Ok but definitely not worth the price. Unfortunately feels like a place that takes itself far too seriously. The interior of the restaurant was nice and we got a table right beside the kitchen. Had a reservation and unfortunately arrived 10 minutes late but the staff was friendly and said it wouldn’t be a problem if we were finished by 8:30. I don’t think I have ever had a multi-hour meal for two people intentionally, so that wasn’t a concern. Starting with an appetizer of mussels, sauce was delicious, but the mussels were hit and miss with many overcooked/deflated or busted. Fries also had a burnt flavor to them. Kind-of a small portion as you can see for $33, but the sauce saved the dish so I would give it a 7/10. Baby Lobster Linguini was next for one of the mains. This was very tasty but they didn’t fully clean the shrimp (gross) and it was heavy on the sauce and lite on the linguini. Again, portion size was not what you would expect for a $45 pasta dish but that was my expectation walking through the door so I’d give it another 7/10. Finally, our second main was the Scallop Farro Risotto. Make sure you reread that name because my mistake was missing the word farro. This was not risotto at all, it was farrow with tiny cut veggies mixed in and absolutely drenched in oil, making it appear more like a soup than risotto. It was completely inedible, I might as well have gone to KFC and taken a ladle from the fryer, the only flavor was oil. To top it off the scallops were cut in half and either burnt dry or half raw. Pro tip: when the base of a $45 dish consists of $0.50 worth of farrow faux ‘rice’, maybe splurge and give the guest five-six full scallops. Don’t cook one side and cut them in half, looks extremely low rent at this price point. Each of us took one bite and couldn’t eat it. 0/10, one of the worst dishes I have ever eaten. When the waiter came to the table he kind of gave me a knowing look when he saw my plate was still full, as though this wasn’t the first time. Since this was a celebratory dinner I didn’t want to ruin the night by complaining so we just asked for the cheque. A little disappointed that the waiter didn’t even inquire if there was a problem with the food but I’m sure he already knew all too well. Besides, it was my own mistake for not reading the menu closer. I would recommend clarifying with the customer that the dish is not technically risotto if/when it is requested in the future as I would have definitely changed my order had I known. Also, please ask that the wait staff stop placing the napkins on customers’ laps, it isn’t 1940 and it’s a bit creepy in 2023. Everyone is capable of placing their napkin exactly where they feel it will be most useful. All in all the experience was just ok so I can’t justify the price tag or going back. With one glass of wine and the dishes listed above the bill for two was ~$150 + tip. For that price I would expect to be blown away. Save your money and go to Cactus Club.

Now I understand why XIX Nineteen is rated really by food critics. And yes I agree with them as I enjoyed the food, beverages and service. The food was really good and not much complaints. Mussels was excellent as it is fresh and doesn't have that seafood or foul oder/taste. The sauce for the mussels was rich, hearty and creamy. The server was right to dip bread into the sauce. Fries were fried perfectly and has that nice crispy texture. I enjoyed my bolognese cavatelli. The pasta was cook el dente and the bolognese was hearty. I tried my Borthers Bison tartare. It was really good with the smoked aroma from smoking the dish. I also liked the grilled cheese for the soup. My main was the Quebec Veal Chop. The chop was cook to perfection. Moist and tender meat. Though one complaint with the dish is the navy beans was not cooked through as most of the beans were chewy and hard. Just a few more minutes then the entire dish would be perfect. However I will not deduct any score as the entire experience was excellent. The lamb osso bucco, beef rib and pork belly were also good too. Beef rib was cooked until the beef is tender and falls off the bone. Dessert was good. I liked my freshly baked cookie with scoop of ice cream. I forgot the name of the other dessert but will attach pictures in the review. The server remembers the dinner was to celebrate my Brother's birthday and he went far and beyond. Unlike some restaurants, server forgot the reason for why we are celebrating. For beverages, I ordered Old Fashion. Really good drink and better than XO bistro. You can taste bourbon, and bitters. Also I believe soft drinks is unlimited based on my observation. Overall the experience and the meal was excellent. Highly recommend going to this restaurant for dinner or even celebrate.

