Had Valentine’s Day dinner menu and it was perfect. Everything was well packaged and it also came with roses ???? Thank you Loondoks for the lovely dinner.
Took my Vegan girlfriend here, was great to be able to find a place that can accommodate both of us. Started with the vegan bruschetta (they gave me feta on the side). Then I had the beef tenderloin, she has the vegan bowl. Food was fantastic! Above all, it's great to be able to find a rooftop patio that's not blasting music and sports hooligans, I could actually hear my girlfriend talk! Definitely going back.
Second time at this restaurant today. The food and service are consistently good.
Went here with friends for the first time and atmosphere and service were incredible! Not to mention the amazing food. I had the venison and it was easily the best venison I've ever had and wife loved the beet salad and mac and cheese. Would highly recommend this place.
So happy our favourite local restaurant is open again. Great to see that the staff are back and that the quality of the food and the atmosphere have not suffered during the COVID shutdown of their restaurant. We have been there twice over the last ten days and it remains our number one spot.
the decor is a little reminiscent of shopping at Northern Reflections when you were 12 in the 80's but the food was fantastic and the service was as well. Thank you Effie for and eff'in good night!
Not a great experience
Really terrific food. Great dining environment. Was a nice break from usual lunch stops.
Nice place, and the food is good. For the price though, I'd expect a slightly better service - if you're paying $150+/couple, the server shouldn't forget your drink (and not noticing, despite serving you food), and cutlery shouldn't be presented rolled up like they do at Swiss Chalet.
Dine in
Terrific lunch today on the rooftop! Service was fantastic and the food is terrific. It's a great spot up there. I recommend it for lunch, and for just hanging out with a friend watching suburbia buzz around below you. I will be back in the next couple weeks for dinner up there... Can't wait.
Fantastic. Food was incredibly tasty and we'll plated. You can taste the thought and pride of craft that goes into preparing the meal. Staff was very attentive and friendly. Great atmosphere.
Staff are friendly, food is very good all made fresh in house. If in the area go try it you will thank me for it. Prices are fair and the atmosphere is warming
Amazing food.....on a lovely terrace setting....Loondocks should be chosen as your next dining experience! Thank you Amy & Britney for being so accommodating and for service extraordinaire. We so very much enjoyed our evening!
Having a phenomenal food coma here. Complements to the chef and wait staff. Will definitely be back.
Excellent food & service! I thoroughly enjoyed my dinner with a friend yesterday evening. The Pacific Halibut was cooked to perfection and everything was delicious. My friend has Celiac and I asked if they had gluten-free bread, and they did and brought us some without any extra charge. We lingered for a long time as the only people left in the restaurant and no one ever made us feel pressured to leave. The staff was attentive and checked on us just the right amount of times.
Always enjoy this place. Sad to see the lack of tables these days but the food is stellar.
Service was good. The food was ok and nothing unique...
Excellent food and service. We were there for a celebration and the was given complimentary sparkling wine to start our meals. …
Great food friendly staff. Nice ambience. Definitely recommend it.
Third time I go, third time I love it!
It was overpriced for what was actually served to us. Boring menu.
Food perfect especially blackend cod. Had great service. Muskoka Lager incredible!! Wish had more menu items.
Muskoka casual elegance....yes it is possible. And gourmet food!! You have to eat here!
The best Turbot or Halibut dishes
I visited Loondocks for the first time today with my mom, seated on the rooftop patio. Nice atmosphere, amazing staff and excellent food. We will definitely be back.
Always a great option for families and individuals. The staff members are friendly and helpful with the menu. The Muscovy Duck breast was delicious. Highly recommend this place!
We enjoyed the Outdoor Patio at ground level this summer... really good food and drink. Great atmosphere and service was fantastic.
We were in the area and we found this place on trip advisor. It is truly a great place. The food is fantastic and the service is super fast. I rarely give 5 stars for a place and this is one of the few.
Amazing food!
Amazing little spot! Loved the food and the service was great. You should definitely go to their rooftop patio it's the cutest
Great food and service. One of the best in town!
