First review of 2026! And our first dine out as well. And there would not have not been any better place to be! What a luxury experience. We opted for a weekday lunch of discovery menu, where they accommodated me for a vegetarian menu to meet my dietary needs! Bravo! All the seven courses were unique and delicious, and made you full. The drive and location is beautiful. We sat by the window on a snowy day, it was beautiful and romantic. The server introduced himself and was very attentive. The place is good for an intimate conversation or for a group meeting. Has both big round tables as well as cozy seating. Starting from Amuse bushe - which was a dried leaves with some jelly, it was unique and pretty delicious for leaves without any salt or spices, served on the upside down glass. The mushroom was delicious, pretty balanced. My mains had 3 different flavours on roots vegetables with puree of cauliflower, curry spice and carrots. Every bite tasted different. We got a complimentary miniature dessert plate, which was as good as our main dessert! I am going there back for another special celebrations. read more

We spent two nights at Langdon Hall, and the dining experience was the highlight of the stay by a wide margin. The restaurant strikes an ideal balance between fine-dining formality and genuine warmth, helped by live piano music and a calm, elegant room. Food: Dinner began with two appetizers: the Lobster (autumn-spiced lobster, winter squash, Armagnac velouté) and the Ricotta Gnudi with winter truffle. Both were beautifully prepared and set a strong tone for the evening. Between courses, we were served a white truffle risotto, which became one of the standout dishes of the trip -- aromatic, silky, and rich without being heavy. For mains, we ordered the black cod and the venison, each cooked with precision and very well balanced. The meal ended with a maple-forward dessert that fit the season and the setting perfectly. Vibe: The dining room feels intimate and refined without being stiff. The combination of soft piano, candlelight, and the heritage property setting creates a memorable atmosphere. Service: Service was excellent across the board. Staff were knowledgeable, attentive, and thoughtful, and this extended beyond the restaurant -- every person we interacted with on the property carried the same sense of care and professionalism. Overall: Langdon Hall offers one of the best fine-dining experiences in Ontario. The quality of the food, the warmth of the service, and the overall atmosphere make it well worth the trip, whether for a special occasion or simply to enjoy a destination meal. read more

Hard to believe Michelin didn't award a star here - service and food quality are next level. I could see how an inspector might find slight nits to pick (a bent tine on one fork, an extended delay between main courses), but the $95 Discovery lunch is an amazing way to spend 2 hours in conversation with family and friends. The sourdough bread is hard to resist, but save room to make it all the way to dessert. The most European experience I've had in Ontario - as Michelin would (and should) say: worth a detour! read more

Enjoyed the time at the restaurant for both the 7 course dinner and breakfast on the next day. The dishes during dinner looked exquisite but it did not blow our minds to be in the top 5 or Michelin Star. We also did not expect the 7 course was a 5 hour dining affair. We were presented with a beautiful amuse bouche while the other dishes except venison were just average. They all had great presentation. For breakfast, we were enjoying the buffet inckuding smoked salmon. We ordered lobster eggs and fried duck egg. Surprised about the fried duck egg as we assumed it was going to be special but didn't notice the difference between chicken and duck egg. Overall, the experience was good but not the expected 5 stars. read more

I don't even know where to begin with this place. It is amazing. Michelin man is coming to town soon, and I hope they give these guys a star. Personally, I'm giving them 5 stars. Food is exquisite, the service is just the right amount of serious and welcoming, the setting has an old-world charm to it, and that makes the entire experience unforgettable. We have been talking about our dinner here for weeks. Not to mention, it is rated #5 of Canada's top 100 this year (2022). What a great night! read more