Had a disappointing experience for our anniversary dinner last night. I called in to say we would be 10-15 minutes late for a 6:15 pm reservation, to which the girl said they would need the table by 8:30pm, I told her I completely understand. Just as we were walking towards the entrance, I received a call from someone else, I let her know we’re just about to walk in and she reiterated they’ll need the table by 8:30 pm and, again, I said I totally understand. As we entered to check in, the girl mentions to us a *third time* that they will need the table by 8:30 pm... Initially our waiter, Scott was helpful letting us know what was on special but unfortunately, the service declined throughout the evening. Not once did he come ask if we were enjoying our meal; all of which were underwhelming. The drinks (champagne supernova) were so strong and tasted nothing like the description, I could not even finish mine. I enjoyed the wagyu gnocchi and crème brûlée but my boyfriends steak was nothing special. We kept checking the time to ensure we were out by the time they repeatedly mentioned. Scott brought us the bill as we asked by 8:10 pm and we sat patiently waiting for him to come by with the machine, he finally came by 8:32 pm and scurried off to make small talk at two other tables nearby (interesting since he did not make the same effort with us). Overall we’re very displeased with the poor service and mediocre quality of the food. We were especially looking forward to a finer dining experience for our special occasion and this fell so short of that. Something else to note, the tables are poorly spaced out considering COVID.

We came in for a family dinner last night. Our server, Scott, was excellent. He very clearly has been doing this a long time based on his attention to the table, ensuring drinks were full and dirty tableware never lingered. The whole team here was running like a well-oiled machine last night. Orders were taken, drinks arrived, appies rolled out, and mains shortly thereafter. Never a "when is our food coming" thought in our minds, so applause to the kitchen for their timing. All 8 mains came out at the same time, hot and perfect. Most restaurants now can't even fire 3-4 dishes so they finish at the same time. The tuna twists were fantastic, a crowd favourite. I will always order these when I come for dinner. The spicy cauliflower was great, just right in all aspects. The Picanha steak was cooked expertly, great med-rare colour and a perfect crust. The toast with fresh ricotta cheese and bruschetta was a great salty/sweet/creamy balance to the richness of the steak. The rest of the table very much enjoyed their dishes. The Gnocchi could use a little more flavour, it felt somewhat incomplete. If that's our only gripe, it's minimal. 10/10, Excellent job to anyone that was on-shift last night. Thank you for a fantastic dinner service.

So I finally decided to go to this restaurant to celebrate my anniversary. I had mixed feelings due to hearing a lot of bad things about the ownership from the past and whatnot but eventually I was told it was a great place to eat and something I should really have for my anniversary. To begin the staff was very very nice and our server was by far the best, you could really tell he liked the restaurant and the food because as soon as we mention what we wanted he was more excited than us about it, he gave us the right options for everything as well. We first tried to ahí tuna appetizers and let me tell you they were the best thing I've had in a very long time, the fork already wrapped noodles with the very nice tuna and sauce was just way to good, I could eat that many times over, then I had the alberta short ribs and that thing was the most tender short rib I've ever had. I didn't even need a knife to cut it and the sauce just gave I that better taste, the girlfriend had the beef tenderloin and it was cooked for perfection, I usually don't get steaks at restaurants because they never cook it right but this steak was cooked perfectly and tenderly. I highly suggest this restaurant for a night out or a celebration.

Went tonight to celebrate my birthday, I was really excited as I heard plenty of compliments about the restaurant. For starters we had the Geyoza and baked brie. The Geyoza was actually close to perfect, soft, great filling and overall delicious. The brie was not that exciting, I’d make a better one at home, no twist in the flavours. For the main dish we got the short ribs and gnocchi. The short rib was actually phenomenal, it was super soft and just amazing. As I was having my first bite to eat my gnocchi, I found a hair.That was super disappointing, pointed out to the waiter which he took the dish and had them make me a new one, when I got the gnocchi, I was already tired and ready to eat and leave but if I were you, I would steer clear from the gnocchi as it’s super salty and unbalanced. For compensation, I got a cake on the house. It was the butter cake with ice cream. That was pretty good. Probably better than the gnocchi. suggestion to the restaurant: next time, if your guest finds hair in their food, you make them a new one and usually you don’t charge them for having to wait twice for their main while my husband finish this food i had to wait for my food. I don’t think I’ll ever be back to 19.

