Reviews of Gnosh Dining + Cocktails (Restaurant)

Had my 21st birthday dinner here with 16 girls... they put us in a little side room so it was really nice and felt private! Everything was amazing, my whole table ordered aperol spritz after mine came because they were so big and yummy, their charcuterie board is the best I have ever ordered at a restaurant, and they brought me a full piece of oreo cheesecake to sing me happy birthday!! Great experience :)

Wow! The service, food and atmosphere is 100% one of the best I've ever had. I came here from 2 hrs away to celebrate a birthday and made a reservation in advance and we were treated to a candle on a cheesecake and it made his night. Thank you so so so much. Try the scallops!

Disappointed in the taste and lack of attention to details. Went for Londonliscious, mentioned gluten free and when I ordered waiter never asked about the allergy. Ordered fries and now feel sick, my mistake for not asking further. Food was delivered and when asked if gluten free he quickly said yes, then walked around table and said wait, no they have a penko crust, after I ate another fry. The food lacked flavour and I left feeling hungry. Used to love it when it was under the previous name, now just disappointed.

The food and service was excellent. We showed up without a reservation due to a freak rainstorm washing out a festival we were planning to attend. They gave us a private room for our group of six. We had a 4 year old and 2 year old in tow, they did not frown upon us and even had a children's menu. We will definitely be back sometime for date night.

Yikes. My husband and I came here for Valentine’s Day and it was truly one of the worst dining experiences we’ve ever had. First, I’d like to state that our poor waiter was so obviously stressed out as they were extremely understaffed, …

Chris Overholster

Have always very much enjoyed this restaurant and always make a point of bringing guests here when they visit London. Unfortunately for the first time I had an experience that went beyond disappointing both from the service and food. I went there to celebrate an early Valentines day ordered drinks and two Noshes (The lamb and mussels) which were actually very well done and we enjoyed throughly. The disappointment came when we ordered the pasta special of the day, the beef was well over-cooked and had a taste to it that was off. We wanted to bring this to the attention of the staff but after or orders came our server would zip by us without making any eye contact for at least 20 minutes. When the manager of the day came by to collect the plates we mentioned the beef was off, we left most of the food on the plate. He apologized. Several minutes later our server came by with a cheesecake and said, "apparently I heard your food was bad and they got a cheesecake for you, I'm also supposed to ask if you wanted anything else coffee or tea?" afterwards we were left unattended until we asked an alternate server for our bill and left. The attitude was very off-putting, there were no questions about why the food was bad and we were made to feel as if it were our fault. While my previous experiences with other staff at Blue-Duby have always been great and the appetizers as well as several mains have always been great, this one experience has definitely made me wary of taking visitors here in the future. Hopefully it was only a one off.

Went here with my partner for dinner on a sat eve and loved it. Everything was delicious and beautiful presentation. Service was excellent and guidelines visibly in place for Covid. We felt safe while fully enjoying our dining experience. Loved the scallops!!

Michael Rose

Food was delicious and looked awesome. I would totally recommend, it was the best Valentine's dinner ever. Hope you can check it out sometime!

Chris Reid

We had reservations for 8pm on Jan 24/20 for my husband's birthday and the service was extremely slow. It took us over 40 minutes just to get our appetizers. We told them it was my husband's bday and they wished him a happy birthday and seated us. When we had paid and were leaving another gentleman was also here for his bday and they gave him and his wife a bday shot from the bar the counter we were checking our coats at. We weren't offered anything special for my husband so it made us a little upset and offendee woso wen't be going back.

The food wasn't great and Sophie saw a mouse. Disgusting place.

Daniel T

Another great evening with Ray taking great care of me and my dear friend Kathy McLaughlin. I am always so pleased with the delicious gluten free options on the menu for someone like myself with celiac disease. Gnosh is always our go-to restaurant when we want a relaxing place to catch-up, enjoy a glass of wine, delicious food and wonderful service. Thanks so much Ray for always being so thoughtful, friendly and always making sure that we have our wine glasses full!

Jason C

My partner and I went for dinner and were welcomed into the comfortable atmosphere. The food was excellent, though they initially got my order wrong, and the staff were polite and knowledgeable about the menu. It’s in a great location in downtown London, but my only wish is that they didn’t have a guitar performer. It didn’t suit the venue, in my opinion, and I found it distracting.

Adam Germain

We chose this place for a family gathering. They cater to a varied dietary range and since we had some family with gluten allergy, allergy to dairy, nuts, vegan etc. It was a perfect fit. There were about 35 of us and the service was quite good. The special pasta was too spicy but other than that the meals were good. We weren't impressed with the chocolate ganache cake was so so. Over all a positive experience.

Albert Arevalo

**Update: Came in and ordered the Fish & Chips and was amazed by its presentation, portion and flavour. Unfortunately no craft beers were on offer which was a bit disappointing but there were several commercial brands. The Carrot Cake was also good quality but slightly too sweet. Generally exceptional service and food. The French fries are to die for here. I upgraded this restaurant from 4 to 5 stars on this occassion.** Ordered the French Burger with fries and an Okanogan Green Apple Cider. At $18.00 the burger was definitely underwhelming and unfortunately under seasoned. Neither enough salt nor enough pepper was put into the mix and the meat itself had an oddly pate-ish texture like it had been ground too much or a lack of texture. When you charge top dollar for a burger it should be impeccable and this burger definitely was not primarily due to a lack of flavour. The bun was an in-house made focaccia which is better than what you can expect in some restaurants that charge similar prices. The fries where beautifully crispy, hot and salty which I appreciated. Paired with the Okanogan Green Apple Cider which was surprisingly refreshing on a hot summer day it was almost a perfect meal where it not for the burger patty. The patio was well laid out and comfortable and the service was sincere, polite and attentive. A nice place to sit for a meal by oneself or with a friend or several with many positive points but with room for improvement.

rebecca henry

The food was amazing and delicious. The service was not. We were a party of 9 and reserved weeks in advance. We were there for the blizzard edition Londonliscous and it took 3 hours for our 3 course meal. At one point outr appetizers were all delivered and left at the table beside us for 5-10 minutes before finally being served to us. We had already had to ask after the food as it was taking so long. Dessert was brought for one of our party at least 10-15 before the rest were served.

