Red Canoe BistroExcellence!This was our second experience at Red Canoe Bistro and clearly was chosen after an epic first one!
The service at Red Canoe is impeccable. The wait staff are knowledgeable about all of the menu items, open to questions and quick to make suggestions. The service is so seamless it's nearly invisible. Your water and wine glasses are always magically full. While a problem during the meal is rare, if one occurs, it is addressed immediately.
To say that the food is delightful would be a bit of an understatement. The menu is small but filled with luxurious things. It feels like the chef focuses on creating incredible bites. The focus on local products creates an interesting eating experience.
Highly recommended!5/25/2013 12:00:00 AMGood Local Food and WineThe one thing that sets the Red Canoe Bistro apart from other restaurants is that they focus on getting their produce and food from the local farmers in the area. The food was delicious and well presented. Our waiter was also very good and he was knowledgeable about the wines that they serve. They have an extensive wine list and most importantly the wines are from the local area. I would definitely go back. I'd like to try some of their other dishes and everyone at our table was more than happy with their food. It's a good place for special occasions as some of their prices can be a bit pricey, but the food was well worth it.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMGood place for a leisurely meal.Food and service were very good, but there was a very long wait times between courses. Fortunately, we were there for an evening out and the extremely leisurely pace did not hamper our enjoyment of the evening. However, those who wish a faster paced meal should be cautioned not to expect that here.5/9/2013 12:00:00 AMTasting menu superbWe ordered the seven course with wine pairings - absolutely delish. The cauliflower, potato + aged cheddar soup was simply perfect. Will definitely be back next time we are in Burlington. Our table of seven people had a fabulous time there catching up and did not feel rushed at all.5/4/2013 12:00:00 AM