Delicious food, and such friendly service,love the tarrace settings.Thank you
Fantastic place! I've been here 3 times so far, trying different menu items, and it's been fantastic each time. Not only is the food good, but staff had been superb, and there are two patios; outside on ground, as well as rooftop. Update: went for our first weekend brunch, and definitely recommend it. The best brunch you'll find in the city. Once again, the staff are the best, so friendly. Love this place!
Not great atmosphere, limited menu, pricey for the area and atmisphere. Nice waiter.
First visit was delicious. Venison was cooked to perfection and the seared scallops. Recommended highly.
Excellent packaging and delivery presentation during Covid. Delicious food .
Everything on this menu is made from fresh ingredients. The chefs create fantastic unique dishes. The staff take care of you like family. Food come hot and fresh. Burlington does not have a better fine dinning experience.
Food is top notch!
It was a great outing and a fantastic menu
Loon Docks never disappoints! They are handling Covid restrictions really well. Customers are very distanced from each other and all protocols are being followed rigorously. The food always exceeds expectations and the service is delightful. The ambiance is relaxing and I really appreciate that the music is not loud, it's easy to talk to the people you're with. I always leave feeling recharged and relaxed. It's a special experience. Best restaurant in Halton!
A very comfortable dining experience. The food was outstanding, and the service very good. Pandemic protocols were very good and adhered to. Highly recommend
It is amazing Resturant, Geat Food, Friendly Staff, Awesome Design. Give it try...you would not regret
Excellent experience! The owner served us personally with attentive and pleasant suggestions. Cozy and decorated beautifully for the holidays! Happy to shop local!
Fantastic rooftop patio, great service and amazing food. Got the steak cooked to perfection, wife loved her pork.
Wonderful food, and great service. This restaurant may be underestimated due to the location, but I highly recommend trying Loondocks, you won’t be disappointed.
Recommend the trout and cod menu items
Best beef tenderloin I have ever had. Beautiful Shiraz to go with. Cookies and Cream Cheesecake was life changing. Very affordable fine dining, better pricing than similar spots in Toronto. I am surprised this place is not packed. Just a matter of time as I guess they are pretty new to the area. Highly recommended.
Loondocks is a gem of a restaurant. We had the most fantastic meal. Everything came out piping hot and fresh as can be. Halibut cakes... Steak..lamb chops and dessert all on point.
oh my gosh you have to visit!! The food was delicious, cocktails were so yummy and the service was top notch. We're definitely going to be visiting again. Loved it
Fantastic local restaurant. My first experience with Loondocks was last year and I've been going back ever …
Great atmosphere, great food and staff
Best kept secret in town! Fabulous food and excellent customer service!
Food delicious, place cozy.
Wonderful experience! Very kind staff , amazing food ! Definitely I’ll come back again !
Excellent dining experience. Courteous, friendly staff. Food well prepared, generous portions, good flavour combinations.
Great staff, food, and atmosphere.
We went for Mother’s Day Brunch in person in 2019. Promptly seated on time. Complimentary mimosa for the Mrs. and had kids menu items that were perfect portions. The meals were great and Efie was attentive, engaging and most made sure we were happy with every aspect of our dining experience. Well done Loondocks. We then did curb side brunch pick up for 2020 Mother’s Day. A great selection of cheese and charcuterie, the mimosa mix was perfect and the scones were a hit. To top it off the good folks at Loondocks even had the option of flowers. Well done Kevin and team!
Excellent dining experience, great value, great service. Venison tenderloin is amazing. Love the half-priced wine bottles on Sundays. Will be here often.
A very cozy place. Excellent service. Food was a little underwhelming. Beet salad was good. Halibut cakes had very little flavor. Had the venison and it was cooked well but under seasoned. This place has promise.
I liked it. Nothing spectacular though.
Very bad service, I waited somebody to take my order for more than 15 mints, then i left.
Very attractive decor, and good food. Ample parking, convenient location...I'll go back!
If your looking for the best patio for a evening with friends this is the place. Rooftop patio is where I will be. Great food, service and their original cocktail menu is beyond 5 star.
Amazing food and service. The atmosphere was great and the roof top patio was breath taking. Went there for brunch and dinner and my experiences were consistent with one another, simply perfect. Had the duck poutine, halibut and Angus burger, which were all something I would highly recommend and will definitely get again.
