Located in Kingston, Ontario this is a tapas style restaurant. The interior is dark and cool making…read moreyou think of a wine cellar. Full bar with extensive wine options. 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.

Passed by this place a couple of times and I always thought it was just a hotel establishment but…read moremy friend was convinced there was a restaurant hidden inside. Finally went inside to confirm and then made a reservation of that night on their outdoor patio area. The vibe is really nice since the patio is it's own separate area with some really nice...tiling? Idk it just feels really premium and good vibes outside. Ordered the Nabulsi Cheese small plate as well as the Pan Seared Flat-Iron Steak as the recommendation from the server. I'm really not that well versed in fine dining or just more pricy places, so this was a relatively new experience on my end. The nabulsi cheese plate was exceptional. The blend of flavours (olives, tomatoes, shallots) were really nice mixed together. The cheese was amazing, chewy and just great texture all on a nice sliced baguette. Kinda like a flavour explosion which was amazing. Definitely try the cheese plate. The flat-iron steak wasn't you typical steak cooked along with a potato side (mashed or fries). The steak was paired with a quinoa mix, "panca pepper demi and aji verde" which were the dark brown/black sauce and the green sauce in the picture. Steak was super tender and with both sauces were phenomenal. On the same vein as the nabulsi cheese plate, these dishes are literally flavours I've never tasted before and they were amazing. I never really tried quinoa either and was skeptical as to how it would pair alongside steak but it was actually quite nice since the texture was so different then the other things we ordered. This place is the definition of a hidden gem for me. Not even a Yelp page (woohoo another business added!) and not signage outside indicating what it is. Hopefully this review gives it it's much needed appreciation! 5 stars easily.

The food came as it was ready, so it felt staggered, but we were already busy eating, so it works, we all enjoyed it! Do I recommend this place, absolutely.

Located on the main strip (Princess Street) in…read moreKingston I remember the menu being more focused on sandwiches, burgers, salads etc On this visit the menu was mainly pizza and pasta's so maybe the focus has changed? They have a decent cocktail menu. What was ordered: Pasta Bolognese - sauce was okay by the pasta they chose was broken pieces of a flat pasta Rigatoni Barolo - beef was really tender but there wasn't enough rapini Drunken Canadian Pizza - parts of the crust was almost burnt. Pizza itself was okay. Food seem to take along time to arrive and it wasn't busy (only 2 other small groups in the restaurant). Service was decent enough despite there being only 1 server at the time. Restrooms are downstairs and not accessible. All dishes are in the 18-22 dollar range with the exception of the shareable dishes they have which are priced slightly higher.

We saw a number of people leave the restaurant because they waited too long for someone to come over or drinks to come etc. We ordered not too long after we sat down. A grilled cheese for our daughter, tomato soup for me and a club sandwich for my hubby. In our experience typically kids meals come out the quickest but not in our case. Somehow our order took almost an hour to come out of the kitchen. Our server was sweet and it wasn't her fault but we weren't offered anything while we waited. While the food tasted pretty good, it was a bit of a struggle to entertain our bored and hungry toddler. If you're not in a rush, definitely check this place out!

Monday evening, a lot of other local places were closed, looked interesting from the outside. Should have stopped there! It was not busy at all, 5 tables. Seated rather quickly. Menus on table good! Then.................it took awhile before waitress came to get drinks and apps order. Then it took another long while to get 4 drinks. Again, 5 tables. I am from Montreal and we are used to "casual" service, but the waitress was chatty Cathy and yacking it up with a couple at the bar. So eventually drinks came.... Apps when they came out were good. Bruchetta did come out wet, the cook should have grilled the bread before putting the toppings on, then flash heated under the salamander. But overall an ok start. However the silverware and napkins were not on the table, bit of a delay but they came with some water at the table. Then the long wait came....waitress chatted with bar patrons, then two women came in who the waitress knew, she seated them in the back and sat down with them and chatted.....and chatted. I finally had to get up, approach the waitress (she saw me get up and shot over from the chatty table) and ask for a second round of drinks, refill of the water jug (no service pours here) and ask about the food. Then another wait......drinks come out. No food. Waitress saunters to the kitchen and food arrives. We had the vodka gnocchi and tomato bowtie pasta. All 4 plates had been sitting under a heat lamp. Gnocchi had a decent rosé sauce, but definitely not a vodka sauce. Sun dried tomato bowtie with chicken came out oily with no tomato taste, and the chicken was dried out. Not even worthy to take home. My daughters ordered mock drinks, but we were charged full price for drinks. When my partner explained to the waitress that her plate was oily and dry, the waitress did offer to replace it, but we would still be waiting for that to be served if we took her up on it. Waitress simply took the plate off of the bill. Clear the staff is not motivated and this place will close soon if this is the norm. Avoid....there are much better places to go in Kingston!
