Best Neighbourhood Gem Restaurants in Kingston

Excellent service and food. I would definitely return.

Exactly what you would expect at a true dark wood steak house. The bartenders were very friendly. And I know it's all about the beef but, the baked potatos.oh my, absolutely fantastic.

Saturday January 4. The Venetian is the epitome of Christmas festivities, colorful and decorated tastefully in every possible space. You must make it a family tradition to go during the Christmas season. We ordered the rigatoni à la vodka with shrimp and scallops, pasta was perfect al dente, shrimps were tender and scallops were sweet. Appetizer was eggplant, stacked, olive oil and seasonings, no tomato sauce and was actually delicious enough to order again. Food and service was excellent, so was the wine and cocktails. A favorite restaurant! We will definitely go back again and again. Before you sit, check out which table they want to seat you at and make sure it is not in the back room where they put screaming , out of control kids, which is the parents fault and not The Restaurant. There were two tables, each had three or four children, one table so well behaved and the other table thought they were on the hockey rink. Before a parent complains about my insensitivity, I have five children and five young grandchildren, and they all know the difference from Restaurant behavior to schoolyard rowdiness, with guidance from their parents . I hope the parents at that table read this. Viva La difference’ and Happy New Year.

Fri, Jan 3rd: My family and I had the best experience. We requested a quiet table upstairs to avoid the more "bustling" atmosphere downstairs. The cocktails, apps, steaks, sides and wine were all mouth watering and top notch; but our waiter, Troy, made the evening that much more memorable. His attention to detail, suggestions, and overall service were impeccable. We will request his table on future visits!

The food was excellent, everything we ordered was very good. If you want a cocktail off the menu they are good, otherwise stick to water. We went for brunch, ordered coffee which they had. Coffee is below average. We didn’t mind since the food was m very very good.
