This place is an absolute must try if you've never had Georgian cuisine. We also tried shkmeruli, which is roasted chicken leg quarters doused in the creamiest, most decadent garlic cream sauce. Kind of like alfredo on crack. And dipping into it with the khinkali bread?! Heaven. You have to experience it for yourself. Service was amazing, the waitstaff gave great hospitality and they all went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our experience. Shoutout to the girl who gave us a super fun tableside mixing presentation!! Try to get a table inside, however their street patio is nice to eat on when the weather is decent. Absolutely will be returning to try their lamb khinkali which unfortunately they were sold out of today. Prices were super reasonable for the amount of food we were served. There was even enough for leftovers between two girls who hadn't eaten all day & had smoked right before coming here.

They also serve dinner in case you're interested.

Eggs benedict - was disappointed because the eggs were overcooked (same for the rest of the 4/6 friends who attended breakfast). The hollandaise sauce drenched my English muffin and made the bread soggy. Egg on the side - the waitress suggested I order a poached egg when I wanted an over easy egg. Probably knew the egg was going to be overcooked. Service: Needs some attention to detail with food and service. Sugar not on table when coffee was served. Someone ordered sourdough bread (extra $2) but received whole wheat. Food is average for the price + automatic 18% gratuity for 6 guests.

Better than what you can get at a regular grocery store, and its cheap. You can go next door to the small Loblaws and get the rest of your groceries, but buy your produce here. With a TD across the street, a multitude of coffee shops nearby...why go anywhere else?!

I've known one since we were in grade 1. I became friends with the other two when we were in grade 7. All four of us were in the Extended French program in grade 7. Three of us dropped out by the time we got into high school together. One friend lives in Hong Kong and was in town for two weeks. She asked me if I was free on Sunday. It was Father's Day, but I had seen my dad already in the morning and was going to return for dinner at night. I said yes. I'm glad that I did. We had a reservation at The Kingston House for noon. It was my first time here. It used to be the Grover Exchange for many years. It was fitting that we came here for bunch. It's a few blocks away from where we all attended high school. I took backroads to get here. There was parking behind the eatery. I backed into a spot at around 11:45 am. Spaces are limited. There were five left. I walked in and saw the Father's Day buffet spread. It looked good. I stood waited to be seated. My friend who lives in Hong Kong was at the back of the restaurant and waved frantically at me. One friend came in ten minutes after I had. She could only stay briefly. I was happy that she came for coffee and a good chat. I hadn't seen her since we graduated from high school. My friend from grade 1 came in last. The TTC was on a Sunday schedule and she was late thanks to a bunch of detours. I hadn't seen her since we were undergraduates. What is special about the Kingston House is that brunch goes until 4 pm. We stayed for almost four hours and staff did not kick us out. We needed four hours to catch up. We picked up from where we all left off. It was nice. The Father's Day buffet was $45 per person. It had pastries, salad, a roast beef carvery, two types of eggs benedict, mussels, french toast with berries, a chocolate fountain with fruit, and a whole lot more. It was impressive. I will admit that I didn't gorge as much as I should have. I felt like my friends and I were in the same boat. Our conversation was so good that we almost had to nudge ourselves to eat! I got a mimosa. It was $8 for the first one. If you wanted more, it was $5 each. Such a steal! I loved mine. It was refreshing, a bit bubbly, and yummy. We got a lot of water refills. Staff were super patient, friendly, and attentive. I loved chatting with our female server, who went to Notre Dame High School down the street and was bummed out that she didn't have woodworking class there. Her brothers did at Neil McNeil. Crazy how you come back to the Beaches, you talk to locals, and you feel like you still live there. My first plate at the buffet consisted of mussels, peameal bacon benedict, bacon, and sausage. Everything was delicious. My second place was full-on carbs. I wanted the french toast with berries, which was fantastic! Next to the french toast were bread pudding and apple crumble, which are two of my favourite desserts. I loved it all. I got a huge scoop of potato salad. It was so good. I am a dill fan and this salad had a ton of dill that made me so happy. I also felt the need to balance everything with a plate of fruit. I had pineapple, cantaloupe, and honeydew melon chunks. They were sweet and so good to finish off my meal. I used the washroom twice, which was downstairs. It's an older building, so it's not great on the accessibility scale. The women's washroom was clean and spacious. Downstairs had live jazz music happening. It was a nice touch. I got to check out two different acts performing while I was briefly down there. There was also a full bar. I saw a pool table, but it was covered. This downstairs area is used for various events. It's cozy and cool. I briefly saw the patio. It was popular with all the dads and their families. We stayed inside, which I liked. I paid with a credit card. I tapped and tipped. All was great. I'd love to return and focus on the food! I felt that my food took a backseat. That's okay. It's not every day that you get to hang out with friends whom you haven't seen in eons in the neighbourhood in which you all grew up. (205)

The service is also quick, however if you go on a weekend you might have to wait a bit for a table as it tends to get very busy.

