Amazing experience. I recommend to everyone. Food was 💯 so so so good and done so well. Server was polite. Could have checked back a few more times, disappeared for very long stretches. Timing very slow for all 3 courses so be prepared to make dining an entire evening experience for a 5:30 reservation completed meal after 8 pm.

Little hole in the wall on Danforth at the bottom of Woodycrest. Very unassuming, yet serves delicious food

I had an amazing experience at Pura Vida! 🌿 The atmosphere is cozy and beautifully designed — it truly feels like a little getaway. A huge shoutout to our waiter Max, who was incredibly attentive, friendly, and professional. He helped me choose my meal, explained everything in detail, and recommended the avocado toast and salmon ceviche — and both were absolutely delicious! 🥑🐟

Great restaurant. Excellent food, fair pricing, great service, nice ambiance. The only thing missing was availability of hot drinks at the end of the meal. We were told that this was by design but we think this decision should be reconsidered. However this will not preclude us from returning. We think that having the restaurant under COR would be an asset and it would certainly help visitors find out about this wonderful eatery.

About the restaurant

WE LOVE LOCAL. YOUR FARM TO TABLE HEADQUARTERS.

Now well into our third decade in business, Eddington’s attributes the restaurant’s success to creating flavorful and creative meals consistently using the best of Huron County’s bounty.
Owner James Eddington states “we are so blessed to be living in such an agriculturally rich area of the world”.
Although the local food movement is really starting to take off, it has always been the driving force in Eddington’s kitchen. A menu that changes frequently, as each season inspires the delicacies our region has to offer.
Eddington’s occupies the original Carling homestead (built in the 1870’s). After two major renovations, an addition of the a new dining room and a serene outdoor backyard summer patio, the restaurant has a clean and modern look while maintaining its traditional and warm feel.

We had a great afternoon at Eddingtons. Great, friendly service and quick with meal delivery. I had asked before we arrived if we could linger after our meal to visit with high school friends of over 50 years. They allowed us to do this and gave us lots of space & time to reminisce and enjoy our long time friendship. Food was delicious. We'll be back. Thank you.

It’s always a pleasure dining at Il Bucco - the staff, Jenn (give extra props for reciting the specials so eloquently😅), and Giancarlo made our evening extra special! The food was outstanding as always! Great to see Russ there also! We’ll be back of course - looking forward to enjoying visit on the patio!