Michelle Edwards

From the moment we were seated outside to the sweet sounds of live music, right through to the delicious chocolate cake dessert, everything was top notch. The service was attentive and responsive, the Londonlicious menu had enough varieties to satisfy everyone, and the food was delicious! I had the Caesar Salad, followed by a steak entree and the aforementioned cake. Portions were large and the food was fresh and incredibly tasty. Friends tried the wontons, the mussels and the wings, with everyone enjoying their first course. They moved on to pasta and a pork dish which they both enjoyed. Looking forward to our next visit. Thanks to Joe for being a great host. The only thing that would've made the evening better? Due to competing live musicians outside, we ended up finishing our evening inside the restaurant. All of the staff and the majority of the diners were respectful and kept their masks on when moving around. If certain restaurant guests(who apparently are unaware of the mask mandate) would have put on their masks when moving around the restaurant, everyone in my party would have been more comfortable and this would have been the best night out since we don't know when!

Carolyn Tomkins

You won't be disappointed with the atmosphere or meal at Gnosh. The menu is full of delicious dishes, and there is a good variety to please most eaters, without it being overwhelming. I highly recommend trying some of their cocktails. They are dangerously good and go down very easy. The service is great. I was overall really happy with my experience.

David Yun

I understand that dining during a pandemic requires patience, particularly on a busy occasion like Valentines Day. Dining at Gnosh was a thoroughly disappointing experience and put a damper on our Valentine’s Day. …

Melissa Apolinario

Great relaxing restaurant, great service , very enjoyable, highly recommend

Michelle Faulds

Out for our 47th anniversary, food recommendation was really good. The stuffed chicken breast for her & my beef rid just fell apart just right. The best eats. Our waiter was spot on. Will be back, why go any place else.

Terri-Anne Norwood-Shaw

I've been here twice: once on a dinner date and once for lunch after a city hall wedding (four people total). Both times the food has been excellent, although the dinner menu is pricey. The service is fast and friendly but I've never been when it's busy. When we came for lunch the bride was brought a complimentary cheesecake after the meal and everyone was very happy with every part of the experience.

Alyssa D

My partner and I ordered room service from Gnosh, and WOW!!! Amazing food, such a delicacy…. We ordered the steaks with mash & vegetables…. Incredible to say the least. If I have the funds I would eat here everyday lol.

Jenny Boyce

My husband and I went here for the first time for our anniversary and it was phenomenal!!! We had the place to ourselves, as we went late in a Tuesday evening and it was amazing! The food was probably the best I’ve had in the city. We …

Nicole

The food was great and the staff were friendly and quick. The waitress we had checked up on us frequently making sure our needs were met. The only qualm I have is that the particular day we went there was a loud group other than that everything was perfect.

Clenry Guzman

Atmosphere was nice. The food was nothing special and slightly over cooked. The menu had lots of gluten free options and the only reason for the 3 star ranking. Convenient for downtown.

Hayden MacDonald

Went on a Wednesday night with my husband. I should mention, that we had 4 appetizers instead of entrées, so I cannot critique those. We each started with a cocktail, both excellent, and later had wine. Decent wine selections available as well. In general, the menu has some items that are diverse, interesting, or unique takes on something more common. That is a must for me with fine dining, otherwise I cannot consider it "fine". So let me be clear, this is a good fine dining establishment. But it's not exceptional. London has very few exceptional places when it comes to fine dining though. (My opinion). We shared the charcuterie board, which was okay. But honestly, it was 3 firm cheeses, all similar to something you might carry in your fridge. Nothing special, no soft cheeses or something interesting. Same can be said for the 3 meat choices: the usual. Prosciutto and 2 types of salami. I would not order it again because it is something I can make at home. Literally. Scallops. They were cooked to perfection! However the pernod cream was bland, and I struggled to find the complimentary flavors served in the dish. We ended up squeezing all the lemon we had (including from our waters), all over the scallops to add that boost of flavor. Mac n cheese Gnocchi. Excellent idea, but slightly bland execution. However, had we added the bacon and lobster to it (optional), I know we would've liked this more. So I guess my only criticism is that the dish itself was watery, maybe not as thick as I'd like. Mushroom tart - the best thing we had that night! We chose to add the duck, but you honestly don't need it. It really is perfectly done! Savory flavours burst out of the pastry, and you can see there are different types of fresh mushrooms used in the dish! All in all, the dining experience was really good! But not great or exceptional. So I have to give 4 stars instead of 5. I would give 4.5 if I could, but with 2 dishes being bland, and the charcuterie being boring, I just can't.. Sorry Joe.

Michelle Robert-Cronin

Atmosphere was stunning and brand new. Had the lobster and bacon gnocchi, and my date ordered the pasta special (very generous portion sizing!) And both were phenomenal. Service was great, and you cant go wrong with a nice wine list either!

Lyndsey Ryan

Over the past year I have returned to the Blu Duby numerous times with family, friends, colleagues and clients. Each visit has been a great experience. The staff is welcoming and the food is fantastic! They update the menu throughout the year so there is always something new to try! I would recommend this restaurant to anyone!

Alia “Food for thought”

Beautiful restaurant. Both the amazing Server & Bartender are excellent at their profession tried their best despite being short staffed for the size of the restaurant and numbers of diners. Service was very slow as a result. My marinated steak cooked at Medium Rare was overdone, dry chewy and I had to leave most of it. The Death by Chocolate cake was amazing as was the Rabbit (duck?) Tempura dumplings. The sauce served with it was sublimely delicious. Would crave those dumplings forever and a day!

Christopher Barrick

Great atmosphere and fun staff. This place was fancy and a great place for a date with your wife or girlfriend (maybe don't bring both!). The downtown location is great and it's attached to the Hotel Metro. We had a great time and would definitely go again.

Jim Beretta

The most attentive waiters I've ever had. They are so sweet, friendly, and funny. They made the night for us. I had the stuffed portobello mushrooms, a bit smaller than I hoped but very yummy. The dessert was extra delicious .

Eric Wong

ordered the spicy beef soup as an appetizer and it was insanely good. so good in fact that the rest of our dinner seemed bland in comparison - that's not to say the food wasn't tasty tho!

Lina Lalonde

Second time going, the food is very good, and the service is pretty fast. The chef puts care into the food you can tell. Same waiter from last time, not sure of his name, but he remembered us. He was great last time and this time as well. Hostess or whoever he was, was not very friendly, no warm greeting and after spending $130 in your establishment I think you can muster a "Have a good night" just stood there with a disgusted look on his face as we exited. Not a very good look for the restaurant. Otherwise, nice visit, may or may not be back

Michelle Wong

Service was great, food tasted good. Too bad the protein was just a little undercooked and I spent the night not feeling well.

