Stopped in as we are staying at the Civic Hotel and really pleased with our food. We shared everything and it was plenty. We split the wings with cajun honey sauce, the kale ceaser with spicy crispy chicken, and the baked brie. Everything was super flavourful. We had a French 75 and a Lavender Haze as cocktails which were also well done. Our server was super friendly and attentive. Definitely going to stop in again before we check out!

The food and service was fantastic. Our server was very attentive and professional. We had the seafood pasta, poke bowl and brussel sprouts, everything was great. The restaurant was really clean and organized. Very professional vibes.

We came here for lunch on a Sunday. It was quiet and fairly empty so we got seated promptly after being greeted. The server was nice and bright us water immediately. We looked at the menu online and knew what we wanted so we ordered right away as well. It was fairly quiet minus the family at the table next to us celebrating something with their kids and they were using the furniture as climbing elements. Not just on their tables, but the neighbour tables as well. I appreciate the staff telling the parents to keep their children in check. The food was delicious and made exactly how it was described and ordered. I have nothing to complain about here. Flavours were great and nothing was over or underdone. We did order a mock tail which was unfortunately forgotten about until we reminded them again. Not a big deal but I still have to deduct a point there for service since they forgot despite being so empty. Overall a good experience which we knew since we come here now and then.

Absolutely loved the food, the margarita pizza tasted authentic as being in Italy and the seafood pappardelle was cooked well and very tasty. Also loved all of the appies we ordered. Great atmosphere and servers are super friendly. Loved that the music and atmosphere wasn't so loud that we could actually hear ourselves converse, unlike other restaurants. Highly recommend

Good food and great service. Our server was fantastic, attentive and friendly. To start, we shared the calamari which was very crispy and nicely seasoned, a decent portion. For mains we had: Mac & Cheese with added pulled pork, Seafood Tagliatelle and Smoked Chicken Rigatoni. Piping hot and delicious. Of the three, the seafood pasta was the best. The smoked chicken pasta had a heavy pour of olive oil, which I found was too much on an already creamy sauce. For dessert, the Tres Leches was recommended but we didn’t love it (lots of cinnamon). If you like Horchata, you’d like it though. The cookie skillet was a big hit!!

I googled “the best brunch restaurant near me” before making a reservation for Father’s Day—and Google did not disappoint! We truly enjoyed the food, but it was Breanna who made our dining experience even more special. We’ll definitely be coming back for dinner in the very near future!

I usually don't have much expectation for restaurants in hotels but this one was a pleasant surprise. The food was delicious and pricing not outrageous. The menu is eccletic with some creative items alongside the usual comfort fare. The seafood chorizo arancini was a lovely twist on one of my favourite appys and they were nice and crispy on the outside, and soft but with texture inside. The seafood comes through. The eggplant mash around them was very nice. The salt and pepper chicken wings were also on point, well seasoned and crispy skin, meat not dry. If I stay at this hotel again I'll definitely eat at this restaurant.

We booked the private room at Dominion Bar Kitchen to celebrate the end of our last clinical as nurses and it was the perfect spot! The atmosphere was just right for our group, and the staff were super accommodating. I ordered the black truffle chicken, and wow—it was absolutely delicious. I ate every last bite! Rich, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. My classmates were also raving about their meals nothing but compliments going around the table. Such a great experience overall. Great food, great vibes, and a great way to wrap up an important milestone. Highly recommend for group celebrations or even just a special night out!
