Used to be really good!…read more Then, a couple months ago,they inexplicably changed the menu and got rid of almost everything vegan. Now we are left with one vegan plate, which has a weird sun-dried, tomato tahini, which is gross, and doesn't have lentils anymore. And one falafel wrap. Disappointing, the other bowls and lentils used to be really good!

I am Lebanese and my wife and I love Lebanese food. So we thought we would give the new Mezza…read moreLebanese Kitchen a try this evening. Normally I do not complain about my meals, I just chalk it up as a bad experience and move on. But our meal this evening was very disappointing to say the least. We ordered 2 chicken Shwarma sandwiches, fatoush, and what we thought was a side of grape leaf "rolls". The sandwiches were loaded with lettuce mostly, and had very little chicken and sauce in them. The Fatoush wasn't enough to feed a toddler, and we got 1 grape leaf roll. We may have misunderstood this part, but if you advertise rolls, more than 1 would be nice. The sandwich was bland, the salad was nowhere near authentic, and the grape leaf roll, well.... As a Lebanese person, I can undoubtedly say this was a huge embarrassment to our county's food, and this will be the only time I eat at this establishment!!

It is generic food which some people in Eastern Canada may actually think is "Middle Eastern"…read more Please do not. This is not Middle Eastern food. The tabbouleh was old, likely made two days ago. The parsley had lost every semblance of freshness. The Baba Ganouush had a suspicious smoked flavour likely created artificially-- and also did not pass the fresh-test. The "Chicken Shawarma" consisted of mediocre generic chicken which clearly never saw a proper spit, and likely never saw anything resembling a marinade of spices like cumin cardamon paprika and other authentic "Middle Eastern" spices. In fact, it likely never even met a real fire. It gets very tiresome paying a small fortune for crappy food made by people who should never have ever entered the food business. Why? Why would you ever think it was a good idea to try and make money serving lousy food? Pass.

It was the "shoulder season" so a quiet night for the restaurant. Hummus appetizer was delicious…read more Chicken Parmesan was tasty. Italian sausage pasta dish was delicious. The waitress was awesome. A good place to go for yummy Italian/Mediterranean food.

Vivaldi's is awesome!…read more Loved the interior of this restaurant as it looks so classy! Don't let those gorgeous looks fool you though, as Vivaldi's is down to earth and a casual place to bring family and friends. They do have Italian food, and while influential composer Antonio Vivaldi was Italian, the overarching theme here is Lebanese-Italian fusion. My friend ordered a shrimp rice dish with veggies and I ordered the seafood platter which came with roasted potatoes. A free app of delicious home made bread along with oil and vinegar to swipe was provided. Everything was fantastic! The seafood tasted fresh and everything came to our table hot and tasty. It's a great spot to take selfies and family photos so remember to bring your camera and ask the server to snap a few for you. Our service was stellar and we could not have had a better experience overall. To top things off, we ordered dessert, German chocolate cake which was comped for us because "it was our first time at Vivaldi's". Now that's a good way to win friends and influence people! The bill for two of us was only $70! Although we didn't indulge in drinks, that still is an amazing price for an enjoyable night out with incredible service. Cheers to Vivaldi's!

I saw ribeye steak platter on their menu for less than $10. I was floored. Then, I played it safe…read moreand asked if it was a legit steak or whether it was sliced. They said it was sliced. Nope. Not the great deal I thought it was going to be. I ended up going for the donair instead. They made me a platter even though it wasn't on the menu. I opted for rice and salad. They nuked my rice. I'm pretty sure they also nuked it in a plastic container. Um...no. On the upside, the salad was halfway decent and the six slices of donair were crispy.

I would go back just for the hummus! Then fries came with a delicious sauce that was also good. The meal came with rice and beef and chicken with tomatoes and cucumbers, drizzled with balsamic vinegar. The chicken and rice were very tasty. The beef was not as flavorful and resembled a hamburger texture. The first thing to note here is the portion size. They were large and certainly enough to feed 2 people. The server had to be flagged down but very helpful when we got their attention. We were offered free coffee to try. It was unique. The overall building inside needs to be refreshed, including tablecloths.

From: http://sjrestaurantreviews.tumblr.com/…read more The Mediterranean The Med has been around for a long time; it's a Saint John staple. The food was good, the selection is fairly extensive. We had a nice flaming cheese appetizer that was excellent. Service was a bit slow/distracted, but not bad. They go through so many meals that it's not surprising that the waiter's a bit harried. The decor is nothing special, and starting to look a bit worn and dated. Overall, 3 out of 5 stars