Casey Haas

Service was A++. Great Craft Beer on tap( Cameron's Brewing Co. ), I recommend the Captain's Log Lager. Wendy's Korean Dumplings where a great start to the meal. I had the special ( A beef tenderloin) which was kinda small and not cooked to order ( med rare ).

urb yoa

Great Food, Bad Service. Recently made a reservation to celebrate a birthday. The owner/manager (Joe) was great via email and even promised to put a candle on the dessert for the birthday girl. Upon arriving the younger server notified us that we were the only reservation of the night. The food and drinks were impeccable - best cocktails and great wine recommendations that paired well with the incredible food. However, we were ignored for the better portion of the meal and it took 20 minutes for the final bill to arrive (and it was just one bill). Disappointing - especially since we had made a reservation for a birthday, I had expected better service. The younger server apologized for the length of time it took to get the bill but our older male server didn't acknowledge the poor service at all. They also went back and forth so we didn't see our primary server except for the food service and ordering. Also - no birthday candle/wish for the birthday girl :( - not sure what was the point of the reservation. I worked in service and understand it was busy but all I would have liked was the acknowledgement of poor service and an apology. It also shouldn't take 20 minutes to print one bill and then another 5 to come round with the machine after the long wait - not to mention the 15 minute wait to order after drinks. The only reason, I gave 3 stars was because the food was so phenomenal!

Deena Abbas

The food was incredible! I had the Canadian burger and a cesar salad. This was THE best dressing I have ever had. They seriously should bottle and sell it! Rena, Matt, and Larry, the staff there, took great care of me and were attentive without being intrusive. The atmosphere is warm and cozy, especially on a cold day. I would love to go back in the evening and see it all lit up with candles and Christmas lights. Next time! I strongly recommend checking it out if you are in London. The prices are very reasonable, especially for the quality of the food! It was a lovely way to spend my lunch hour and am already looking forward to going back!

Ian Anderson

Friendly service. The first time I went, I had the blue cheese gnocchi. It blew my mind it was so good. The second time I ordered fish. It was pretty decent. The prices seemed reasonable to me. Great atmosphere for a date.

Tatiana TTV

Excellent service, honest, delicious food. Great ambience. Will definitely visit again. Balanced, delicious menu. Super wine list. All the best.

Courtney Stache

Honestly this place is great so far. But need to dine here for dinner. Ray the server is great very responsive and attentive. I would like to go back and fully experience it. I am looking forward the today I do.

Tarry Phillip

Really nice restaurant with very flavourful options. The meals were quite rich and creamy and we enjoyed our time at Blu Duby. We ordered the Lobster Mac' and Cheese, and the Escargot for Appetizer. They were both well done and the Mac and Cheese was actually quite good. For our mains we had the Wild Mushroom Risotto w/Lamb and the Duo of Game (Duck and Lamb). The Risotto was a bit tangy but the Lamb was a great balance, just as our waitress recommended. The Duo also included garlic whipped potatoes which was our favourite part of the meal. The price was quite reasonable as everything came up to about $100. Would definitely return if we are ever passing through London. Though the place was busy we did not have any issues with service and everything seem to arrive on time.

Mandie Purdy

Great service. Had the steak and frites. Fries were crispy and tasty. The steak was a let down. Very forgettable in quality and they put a red sauce that seemed very much like ketchup which did not complement the meat at all.

Matt D

Excellent dining as advertised. I shared the very rich escargot appetizer with a friend and then had the gnocchi as a main. Both were delicious and super flavourful. Service could have been a little friendlier but we were a large party, so I understand the waiter was likely stressed. Be warned that it is among the pricier restaurants downtown.

sandra matyuska

Just a meh experience. The chicken in the pad thai tasted as if it were prepackaged. The sauce on the pork was over salty. My sister was celebrating her birthday and was brought out a complimentary piece of cheesecake which was …

amcoopa

We met the owner to plan our wedding dinner and reception and he was first a half hour late and promised to get back to us with the contract in two weeks it's been a year and even marked us down in their calender. We sent several emails with no reply. Poor quality of food and service.

Kevin Taylor

We went in with a big group and they had a perfect room for us all set up. The waiter was funny and friendly, the drink options were good, and the food was good. We attended for lunch and they were sure to get the food out quickly but not rush anyone out for the people that lingered to chat for a while. It was so good we decided to book our next event in advance!

Joel Haney

Came here for an anniversary dinner with my partner and we had an incredible time. The food was wonderful, the atmosphere was perfect and the service was impeccable. We will absolutely be back!

Lawrence Mullen

We had an excellent lunch. I had pan fried trout with a lemon caper sauce on a bed of risotto (the daily special) and my wife had Pad Thai with chicken. She had Chardonnay, I Pinot Noir. I had the cheesecake special for dessert. Everything was excellent. Service was attentive and efficient. Good times.

Andrea Henning

This place was once Braised and it was amazing Then it became Blu Duby and the quality dropped immensely. I was hopeful with the rebranding of Gnosh but unfortunately it hasn't improved much. The service was wonderful. I have no complaints in that regard. The staff are friendly and attentive. The ambience is great as well. It has a nice modern look. This place keeps falling short on food/cocktails. My old fashion was more water than flavour. The appetizers are described well in their menu but flavour is quite lacking as well. My wife and I were almost certain their duck wontons were thawed from a box. The charcuterie board was a disappointing assembly of 2 generic cheeses, prosciutto and kebosa. I think it's fair to be critical of this given the wonderful findings 50ft away at Covent garden as well as the weekly farmers market. It's just a bad start overall to the dining experience. Our mains weren't bad at all. I think I was just disappointed given the level of the setting and service. The dessert was not finished as it was so blah. I feel bad for being so critical but this place just falls short as a food experience when it's service, structure and price show it striving to be so much more. I must say there's a great deal on the menu and they can accommodate a lot of dietary restrictions. I feel I may have one more try left in me for this establishment and then it's done

Terry Taylor

Downtown London location is superb! The food is fantastic. This visit we loved the pickeral, risotto, salad, soup, and cheesecake. The ambiance is what I call upscale relaxed. Business lunches, chance get-togethers, parties, romantic …

John Hassan

First indoor dining experience in a while and Gnosh is just as good as it has always been. In my experience still one of the best downtown London dining experiences and solidly remaining in my top 3 eating spots in the Forest City. The open …

Sandra Hernandez

Best cheese board in London! I got the charcuterie board and switched out the meat for roasted garlic and shrimp. So delicious! The menu is amazing and 5 star service also. Will definitely be back.

Judy Mills-McConnell

Surprised my girlfriend with a birthday dinner here and we both loved it. Great attention to dietary restrictions, nice cocktails and great wine. The gnocchi Mac and cheese and the market catch of the day grilled cod were our favourites. Grilled Caesar salad was also delicious. Everything was so good that we didn’t even think to take photos! Great surprise gluten free dessert at the end for my partners birthday was a great touch.