Service & Atmosphere: Came to celebrate a birthday, we had such a wonderful dining experience tonight. Mel, our very accommodating & knowledgeable server helped us choose dishes based off dietary needs, crowd favs and particular cravings. Her warmth really made our evening memorable and would come back just to be served by her again! The ambience was chic too — comfortable lighting & seating. Also loved the aspect of seeing the kitchen from your table. Food: We had the wagyu gyzoza, aburi tuna salmon sushi, and balsamic chicken (split into 2 plates). Each meal had delicious sauces to bring out the simplicity & quality of the dish. Feedback: Id recommend all the dishes again (if only it was halal so I could bring friends & family). It’d be the cherry on top if we were offered a sweet treat on the house (for a special occasion, as other reviewers seem to have received) but we were stuffed anyways. I’d love to return & try the desserts next time! Thanks again :)

I wish Halal meat was supplied/available at this restaurant, I hope it’s something that can be considered in the future.

We had a lovely family dinner here, especially enjoying the beef short ribs, the picanah steak, and the baby lobster linguine (which is part of the restaurant’s summer menu). The beef short ribs were served almost like a meat loaf, but very soft and tender pulls to it. The lobster linguine was very creamy and rich, with grilled shrimp as the perfect accent to it. We also really enjoyed the Korean Fried Cauliflower as a perfectly sized appetizer for four people. A decent kick of spice in it, but not enough if you’re looking for something to really make you sweat. The pizookie was a great desert to cleanse our pallets too! Overall the service here was very pleasant and the food was served really fast. The only concern was that we could see that none of the cooks in the kitchen (visible through a glass window) were wearing hairnets. I’m curious as to whether this is not required of restaurants anymore - hoping your food doesn’t get served with hair on it!

The appetizers were awesome. Had the kimchi arancini and the oyster special. Every bite was a symphony. And new. Something wonderful for people who've eaten about everything, everywhere. A wonder. But the mains were very underwhelming. The Sable was perfectly cooked, yet underseasoned with a buerre blanc that was way too thin. The burger, which we were told would be the best of all time, wasn't. It was mediocre. The chocolate paradise was brown tasteless cardboard, but the pistachio ice cream was okay. The service was friendly, and prompt. But the upsell! At this price point, not fine dining, but casual fine, I have never been so pushed at before. Yes we wish to drink still water, it is our beverage of choice, charge us if you want. Don't ask me about cocktails twice and then push mocktails, and then three minutes later return ask if I want a tea or coffee. I ordered what I wanted. When I had a question I asked. And then even for dessert when I ordered a coffee asking didn't I want a specialty coffee! The upset brings the whole experience down. Atmosphere is lovely.

Nineteen at Mullen Drive ; Tonight we were seated as usual. Fifteen(15) minutes later, we had not been greeted, or offered water, or attended to in any way. Usually we go to a nice restaurant to receive things like food and water. We left after 15 minutes, and made it clear to the greeter on the way out that we were very unhappy with NO service. Essentially no response. Probably the thing to do at the minimum would be an apology about wasting our time. How much I long for the halcyon days of our youth where taking care of your customers actually meant something apart from making a buck. Instead, we went to Sabor downtown for a last minute booking. As per usual, the food was great and the service (thanks Emily and Michael) was excellent. Amazing how much good service can enhance a meal and how no service means, well, no meal at all. Tonight's experience at XIX was terrible. It doesn't matter how busy you are, it is a service driven industry and it takes very little time to say hello and offer water. Grossly disappointed!

Had to change my reservations a few times and they were so accommodating! The customer service was great besides the weird look I got when I ordered a pineapple margarita? My server Mark was great at first, and then was more attentive to other tables than ours. I wish I could have grabbed the name of the girl who was really helpful after that! She was so friendly and super personable. The food was definitely a 5/5! We ordered the Gull Valley Tomato Bruschetta and the only complaint I have is I would have loved more balsamic glaze. For dinner we had the Balsamic Chicken and the Hoisin Glazed Beef Short Ribs, both were amazing! The chicken was moist and the crispy Brussel sprouts were a great addition to the dish. The short rib was extremely tender, and full of flavour. The food also came out very quickly after our starter, which was great. Overall 4/5, really only took away was my experience with Mark. Will definitely come back!

