Best Restaurants for Foodies in St. Catharines

Food was great - got a lot of seafood which I didn’t expect. Only downside was the seating which was a bit uncomfortable (seat back was quite deep)

What a wonderful meal and experience! Both our appetizers were delicious and beautifully presented. The Pickled Heirloom Beets & Endive Salad was bursting with flavour. My husband raved about his scallops. Our salmon and angus beef entrees were flavourful and artfully presented. We enjoyed the Ontario Cheese Plate and the Basque Cheesecake. Each of our courses was paired with the perfect selection of Niagara College wine (including icewine). Our server Anjali went above and beyond to provide exceptional service. She genuinely cared about making our experience memorable. She even brought us complimentary sparkling wine to celebrate my birthday. Benchmark is the perfect restaurant if you want to enjoy excellent food in a welcoming and attentive environment.

Great time great service and always best food 👌🏼and always getting better and better with the food and service. Test amazing

Wonderful experience. Both my husband and I had the three course menu. We probably would have gotten the five course but there were no vegetarian options for some of the courses, so we got the three. Still lovely. Brought us a glass of champagne to start which was thoughtful and very good. We got the sourdough bread and rosemary cracker as a starter. The breads were wonderful, the spread weren’t as flab as I would have like. For the first course, I got the Ontario Mushroom Collection which was amazing- probably the best thing I had all evening- and my husband got the duck apple parfait which he loved. For the entree, I had the linguini which was good- only vegetarian option- but my husband had the lamb tasting which he thought was wonderful. For dessert, we split the Vanilla Profiterole, delicious. We brought the goat cheese dessert home to our daughter, she ate it. Service was wonderful, good wine suggestions. Really enjoyed the experience.

The food was fabulous and so was the service. Great portions and more if you wanted. Great experience all around!
