Great food, but the manager made some tasteless comments towards some of our guests.

Restaurant is so pretty, not overly busy, service was good but when mains arrived - they were lukewarm. (No one checked with us to see how our meals were).

Love the decor and ambiance. Exceptional service - friendly, attentive. Food was delicious. Caesar salad is my favourite of all restaurants. The Campanelle dish with walnuts and Brussels sprouts was incredible. Beautiful wine selection.

Annabelle's is a very cute restaurant on the inside, it's nice it's on Steven Avenue but there was multiple police cars with bright flashing lights outside the window which unfortunately diminished the ambiance quite a bit. My friends and I got 2 of the pasta dishes and an appetizer which was good to split but the prices are already pretty pricey especially with the quantity that you get disappointingly. The food tasted good but definitely should be nowhere near that pricey in my opinion. Our server was a bit pushy with the bill which bothered me quite a bit since the restaurant was barely busy at all so there was no real reason to basically shove us out of there. Overall the food was nice but I wouldn't go back until the sizes where a but bigger or cheaper.

Squid prawn pasta is really good, other type of pasta just average, takes about 30mins to serve the dishes together, price a bit high

I had a fantastic anniversary dinner at Annabelle’s Kitchen Downtown. The food was exceptional, clearly made with care, and the service was attentive without being intrusive. The atmosphere was great, though a loud customer caused a slight disruption. Overall, a wonderful experience that I’ll definitely repeat!

Great experience dining here just prior to Christmas. Attentive, friendly service; nice vibe and an excellent wine selection. Food was wonderful and pricing very fair. The associated Whisky bar next door is icing on the cake.