Had the pleasure to have visited xix for our 15 yr wedding anniversary and this place did not disappoint. From the moment we went in and we were seated, we experienced great customer service. We started with an order of chicken wings… this things were packed loaded with meet and taste. This wing were not your average skinny wings and the blue cheese dip was perfect. We then went on to order my gnocchi and chicken blt for my wife. We both shared our meals as we like to experience both dishes, food was cooked to perfection and served hot. I definitely recommend these dishes. Customer service was great. Our waitress actually changed our napkins after we ate the chicken wings. This was great as they are packed with sauce and I love to eat with my hands. I also had to be careful with my clothes. That’s what I call paying attention to details and an experience level of waitressing. Can’t wait to come for another meal and try something different on the menu. Keep on eating and have fun. #chicosreviews76

The wait can be a tad lengthy, but the overall experience is top-notch. Dish breakdown: KFC: The Korean-style sauce shines, and the cauliflower is cooked to perfection. A must-try. Lavender Seed Lemonade: A bit too tart for my liking. The lavender seeds don't quite blend in, and the presentation could use a touch-up. I'd pass on this one. Short-rib: The rib meat is flawlessly prepared, boneless, with spot-on seasoning. The onion ring is just okay. Worth ordering. Medium Lamb Chops: Exceptional meat quality that's tender and succulent. The presentation is on point, though the vegetable is a tad bland. I'd suggest a cranberry sauce touch. Still, a thumbs up. Butter Cake: Disappointed to receive only half a scoop of ice cream. The presentation falls short, and the cake feels overly dense. I'd skip this one.

Food was delicious, but in my opinion not worth the money. I ordered the atlantic lobster ravioli. It came with 3 prawns and 6 ravioli. It had some kick which made it stand out, but I wish it came with more. I also ordered the crab cakes. It was crispy and delicate when you bit into it, but there were only 4 small pieces. The halibut was good. My friend said she would never order it again. She said she has had better elsewhere. The beef tataki was to die for! I would come here just for that! Lastly, we ordered the creme brulee. It had strawberries and some sort of chocolate. Yum!! What was a turn off was when I asked the server while I was waiting for my friend, what was on the summerlicious menu. She stated it is a mouth full and that she would let us both know when my friend arrived. I obviously did not like that. The presentation of the food was awesome, but still not worth what I paid.

Well, even though we lived in the area for 4 years, we never discovered Nineteen....until today, and thank the stars!!!!! My wife says she tried to get me to go for my birthday couple years ago, but I said no, cause I never heard of it......anyway....what a great afternoon! We tried a bit of everything...we just went to get out and sit in the sum and have a few.drinks....but WOW.....we had appys, wife had calamari, I had goyza dumplings which were done in a reduction of soy and olive oil..delish....the we realized there were mussels on menu we didn't see...ordered and shared...then the mains, wife had Mongolian rice bowl, I went for the goat cheese tenderloin.. Absolutely fabulous! We are going back for brunch on Sunday.....so I'll post again for that....get to Nineteen, great food...SUPPORT LOCAL EDMONTON RESTAURANTS

Overall, the food was okay-good. We started with the Ahi Tuna Twist and Beef Tenderloin Tataki which were both unique and flavourful. Would recommend! We also had the Aburi-Style Pressed Salmon Sushi, but it was bland compared to other restaurants that make their own versions. Next we had the Baby Lobster Ravioli, Scallop Frekkeh, and the Sablefish mains. All of them were okay but none of the dishes really stood out for us. Although not bad, it was a very expensive meal and the food was just not worth it for us to come back.

Worst service I've seen in a while. 0 stars. My wife and I had a 9PM reservation for my birthday. They sat us on the patio and not a single server greeted us, offered a water, NOTHING. The server in no possible way could not have seen us at our table, but continued to straight up ignore us. Took time to do 2 group photos for another table right next to us. "Let's do 1 with flash now!"... cleared every one's plates grabbed their bills checked on the other 4 tables around us and then continues to ignore my wife and I. At 9:18, we had had enough and finally stood up and walked out. I will never go back or recommend this place to anyone which is a shame, because I had high expectations. Now we know. 0 stars if possible.

It was our first time trying this restaurant. Overall, it was suitable, but not particularly special. The menu is safe and pretty straight forward. The food was tasty for the most part, but again, not particularly memorable. Ultimately, this restaurant has potential, but it’s pretty by the numbers and nothing to write home about. We will likely not be back. Not because it was terrible by any means, but more for the fact that it’s rather generic and quite common. Cactus Club, Earls, or Joey offer a similar safe “by the numbers” experience. The service was quite good on a more positive note. Summary: Not bad, not phenomenal.

We love coming here. Never been disappointed with the food. It is very delicious and presentation is amazing. Staff is very friendly and polite. They also change their menu time to time. Love it from brunch to dinner. The only thing is, i wish they add a bit more meat to their eggs benny (short rib or crab). It is sooo good, just wish there was a bit more of that goodiness on a plate. We highly recommend XIX Nineteen.