First of all, we lucked out with getting an open spot for dinner after our couples massage at the Langdon Hall Spa. We initially tried to book dinner reservations for a Friday night, but was told that we weren't allowed to unless we were guests staying overnight (a bit pretentious imo). Nevertheless, we were able to dine and received impeccable service and ambiance. There was even a live pianist ! We ordered a few cocktails (including their famous Poolside, but we added liquor). It seems like the chef makes a complimentary daily appie (in our case, it was a compressed cucumber geranium creation) and dessert (fancy gourmet peach jelly Oreo creation). Neat! Also, their complimentary sourdough bread and butter was great. Otherwise, we ordered: -Truffle Bone Marrow Soup (3.5/5, extremely savoury and flavourful, but also quite salty) -Foie Gras (4/5, the perfect melt in your mouth combo of buttery foie gras, peach, and sweet jelly. Definitely needed more bread to eat with this, and must share with at least 2-3 people as it's really rich/heavy) -Young Chicken (4.5/5, very uniquely done chicken 4-ways, and loved the sauces) -Smoked Beef (4/5) -Apricot dessert (3.5/5, nice presentation and components, but was overall quite sweet) I'm glad we had a dinner experience here, and really liked being able to walk and explore their property (the gardens, lawn, and patio areas). The billiard table and sitting rooms with the board games were nice too! read more

I have visited Langdon Hall twice in the past year, but I have had mixed experiences. My first visit was in November of 2023, where I had lunch. The service was phenomenal, and there was utmost care put into the dining experience. The food was delicious, I had their chicken entree and this lovely London fog ice cream dessert. My second visit was pretty recent in June of this year. The lunch dining experience was moved to another room inside of Wilks Bar, and the staff were not as attentive, which was alright. However, the biggest issue is that as a party of 4, we had each ordered drinks, 3 of them being alcoholic and 1 of them being a non-alcoholic cocktail. When served our drinks, the non-alcoholic drink went to the wrong guest, and it wasn't until we all tried our drinks that we realized the mix-up. We had someone with a mild alcohol intolerance, yet they happened to have a sip of an alcoholic drink because it was incorrectly served and was not confirmed with us. After this incident happened, I wanted to bring it up, but none of the servers or staff had approached us asking about our experience or if everything was okay. Normally this would be a minor issue, but from a restaurant that prides itself as being the 5th best restaurant in Canada, this is unacceptable and I wish I had sought out a manager sooner as mixing up alcoholic beverages is a big deal. Based on my recent visit, I would say the experience was a 2/5, but since I had a great experience the first time I am willing to give this place the benefit of the doubt. read more

Ok. This is my spot. Everyone knows that when I come to town, this is the one place I am sure to stop by. Now, however, I need to plan it a bit better as they fill up for dinner (and even the bar area), so a reservation is best. You can't beat the ambiance and spa/disconnected feeling you get when you visit. I feel like I am in another country (well, I am, but another, another one)... Err, well... either way, I have never been disappointed. Actually, let me take that back. The first couple times I came, I was VERY disappointed as I didn't know they changed their menus so often. I only come once or twice a year, so if I ate something I LOVED... too bad, they usually don't have it when I come again in a different season. This is also probably good for me as I've tried many dishes I Loved! Sometimes, if I'm not tired and it's not too late, I will have a bite, get a cup of coffee and smoke a cigar while just walking around the property. A+ read more

This is such a special place to celebrate family friends or an occasion. The hall is stunning especially around Christmas. The brunch has a continental style breakfast for picking as well as a plated course. The staff is very proper and make the whole experience so unique and special. They were so sweet having a (very high end) high chair for our toddler and brought him whole milk in a special canister! You can park the car or there is a valet option. A brunch we will never forget. read more

If I'm going out to a fancy restaurant, I swore to never get a chicken dish. After scouring yelp reviews and asking for the waitress's opinion, I settled on the young chicken entrée. I was absolutely blown away by this dish. The sauces were the star of the show here as they heightened every bite. This was Possibly the tastiest meal I've had since going to Miku a week before the first lockdown. I wouldn't have thought twice about the chicken option but another reviewer gave it a 5/5 so it piqued my interest. Here's a breakdown of what we got and what we'd rate it at: Poached scallops - 5/5 Young chicken - 5/5 sauces were amazing, as was the pate and perfectly cooked chicken Halibut - 4.5/5 light flavour, melts in your mouth, vegetable were delicious Panna cotta - 5/5 a must have! Raspberry - 5/5 very rich chocolate dessert Service 5/5 Loved the food and experience! read more

