2 weeks agoThe food and service here was top notch. Really enjoyed the lamb. The sour dough bread didn't look like much, but had an amazing chewy texture. Surprisingly good! We inhaled the scallops, they were so fresh. The hazelnut chocolate cake was enough for two people and was a great way to finish off the meal. To top it off, the server explicitly mentioned that they pay their servers a living wage and the bill was the final bill which was really refreshing!

a week agoYummy food and drinks, good service. Presentation of food was nice, and waiters kindly introduced each dish. Taste was 10/10 perfect. Table seating was a bit awkward, our 5th person was seated at the end of a four person table arrangement - had booked in advance as well.

in the last weekRecommended by the concierge at our hotel and wow, he was not wrong! Our server made us feel immediately welcome, we loved the amuse bouche and the drinks selection. The menu was reassuringly short, with some really creative takes on classic dishes. The burger was insane. The fish was amazing (the gnocchi!) And the fried chicken special was exactly that. My son, one of the world’s pickiest eaters, described the strawberries and cream dessert as ‘one of the best I’ve ever had’. Seriously great evening out.

2 months agoBeen here twice-the first for a birthday and most recently, to enjoy a nice meal with friends from out of province. Both times, we ordered the chef's tasting menu and wow. Incredible service and food, excellent flavour balance especially paired with the wine pairing, and enough food that will put you in a food coma. Great bang for your buck. Richmond Station remains a wonderful experience (better than some 1 Michelin star restaurants I've been to) and I will no doubt be back again to try out their ever changing chef's tasting menu. Do make a reservation though, we reserved for Thursday at 7:30 pm and the place was packed.