Thivian Vandeyar

The food and atmosphere here is great. There are limited menu items available so any of the more picky eaters in your party may have a hard time. Wait staff are friendly and helpful. Reservations are recommended for dinner service. The bathrooms are in the basement so factor that in for anyone with mobility issues.

Vishal Mehta

Had a wonderful lunch today. First time visitor. Pleasantly surprised because I didn't know about the restaurant. Daughter's recommendation. Good call. They have a great lunch menu. If I remember correctly their promotion offers a choice of 12 items in 12 minutes for 12 dollars. Their offerings were varied. I had the chicken and brie sandwich as did my daughter. My mom and son in law had fish and chips. Exceptional portions. Highly recommend .

M Hancock

Wonderful atmosphere. Excellent service. We all had the Londonlicious menu. The short ribs were very good and the salmon was excellent. Service doesn't get any better. The perfect balance of attentiveness without feeling pestered. We will be back. We highly recommend this restaurant.

Steve N

Amazing food and great atmosphere! Our server was very attentive and also made a great wine recommendation. Everything on the menu sounded so good and I couldn't decide what to get, so I just ordered a bunch of appetizers. I was not disappointed. The winner was definitely the phyllo wrapped baked brie - it was the best baked brie dish that I've ever had! The arancini was delicious, as was the gnocchi mac n cheese which was a fun twist on an Italian classic. Everything tasted great and the presentation was on point. I'll definitely be back!!!

Marcin Tandecki

I normally avoid my hotel’s resto - lifetime of meh experiences - but after searching high and low for something that suited my needs, Gnosh, in the Metro Hotel with entrance on Dundas, was perfect. Got a warm greeting from a restaurant-veteran, a rare treat at the host stand, and was fed a wonderful Mussel app followed by amazing boneless ribs - never lifted my knife. The details were all on point, root vegetables perfect, temperatures ideal, mashed potatoes excellent, feeling like I was surrounded by restaurant professionals wherever I turned. I look forward to my return! (PS - hotel was terrific too)

Leila Nattagh

I must say the service was fantastic when we arrived and throughout most of the evening. The food itself was divine. I can't complain about that. What did upset me was the following: 1. Server discarded requested left overs even after repeating back to us that we wanted it boxed up. It was extremely delicious so we were pretty upset when we got home to eat it. 2. It took over 20 minutes to get a bill. 3. There were multiple errors on the bill (which were immediately corrected upon request). 4. Server took the receipt copy and I had to request a copy of it. We did find the prices to be slightly higher than expected. It would have been nice to review the menu in advance on their website but they did not have this available. All in all a positive experience … but for these reasons I am giving it a 3/5.

Andrew Karram

We loved the layout and decor, new, comfy and inviting. The menu has something for everyone, some unique dishes and some popular favourites like, Pad Thai. The food was very good. Our main server wasn't watchful so alot of waiting and trying to get his attention, short of getting up out of our seats and grabbing him. Other staff were very helpful and attentive. Maybe having a bad night but it will affect us deciding if we will give it a try again.

Serena Williamson

Overall the food is good, but not great. The meats tend to be overdone or salty, lacking other flavour, marinade, spice, or style. Their risotto lacked substance and was bland, and the desserts are simple, but tasty. I would give this a 4-star, except for the fact you are paying a premium for this 'fine dining' experience, and the lack of venue knocks it down a tad.

Sandra W

Wonderful staff, great ambience, absolutely spectacular flavour. Loved it.

Deborah Kuo

Our experience as a group of 8 was pretty terrible here. We had reservations for 730 and did not even have an order taken for food until 845pm. We were served bread but not enough slices for everyone at the table. When the food finally arrived the meat was either over or undercooked. Some meals were ok and others bland from the feedback of the group. We asked for more bread from the server and she kept reassuring us it was coming out of the oven but was never brought to the table. We asked about the details of the sorbet they were serving due to a food allergy and we were told by the server it was "Chapman's" ice cream. Our dinner was finally complete at 10pm and while our party was paying, another server from another table, took the machine from our hands to settle her table before we could finalize payment. Overall, the service was quite poor and slow and the quality of food was at best mediocre. We will not be back or recommending Gosh to anyone.

Mandy Bennett

I loooove this place. The gnocchi and wings are unreal. The cocktails are worth it! Mine tasted like the Fall. I'll be returning!

Keith Hodder

I held a surprise birthday dinner here for my wife. Joe and the staff went above and beyond, the private room was perfect and they set us up a nice appetizers display outside for people to grab on their way in. The food was excellent and service was perfect! We had a great night and will return often.

Robin Bathurst

Very nice restaurant offering good food. The decor and atmosphere is relaxed but on the upper end. Serving staff is very courteous and professional. The food offered is varied, most likely having something for everyone.

Dwayne Noel

The food was remarkable with large portions and great service! I would definitely recommend Blu Duby and I will come back next time I visit London.

Bill Mustard

Amazing food, great staff. I'll be back!

Maria Ferfi

The service was terrible!! The server seemed disinterested and took 30 minutes to even acknowledge our table and then another 30 to come back so we could place our order. We ordered drinks, apps and an entree. Everything was slow. The issue was the service. Not once did he ask what we thought of our meal and when were paying he just walked away. Not a single thank you or goodbye. It was truly bizarre. He seemed more interested in the other table. The restaurant wasn’t busy so I have zero clue why the service was so terrible. Honestly probably one of the worse service experiences I’ve ever had (if not the worse). I won’t be coming here ever again and would not recommend the restaurant to a friend. There are many great restaurants in the city and this is currently not one of them.

Michael Sattin

Went there for my birthday before lockdown and had a delightful time! Great service and amazing food

We went to gNosh for the Blizzard edition of Londonlicious. We had been there when it was Blu Duby and thought it was ok but we read about the new chef and thought we would try again. 3 of the 4 people at our table enjoyed their main dishes. I had a nice mushroom risotto with a fall off the bone lamb shank. Yum! My partner had a terribly dry pork chop stuffed with sausage..definitely needed a sauce or drizzle of some kind. His app was also a very dry "duck wonton"..dry duck and a dry wonton...very disappointing. I was so excited to try the mac and gouda cheese gnocchi...so disappointed as well. It was a white blob of potato and cheese...nothing like I had expected. The cheesecake was apparently delicious but my pot de creme was a small ( like 2 tbsps) of chocolate with a blueberry and a piece of strawberry. Boring! Wine was also ridiculously price. So, the point is that, no, probably won't be back but at least we tried it..