Had a good time socially distancing on the rooftop patio. Nicely laid out with space between tables. String lights and comfy couches are a nice touch, as are the fresh herbs around the rooftop. Had the artic char and it was awesome! Would return for sure.
Loondocks provides one of the best lockdown takeaway food experiences we've had. They've clearly put a lot of thought into it, they included specific reheating instructions for each item and everything tasted as good as it does when you're in the restaurant. They also surprised us by providing the same delicious fresh-baked bread and honey butter as a starter. Nothing beats a good meal at a favourite restaurant, but this was a very well done next-best-thing until things open up again.
Our server was dynamite, and the menu was really interesting. I could have enjoyed every option! Good distancing between tables for covid.
Delicious food and Great ambiance.
Had to wait 45 minutes for an appetizer and we were only the 2nd table on a Saturday, over priced, mediocre food. Skip it.
Wonderful Muskoka-themed restaurant,makes a great extension of their Port Carling location with a much shorter drive! Here is the Venison Tenderloin and Creme Brulee ????
Food was excellent, the service could have been more attentive. Will return for sure. Also, have one of their house made sodas!
Recently moved to Oakville and have already visited this restaurant multiple times. Everything on the menu is delicious, the roof top patio gives a wonderful view of the sunset, and the staff are extremely friendly and welcoming. I look forward to coming here multiple more times even if it’s just for a drink.
I had heard so much about this place and how the food was amazing. I must say this place did not disappoint. The food was amazing. We had the artic char and the halibut. The appetizers was the beets and goat cheese salad.. wow. I wanted to try more but the diet won't allow it. I guess i have to come back. I also feel that the staff is just as important as the food . We we're wil greeted and our server was very accommodating.. very friendly and made our stay welcoming... well done.
Great service and really interesting menu a touch on the pricey side. I love red wine and the selection is wonderful. There is a bar / restaurant with nice ambiance and a lovely bartender named Courtney. I will certainly be back many times. Staff are professional and friendly
Great food, service and atmosphere. Brittany was our server...she was amazing...full knowledge of offerings and a great smile to go with it. Definitely will recommend and certainly return in the future!
Great place to dine. Love the atmosphere and the food
In July, my husband and I had our wedding dinner on the rooftop patio at Loondocks. Our wedding was originally planned for April but with Covid everything turned upside down. Throughout all the changes due to Covid, Kevin and the team at Loondocks were very flexible in ensuring we had the perfect wedding dinner. We cannot say enough good things about Kevin and the team at Loondocks. Everything was perfect and the food was AMAZING! We highly recommend eating at Loondocks whether it be for an occasion or just a night out! We will definitely be making the trip from Toronto to eat again at Loondocks!!
Pricey for what you get
The food was great! But the portion of the salad is really small. They open the patios upstairs but we were not able to open the umbrella because it was quite windy. As a result, we had to eat in the sun, which was not very comfortable.I …
Friendly quick service. Food is not over the top but well executed. Decent craft beer on tap. Really does focus on Muskoka inspired dishes like venison, duck, and variety of fish/seafood.
Amazing food and the service is great. Beautiful muskoka themed. Pictures of the Artic char, beef Wellington, and duck confit poutine
Delicious high quality takeout. Very impressed with the quality. Will be ordering again and coming in person when things open back up again!
It was an awesome supper, start to finish. Food was delicious and our server (Cindy) was excellent!!
We had a company dinner here recently and thoroughly enjoyed it. It's a nice, low key place to have a good meal. There's a small bar with a good draft selection and a handful of decent bourbons, something I usually struggle to find in Canada. The char fish entree was quite good, others had filet mignon that was decent as well. We will be back after this great experience.
All the products were fresh and the dishes had the warmth of home-made food. The chefs takes great care in selecting the best quality ingredients. Great service and the restaurant also caters for all tastes by providing a large selection of the best wines of the region.
excellent
Great place to have dinner in or outside. Love having fantastic food with friends.
Great food and friendly staff. They are a fine dining restaurant, but I didn't find them overly expensive. I'd definitely go back again. ***updated - Curbside pickup*** I decided to do a Curbside pickup and arrived 10 minutes early to pick up my food. It was not ready, which is a good thing as they have it fresh and hot the time that you are supposed to arrive. The food was nicely prepared and packaged up.
