant in the village of Flesherton on our way to visit…read moreBruce Peninsula. It's a good pit stop on an otherwise long drive. Let me start with the good. The ingredients were very fresh, local, and seasonal. The dishes were sometimes surprising and definitely let the ingredients shine. I can understand why it made the Canada's top 100 list. So, why only 3 stars? Because the first rule of running a restaurant was broken - feed your guests enough food! We were 2 adults and.a.sick 6 year old - we should not need to order 2 apps and 4 mains and still be not completely full! The problem with small portion size is not just an expectation gap, it also disrupts the entire flow of the meal since the guest would need to order more food and then wait a long time for it to be prepared. So while this restaurant serves good food, the overall experience did not meet my expectation of a Top100 restaurant.

    We've tried The Gate restaurant lately during a trip to Bruce county. As a restaurant on the top…read more100 list, this place offers decent but not wowing quality of food. The portion was mini and it's not worth spending 100+ per person for just an okay restaurant. The service was also slow. We had to wait long for the food to be served after the food was ready and waited ridiculously long for the bill. We ordered sourdough bread, tuna crudo, ox tail, semolina pasta, baby turnip and pickerel. The sourdough was served cold which upsets my stomach. The crudo was delicious and went really well with the blueberry. The ox tail was tasty but there's only invisible amount of ground ox tail one can find. The pasta dish was literally as mini as a couple of bites. The pickerel was cooked okay but again super small portion. The turnip was good with the sweet and sour taste although I wasn't a big fan of this vegetable. Overall, the dish was with okay quality but it's just not worth how much it costs considering the portion of valuable ingredients they used. I would only like to revisit if they can fine-tune the portion issue.

    Such a wonderful place to have a meal. Absolutely every aspect of our meal was excellent:…read more We tried the dip sampler and my friend had the chicken schwarma platter. The dips were all delicious and rich, and the pita was fresh and warm. The garlic aioli was also strong and creamy. The atmosphere was very family friendly with an almost cafeteria-like feel. Very casual and comfortable environment, with fast and easy service. The washrooms also surprised me with tampons and pads for anyone who needed one. All in all, food was authentic, delicious, and reasonably priced. Definitely recommend.

    Friends and family living in the area have recommended this place and stated that they've been…read moregoing for years. I remember trying it (takeout) years ago but this is the first time I came in for dine-in. I love the cozy interiors and aesthetics. Decor is nice especially the booth seatings. Menu has a wide variety of options to choose from, but we opted for the family platter since it seemed like the best option for sharing. Portion was quite generous and a decent amount to share. We got the BBQ chicken ($74.99) which came with either rice or fries (or you could do half/half), salad of your choice (we opted for fattoush), 2 dips of your choice (we chose baba ghanoush & muhammara), 4 fresh pitas & a whole chicken. Restaurant has a lot of parking and seating. Staff were nice but it was a bit of a slow service (had to constantly ask for things, such as cutlery, plates, etc). The washroom had the A/C on blast and it was freezing cold but at least it was clean. Now for the food - everything we had was pretty good. I usually don't like garlic sauce but the one that came with the food was pretty creamy and delicious. As for the baba ghanoush, it didn't taste like it but it still had a nice flavour. The Muhammara was amazing, not overly spicy. As for the fattoush, I found it just OK. I've had better ones elsewhere and I find that it lacked the crispy pita bites, as there was only a few. However, it's worth noting that the chicken took around 30-40 minutes to be ready, which I didn't mind because it came well seasoned and well done. It was not too dry, but not juicy either but seasoned well. The rice was also ok and I like that the food wasn't too greasy, but the plate came with way too many onions... I'd recommend this spot and would come back if I'm ever in the area. Would love to try other dishes on the menu.