John Smith

We had a reservation at the North location and were moved here due to some unexpected repairs that had to be done. The restaurant provided us with Prosecco and 3 apps to compensate for the inconvenience. Everything tasted amazing. We had the lamb and the snapper and both tasted fabulous along with the apps. We were thoroughly satisfied with the customer service!! Will definitely return.

Justin Peckitt

Excellent food, fine dining with reasonable pricing. Great service from all employees.

William Ian

Wonderful dinner. Had scallops, mussles, dumplings, salad, lamb, lamb shank,rissoto, short ribs and a fabulous bottle of wine. We all loved our meals. Nice server and great local. We would recommend !

M R

I rarely find myself in London but when I do i've had the pleasure of enjoying a meal at Blu Duby. The bartender makes great cocktails and my steak was nicely cooked. Service in my experience has always been speedy. I would recommend to anyone looking for a great meal in the London area.

Paul Douglas

Very impressed with the food and service. Came in for dinner on a busy night without a reservation and were greeted and sat almost immediately. Staff was very friendly and inviting. Each course came out in good time, and was cooked to …

COLIN REDMOND

My husband and I made a reservation for my birthday celebration. From speaking to Raymond on the phone when I knew we were going to be later than anticipated being reassured it was no problem, our table would still be available -through to the welcoming service and relaxed atmosphere. The meals ordered were TOP knotch, medium rare steak was on point, overall taste and presentation was outstanding. Well worth every dime spent, thank you so much for such a great experience. PS. The live entertainment selection was a nice treat, I believe his name was Jason Mercer - he was a bit of alright too ;)

Yvonne Hebden

There for New Years Eve for an enjoyable dinner.l at the new north location. Beef done perfectly. Lobster mac&cheese is crazy good. Service was excellent even on a busy night. Matt remembered our orders perfectly by heart.

Rima C

TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE! Gnosh couldn't get the order right and kept bringing my meal with bacon (had to send my food back three times). It was incredibly slow service and the food was sub par. I arrived at 7pm and didn't eat until 9:30. Not one apology was issued for their errors. I was also charged full price for my meal. This restaurant has lost 7 customers along with their family and friends.

Adam Court

My fiancee and I went there for our 1st date night since things started to reopen. We were very impressed with the food and service, and I'd definitely recommend the pickerel for anyone who's into fish.

Cara Rudanycz

Went to Gnosh during Londonlicious and regret spending money here. Though the atmosphere was great, the meal and service was subpar. It seemed we were forgotten about at the beginning, then to make up for it seemingly checked on too many times nearing the end. We felt rushed to leave.

Leah Davis-Purcell

Probably one of the worst dining experiences I’ve ever had and I don’t think I’ve ever written a Google review. Had a reservation for the set Valentine’s Day menu and after waiting 20 minutes to sit down, we waited another 15 minutes to be …

Everything was great here. I was very impressed by how professional the waiter was. He was attentive but knew the exact cues of when to come to the table. He recognized that we were chatting and wanted a long stay without having to ask. He also was very knowledgable and charming. It's really rare for wait staff to be this noticeably better. The food was exceptional. I had the pad thai and it had the right amount of spice. I don't like when places say their food will be spicy and it ends up being mild. I requested spicy and I got spicy, which is great. The cocktails are delicious too. Lastly, if I could eat the dessert every day for the rest of my life, I'd be in heaven. I got the lemon tart with raspberry sorbet. It was so delicate and fresh, every bite was like a first kiss. It really puts all other restaurants to shame for their dessert menus. I really did not want the flavour experience to end. I'll be coming back and telling friends. Thanks! :)

Service, atmosphere and over all experience were fantastic. Appetizers were delightful but a little on the small side. Dinner was fantastic. The Gnocchi was by far the best I have ever tasted. Intimate seating and lounge area is perfect for a relaxing outing in London.

My escargot arrived cold so I sent it back and waiter brought me another and tasted good. Salmon was delicious but lacking on vegetables.

Taryn Doherty

We had a wonderful dinner. Very cozy and a great atmosphere. The food was amazing. We did a mix of small plates and appetizers. The food is made from fresh and high quality ingredients. The cocktails were an awesome offering of mixology. The menu has a variety of great dishes. Most of all the service was amazing we felt like we were with friends and our server was perfect. We will be back, if you want a great casual fine dining experience check Gnosh out.

Blu Duby is my go to restaurant to for business lunches, evenings out and group events. I have never been disappointed with Blu Duby. The staff is amazing, the food is scrumptious and the wine list is extensive. I love taking people who have never been as they are always so impressed and I feel like a hero! I have a gluten sensitivity so it's difficult to find a good place to eat. At other restaurants, there are so few options, usually a salad or salmon. At Blu Duby, they have so many gluten free options it's hard for me to decide what I am going to order. Blu Duby also updates their menu frequently so there is usually some new gluten free option for me to try. I strongly recommend this restaurant.

Sam Cuttell

Enjoyed a lovely dinner to celebrate a birthday. We were a party of 6 and there were plenty of options for all tastes on the menu. We ordered a few appetizers for the table, Blu Duby Poutine and the Blu Duby Wedge. The Poutine was a big hit for the group. Everyone ordered a different main but the consensus was the Duo of Game was the best dish. Portion sizes were good and everyone left feeling full. The service was good and the restaurant has a nice atmosphere, although the lighting was a bit dim where we were seated. Overall very good experience, we will visit again!

Michelle Rothwell

We had a great dinner out in the North London location. Our server was wonderful, and helped us out with recommendations. We had lobster mac and cheese as an appetizer and we both enjoyed the lamb risotto dish. Absolutely recommend and will be back.

Service was very slow. We had reservations at 7pm and when we showed up there were no tables available. There was actually a wedding reception in the restaurant. The waiter finally got us a table setup. Then there were only 3 servers in the entire restaurant. It took forever to get our food ordered and served. When we finally got our food it was very delicious and satisfying. Our waitress was very nice and treated us to dessert because of how long it took to get our food. She was a sweetheart. We actually felt bad for her because she was really trying to get everything done and keep everyone happy. Honestly if it wasn't for her I would have given this place only 3 stars. But because of her and the food I kept it at 4 stars ⭐ .