I've heard of this place for a while and have been very looking forward to a trip just to this so-called No. 4 restaurant nationwide. However, the experience disappointed me, especially I found it was not worth the 2.5 hours drive in total. The quality and quantity of the food did not match its price tag. The ambiance was quiet and decoration was nice. The service was good but not great. The lady at the reception did not seem to be familiar with the facilities in the dining hall. Throught the meal, I asked our waitress a question related to the ingredient, she didn't seem to know the dish quite well and she forgot to ask and come back with an answer. Their speed of serving the dishes were super slow. It took us two hours to finish a three-course meal. Now the food. We ordered sweet shrimp and smoked trout to start with, then shared the scallop, the pork chop and the fried duck egg as main courses. For dessert, we hadn't the lz chocolate which consisted of dark chocolates and hazelnut. There were some misses in most of the dishes. Overall, they did a much ko better job at seafood dishes than their meat dishes. In addition, the presentation work was much better than flavouring/cooking skills and the freshness of some ingredients. - We were served some bread at the beginning. The temperature was so cold though. - The smoked trout: The trout itself was fresh, came with very light creamy sauce which had a taste of coconut oil. It was creative in the way that it tasted like Thai food but not quite. However, I didn't enjoy the creation too much. The trout, despite its freshness, tasted very flavourless even if you poured the whole plate of sauce on top. I think the chef must have confused the concept of light and flavourless. - The sweet shrimp: This was one of the better dishes among what we ordered. I was so amazed by their beautiful plating (photo below). The highlight was the lemon jam. It help provided a perfectly balanced taste with the shrimp and quinoa. However, the shrimp tasted very old and fishy. - The scallop: I tried a bite from my friend's plate and liked that refreshing taste and texture quite well. On the side, it came with crispy radish. Somehow they made the texture of the scallop crispy as well. It was like a harmonic duet. - Pork chop: The pork tasted too fishy, not enough cooking wine from my point of view. The cabbage tasted old too. It reminded me of my childhood winters when there was no greenhouse yet. I had to eat stewed cabbage with pork soup for three months straight and sometimes the days-old cabbages had that rotten taste which scared me away from cabbages for a few years. The only interesting thing in the dish was the apple on the side. - Fried duck egg: The egg was okay but not great. The duck confit tasted so dry and aged. I didn't like this dish neither. The fried potato was crispy and tasty though. - Lz chocolate: This was a flawless dish. I liked the thick and smooth taste of the dark chocolate and it was not too sweet. Overall, at a price of $70-80 per person for lunch, you can get much better quality and quantity of food at other restaurants in GTA such as Scaramouche or George. This place is not worth the travel. read more

We were four friends attending Langdon Hall for a special lunch on January 22, 2025. Granted it was one of the coldest days of the winter, but I was taken aback at the temperature in the dining room. It was very cold and drafty. When I asked the staff to ''turn up the heat'', I was totally ignored. Not even an acknowledgement of my comment. Not good start and it didn't get any warmer. The dining table top was so cold, it left me flustered being as it was a high end dining location. The menu was very limited and expensive. I opted for the burger since a patron sitting behind us, recommended it. It was delicious albeit very rare in the middle. The fries that came with it were yummy. We shared 3 desserts and although the portion size was hardly ''sharable'', the taste was very good. Service was good and the water glasses were kept topped up. I would not say that the quality was up to par with a Michelin star, yet they charged as if had the star. While it was a lovely lunch with amazing friends, it is likely I will not return. read more

The food at Langdon was. As always. Amazing. Service. 11/10 Food quality 10/10 Food uniqueness 10/10 Loved it all. Stayed at the hotel. The meal plan seems expensive but it's worth it! Best food in Ontario. Enjoy!! read more

Part of a longer review "Chef Jason Bangerter is the mastermind behind Langdon Hall, and has been since 2013. Classically trained in French cuisine, his style melds classical techniques with contemporary execution. It's not uncommon to find cheese from a local artisan or foraged ingredients from the 75-acre property. Bangerter's gift isn't only skill in preparation, but presentation, aussi. There were many similarities in the plating to some of the world's greatest restaurants - Noma and Eleven Madison Park, to name a couple. A healthy glass of Cuvée Rosé by Laurent-Perrier was poured to accompany the first three courses. Its brightness encouraged us to settle into our comfortable seats over the next three hours and leave the pampering to Langdon Hall. Le premier cours était pomme de terre, but it resembled anything but. A fried potato nest arrived on an intricate display of burlap, stones and spruce. On top, three dollops of smoked parsnip were made to resemble eggs. Tasting the crispy potato nest - although elevated in its presentation - transported me to childhood with its smoky, Hickory Sticks-eque flavour. A very solid start, indeed." read more

