Really insane that my max 30$ meal turned to 60$. I've been to this restaurant the most throughout my undergrad, love their food, and always thought/spoke highly of it. This was my first time having it in a while, so it really sucks getting gouged by them. I won't go here again, if you do make sure to know about the real prices.

This starts from the basic decor to the Korean lady traditionally running the kitchen. Menu prices were very reasonable, catering to the student demographic. Gam Ja Tang (pork bone soup) was a pleasant surprise, with large pieces of pork neck bone and fall-off-the-bone meat in the mildly spicy fresh kimchi broth. But the potato could've used more time to soak up the bold soup flavours. The colourful Bibimbap was served with a nice runny egg but the chopped vegetables caused stirred rice to be watery. That was atoned by a popping platter of Korean Seasoned Fried Chicken in sweet & spicy gochujang sauce. The boneless half portion was huge. Pieces were crunchy & saucy in one bite! This restaurant is a short drive up Princess St from downtown with city parking nearby. Both patio & indoor dining options were available. Service was smooth & easygoing. Glad to enjoy this spot for an authentic Korean meal among the few Asian food options in town.

Came here for a trip to Kingston with my family. Haven't been to a red lobster in a long time and…read morewas quite excited to be here. The place has lots of seats inside, we did make a reservation an hour ahead because of our big party. They accommodated us right away, service is also great, two waitresses attended to us and they were polite & funny. Food was really good but other members of my family didn't really enjoy theirs, the salmon was okay and the sauce for the lobster & shrimp pasta was kind of bland. I got the garlic shrimp linguine and loved it. Flavour was great, I always order it. I would come here again if I'm in town. Rating: 3.8/5

Never been to a Red Lobster before but kind of know what to expect from a large chain restaurant…read more Everything was pretty much standard I feel. Atmosphere is spacious, cabin-like and comfortable. Staff do the standard vaccination check and contact tracing procedures before being seated. Service is really good as I'd expect and our server was constantly checking in on us throughout the meal which was solid. Came here for the Endless Shrimp promotion going on for $23.99 on Monday-Thursday and goes up to $29.99 Friday-Sunday. For 23.99 I think the price is pretty good for what you get. There's 5 varieties of shrimp on offer here but the highlights for me were the crispy thai and the grilled skewer. Don't recall how many orders I did but they definitely do not make you wait for ordering more shrimp. Our server kept coming back asking what our next shrimp order was going to be. The shrimp isn't anything amazing but it's just pretty good overall. You only get 1 side for all of this which is a bit disappointing as I stopped ordering more shrimp because I was getting a tad bored of just stuffing my face with shrimp and nothing else lol. Not sure about any of their other offerings but endless shrimp promotion is actually not a bad value play and does the job.

My girlfriend had the Braised Short Rib to start, and the Scallops in Bearnaise sauce for main. I had the Pork Belly starter, Goat Ragu main and an Old Fashioned.

Easily one of our favourite meals in Kingston.

We were in town for a short trip, and had no issues dinning here again without a reservation, with now, two children. Service was absolutely fantastic, and very attentive. 5 star service all around. The hubs got his prime rib dinner and a baked potato. I went with the vegetarian shepherds pie that came with a spring mix salad and some roasted veggies on the side. It was fantastic. The kids meals came with a fruit and vegetable platter, which was so cute and thoughtful, their main of choice a (they went with the mac and cheese and chicken fingers and fries). We had a great night out here, the staff were so friendly and attentive. It was a very memorable experience.

We scoped out a few places and landed here for a change from the typical pub vibe, Italian pasta joints around the corner, or chains like Jack Astor's. We beat the lunch crowd, arriving just before 2 PM. Service was great--we were seated immediately and ordered a few tapas: some roasted Brussels sprouts and a selection of meat options including Persian BBQ lamb, achiote grilled chicken, and sticky pork ribs. The chicken was my least favorite, though it wasn't bad. Everything else was absolutely delicious and flavorful. I'd really like to come back another time for proper drinks--they have an impressive wine list and a nice selection of sangrias that caught my eye. Definitely worth a return visit if you're passing through Kingston.

They have a private party room downstairs which is also where the restrooms are located so the restaurant isn't really accessible. They recommend 3-4 dishes per person. This can be expensive as most dishes are in the 20 dollar range. The steak with chimichurri sauce was excellent!!! But was also $44.00 for about 13 small slices. We also ordered a Thai green curry cod that comes with cashews infused in the sauce. We had a nut allergy at the table so they were able to remove the cashews to make the dish nut free. Service was decent but this is a dining environment where you are not rushed out the door. Dishes come out sporadically so you are meant for slow dining. This is a good place to celebrate a special occasion or if you just want something different while in Kingston.

Meant to write this review months ago, but I came here for to celebrate my grad dinner with my…read morefamily as it was one of my favourite restaurants in Kingston however I am not sure if they were just very busy that night but the service was not great. Half of my family went in to grab our table while my dad and I spent some time searching for parking which probably took roughly 15 minutes. When we got in, there was already water on our table which was nice however after that moment it took 20 minutes for our server to come to our table. I have a lot higher expectations for this place as I have been a couple times and it is a higher end restaurant so I was kinda disappointed. Mind you our reso was at 8pm so we were pretty hungry at this point. The server didn't really say much or apologize for not coming by so it was overall a bit strange. Besides that the food was pretty good, I got the seafood linguine which tasted pretty fresh but I probably wouldn't order it again as there are other things on the menu I like better. My dad ordered the braised lamb shank and my mom and grandma shared the penne pomodoro. Overall the lamb was definitely the best dish out of them all. Not sure if I would come back here, if I was ever visiting Kingston again as there are just so many great restaurants to choose from and I was not satisfied with the service which I think is important especially for a high end place.

Firstly, I do want to give a nod to their cocktails, that were boozy and had interesting combinations. There was also complimentary bread with olive oil. As for the rest of our meal...we ordered the FRITTO MISTO DI MARE to share and it was just OK, I felt the batter could've been better. Our main dishes took almost an hour to come after our appetizer. My friend got the PESTO LINGUINE (pasta was overdone but the pesto was delicious) while I got the BEEF RAGU GNOCCHI WITH ADDED RAPINI (gnocchi was oddly huge and on the denser side, the addition of rapini was barely a few leaves which was disappointing, sauce was salty). Wish I had a better experience here...probably won't go out of my way to dine at Olivea again.

The spicy salmon rolls, weird taste to them, sure it's nothing bad and maybe some people would prefer it but I didn't like it as much as from other places. The service was quick.