Ryan Rood

It was a disappointing experience for our group last night. There were 10 of us who made reservations for 5:30 before going to see a show at 7:30. They were understaffed so the service was frankly terrible. We could tell our server was running around and doing her best. It took a long time to get our orders in, water was never refilled, there was no check in when food did come out to see if it was enjoyable. A few of us really enjoyed the food that we did receive: the Brie appetizer, the mussels, the lamb and mushroom risotto, and the beef short ribs were all delicious. Others ordered pasta dishes and pork dishes that weren’t even touched. However, we didn’t even get the opportunity to complain or order anything else since it took so long for the food to come out. We opted to move on to dessert and requested that our bills come out at the same time. 20 minutes later, we were informed that they were out of raspberry cheesecake. At this point we were already going to be late for the show so we asked if we could come back after for dessert and settled our bills. When we returned after the show, we asked if we could get the desserts to go and the server said that’s fine they just wouldn’t be as pretty. The manager came out to speak to us and this is the point where I was truly unimpressed. He made a lot of excuses and wasn’t overly apologetic. He shushed the server when she said she’d like to say something and that doesn’t go over well in my books. He offered us a $20 gift card and told us he couldn’t give us dessert because the chef wasn’t there to pack it up (the table directly behind was just served dessert by him). At this point it’s late, we’ve paid for items we haven’t received, and his attitude irked me so I told him that wasn’t satisfactory. He said “then you tell me what is”. Having worked in the hospitality industry and family who still do, a meal would have been comped for less. The combination of bad service, some bad dishes, missing dessert, being late, inconvenience of going back and not receiving what we paid for (and subsequently promised) should have been reason enough. Honestly, as the manager I would have gone to the back and packed up desserts myself if it meant avoiding a bad review. In the end, he gave us each $40 gift card (we had to ask for the ones for the ladies who couldn’t come back to the restaurant with us because of babysitters and what not). I Bottomline, I was really excited to go to gnosh and left disappointed in my experience. I will give it another chance and hopefully they can change my mind.

We went last nite 4 people. We all tried different appetizers and mains. All of our meals were excellent and the service and staff were excellent always around if you needed something. an all around great experience and we would definitely go again.

Alejandra Hurtado

Unfortunately I cannot give Blu Duby a positive review. We called ahead regarding their ability to accommodate allergies and were assured wrt my specific allergy that there would be no problem. Reservations were then made in advance of our large family celebration. Fast forward to the anticipated night, and I was then told by our server that there in fact was very little on the menu that they could accommodate. I do not understand why we would be misled like that. It was frustrating and embarrassing for me, and awkward for the others in my party.

Kay Reif

Always a great time at gNosh!! The food is fresh and smells amazing. I've tried their steak, pad thai, and wings. It all makes me happy to spend time and money. Servers were busy but friendly. Even the atmosphere is cozy and welcoming. Very streamlined and clean looking. Recommended for sure for any night of the week. Nice and close to Labatt Arena when going to a live show or hockey game. Make sure you have a reservation for the weekend as they get busy.

Steve Hebden

We had a reservation for 7:30. Received bottles of wine at 7:45pm. Ignored until 8:30pm. Tables were served before us. Oh and it’s my good friends bday. Complimentary shots and a baked Brie were served around 8:15pm. It is now 9:45pm no food. Terrible!!!

julie gray

Spectacular menu with a great downtown location. We requested a reservation online and the owner Joe replied back confirming it. This was unexpected but a great surprise nonetheless. What we didn't expect was that Joe was right up front serving tables and acting as a wonderful face to our first experience. One thing that stood out was the regulars. He greeted people by name more than once when they were walking through. The website says they will remember you and what I saw was nothing short of a reaffirmation. The food was excellent, my wife chose the Supreme of Chicken which was indeed supreme. I had the pumpkin risotto with duck breast which was equally outstanding. One note here is that they do cook duck breast properly which means pink. Dont let that stop you because it is delicious. We also tried their house old fashioned and new belgium fat tire which is on tap. Everything was great. Kudos to Joe and his team at Gnosh. We will be back soon.

Taylor Lampkin

Brought my girlfriend for her birthday. Were treated like second class citizens because we had no interest in ordering wine. Had to request another server (who did turn out great). Although the food was good, we won't return.

Melissa Price

My wife and I came into town from Toronto to pick up our puppy and stayed at hotel metro next door. Came in with very little expectations.... we were shocked at the quality/quantity of food and the drinks were great! Highly recommend the “that’s so Raymond” cocktail, mushroom/Brie tart and the duck risotto. If we are ever back in London again, we will definitely come back to visit! Great service too

Tony Lavacca

We had an excellent experience. The staff was very good and the food was outstanding. My wife and I will be back again. Keep up the good work.

Randy Oleksie

We brought our family here after a show at Budweiser Gardens and had a great experience. We made a reservation in advance and they seated us in a private room which was nice. The food was fantastic and the service was impeccable. We shared an antipasto and charcuterie board and a couple of orders of scallops to start. The charcuterie was tasty and there was a variety of antipasto. The cheese selection was okay but nothing special - just a Brie, a cheddar, and a blue. For the main, I had the duo of game which was duck breast and lamb shank with garlic mashed potatoes and seasonal vegetables. The sauces with each of the meats were particularly delicious. Skip the cheese plate if you decide to have dessert. They had regular coffee and espresso but no cappuccino.

reem gray

Always great food and service. First Covid dining experience. Ate on the patio and felt all necessary precautions were taken. An enjoyable time was had by all in our party.

Matt McKeogh

We went rather late on a week night but didn't have any issues getting in and a table. This place is really quite nice and beside the hotel we were staying so that was also super convenient. That said though, the food and service was great! The server was good and he wasn't always coming back to interrupt us to ask us how things are which I thoroughly appreciate given we were with friends and wanted to gab. The food was really good. I never get chicken at restaurants because it's often dry and over-done. This chicken supreme was just lovely and paired with a crunchy wild rice and root vegetables--it really hit the spot. The only complaint was the lighting was too dark for my standards as I couldn't really see my food but that didn't ruin the experience at all. I would happily return and eat and drink here!

Caprice Samuda

When we called for reservations, we were asked to show up at 5:45 to be sure to be out on time for the show at The Bud. We did. We ordered off the London Licious menu. I got the "classic cesaer" and my husband got the Gnosh salad. His was wonderful; mine was made from very tired and limp romaine, the "parm cheese" was powered and tasteless, and not a crouton on the plate. The lemon slice was dry and puckered, so had obviously been cut many hours before service. Both our mains were good - I had the boneless short ribs and he had the risotto with lamb shank. They were good - not outstanding. The desserts - horrible. My husband asked for the carrot cake to have the caramel on the side as he doesn't like caramel - I do. Caramel was all over and under his slice when it FINALLY arrived. I ordered the raspberry cheesecake. The only flavour the cheese cake had was salt. No fruit flavour, no sugar, no vanilla - tasted of only cream cheese and salt. I couldn't eat it. I even wrote a note and handed it to the Maitre D'. No comment from him. No apology. No offer of replacement. Apparently my opinion was simply an annoyance. Adding insult to injury, our bill was completely wrong, The terrible desserts had been added at extra cost. It was already less than 10 minutes before show time so we had to leave quickly. Our waitress was sweet and obviously had too many tables to deal with. We ended up paying at the bar and getting our own coats (no one there to retrieve them for us) and headed to our show. We weren't offered a reduction in the bill for the horrible dessert mess, and left feeling quite angry. Londonlicious is supposed to help restaurants get known by showing off their best to prospective new clients. Currently I see no reason to return this restaurant. Dinner on set menu with 1 glass of wine each (and we tipped the waitress - not her fault about food quality and timing) was over $120. Not money we can afford to waste. We thought we were treating ourselves to a nice evening out and an early anniversary gift. Huge waste of time and cash.

