    Dined here with my wife and sister largely on the basis of Chef McKay’s fame and appreciation for his cooking. Nothing disappointed. We had the chefs tasting menu which they were easily able to adapt to my wife’s allergies to seafood and nuts. Every dish was an experience and absolutely to die for. We also chose the wine pairings and this was done very well including a red Greek wine which was spectacular. Service was fantastic … loved it, loved it, loved it!!!!!

    My husband and I came to celebrate our anniversary and had the Chef’s Tasting Menu. We had such an amazing experience. Our server was so attentive and took great care of us and the food was to die for. They were also very accommodating to my dietary restrictions and it definitely did not take away from the experience at all. Overall the experience was so amazing and memorable and we will definitely be back for our next celebration! We like a quiet atmosphere so we decided to go earlier in the evening which was great!

    Striploin was done perfect and seasoned to perfection. Prawns were excellent. Everything was delicious. Service was really good. Our server was busier with a large table so was a little slow at times for us but that was minor. All in all great food, good service and good atmosphere.

    Hadn’t been back in years. But it was worth the wait. the best restaurant in the province - perhaps even one of the best in the nation. Food was fantastic. Service not the level of global restaurants but still acceptable. Overall - excellent.

    Tried the 4 course taster menu. Tasty food. Did not enjoy the potatoes with ketchup - odd combination that felt like it belonged on a toddlers plate. However, the other food nice. The pork had a very strong aftertaste. We went early, so it was mostly empty, but later in the evening it was jam packed and very noisy. The chef yelling was a little too loud for an ambient atmosphere. Decor was nice. Parking was a challenge. Overall, not outstanding but quite nice.

    Overall the dining experience was fantastic. The dishes were done well and the staff was very hospitable. Unfortunately the aged beef loin I was served was a very tough cut and was difficult to thoroughly enjoy. The dining area was very close quarters and there was a fairly high ambient noise while dining making conversation difficult at times. Overall it was an enjoyable experience I would definitely dine here again.

    Very loud and crowded, We were seated in the corner of the room with my elbows continuously hitting the wall and was very uncomfortable. For the prices we were paying I would’ve thought our server would’ve checked on us instead of just throwing our food on the table and leaving. I did not enjoy as much as I thought i would. Although the food was very good.

    The selection of appetizers & meals are extraordinary! The appetizer was delicious ; the sirloin steak for my husband was excellent right down to the last morsel! The Pork Tenderloin melted in my mouth & the sauce was decadent! Wine was excellent & dessert- eggnog brûlée - totally savoured each bite. Servers etc were wonderful! Friendly, warm vibe! Love Aydens! Thank you

    Wonderful dining experience. We ordered the chef's family style tasting menu and would highly recommend it. Our drinks were very good too. The restaurant also gifted us with a special dessert for my husband's birthday. It was an delicious dinner and special night out. We took our time and enjoyed each of the 4-courses that were part of the tasting menu.

    I sent my parents to Ayden for their 45th wedding anniversary. They both had the chefs tasting accompanied by the wine pairing. They couldn’t say enough about how amazing the food and service was… unfortunately they were sat beside a very loud man that kinda killed the ambience a little. Overall Ayden is fabulous 👌🏼

    We used to love coming to Aiden, however our last experiences have been disappointing, the food is not as sharp as it used to be. I wrote to the management team before writing this review but never even received an answer which was disappointing.. I doubt we will return and will probably try out other options next time we are in town.