The food was just OK, but my star rating is mainly based on how we were treated. We made a reservation for 6 o'clock on mothers day with no issues. When we arrived and were sat down, the hostess then told us that because there was a reservation at 745, we needed to vacate our table by 715-730. This was not disclosed to us on the phone. By the time out main courses arrived, we only had about 30 minutes until the next reservation. We felt too rushed to even order deserts or coffee, despite there being at least 6 tables open. Tables that had been vacant for an hour. Will not be returning to either location.

Honestly, the best meals were the appetizers. The salad I got was over priced at ~$22 and it wasn't a large salad and the chicken was flavourless even with the sauce it was smothered in. The steak my friend ordered was cooked more than what she requested and the taste was not up to par with how much the meal costed. The best things we probably got were the Báhn Mì buns and other appetizers. But overall with the cost to ratio and tastiness, I would say I wouldn't go again.

XIX has a fantastic Sunday brunch that we've visited about 5 times over the last year. I really enjoy their happy hour for brunch. The avocado toast is amazing with poached eggs and a side of smoked salmon. The lattes and mimosas are a great addition to your breakfast. Last time we split a cinnamon bun (they are massive!). Definitely make reservations if you are a larger party. We've walked in as two and have been seated quickly.

Enjoyed our meal here. They had $2 a shuck oysters which were delicious. Shared a rather expensive Caesar salad but I guess it did include prawns. My wife had the short ribs and they were generous. I got the burger and it was one of the best I’ve had this year. Beer selection was good. Cocktails were delicious but also rather expensive. I hope they continue to have the oysters because I’d come back just for those.

Went for dinner with friends, the atmosphere was great and so was the service. We ordered a few dishes to share. For starters we had baked brie, ahi tuna twist and beef tenderloin tataki were all really good. For the mains kurobuta pork belly and scallops and Chimichurri picanha steak. The pork belly was not particularly flavorful however the scallops and the rest of the dish were delicious. The steak had lots of flavor and truffled mashed potatoes were amazing. Desserts did not disappoint. Creme brule, butter cake and bread pudding.

At this fine eatery, top-notch service is a given. The Korean Fried Cauliflower, or "KFC," made veggies cool again. My fellow diners devoured Ginger Beef like it was going extinct, and the Atlantic Lobster Ravioli was a shellfish-lover's dream. But alas, the Tuna Poke Bowl took an odd turn, partnering with instant noodles style side dish and stealing the tuna's limelight. And the desserts? A bittersweet ending to a mostly delicious journey. Perfection eludes us all, but hey, at least we had the "KFC"!

Service at Ninteen finds a balance between casual and fine dining, our waiter was attentive and conversational. When we ordered appetisers they added an additional item to each order to match the number of people at our table which was a nice option. Appetisers were creative but not overly impressive. Main courses were the highlight of our dining experience at Nineteen, Lamb shank and Lobster Ravioli are both incredible. The salad options are also delicious. The Desserts at Nineteen are creative and will plated, save room for dessert!

My company's Finance Team won a contest (my deals helped get us the win)and we won this lovely high end dinner experience. The food was amazing, the gentleman serving us was also very friendly and even got me a tide pen after another manager (who really wasn't supposed to even be there) clumsily spilled his wine on me. I had the lamb and some dessert and it was wonderful.

Amazing experience overall. Food was amazing and experience was great too. The Ahi tuna twists that we had was especially outstanding but the rest of the food was great as well. The only thing that was a little bit of a let down was the crab cakes. It turned out with a little less seasoning then I expected and the puree did not have as much taste as I thought it would. Overall great experience however and would definitely visit again

Love this place!!! It has a great restaurant, fantastic bar side and wonderful patio (not ideal, but they have done the best they could given the location. Very comfy)!! The food is always on point, and so is the service.

Tera our server had incredible knowledge of each and every ingredient and was superb at attending to our table and the tables around us. Her recommendation of the beef short ribs turned out to be amazing as they were cooked as fall off the bone as you could imagine. Practically melted on my fork and in my mouth. Had a great anniversary there. Creme brulee was my girlfriends favourite part.

A lovely restaurant with very good food. The spicy octopus salad was amazing, the octopus tender and not at all rubbery. The service was adequate but seemed perfunctory, not quite what I would expect for a place of this caliber. The ahi tuna appetizer was ok, I felt like the tuna was excellent by itself. When eaten together with the noodles, its flavor and texture got lost.

