About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for business meals
It all began with a love story and a dream. Linwood, a chef, and Ellen, a reporter, met 36 years ago in a restaurant of course! They married and began to envision that someday they would open a restaurant of their own. The restaurant’s first business plan was written at their dining room table on an electric typewriter. In 1988 Linwoods opened its doors, and it has been a labour of love for more than thirty years.

Linwoods’ cuisine consists of the freshest ingredients, and inventive preparation. Our service is warm and attentive. We have developed a reputation for consistency an attention to detail. These qualities are key to our catering business as well. Our team has worked hard to connect to our community, and we value our customers. These values have been central to Ellen and Linwood’s vision, and we hope are felt by our customers each day.

    Our service was excellent! We never had to ask for our water glasses to be refilled-it’s the little things!! The lobster tempura was delicious. My classic burger was also very good (and surprisingly was so large that I could only eat half). I’ve been dining here for many years and I’m never disappointed.

    Linwoods is always good. They brought back the gazpacho which I adore. One of us had trout with crab imperial which he said was excellent - lots of crab - another had a filet. In all the years I have been going to Linwoods, no one has ever ordered a steak but this one looked great and I was told it was excellent.

    The best martini in town! (according to my wife) Great cocktails, variety and quality of food! Our waiter Ahmi (sp?) was fantastic and very attentive. The chef even stopped by to make sure everything was okay. We'll be back soon.

    This place never disappoints! We were there last night with my husband's aunt who has very specific dietary restrictions. The wonderful executive chef came out to say hello and she asked him about her options (of which there were several) and took his recommendation based on her needs to get sea bass, simply prepared, with vegetables. She said her meal was amazing and that she would eat there every week if she lived nearby. My salmon with pistachios was incredible (I've had it before and it's consistently good) and everyone else was very happy with their selections. Several birthdays were going on around us and the place was very festive. I look forward to our next visit!
