And the wine was also tasty. Next time I'll try a cocktail! The service was great. We started with the sourdough (which came out hot from the oven), butter, and grilled winter pesto. The pesto was smoky and hearty. The butter also had a wonderful flavor. We also had lamb pasta with olives and anchovies, pork collar, and smoked carrots with feta and dill. Amazing flavors with those dishes as well. Then we finishes with the blood orange tartlet and sourdough sundae. The mix of flavors in the sourdough sundae was incredible. One of my favorite desserts that I've had in a long time! I already look forward to returning. Their menu changes regularly, so maybe there will be some new items to try next time.

I usually don't white wine outside of summer, but I ended up getting two glasses of a fruity floral one. I was torn between the sparkling pink or the sparkling white, and I usually go for the pink. But they highly recommended the white, and it was *incredible*. A french sparkling white but not champagne, it was the Domaine de Facteur 'La Bulle de Facteur' 2023, the notes said "green apple, florals and honey, a hint of lychee, and plenty of minerality". My mouth waters just thinking of it. We also tried a little charcuterie meat and cheese board of sorts, but honestly, they weren't amazing. Pricey for what you get and nothing really notable. I feel like this spot is better pre or post meal. Drinks and vibe were 100, so I'll be back later for that wine.

What a cozy spot! Love the ambiance in here, fresh food served with a twist of west coast flair!read more

This was my second visit to Sonder, a total gem in Kingston. The first visit, we tried the…read morecornichon burger with tots, and the second visit was because I was craving that burger, this time with fries. It really is incredible. Juicy and fresh, and the cornichon touch instead of pickles is perfect. Last time was the dead of winter so we were inside with the disco balls and fun table candles that are a melted concoction. It's very clean, and in the winter the walls were dark green, and this time they were light green. Because of the amazing weather we sat outside, and the waiter Remy made sure to find us a spot that was perfect for our table of two. The string lights and fans were fantastic additions, it felt transportive. We always have the best experience with the servers, and this time it was Remy who was a refreshing delight. Fresh from France, he knows the wine and helped us make the best selection. He's hilarious and real, and so fun. I love the descriptions of the wine on the menu. Give it a good read, it's very entertaining. Pair it with the burger and a glass of vino, and you're set for a great night.

And it's not just the creative food, the outstanding wines, or the accommodating service. It's the one thing that all great restaurants have: an absolute commitment to making sure each customer has a fantastic experience. You can serve all the tasty food you want, but without that commitment, you'll always be good and not great. It's something these folks understand. I'm guessing it's also why everyone - and I mean everyone - we saw in the restaurant during our last visit had a big smile on their face. So yeah, we could recommend the outrageously delicious Balkan platter, the innovative pastas, or the proteins with avant garde flavor combinations. We could talk about the deep, rich wines from Croatia and Slovenia. We could muse about the modern surroundings with rustic touches. But all of that is subservient to the main point here: This is a great restaurant operating at the top of its game. It's worth the visit. It's worth a detour. I know - the secret will be out. But these folks deserve it.

She suggested the board with smoked mackerel, served with warm bread, avocado crema, juicy cherry tomatoes and gherkins. Beautifully presented and so delicious. We loved our Pinots and of course I indulged in a second glass. Peace, The Happy Hour Huntress