A great place for a fine meal! I had the bone marrow and the rack of lamb, both were well seasoned and cooked just right. My friend also enjoyed their food. Price is comparable to other higher end restaurants. It is worth noting that it is a louder restaurant with background music and many people talking. If you are looking for a serene atmosphere, this is not it.

A nice place for a casual or upscale brunch. Ordered the 5 spice Bao Benny with back bacon. While it was delicious, the plating was a bit careless. The second egg is not visible in the picture as the back bacon was put on top of it. Service was good and decor comfortable. Warrants a return visit in the future

Atlantic Lobster Ravioli

Began with old fashion cocktail, starter, main course till the dessert. My family only had two thumbs up for them. We were sat in front of the kitchen window and saw all the amazing actions from the chef! How can you miss this restaurant in Edmonton? We are on the road trip and we will be back soon!

Chef Andrew Fung continues to amaze. Creativity and more. Compliments to a NAIT (fantastic culinary program) alumni. Truly enjoyed a wonderful evening. Looking forward to more wonderful times. Have to say this is one of the best on consistently exceptional dining experience in Edmonton, Alberta. A true 5 star gem. A must.as a.local or visitor.

The restaurant has lots of tables and space is good. Service is nice. You could book reservation for brunch. I tried the crab cake bennies. It tastes good. The grilled bao is soft. Surprisingly it's great with he poached eggs. Price is decent and the portion is good.

We had the pleasure of having dinner at the Terwillegar location tonight! The food was wonderful, and we very much enjoyed the atmosphere of the Lounge. Our server, Trinity, was astounding - friendly and personable! We will definitely be back!

Second time at this restaurant (first time at this location.) Went for the Pichana steak this time around; first bite I had to sit in silence and Enjoy it. Very impressed by how tender and flavourful this dish was. The bread, greens & fries was a perfect compliment.

Brunch here is excellent. Slightly on the higher side for prices but the food is excellent. I NG or the braised beef Benny and it was done very well. Potatos were buttery and fluffy, the beef was tender and full of flavor. Our server was pleasant and prompt. The dining room is very modern and spacious. Also have a patio. Would recommend.

Great place for brunch. Service and food were excellent. However the pancakes were hard and dry. The server was polite and gave us an alternate meal of scrambled eggs, bacon and fruit for free. The special cake with strawberry coulis was fantastic too. Definitely will come back again!

We visited this place for one of our brunches. And the over all experience was okayish. The food was decent but wasn’t the greatest. It looked great though. Service was a little slow considering there wasn’t much crowd that day. Also tried a few drinks but those were equally disappointing. 3/5 is the max i would say. More

Food was excellent, and the service was great. They were very attentive without being overbearing. The atmosphere was very cozy. We went for our anniversary and had a wonderful time.

Great ambiance, were able to get us in last minute, and were willing to accommodate my request to substitute the pasta sauce due to it containing an ingredient I don't eat (beef). ♥ Dishes shown in photos: GULL VALLEY TOMATO BRUSCHETTA WAGYU BEEF RICOTTA GNOCCHI (sauce substituted) KUROBUTA PORK BELLY & SCALLOPS

There’s a reason they’ve been open a decade! The food is consistently delicious. It’s very pricey but they don’t seem to have issues filling the seats, and you get what you pay for. Perfect spot for a special occasion. You can dress up or go smart casual and you’ll fit in either way. Excellent service as well.

Consistent quality and upkeep of menu to bring new taste experiences to their customers! Book ahead, was lucky to get a table at lounge area on a Friday night! Last but not least, must try the cocktails (don’t miss the old fashion!)

Our server, Scott, explained how cultured the chef was and how many places around the world that he'd trained and the flavors he applied to the dishes. Wow! Just wow! The food was absolutely incredible. The prices are definitely on the higher side, but you understand this as soon as you take your first bite.

Had an amazing brunch! The breakfast BLT was fantastic. Our server Olivia was so friendly and was great at checking in to see how we were doing. Overall great experience!

Excellent food and stellar service. Love the art, ambience and inspired menu including the cocktails. Definitely try the ahi tuna twists for an appetizer, and the warm butter cake is your own piece of heaven. The menu changes seasonally so be sure to ask about the specials and try the new additions.

Amazing dinner from start to finish. Had the bang bang prawns to start, the beef tenderloin as a main, and the butter cake. The main was fantastic, amazing cook on the tenderloin and such a great combination of flavours. Excellent service too.