Unfortunate event took place tonight. Even after confirming with server multiple times I was served pork! I do not eat pork . & I ended up paying full bill. Completely insensitive server & chef. No diversity or inclusion at this restaurant. Not sure if I was targeted due to my colour or belief . What a nightmare!!! After I said I will post about this incident , manager Brittany came up to address the concern & server or chef were no where to be found. I paid $50 for food I could not eat. Horrible experience.
Great new addition to the Burlington scene! Looks like the Muskoka location closed and reopened here. Really good Canadian food delivered in a modern atmosphere. Could do with additional décor, only one deer antler chandelier? Tsk tsk... Wife and I had the 5 course prix fixe menu for Valentine's Day, came served with a neat sorbet intermezzo, and they were happy to accommodate with a gluten-free dessert (flourless chocolate cake!)
Vegan menu too! Excellent food! Beautiful Roof Top patio!
Love going here, always great food and love the new rooftop patio!! I can't wait to go back for more soon!!
Very nice place. Amazing food, portions are big and price pretty fair. Service was outstanding. 100% recommended.
Awesome food..great service We were in a party of 17 on the rooftop patio..quite lovely
Great new place. Great tasting food. Super happy and attentive staff. Funny Manager who made us feel at home. All around great. I cannot wait for the roof top patio to open but I think we will be back before that just to try some more food. Amazing!
Food delicious. Staff pleasant and attentive. Restaurant ambiance very nice. Love the music playing in the background do you can still have a conversation.
Amazing food and wonderful service
Really yummy food, very helpful staff. My drink was a tad strong for my liking (not their fault, I didn't really know what I was ordering and it was just too boozy tasting for my liking) and so they adjusted it and offered to even bring me extra ginger ale to water it down as I went. So nice! Will be back.
Second time dining here. Great food. Perfect service. Excellent value. It's nice to have this quality of restaurant in the area. If you're looking for a terrific, local dining experience, this is it. No, it's not the same as the restaurant it replaces - thankfully! If you're looking for mediocre, inexpensive fare, go elsewhere.
A fabulous restaurant!!!! We have been to Loondocks several times and have always enjoyed the experience. Awesome food, with incredible variety, and several unique menu items. A great night out for those looking for an amazing dinner with casual Muskoka vibes!!
Stellar service, atmosphere, and delicious food. Highly recommend.
A must try!
Such a beautiful dinner! Wonderful service- so many appetizing menu items, it's hard to choose
Stopped for a lunch date with my husband. The food is incredible! Definitely 5 star quality and the service is amazing. Highly recommend warm goat cheese and beet salad, with SHRIMP! Crab cakes and the veggie burger too!
Very 6 restaurant. Service was superb.
Great service. The smoked olf fashion and gnocchi were exceptional!
It was good but the portions are ridiculously small for the high price
Great Food. Great Service!
Delicious salads, halibut cakes and desserts. Check them out
Fantastic, try it!
Elegant, tasteful décor. Music was awesome. Fresh, hand made sodas with suggested spirit option was a lovely touch. The Halibut Cakes and The Duck Confit Poutine were amazing and great for sharing. The Angus Burger was probably one of the best burgers I’ve ever had. Hostess and server were delightful.
Went in expecting it to be special. Very disappointed. It was not bad just nothing special.
Very pleasant restaurant with alot of fine foods. Staff is incredible
Some of the best food I've ever had
This restaurant mistreated my party of 4 black customers. We booked ahead and on arrival at 5pm, we were taken to the upstairs patio. At some point after serving us with drinks, we were asked to lift our drinks up so the the server could …
The food is excellent and you can tell it's all made fresh.
Ordered take away for our anniversary dinner because of COVID-19 restrictions. Our meals far exceeded expectations. All of our food, including appetizers, main course and dessert were excellent and, surprisingly well presented in the take away packages. Instructions on how to best re-warm each of the meals were also included to ensure the best possible results.
First time to Boondocks. Best food we've had in Burlington. Excellent tasting food and presentation and wonderful service. We will be back again soon.