Absolutely, unquestionably road-trip worthy. I've been to Langdon Hall (dining hall area) for lunch twice now - once for a regular lunch menu, the other for their holiday brunch - and both times were amazing experiences. The dishes are creative and inventive and rustic-while-still-being-sophisticated and homey-yet-elevated and, in terms of the holiday menu, somehow capture the spirit of the season. I know that sounds like a lot of pretentious blabbering, but I don't really know how else to describe how good the food is here. Pricey, quite the trip from Toronto, but definitely definitely worth it! ps: They have a more casual dining area which has a more comfort-food type of a menu. Heard from friends it's also really good at a lower price range. Will definitely try it sometime. read more

The most luxurious, 5-star, Road Trip-Worthy Ontario restaurant by far! Recommended by where.ca, Langdon Hall Hotel & Spa, the century-old, hundred-acre estate is located approximately 103 km away from Toronto, in the heart of Cambridge, Ontario. It is also a popular wedding venue! This 5-diamond award-winning restaurant is best known for its creative and excellent farm-to-table culinary experience and impeccable service. I was absolutely blown away by the multi-course tasting menu! The wine list was also IMPRESSIVE. I settled for cocktails, and they were amazing! I really enjoyed the Gin Blossom, and the Miss Wilks :) #mustorder. The food was unbelievable - made with fresh, in-house grown ingredients and from local farmers, foragers and food artisans. Each dish was presented like a piece of artwork - the Champagne eggs with caviar was presented in a cute egg shell; the duck liver pate was presented in a duck feet shaped goblet cup; and the scallops presented on that gorgeous forest-green marbled plate! The only thing I did not enjoy as much that evening was the truffle soup... it was a tad salty for my liking. But overall, a very, very enjoyable meal. I would come back again for another a food-worthy road trip :) It is definitely a fancy spot to celebrate your special occasion, or for a nice getaway from the city.

I'm giving this place 3.5 stars rounded down, due to portion size and price. Read on for the full review: Came here for lunch with my wife and her friends this weekend. The restaurant is located inside a big mansion that's now a hotel and spa. Our reservation was at 1245 on a Saturday, and when we were seated there were only 2 other tables occupied. The overall ambiance was quiet. The staff were friendly. They were generally more proactive than staff at other hotel restaurants that I've been to. They have an extensive wine list - it's a large book - so there are many options if you want to order wine by the bottle. I don't drink so I can't speak to the quality of the wine though. My wife and i ordered 2 appetizers and 2 mains to share. To start, we had the sweet shrimp and the smoked trout. The trout was tender and I would say the dish was refreshing. There were light sour notes which worked well with this type of dish. However, the fish itself has no flavour unless you drown it in the sauce, which I started doing after the first bite. If you didn't cut it up into smaller pieces (and some people might not, as the fish was already served in portions) you simply would not be able to get enough sauce on to it. The sweet shrimp had a stronger flavour, but not overpowering the sweetness of the shrimps. It was sprinkled with puffed quinoa which gave a crunchy accent to contrast with the softness of the shrimp. Citrus notes balanced it out very nicely. This wasna superior dish compared to the trout. Since we ordered 2 seafood appetizers, we decided to go with the pork tenderloin and the fried duck egg for our mains. The duck egg came with "chubby fries" which were similar to deep fried potato wedges. I think that was my favourite part of the dish - not the egg or the little pieces of duck meat they gave. Overall this dish was forgettable. The pork tenderloin was cooked well. It came with some cabbage and other vegetables whose sweetness would have been a good complement to the savoury main. However, the pork suffered from the same issue as the trout - drown it in sauce to get any flavour inside. The portion size was average at best. After our mains I still had room for dessert (and I ate a bunch of bread along the way - they gave house churned butter - and sprinkled some coarse salt on top as it was unsalted. This means you end up with flavorless patches and too-salty patches on your bread!). I ordered the LH Chocolate (Langdon Hall chocolate). It was dark chocolate with hazelnut - basically a glorified Ferrero Rocher. It was good, but nothing special. Overall, it was a lunch that runs 25 per dish and 15-ish for dessert. While there was some creativity in the recipes, the execution was lacking. The mark-up then I can only attribute to the cost of the location, which is itself a historical building on a giant plot of land (but in Cambridge Ontario!). So without a true wow factor in any of the dishes we tried, this cost is not justifiable. read more