Took parents for mother's day and father's day meal. Waiter, Gary, was good. Meals, dessert and drinks were good. Only complaint would be the carrots were too al dente (hard). I had to use my steak knife on them and not on my steak which was perfect.

Service was a 10/10 but food was a 2/10 at best. $90 for burger, flatbread & ravioli. For the price the expectations were not met. Burger was dry and cold, flat bread was well done & tasted extra crispy. Ravioli was almost tasteless and no I don’t have Covid. Overpriced & overhyped sorry to say.

Elegance and style meets you at this upscale steak house. With lounge, restraunt, and patio parking you might still have a struggle getting a table because this place is phenomenal. The steaks are cooked perfectly and melt in your mouth delicious. Try the wagu beef gyoza for sure to start. More

Wow! I thought this would just be another place like Earls but I was pleasantly surprised. We loved everything from the drinks to the food to the service. Everything I had was cooked so perfectly. We were in and out very quickly as well. What a great place. We will definitely be back! More

Great restaurant, the service was great… i also tried sablefish. Not my favorite, but the overall evening was amazing.

One of the best old fashioned's I've tried! Parking was ample, the location was easy to find. Service was fine; not great, but not bad either. One drawback was the volume of the restaurant. It was incredibly loud inside and took away from the experience for me.

Got a birthday dinner last night and the food was fantastic! Absolutely amazing with lot of twist and tasty between western and Asian taste. Only thing keep us from 5 stars, we were surprised is 4" cake we bought cost us $30 extra charge for cutting the cake.

My first time was an absolute 5-Star experience! Our server, and the support bartender, were amazing. The XIX Old Fashioned was fantastic. We only tried 3 appetizers, but there were great, especially the Tuna Twists! 100% would return and would recommend!

When we visited, the music in the lounge was too loud for a decent conversation. The risotto had a bitter taste. I couldn't eat it. The server removed it from our bill. The server was very nice.

Busy & Popular place. Make sure to make a reservation in advance. Their appetizer & main course meal were good. all staff were friendly. I was surprised how loud it actually was in the dining room but overall good, fun and friendly atmosphere.

Best barbque on a lazy Sunday afternoon. XIX Terwilligar never disappoints and today was no exception. Order 2 XIX Cheeseburgers for $10 each. Made one a double for $6 more. Fresh hothouse tomatoes, cheddar cheese and all the fixings make

We enjoyed a Spanish wine tasting with spanish influenced tapas curated through Vines Wine merchants. 6 wines paired with 6 tapas. We tried things we would never have ordered on our own. The execution of the food from the kitchen and the

Really enjoyed our dinner tonight. Started with twisted tuna, had a salad and finished with the pizookie. All were excellent. The seared tuna was so fresh and tasty. So excited about dessert that I forgot to take a picture.

With three of us going at lunch time we were in and out in an hour. We ordered drinks, appetizer, main course and dessert. Excellent service and then rewarded with excellent food made this a truly enjoyable experience.

Delicious cinnamon bun!! Would definitely order it again. I had the beef short rib benny and was a little disappointed. The beef was tasty but the eggs & sauce weren’t as flavorful as I had hoped. The bao seemed a

Food is underwhelming. Oysters Rockefeller was fishy. Bison tartare was mixed with sweet pickles so that’s all you taste. Overall disappointing as I remember this place as innovative and delicious!

Great brunch and vibe! We had the avocado toast w/ poached eggs and the eggs benedict. Everything was delicious, our server was attentive and the vibe was welcoming. Recommended! More

Had veal chop and duck breast for main. Really good. The bone marrow was a bit too sweet for my taste tho. Will try some other items on the many next time. Starts getting busy at 6pm.

Always a good meal. This time we sat in the lounge 6+ people working, the service was excellent.

Went here on a tip from friends, Happy hour in the lounge. Food was amazing, if you go earlier, its quieter. Loved the Calamari and Flat bread!! Will definitely go back!

When my friends warned against going here, I didn't believe them. I wish I listened to them and went somewhere else. Their food truly looked better than tasted...

Such a great restaurant. They have great menu and everything is cooked and presented in a perfection way

Fantastic dining experience. From the service to the food, we loved the entire experience. Congratulations XIX!! More

Delicious food! Best avocado toast I've ever had. Very fresh! Server was inattentive and slow.

Everything we had was delicious, will definitely be back to try more of the menu!
