Best restaurant I've been to in ages. Wonderful service, the food was so delicious. Very creative and thoughtful menu. I'd recommend this spot to anyone who cares about healthy local ingredients, great flavour and great service.

I just discovered Test Kitchen Uptown and what a find! Atmosphere is super - simple but classy. Service was very good and servers very affable and courteous. Food - well I don't think there is anything on the menu that isn't excellent - and such a good variety - my compliments to the chefs there. The most value for the price I have ever had! In short, this has now become my lunch and meeting place of choice - I'll try dinner this weekend with my husband and be back to you after that.

We enjoyed the varied menu and the fact that it changes from time to time. So it does not get boring with the same old thing. Very pleasant time to sit and chat and enjoy lunch.

We have eaten lunch at your restaurant about 1/2 a dozen times and enjoyed it every time. The atmosphere is light and happy, you don't want to come here for a quiet lunch though. I have enjoyed each meal that I have had. It is a very good deal for lunch.

This was our first time to this restaurant. It was very quiet in the restaurant when we were there but it was a snowy weekday. The food was good and the changing menu keeps it interesting. My husband did not like the entrée he had, it was the boar. He found it a bit too overcooked for his liking. Personal preference perhaps. The staff was fantastic. We will try it out again once the tasting menu changes.

I heard great things about the creative food and I thought the atmosphere would be more like a nice, upper scale restaurant - nothing too fancy, but a nice date night place. But I was disappointed... it's a small venue, which is fine, but then there is a large bar area that is exposed to the dining room which was playing sports games on large TVs. It was like the 2 sides of the restaurant didn't go together. The waiter and my husband talked and watched the game throughout the evening! The food was quite good, but since date nights are a luxury these days, I won't use another one to go back to this restaurant. I prefer a different atmosphere for that kind of dinner out.

2 of the 4 meals were delivered to the table cold. Once our meal was done around 10:00 it was difficult to get drinks given majority of employees left for the night. Interesting food choices.

Had plans in the area and decided to try this as it seemed to be unique. The food was quite good. Service was rushed and and a little pushy. The restaurant wasn't busy although there was a party in the bar area. We should have been able to enjoy the dinner at a leisurely pace but that wasn't happening.

The food was alright but because it changes frequently, you have no way of knowing if you are going to like what is on the menu that time. There was only one thing on the menu that sounded like something I would enjoy, so I did not have much choice.