Digger McMahon

Had the Covid take out Valentine dinner. May be one of the best meals we’ve had, take out or in restaurant!! Best fine dining in London!

S P

Recently visited for my birthday. From the time I made the reservation which was personally responded to by Joe ( the owner), he and Ray made our experience unforgettable! The food and beverages were excellent and although we have been going for years, Joe and his staff always make each experience one to remember. Thank you so much for making my special birthday one for the books!

Tatianna Pacheco

We sat out on the patio to enjoy summer the music was jittery dance pop, but the service was very good. We ordered the Mediterranean risotto, which at first sight it was obviously a touch puffy hence overcooked and was served with a puddle of bland melted runny feta on top. Also on the menu there was mention of olives (type of not specified) Roma tomatoes and roasted red pepper. We did detect microscopic shards of red, possibly pepper, and couldn't locate the olive. So essentially a nice plate of seasoned overcooked arborio rice that I would have shared my thoughts on to either server or owner, neither of which checked in on us after the appetizers -that we really enjoyed- except to top up our waters and settle the bill. The other main dish- a fish plate- was excellent, done very well, tasty, with nice seasonal sides.

Linda Ortiz

A fabulous restaurant with a menu full of variety for all. We had a large group (21) in town and enjoyed our dining experience in their private room. Everyone loved their meal. Joe was attentive and ensured that all needs were met. Thank you Joe and all Gnosh staff for making our night memorable. We will be back!

Jeff Beam

Very disappointing - we made a reservation a week in advance and got seated at the bar. Then we were served by the bartender who was obviously very busy. The restaurant seems better than that. To top it off, my wife got sick after eating the scallop/shrimp dish. We won't be going back.

Adrian Douglas

Been twice now since they opened; food both times wasn't bad, but it wasn't "remarkable dining". Service was decent but wasn't "remarkable dining". They seem to be putting in the effort and have enough staff but there's just some things missing. Many others in our group were very happy with their meals, but a few felt the same way I did; that it was okay. Meal price was typical or even on the lower side of comparable restaurants. I think they make as much larger margin on their drink menu. How ever my biggest complain is the noise. It is loud and conversation feels more like what you would have at a club, you have to speak loud and often same "I'm sorry, could you repeat that." Hang some sound damping materials on the ceiling and walls and I would move it up to 4 stars. I'd go again, but it wouldn't be my first choice.

Brian Pelletier

We love this place. Gluten free options across the menu and care is taken to not cross contaminate! Food is fantastic. Atmosphere is nice: a good mix between classy and casual. Prices are reasonable. We have been back several times. Hotel Metro upstairs is also quite nice.

Michael Selvaraj

I was very extremely dissatisfied & disappointed with the lack lustre food that was severed. The worst offence has to be the fact that they are called a cocktail bar but have no idea how to make a Old Fashioned properly. I am surprised as the reviews are rated high not worth the prices they charge for the quality of the food. More over this was a first we ordered appetizers & drinks to start…the appetizers came before the two drinks!? Seriously come on how can you call you self upscale dining when you can’t get that right?

David Zilkey

The atmosphere and food is always top notch - had the fettuccine special of the day recently which was fantastic. A couple of times, the service has been a bit slow when the restaurant wasn't overly busy, however you don't go to Blu Duby for a quick in-and-out meal, it really is a place to go for good conversation and food - to enjoy the experience. A great restaurant in London!

Derek cook

Had the pad thai with chicken and sticky asian chicken wings. The pad thai was unique with broad noodles - so flavourful and delicious. I highly recommend it. The wings were yummy as well.

Brenda Williams

Pretty disappointing. It started off great, great appetizers and wine but then it seemed like our server forgot we existed. We had to get up and ask for water 3 times. We had to wait at least 15 minutes for our server to take our plate away after we had finished eating, then another 15 minutes just to get a desert menu and then ANOTHER 10-15 minutes to order desert. Yet again we were left waiting after desert so I had to ask another server for our bill. My parents came to town for my birthday from Ottawa so I wanted to take them to what i thought was the best. Too bad. When you pay $300 for 4 people, you expect exceptional service, not 3 servers standing behind the bar laughing. And to top it all off, there were 4 people screaming and being so obnoxious at the bar. I wouldn't recommend the risotto with lamb, it is too heavy. The steak was excellent.

London Southwest

Went there for the second time a couple of months ago and I loved it! I had the steak and I can easily compare that to anything you can find at The Keg. The wine we had was exceptional along with the company, it was Casey Haas' recommendation to try it, and I would gladly go again. Great food.

Richy Noronha

Good food and service. Overall quite pleasant. Humble owner! (We think it was the tall guy/server/bartender/host..he wore many hats tonight and we appreciate it!)

Keith Routliffe

My friends and I celebrated my birthday with cocktails which were all absolutely delicious!!! I ordered the pesto mussels and they came looking better than I imagined. We also were addicted to their maple butter they served with the complimentary bread. Looking forward to my Christmas party here!

Georgian Chevrolet

Recently I adopted a big dog into my family. Gnosh allowed her on their patio and she has a bit of a fear of men (we are working on it :)). Gnosh was extremely accommodating and patient and made sure to provide Kiki with water, despite her audible reaction to the very tall waiter. Not only that, but the fish tacos were more than fantastic! We were met with smiles and great food! Thank you to Gnosh!

We were visiting from Barrie Ontario and came to stay at Hotel Metro which is right above the Blu Duby. We met our friends at the Budweiser Gardens for a concert and this restaurant is literally 30 steps away from the venue. We ate at the Blu Duby one day and were served by Scott. The food was hot and fast. My husband had the Canadian Burger and fries which were crunchy and good enough he wouldn't let me steal many. I have the pasta of the day which was shrimp and mussels. Amazing. We had such a great experience that we came back with our friends for dinner. Everyone had a great time and the after concert crowd was a lot of fun. The bar is large and happening at night. They had no problem serving us dinner after 10:30 pm. Our server was funny and able to recommend wine and French Martini's (We may have had a few too many they were so good!)All in all would highly recommend this place.