The portion was big and the sides of fries were good. Next time though, I'll stick with the sampler as I feel it's more worth the money.

The puffed up edge crust with dark charred blisters - excites me. We got (delivery): # Margherita: Classic and great! But I thought this one is best enjoyed immediately out of oven because of the simple fresh ingredients. Next time! # Smoked Meat: This one is SOOO GOOD. The generous and perfect amount of meet. Caramelised onions are thickly cut, tender and naturally sweet, but miraculously leaving some tender-crunch in the middle. Espresso aioli and parsley emulsion (sauce) were added depth to flavour. Chili flakes completes the whole. Super well balanced, so good so good!! # Speck baffala: Super savory. Intensely rich sun-dried tomato paste meeting silky cheese based sauce and pistachio pesto. Tender crispy- roast-y eggplant pieces give it a nice aroma. Fresh cheese. Fine taralli (cracker) crumble are scattered over it, when baked, give the pizza a flaky texture to it.... overwhelmingly (in a super good way) rich and again, very well balanced. Highly highly recommend! I am so lucky to work close from here. I am addicted. I want to try all the pizzas they have~~~~~~~~~~~!!!!

Wild Oregano serves mainly Greek / Mediterranean dishes (gyros, moussaka, grilled fish and seafood…read moreoptions, Greek salad), with some eclectic dishes including Italian (pastas), Asian / Thai-inspired (fish with Thai sauce and Thai-style stir-fry), British (English-style fish and chips), Chinese-inspired (Shanghai kung pao shrimps & chicken stir-fried with vegetables), Hungarian (goulash), American (burgers), French (French onion soup), Middle Eastern (falafels), and an extensive breakfast / brunch menu that they seem to serve all day (we were offered both the dinner and breakfast menus in late afternoon). Location is quite scenic and conveniently located right across Kew Beach and Public Library, with street parking and Green P parking nearby. It's also steps away from Queen Street streetcar stops. We came without a reservation and were seated right away (the restaurant wasn't very busy on a weekend afternoon that day). Our server was very friendly and on the ball. The chef came out a few times to ask how the food was, made sure everything was ok, and was super nice as well. Food was very delicious - loved everything from the 2 different salmon dishes that we got (Light Choice Roasted Salmon Fillet with lemon garlic sauce, and Cedar Plank Salmon that we got with the pesto and feta cheese on the side). The Grilled Calamari was very flavourful with the marinade, and it was perfectly cooked without being too chewy or rubbery (not overly cooked). All main dishes came with a choice of carbs (rice, French fries, mashed potatoes, or lemon potatoes) and either a House or Greek Salad. We swapped our carbs with Grilled Vegetables as the sides, with House Salads, then added on basmati rice and lemon potatoes as additional sides. Everything was great! They gave complimentary bread slices and mezzes (hummus, eggplant-tomato mixture, and baba ganoush). The baba ganoush especially was really good on the lemon potatoes, grilled vegetables, and mixed in with the rice. Grilled vegetables consisted of green and red bell peppers and zucchini - all nicely grilled, still crisp (not overcooked), and not oily at all. Perfection. It was a very satisfying meal with great service.

The cabbage roll is like nothing I've tasted before! It's filled with falafel and lentils. There's a tangy sauce on top. The samosas are spicy and, like anything you order here, you can see the ingredients. I have enjoyed the vegetarian and chicken. Both good. The staff are conscientious and put each order together as they are ordered. There is usually a small line up of 3-4 people, so you know there are people willing to wait for the food. - it's that good. The only thing I would have different in a future order is to ask for my cabbage roll to warmed all the way through. It was warmed up, but given its substantial size, it was cold in the middle. It tasted fine (I was hungry), but I'm sure the flavours would come through even better when heated up longer.
