    The blind tasting dinner is always a pleasure, though definitely on the expensive side. For a once-a-year experience it's well worth it, though.

    This was our first time at Next and we’re absolutely delighted. The food was exceptional and very delicious. We were lucky to have Michael Blackie as our waiter, He was very charming. Can’t wait to back and try different menu items and one of the signature cocktails.

    The food is fantastic, but the tables are too close together for private conversations. At the time we went, there were few guests, but everyone was seated at tables all in one row so it was quite noisy. The service was OK, but it felt like everyone we dealt with was new to the job. I would definitely recommend going for the food though.

    We had an amazing time at Next! Our server was attentive and extremely knowledgeable. Everything we ordered was seasoned perfectly and the flavours married well together. We have to mention the Kapow Cauliflower it was incredible!!! If we weren’t so full, we would have placed a second order.

    This restaurant may not be for everybody. The food is a wonderful fusion of styles that may not be for everyone's palate. The service is attentive and the food while delicious, will be pricey for many. Dinner for two with one shared appetizer, two mains, desert, and a bottle of wine, and sparkling water was over $170. For a special occasion I highly recommend NeXT.

    The food at Next is spectacular. The menu is authentic and very diverse in flavours. We have been there many times and have always been thrilled with our meal. This last visit was for our 49th wedding anniversary. Our server Barb was very engaging and made our evening extra special. I would highly recommend this restaurant.

    Had a really great meal. As first timers, Michael was very friendly and explanatory of all the dishes on the menu, we thoroughly enjoy the food. My only bit of confusion was when booking online, there was an option to add a special occasion. As I was taking my girlfriend out for her birthday, I added that to the reservation. She even got wished a happy birthday when we got there. We finished our meal and paid, and when we got up to leave noticed someone being brought a dessert with a candle in it. My only assumption was that we got overlooked on the birthday. Not that I was expecting anything, I was just confused why there would be an option to add a special occasion if they didn't offer anything for it. But despite that, we had a really great meal and the staff was very friendly and we'll definitely be returning.

    We had a lovely date night dinner but we felt a little rushed with dinner. Well considered kitchen like aesthetic to the decor, not noisy at all, delish French 75 ish cocktail, smart wine list. The olive oil garlic bread was divine but wish we had more labneh on the board. So yummy! The short rib was well plated and scrumptious but was a little tough and dried out. Will try it again next time tho…the short rib option is always our go-to dish at Next! Til next time!