Barb Stevenson

Went in this evening for a date night with the hubby. First time trying Gnosh. Service was excellent and food was delicious. Had the lobster Mac and cheese and wings to start. The chicken and short ribs for dinner. Will definitely be back.

Jaime Merrithew

We made a reservation for Valentine's Day and did not have to wait a moment when we arrived. Our table was intimate, near the back. The food was phenomenal. Beef tenderloin cooked exactly the way I asked... amazing deserts with portions so large I couldn't finish it. The price was fair and the food well above par. Joe was attentive and thoughtful as were he rest of the staff. We will be returning very soon!

Ash D

Always a really nice dining experience. The staff are super friendly and the food is delicious. It's very conveniently located and for the quality and quantity of food it's well priced. I always love coming here when I want a guarantee of great food that everyone can enjoy. They are also great with allergies. Very respectful of and confident when dealing with food restrictions A favourite in the city!

Jason Baptista

We were there as part of a large group - around 25-30 people, which may have played a large part in my experience of the food. Since we were a large party, we ordered off a pre-fixe menu. Being vegan, the only option for me was a pasta dish. When it arrived, the pasta I found was overcooked and the dish a little mediocre. Others who ordered the same dish said the same. The service was also a little hit or miss. It might have been the large party that threw the restaurant off and it could be better in other circumstances. However, with such a variety of restaurants in the downtown area, I don't know if I would be back here in a hurry.

V John Beaudoin

I have been to the Blu Duby twice in the past few months and both experiences have been extremely poor. The first time I had dinner with a friend during a slow weekday night. There were fewer than 4 tables active at the restaurant, however our dinner took almost TWO hours because of extremely slow service. Our waiter would often stop to watch the game on TV even though we were clearly waiting for service. When he brought our bills over, he took so long to come back to the table (over 10 minutes) another waiter took pity on us and he brought over the machine. The second time, we came in as a birthday group of 6. The service again was extremely slow and it took a full hour from ordering food to receiving it. Again, this was not a very busy day. The food was also not very good, the majority of us ordered pasta bowls and when they showed up there was more onion than pasta. I ordered a $9 appetizer of scallops and there were only TWO on the plate!! I ordered lamb main and found it undercooked. Additionally, when one of us asked for a new drink as hers showed up bitter and spicy instead of 'pineapple' tasting as the menu described, the waiter brought back the drink made in the same glass. I would not recommend Blu Duby.

Nadia Billett

Delicious cuisine and beautiful restaurant! Will definitely be back. :)

Brooke Sveinbjornson

Could not have been happier with our experience. My wife and I went for our final date night before the baby arrives. Our Waitress Renee was great, her description of the days special (Fettuccine alfredo with chicken, sauteed mushrooms, red pepper...) actually convinced me away from my original choice of Steak and Frites and it surpassed my expectations. Renee had a good sense of humour as well presenting Caitlin's Perrier as if it were a fine wine. The atmosphere was relaxed and festive, the food delicious and the service outstanding. I am not one to write reviews but I feel compelled to advise everyone looking for a night out to taste what the Blu Duby is cooking. Also, not sure how they make the bread that comes with the Caesar Salad but that alone will bring me back again and again. Thank you Blu Duby and Renee for a wonderful dining experience. We will be back, Jordan and Caitlin

Elliot Adderley

After 15 months of not being out as a family we went to gnosh to celebrate our missed birthdays, the food was outstanding and the atmosphere was perfect! The staff is delightful and all protocols are follow. Gnosh is a stable of London and my family is glad to be back

Jennifer Doucette

Food was delicious ???? So wish I could give 5 stars, however due to the long wait & the service being poor. They were overbooked due to a party of 40 showing up later then reserved & like most recovering from the shut downs due to covid-19, understaffed for the unexpected to happen. The owner was great & due to our long wait brought us 2 free appetizers and free shots at the end of our evening.

Matt Stewart

Great food, great service, great value! Went in for dinner last night with a few girlfriends to check out their Londonlicious menu. Right from the start our waiter, Ray, was super attentive even making drink recommendations to my friends …

Kimberly Rosal

I came up from Hamilton to see the Arkells at Bud Gardens and reserved at this place since they had good reviews and we're close by. The guy taking my reservation was super friendly, said they'd bring out a piece of cake for dessert since it was also my girlfriends birthday, etc. Figured I was in good hands. The restaurant was pretty busy likely because of the show. We had about an hour and figured that would be plenty of time to eat and head over. Unfortunately once we were seated it took another 30 minutes for anyone to come and take our order. Despite the size of the restaurant and how busy it was, I could only see 3 people serving. We quickly decided against appetizers and went straight to mains. Thankfully they came out quickly enough. I ordered the pumpkin and goat cheese risotto which was incredibly bland. The servers were all over the place - as soon as one set our meal down, another came by to ask how it was tasting before we had even had a chance to take a bite. We decided to just cut our losses, skip cake and pay as we ate since we used up most of the time we alotted for dinner waiting to be served. After I paid, another server ran up to ask if I needed the machine. The staff was friendly and apologetic, but it blows my mind to have so few people working with a concert right next door. Pretty lousy birthday dinner experience all around. The show was great though!

L. Rogers

My husband and I went for a late meal. The Host greeted us with flare and our waiter was the owner. Absolutely delicious food, good portions and excellent value. When the boss rolls up his sleeves to work, everyone benefits!

Jackie Long

Went there for Londonlicious and while I can understand that during this time service might be a bit slower due to how busy it is, our experience was absolutely unacceptable! We sat for an hour before we even saw any food while people around us were being served their mains (and they came after us). We never saw our server. And when our food did show up, it was our main (appetizers just never showed up!!). By the time we finally got our appetizers, our mains came immediately and were cold (presumably the same ones they tried to bring out 20 min prior). We were pretty ticked, so we asked for our desserts to go. We ended up paying before receiving our desserts, which not shockingly, never showed up like our appetizers >.> We were comped our 2 irish coffees but we will never dine here again. Our server didn't even seem to care and you could tell the couples next to us weren't too impressed either. It is disappointing, because the food isn't bad. Just no organization, poor customer service. 100$ date night completely wasted... I go to Londonlicious every year and have tried many restaurants in London. Just because there is an event, does not make this excusable. We have never had service this terrible, regardless of how busy the restaurant is.

Katelyn Lococo

Best table service I’ve experienced in a long time!! Cocktails were superb, lobster mac & cheese could use a little more flavour but the duck pizza was amazing. Overall a great spot to eat for date night or a special occasion!