Gnocchi was some of the best food ever, Chad and Raimey were incredibly friendly, and the Summerweiss was fantastic. I don't know what Reuben (the chef) makes, but he definitely needs a raise!
Travelling from up north we decided to hit here for dinner. Great service. Menu was will balanced for all and the wine list had good price point. Yes definitely going back.
Had a lovely lunch on the rooftop patio today at Loondocks. First time we have been here and it was awesome. Tried the halibut cakes which were so tasty and the presentation of the food was lovely. Our server, Thomas was very friendly and attentive. Will definitely be back again.
Such a small portion for a high price! I had never seen such a thing all my life!!!!
Nice place but disappointed we couldn't get the seating we wanted. We are out of town celebrating kids graduation but despite restaurant being empty they wouldn't seat us upstairs as we requested, ended up at a table near entry points and washrooms despite reserving ahead :( I tried hard to get a seating we wanted, the hostes wouldn't budge : ( . I didn't want to embarras the kids by pushing too hard for a nicer spot. The vegan salad and bowl were way to oily but the rest of the party loved their choices . Rosemary bread was good. Another thing to note is that restaurant is placed in a shopping plaza.
The food it very good and the price is very reasonable for they amount of food you get and how good the food is.
The food and the presentation was excellent. We also had it very good service. However I find that for 4 four ounce glass of red wine totalling $68 was a bit expensive.I will probably return but not too often.
We’ve past by this restaurant a few times and decided to try it out last night as they were participating in Taste of Burlington. The food was delicious and the staff was very friendly! We will definitely be going back.
Absolutely everything we ordered was delicious. You can’t make a wrong choice on the menu. It’s pricier than some other casual fine dining establishments but It is well worth it!
This place is an absolute dream. Before going inside, I definitely thought this place would have middle of the road pasta and country style dishes just based off the name, Loondocks. This is definitely a special occasion type establishment. I ate here last night for dinner with my SO and we had the entire rooftop patio to ourselves. We have seen it get pretty busy here during the evenings most nights, but Wednesday nights are wonderfully quiet. The menu presented was impeccable and refined; and for very competitive prices. The Keg would charge more, and serve lower quality food. I love how they kept the menu short, so you know the quality of what they selected would be that much better. We ordered the duck wellington and beef tenderloin, which were both cooked to perfection and presented beautifully. The flavours were absolutely amazing, with good portion sizes (not too big, not too little like at gourmet places!) The waitstaff were kind and courteous, and we couldn't have asked for a better night out. I cannot sing this place enough praise. Will definitely be returning to Loondocks!

Service
The food was amazing
Very nice good was delishisous great service
Loved this place! On the upfront one of the few restaurants which considers vegans/vegeterians and has a seperate menu for vegetarians. While booking a table online it allows you to choose outdoor or indoor seating, which is great. We had booked our table before hand and we got to experience the rooftop patio. The restaurant has good indoor seating, patio seating on the ground floor and roof top patio seating too. We ordered bell pepper flat bread, halibut cakes for starters. For the main course we ordered craft veggie burger and vegan croquettes. For dessert we ordered the creme brulee. Everything was absolutely delicious and the served without delay. Our server, Brittany was nice and friendly, offered great, quick service and also gave us recommendations (if we needed any). Not to mention she made a great cocktail for me. I would totally visit this place again and would recommend it to others.
Brie starter was amazing !! Mains ... rack of lamb And shrimp risotto perfect !!
Went there this evening with my wife . Shared six appetizers and two deserts. Food had both its shining moments and okay ones . Heirloom beets and goat cheese salad , simple and delicious. Bruchetta and halibut cakes where both okay. Not bad . Not amazing. Confit duck poutine was a little lack luster. Venison sliders where pretty good, a little to much bread for me and my wife. Desserts where fabulous . Had the flourless chocolate cake and the French toast creme brulé. Limited menu and not a ideal place to bring kids. Expanding the menu or changing it often would be a nice thing to see. All in all its definitely worth checking out, just doesn't hit the punch line of making me want to rush back. I'd definitely check it out again.
Incredible food and drinks. Service is excellent! Can’t wait for the rooftop patio to open!
We had our Christmas party at Loondocks on Saturday evening. The food was amazing and our waiters Maya and Leslie were professional and went above and beyond! thank you, we will definitely be back!