I had heard this place was one of Canada'a Top Restaurants and after checking it out I can see why. The Estate itself is huge and very elegant. A lot of history is in the building itself. When you go for food on a warm day, you are given the option to sit indoors in their upscale dining room or outside on their quaint patio. We chose the patio. We were greeted by our lovely waitress, Maddy, who got us settled and once learning we were interested in wine she offered to bring one of the two sommeliers over to help us. We were very grateful given their wine list was at least 20 pages long. Faye, one of the sommeliers, came over and got us settled with a very lovely bottle of wine and we very impressed with her choice. It paired perfectly with our choice of food. We got the lobster appetizer with cavier, the braised lamb and the green garden risotto. All of the meals beautifully presented and had impressive flavours. The lobster and lamb were cooked to perfection, with them both being some of the most tender we have ever had. We finished dinner with the Mille Fuille and Ice Wine, all of which were fantastic was well. I was celebrating a birthday and Maddy even hand wrote a birthday card for me, which was such a sweet touch! All in all, I would say if you are looking for a place that has fantastic food, upscale service (Maddy and Faye were particularly kind and helpful) and are not afraid of spending the money, definitely check this place out! It's worth the price. read more

Some other things we ordered that are t pictured here are the burger which came with a dill like dip and fries. Also the sorbet + creme brûlée! There wasn't a single flaw in any of these meals.

If you want to take a little road trip to indulge yourself...this is a great spot to do so. You can come for the day and have a delicious meal (we did the Sunday brunch), but of course they have their famous dinner menus; high tea options as well. You can also stay the night or weekend here...they have a bar, restaurant and spa on site. The rooms on the main floor - the restaurants and the bar, the pool hall area and just the sitting rooms (think of sunrooms) are fabulous. You feel like you are sitting in an old mansion. The Sunday brunch - I chose the smoked trout as an appetizer and it was delicious. And the presentation was award worthy...I really wish I had taken pictures but I just wanted to enjoy the moment. Also, because I scarfed the meal down. For the main, I decided on the BC Halibut, with leeks and mushrooms and a champagne based sauce..umm hello, where have you been all my life? The fish was delicate and flaked away so easily, the sauce/leeks were done perfectly and didn't overpower the fish at all. Dessert was a grapefruit tart. I don't like desserts in general, especially the sweet ones, so i picked this as thinking it would be tart. I didn't care for this - it wasn't tart and I really didn't get that grapefruit flavour from it. Just a slight miss for me. I had the Pinky Up cocktail...it's a smoked kinda drink, vodak based, served in a tea cup....and comes to the table under a smoked cover. It was simply delicious. Smoky and light and fruity all in one. All the staff are superb - everyone jumping in to help out. The service is impeccable. This would be a great place to do high tea with your mother or a night away at the spa. Definitely looking forward to coming back. read more

Came back for weekday retreat package and had 3 course dinner with wife. Both of us ordered the foie gras torchon for appetizer, she had the short rib entree, and i had the chicken. Everything was delicious, only critique would be the foie gras portion was a bit too large. Flavours were very well balanced, short rib was cooked sous-vide than seared, chicken was served with one piece white meat, and the other dark meat with madeira sauce. Great food and service, will definitely be back to try other seasonal dishes. Keep up the great work! read more

I've been here twice now... once with a girlfriend of mine for high tea on a Sunday, and the second time with my husband to enjoy the dinner tasting menu on a Friday evening. The atmosphere feels formal, and the service was quite good. Here is what I liked: - both the high tea and tasting menu food presentation was carefully thought of... the tasting menu was artistic. Lots of thought went into the display of the food, including the plates etc. - the dinner tasting menu had something like 12 courses- a lot ! Menu changes often, and I thoroughly enjoyed their buttermilk with snowcrab, poussin with chicken and foie gras, honey box, and taste the garden courses. - the service was very good too- every time a plate was served, the server would explain the thought and inspiration that went behind the course. - the mansion is on a beautiful property... I recommend arriving a bit earlier to walk around the property- very lovely. What could be improved: - for the dinner service, the wines paired with each course tasted great however the Sommelier provided a very short description of the wine presented. It didn't seem exciting. A story behind the presented wine , similar to how each course was presented , would have been better. Or why this or that wine was paired with a particular meal. - the artistic plates and cups were interesting but it seemed distracting and took the attention away from the star of the show- the actual food. - While I had some favourites among the 12 courses in the tasting menu, there were some courses I didn't like at all. That said - it's pretty challenging to design a 12 course tasting menu that will appeal to every one. Overall - good experience ! I would return for the afternoon tea and maybe for a dinner service a-la-carte. read more

