Me and my friends enjoyed the vibe of the restaurant. Delicious food and great Service by Jojo. He know his work, we were immencly impressed they way he was sure what his customer's needs are. We went their for the first time and depended on his recommendations which we must say were perfectly flavoured as per our taste. he served us food at perfect temperature. We will defiantly come again and recommend this restaurant.
This was my fourth time at the restaurant and it was phenomenal every single time. Did not disappoint.

It's wonderful to know we have made your dining experience incredible every single time. We hope to see you back our way soon to do it all again. All the best, Stuart K.
The food was tasty, but not exceptional. Pricey! Staff friendly.
Thank you for giving us a try, Linds! We’re happy to hear you loved our friendly staff. However, we’re sorry that we didn’t knock it out of the park for you when it comes to taste and value. We always want all of our guests to leave feeling wowed by our meals, and we wish we could've given you this impression. I hope we can impress you more next time! All the best, Stuart K
The restaurant is beautiful, aesthetically pleasing, however, I found the brunch dishes my wife and I had, were underwhelming. I had the French toast, and she had the beef short rib hash. The French toast was the worst I’ve had, and only 1 slice, but the berries were delicious. I ate it all because I was hungry. My wife’s hash was ok, but under seasoned, and 1st came out cold. Perhaps if I’m in the neighbourhood again, I’ll try their croissants.
Had the flat iron steak frites, medium rare. Was delicious and perfectly cooked. Service was very kind and friendly. Would definitely come back.
Suzan, we're happy to hear that you enjoyed your experience, especially dining on our flat iron steak! Thanks for leaving your awesome review. We'd love to welcome you back for another great experience paired with perfect service. All the best, Stuart K.
Great food
Thanks for leaving your fantastic review! It was a pleasure welcoming you in. It is wonderful you enjoyed the five-star experience we're known for and you expected from us. We look forward to your next meal with us. All the best, Stuart K.
Service was terrible, 20 min for the server to visit the table, another 20 min to bring the drink order. Sadly, many of the regular menu items were not available and of the somewhat min. menu, several items were "sold out." This was one of my fav restaurants, however after this experience I will not be returning.
Roger, we appreciate you taking the time to provide your feedback. It's disappointing that your most recent visit was anything less than outstanding. We fully understand there is no excuse for service that misses the mark, so please know that your feedback has been heard. In regard to sold out menu items, we apologize for the lack of options available to you. This feedback will be reported back to the team to ensure it doesn't happen again. We do hope you will visit us again. Best, Stuart K.
Love this place.
We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed our cuisine so much! Thanks for leaving your amazing review and we look forward to seeing you again soon for another delicious meal. All the best, Stuart K.
Very poor service. Our meals came out at different times and we waited about 15+ mins for our server who was nowhere to be found. Food was okay but nothing special.
Thanks for taking the time to review us! While we're delighted you enjoyed our ambiance and cuisine, it's disappointing we didn't quite hit the mark when it comes to service. We take great pride in delivering efficient, friendly customer service, so we're surprised your experience was anything less than outstanding. Please know your feedback has been heard and passed along accordingly. We hope you give us another chance to demonstrate the amazing service we're known for. Best, Stuart K.
Lovely, attentive, personable service. Our meal was wonderful and the fries are out of this world.
Laura, it means the world to us that you enjoyed your meal, especially our frites! Thanks for stopping by and leaving your fantastic review. We hope to see you back our way soon for another lovely meal and perfect service. All the best, Stuart K.
Very good first time experience. We were welcomed with a friendly greeting. The restaurant is very nice and the patio is lovely. We really enjoyed the white sangria cocktail. Our starters were great...the Ceasar salad is amazing! We really enjoyed our meals and the service was good.
Sandi, thank you for giving us a try! It's wonderful to hear you loved your experience and our entire team provided top notch service. We're thrilled you thoroughly enjoyed our white sangria cocktail and caesar salad. We would be happy to welcome you back to Cluny again for more of your favourites. Best, Stuart K.
Cluneys was a wonderful surprise. We had been there for brunch so this was our first time for dinner. The wait staff were friendly and engaging and very helpful in the selection of our meal and wine. Their entrees are very creative and their gluten free options delicious. I had the salmon which was really the best salmon I have had. Some people at our table had the monkfish and enjoyed it as well. Cluneys is a great place to dine.
James, thank you for the phenomenal feedback! We're so glad you got to join us for dinner and try some of our creative entrees. It's also wonderful to hear that you experienced the 5-star service we are known for and you expect from us. We look forward to seeing you again soon for another salmon entree! Until then, Stuart K.
Helpful waiter and magical ambiance on the patio !
Charles, it's wonderful to have your support! We're so glad our serving staff were helpful and knowledgable. It's also wonderful to hear our interior made your visit that much more memorable. We hope that you'll join us again the next time you are around. All the best, Stuart K.
Food could be better, old menu and taste is average.
Thanks for taking the time to leave your review! While we're thrilled you enjoyed our ambiance and had amazing service, we're disappointed we didn't quite hit the mark when it comes to flavours. Our servers are happy to suggest recommendations that might be more to your liking. We are confident that there is something perfect on our menu for everyone so please join us again to try more of our tasty dishes. All the best, Stuart K.
Yelling “corner!” by servers when entering kitchen made it seem a little like a diner.
Michele, thanks for your review. We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed our cuisine and had great service. We hear your feedback regarding the ambiance. We hope you make it back our way sometime soon! All the best, Stuart K.
Excellent food and service; an excellent place for a social gathering
Vincent, our guests deserve only the absolute best! It's great to hear you had excellent service and our delicious food. Thanks for showing your support and we look forward to seeing you again soon for another good time! All the best, Stuart K.
I was really excited to try this restaurant but upon arrival as they are short staff, it took a long time for the server to take our order.
NOTE: A lot of items on the menu is out of stock so there wasn’t much of a selection.
Appetisers arrived but they didn’t bother explaining which dishes were what. (I.e what oysters we’ve ordered and the sauces around the sides)
Appetisers were yummy, definitely better than the mains!
However this is when we had to wait at least 40 minutes for our mains as they had a private party but no explanations given! We tried asking our server but he mentioned the manager will come apologise..
I have to say the manager did come by but he didn’t apologise and just said oh we had a big party today so there is back logs of dishes..
The experience was so so - food and ambience was good, mains arrived abit cold.. service is definitely TERRIBLE! It was a massive disappointment as is my birthday meal..
Amanda, thank you for providing your feedback. It’s disappointing to hear you did not have the outstanding experience that you deserve for such a special occasion. We would like to apologize for the inconvenience when it comes to slow service as well as sold out items. We fully understand that there is no excuse for service that misses the mark, so please know that your feedback has been heard. We'd love to welcome you back and hope you get the experience you deserve. All the Best, Stuart K.
The bread basket was not as fancy as described on the menu especially compare to few years ago. The Cheese board was overpriced for what was presented in terms of quality and quantity. I am French so I was expecting much better especially given my previous experiences there.
Also the duck breast we ordered was not available after the waitress went in the kitchen with our orders.
Overall it remains a good restaurant for the food and the experience.
Thank you for being a regular guest with us and leaving your feedback! We appreciate the feedback you have provided here and it will be passed along accordingly. Saying that, we are happy to hear that you enjoyed your overall experience and look forward to seeing you again soon for a more memorable experience. All the best, Stuart K.