We had a great time at Loondocks. Terrific staff, menu and atmosphere.
Excellent food and drinks. And the staff were attentive, but not too frequent which I appreciated. Our first visit and it was the perfect rooftop patio experience to kick off my summer.
Our first time to this location, we have been to the Port Carling location many times, and it did not disappoint! The service was great and the food even better! We will be back with friends for sure!
Nice ambiance. Great service. For the price - food flavour was slightly lacking. Probably won't go back. There are more tasty options elsewhere.
(Translated) Great filet mignon. (Original) Great filet mignon.
My favorite
What a great dining experience. The chef is on point. Loved everything we ate.
We regularly patronize this place, it never disappoints. Another amazing experience in dining tonight !! If you haven't been here before, you need to make a point of it.
Food was great.
Best beet salad
Food was delicious and the service was great.
Terrific food and great service. Would definitely go back. Love the patio.
Wonderful atmosphere, excellent service. Delightful menu with superior tasting offerings from appetizers, tapas choices for small appetite to delicious and artfully presented main courses. Love the wine list.
Good food . Good presentation. Like this restaurant.
Delicious! Been a few times to enjoy their 5-course menu offering for special occasions. Now my husband and I are making up reasons to head back. Our top pick is the gnocchi but whatever you choose is sure to tick all the boxes.
Dinner
Went yesterday for lunch, it was amazing. Everything was great, the service and the food was amazing. Its a great family run restaurant. I would recommend this restaurant to everybody.
Excellent service. Food was delicious.
Staff is so polite
Had a very good dinner there yesterday. Our server Thomas was very friendly and helpful. ambiance and food both were good
Cozy, warm restaurant with incredible food! This place has quickly become a favorite for date night with my husband. We've had Leslie serve us the last 2 visits and she's great! Attentive and professional service. We will definitely be back and hope to have her as our server again!
Amazing food!
Dinner was awesome
My husband and I spent our anniversary here and we had a great time. They have awesome staff specially "Megan" was full of energy and hospitality and she made our night so special. Definately come back.
Tried Loondocks because of the Taste of Burlington tonight. Food was fresh and delicious. Portions were a good size. Staff were friendly but not overbearing. Would definitely go back to try more on the menu!
Nice place for a lunch, maybe a little bit on the expensive side but good overall
Amazing first experience. Our waitress (Effie) was incredible. Food delicious
The food and service were fantastic. Can't wait to go again!
I had a great experience at loondocks by far the best place in Burlington, Everything was perfect I would 100% recommend loondocks as a great night out
Delicious food. Great Staff.
Had a great evening on the rooftop patio at Loondocks! Our server, Effie, suggested mojitos with fresh mint from the garden beside us and they did not disappoint! Food was amazing and the ambience on their rooftop patio is very relaxing :) Will definitely return to this gem in Burlington!
Went here for cocktails and was NOT disappointed. The 2 bartenders really know what they are doing. Highly trained and very friendly. The roof top terrace is lovely. We sipped our cocktails and watched the sunset. Perfect evening. Highly recommend.
The food is to die for! I am still trying to find something I don’t like about the menu but haven’t found it yet. For fine dining the price is very reasonable and the portions are good as well. If you eat the gnocchi beware you may not eat anything else. And the deserts are incredible. Even if you are stuffed you’ll gladly eat whatever you order off the desert menu. So far every time I go back I eat something different and am continually impressed. Literally this is the top place for good food I go, hands down!!
Excellent food. Great service.
The food and drinks are amazing! I would highly recommend this place. My husband and I got the filet mignon, it was cooked to perfection. The side dishes were also really yummy. …
Exceptional food, creative cocktails, rooftop patio had a very relaxing ambiance. Mixologist was extremely knowledgeable and fun, servers were very friendly and professional. We had a fabulous evening, not a single improvement to be made.
My husband and I had our anniversary dinner there last night. The food and the service were incredible and we were spoiled with complementary glasses of Prosecco to help us celebrate. Leslie, our server, was a really sweetheart and was very attentive. We were greeted by a lovely hostess that made us feel welcome immediately. It was our first time there - but definitely not our last!