Note: I don't think there is a dress code per se, but let's just say you wouldn't show up to Brunch/Brekkie here as you would a TO brunch joint! You will feel out-of-place if you come underdressed. Mixed review of Hotel Vs. Dining Hall. Food wasn't bad per se, but it's pricey, looks fancy, but isn't mindblowing, "Wow, I MUST come back!" reaction. 5/5 Service is very attentive. You may feel a bit uneasy if you're not used to being pampered! 3-3.5*/5 Food - I found Breakfast was waaay better than the $65pp, 3-course Brunch! At that price, it did NOT include coffee/tea which I think should be standard OR at least 1 non-/alcoholic drink option. Cocktails were quite pricey, at at least $15 drink! Also be careful of what you choose for Brunch 'cause it can be quite carby as meal comes with a loaf of sour dough bread. I found the food good, but there was more focus on looking pretty than showcasing a complex taste profile. Breakfast, on the other hand, was nice because we were offered BOTH to eat from the buffet + order off the menu, coffee/tea, juice INCLUDED. Now that's what I'm talking about! Be careful of what you choose from the buffet before you order as well, because there were some repeat items. Pricey, decent, nice experience if you feel like being fancy. read more

Sunday brunch was outstanding! It was better than my Summerlicious experience at the acclaimed Canoe in downtown Toronto. From their Sunday brunch menu, you can pick one Appetizer, Entrée and Dessert. I picked Cured Salmon, Braised Beef Shortrib, and LH Chocolate. My husband got Foie Gras Ganache, Braised Pork Belly, and Eclair. I liked Cured Salmon, which was jelly jolly tasty! I also tasted a sample of my husband's Braised Pork Belly, which was crispy and delicious. I didn't like my beef dish and dessert as much, but they were decent. Beef was so soft. I also pampered myself by ordering a $15 glass of White Wine Sangria. It was refreshing and sweet. At $68 per person, it was pricey for brunch, but the food was excellent, with great atmosphere and attentive service. You also get a three-course meal, so it is a better deal than if you were to order the dishes separately. Atmosphere is classy and upscale with live piano music. You can also sit outside under a big tree but be careful because there are bees, flies and some huge black bugs around. Service is friendly and professional. One little hiccup was that the waitress forgot to include my drink to the bill, and we had to point that out and wait for the revised bill. read more

NOT MY CUP OF TEA Took my daughter for her 16th Birthday to the spa and Afternoon Tea . We have been to many lovely places for Afternoon tea and figured Langdon Hall would really do it right. However we were very disappointed and dissatisfied with the serving. The scones however were a 10 out of 10. The rest fell completely flat. The savoury bites were very tiny & tasteless and one was even soggy. The dessert portion was also very teeny in size and also lacked any taste. The macaron was the only sizable option and it was old as it all crumbled when we bit in to it. Not at all worth $50.00 per person! read more

My family and I celebrated my birthday here and the food is very memorable - from the appetizers to desert. The scallops with truffles was so refreshing and the best truffle dish I ever had so far.

