    A total experience. The service was warm and welcoming. The decor, modern but not cold. All the staff who visited our table were knowledge and friendly, like you could tell they truly enjoy being there. The cocktails are presented as a magazine, very eye appealing and well done. We tried the Rise from the Ashes and Our Oasis. Rise from the Ashes is lit on fire tableside, so much fun! We did the tasting menu. Every course was different but full of so much flavour. And just the right amount! We left feeling satisfied but not that we had to go home and lay down. So we continued on with our evening, enjoying a bit of a cheese and an after dinner sipper (the list is lengthy and full of choice). Recommend to all diners looking to experience something new and fresh! Uptown Waterloo is lucky to have! Thank you to the S&V team

    Tasting menu was an interesting way to sample a wide range of tastes. Small portions. Attic char was our favourite and tenderloin done to perfection. BREAD served with meal..a rarity. One of us had beef tartare and enjoyed. Great service and our server detected a birthday event and surprised us with a savory treat in the end. Impressed

    Amazing cocktails, great service ! Overpriced entrees for amount you get (we literally walked to olive restaurant) right after to get board. Also, my wife and I ordered oysters and got 3. Although oysters were beautifully prepared you dont give at odd number to a couple. Having said this, we will be back for cocktails. Danny

    The food was bland, cold, but was nicely presented. Portions were ridiculously small for the quality of the ingredients and price. Two oysters? Ok. If you are after an instagram selfie, great. If you enjoy eating dinner, not so much.

    Hoped I could rate S&V higher than this, but was disappointed. Drinks were ok, but less impressive than they sounded (and cleared from the table before I was done). Charcuterie board was nice, but very light on the meat and 2 similar style of cheese - white cheddar and a manchego. My main was cold, sent it back and then ate after the others at my table. Mains were unremarkable. Thought perhaps a drink or one appetizer would have been Comp’ d with having to send back my meal but nothing. Our server was polite and helpful. So much potential, but at best, this was a mediocre experience.

    We enjoyed a fantastic evening at S&V last night, celebrating my father’s 80th birthday Exceptional service from Maddie, she was patient with our group of 2 seniors, 2 adults and 2 children. We had the charcuterie board and seared foie as starters. I highly recommend the foie gras. Our table also ordered the braised short rib, beef tenderloin, truffle risotto and I ordered the tasting menu. We all left extremely full and very happy. I live in the GTA and regularly go to upscale restaurants. The level of artistry (both taste and visual) in their menu is on par with 5* venues in GTA. I’m so happy that a K-W option of this calibre has finally arrived to the region. We look forward to returning and I’m already booking Mother’s Day and Father’s Day here!

    A beautiful dining experience from start to finish. The food was exquisite and the pairings to coincide added great value to each bite. If you are looking for high quality food and wine, coupled with top class service this is your next adventure. Can rival top restaurants in Toronto, a great experience in uptown Waterloo.

    Absolutely incredible experience. We loved the variety of cocktails and had about 8 different ones that were all unique and tasty. One of our party had the tasting menu and it was outstanding. We tried many of the sharing plates and all agreed the scallops were a favourite. We were well looked after and had a wonderful evening

    this place was amazing. My boyfriend and I went for a late valentines day celebration and we were looking for a place that had a creative touch but also wasn't too far from home. This place exceeded our expectations to say the least. I liked how it gave high end vibes but no pressure on the customers to dress to impress. The service was amazing, my water never got close to empty. I would for sure recommend for people looking to try something new!

    This was our first time at S&V. I follow them on Instagram and have been wanting to go. It did not disappoint! Our meals were outstanding. I ordered the tortellini main course, which had so many complex flavours. For example, there was a tempura mushroom that was almost more of a garnish, but each bite unbelievable. We were served by Maddie and she was an absolute delight - friendly and attentive without ever intruding on the experience. This will be our new go-to place for special occasions.