Nick, it means the world to us that you enjoyed our cuisine and flavours. Thank you for taking the time to leave your fantastic review! We look forward to welcoming you in again soon for another exceptional experience. All the best, Stuart K.
Food was so delicious! Would definitely come back. We had the salmon tartare to start and the french onion soup (soo good). Mains were really good too -
And they had great gluten free options as well!
We're so glad that you enjoyed the salmon tartare and french onion soup while you were here! It's wonderful to have your support and we look forward to doing it all again on your next visit. Until then, Stuart K.
We have dined at Cluny many times over the years and have never been disappointed.
Barone, we're grateful for you taking a moment to leave this review! It's amazing to hear you have dined with us many times and enjoyed every single experience. We look forward to seeing you at Cluny again soon for the amazing service you expect and deserve. Best, Stuart K.
I was underwhelmed by the experience of dining at Cluny. The food just isn’t that good, and there certainly is nothing French about the food.
Thank you for reviewing our restaurant, Julia, and giving us a try! It's disappointing to hear we didn't quite hit high on your expectations when it comes to our cuisine and flavours. We always want all of our guests to leave feeling wowed by our meals, and we wish we could've given you this impression. Please know, our chef and his team put a lot of care and consideration into every dish. We hope you consider giving us another chance to show you our amazing flavours. Best, Stuart K.
I have to say I love the cluny I go all the time!! And was absolutely shocked by yesterday’s lunch experience:( I waited 20 minutes for someone to even come to the table …where we immediately ordered water and a cocktail each …when the cocktails came we said we would order in a few minutes…order some apps …when they came we were out of water and cocktails…1:15 minutes after our first cocktail I had to go inside and look for our waiter where was no where to be found so I asked the person at the front for him and also water and the crement bubbles that we ordered…so he finally came back to the table and said we are out of the champagne we ordered and out of the crement would you like the rose bubbles…so we said yes we will have that …20 minutes later he comes back empty handed again saying out of that too…so I asked what do you have? Prosecco great bring that! Finally he brings Prosecco which we no longer want any more because our lunch was almost over now:( I had to ask for bread at least six times…salt and Aoli dressing never showed this was a three hour terrible experience and I’m very sad because like I said I love the cluny and it wasn’t even busy in the restaurant at all…not sure what is happening but all I can say is wow …I tried really hard to spend some money there and support the cluny but if I don’t get any service I can’t spend any Money :(