Went here for the afternoon tea. Overall, was an okay experience and here's why... The savouries, scones and sweets were served out of order on the tiers and that really threw me off - I had to rearrange the plates cause my OCD couldn't let me eat until it was visually correct. The scones were on top, then savouries in the middle, and dessert on the bottom. For being known to be a great culinary experience (based on past reviews), I'm surprised something like this was incorrect. In terms of taste, I give it a solid 6/10. Half of the savouries lacked an element of flavour. With afternoon tea experiences, I look for each piece to "tell me a story", but with these savouries, I feel like the story started but didn't really follow through. The Rosemary Thumbprint Cookie with Tomato Jam and Farmer Murray's Egg Salad Éclair were obviously missing a "finishing flavor" and although the Spring Vegetable & Shrimp Tartlet and Heritage Pork Roll were the better of the four, they too still lacked a final touch. The scones were way too sweet but if they reduced the sugar, a better focus on the actual flavours would be more possible. The desserts weren't memorable except that the macaron was waay too sweet and "stained" a blob on one of my friend's lips - which was very odd that it wasn't mixed in properly. The location and place is absolutely beautiful - the landscape, architecture and furniture were very pleasing to the senses. The staff were okay but didn't seem to be in a good mood and that reflected in their service. We scheduled to come in for 3:30pm so maybe they had a long morning... As expected for afternoon tea on a Sunday, it started at $50 per person and would increase based on the tea you got. I would not come back for afternoon tea but will probably try their prix fixe dinner one time. read more

Had the winter tasting menu, whole thing took about 3 hours, definitely a cool experience. Each dish was beautifully presented, fun and tasted delicious. Will definitely comeback to try their regular menu or summer tasting! Worth the trip and money. read more

See all

We were here about 5 years ago for a birthday - had a GREAT meal. We came back last week for a celebration again - and wow - how things have changed. We had the chef tasting menu. The first disappointment was that they said they could do dairy free - but actually what ended up happening was that they just left out a component on the plate (caviar course without the creme fraiche, scallop without the cream). The house cured tuna came on a tuna spine (huge one) - which was just totally missing in our view - it was literally just a giant skeleton with a tiny piece of tuna. I get where they were going - but it was a miss. The first 4 courses fired out so fast our heads spun - then an HOUR wait for the 5th course - with no explanation and no compensation. Oddly however, the two men beside us were offered some ice wine "compliments of Langdon Hall" - while we sat waiting and waiting.. The overall meal we thought was painfully over priced. With a few glasses of wine just under 600 dollars. For that expense you would expect the royal treatment - but again we did not get that. We had no dedicated server, literally whomever was at the window when it was ready - served us. There was no apology (end to end the meal took 3.5 hours due to the delays). I would not recommend, and am quite sorry we ventured over there again... read more

Lovely venue for a good friend's wedding. Food was good, ambiance was good, the whole venue was beautiful.

Lovely dining experience. For dinner - We did a 3 course included in our package. Everything was perfect. We had halibut and the beef tenderloins. Especially loved the Mille feuille - so delicately prepared. We then had the breakfast which was a unique play on an eggs Benedict plus the buffet. The culinary lesson the next morning was also great - how to make ricotta. We will return. read more

Consistently one of the best restaurants in Canada. Very creative menu with elegant presentation. Massive gardens on site grow a large variety of fruits and vegetables that are served seasonally. Extensive wine list and top notch somms. Very good professional service in sophisticated dining room. Expensive but worth it for special occasion. read more

Terrible food. Just awful. Left my Mom throwing up all night. Rooms were freezing. Service was amazing 5 stars to the staff. But really the food shouldn't even be considered food. It was absolutely disgusting. read more

Third so-so experience in a row, after years of visits. I honestly do not understand how this is a Relais and Chateau. Though the property and grounds are lovely, the service is hit and miss (and sometimes horrible). I have had lovely service and I have had service so deplorable I wouldn't even imagine to be treated that way at a fast food establishment. Tonight was not as bad as previous experiences have been, however third strike makes us reconsider this as a destination. Asked for 6 pm dining reservation at Wilks bar. Was told no, fully booked. Asked for 5:30, told no. Asked what they did have available. Was told 5 pm. Asked to sit by the fireplace. Was told a flat out: "no". No explanation or pleasantries. Arrived at 5 pm. During our entire dinner, not ONE table, inside or out, was occupied. There were no other diners. So, I'm not sure how they were "fully booked". Spoke briefly with the manager to express my surprise. Though she was nice, she offered nothing other than a sympathetic ear. Not even a comped drink. Not that I was looking for, but even our local watering hole provides better service than this. Again, how is this a relais and Chateau? Standards have clearly dropped. Have been long time visitors of Langdon hall, but there are too many other lovely places to go, with far better service. This was not my worst experience here but third strike you are out. read more