We’ve eaten at Cluny’s twice with friends. Both times on their lovely patio, which is dog friendly. Recent visit was with friends visiting from England and we all enjoyed ourselves very much. I love that they have a vegan and vegetarian option on the menu. This is becoming one of my favorite restaurants.
Sandra, we are absolutely honoured to be one of your favourite restaurants. Thank you for dining with us many times and bringing your friends! It's great that you enjoyed many of our tasty menu options, especially our vegan/vegetarian friendly items. We can't wait to do it all again on your next visit. Best, Stuart K.
Beautiful patio and lovely atmosphere and music, as usual. Romantic and perfect for our anniversary.
Dessert was phenomenal.
Thank you!

Bill, thank you for taking the time to show us your support! Happy to hear our cuisine and service blew you away. We hope to see you back our way soon for another delicious brunch meal. Until then, Stuart K.
Service was excellent and it has lovely ambiance but the food was mediocre. Disappointing since it was our daughters birthday brunch.

Unfortunately Cluny disappointed last night.
Got there and asked to be seated outside on the patio and was told there was no availability - went to our table and after placing our order we noticed atleast 4 tables outside were free.
So we asked the server if he could move us outside and he gladly obliged - solid guy!
The fact that the hostess told us there was no availability outside was strange and definitely put us off. Not sure what kind of bias or discrimination was going on there but that's something for Cluny's management to sort out.
This was our 3rd time at Cluny just this summer alone but don't think we'll be returning.
Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback to us, Harris. We are very sorry to hear about your recent experience and are deeply troubled that you were left with this impression of us. We genuinely understand your frustration regarding the seating situation and apologize for the lack of service at the start of your visit. We do hope that you will give us another chance to show you a 5-star experience should you choose to visit us again. All the best, Stuart K.
The food here is absolutely delicious. So rich and decadent. The onion soup, caesar salad, steak tartar, beef dip, and steak frites were the highlights. Such a beautiful interior and heated patio as well! We will absolutely be back.
NicAbby, thank you for taking the time to show us your support! We are honoured to know that our French onion soup, caesar salad, steak tartare, beef dip and steak frites were items that you enjoyed so much! We look forward to your return and another lovely meal. All the best, Stuart K.

We're thrilled to hear that your server made your dining experience so memorable! It's wonderful you experienced the 5-star service we're known for and you most definitely deserve. We hope to see you again soon for another exceptional experience. All the best, Stuart K.
Very attentive service, nice ambiance, good value for the money. I love the french toast. My friend ordered short rib which is a bit overcooked and tough. Nice place to spend some good time.
H, it was wonderful welcoming you in for brunch. Thank you for leaving your review. We're thrilled you had attentive service and especially enjoyed the French Toast. We look forward to welcoming you again sometime in the future. Until next time, Stuart K.
Beautiful decor and ambience, great food, and excellent service! Highly recommend.

Ashley, thank you for joining us on our beautiful patio! It was a pleasure having you dine with us and we're thrilled you enjoyed your meal and wine selection. We'd love to welcome you back to Cluny again. All the best, Stuart K.
Some of the deserts get sold out very quickly so, if there is a specific desert that you are looking forward to, let the servers know before the start of the dinner so that they can pre-book it.
Definitely try the coq au vin poutine.
The outside seating is beautiful!
Neha, thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback! We're thrilled you had the opportunity to join us on our patio. It means a lot to have your high praise for the coq au vin poutine. We hope to see you back our way soon to try more of our delicious desserts and dishes. All the best, Stuart K.

Vincent, we are happy to hear you have enjoyed your experience with us many times! Our guests deserve only the absolute best. We look forward to seeing you again for a table on our patio. All the best, Stuart K.
Overall great experience!
Our waiter was very knowledgeable about the dishes and he gave honest recommendations; gave us hints about portion sizes overall value of the meal. The meals were delicious and well portioned. The ambiance was beautiful with string lights in the patio and heaters, it was chilly day but felt very comfortable and warm
Thank you for leaving this amazing review! From the moment you walk in, you can expect a welcoming team to take care of you. We're delighted your server's recommendations hit the spot. We look forward to welcoming you back for another lovely meal on our beautiful patio. All the best, Stuart K.
