The food was amazing! We had soup, salad, a shared appetizer of shrimp, scallops and calamari (which we usually aren’t fond of but this was wonderful). Ribs so tender that they fall off the bones. The beef tenderloin was Julia’s suggestion when I couldn’t decide and she was spot on! The music on the front porch for their welcome to summer patio event was an added bonus. The music inside was also very nice, not too loud and suited the ambience. The staff was attentive and friendly and we had a wonderful time. We like to try out different places for fine dining and this is defiantly a go back to place! The glass of port for our special evening was also a very nice close out to our meal. Thank you for making out 25th so special
A last minute booking for a business/corporate dinner on a Saturday evening. It was the perfect restaurant to accommodate our international guests. The service was excellent and the food amazing. The staff were very friendly, knowledgeable and excellent to work with. Chef Ryan took very good care of us – we will be back!! A gem tucked away in old north!
I came here for a friends birthday on, I believe, a Thursday night. We were the only people in the restaurant which was kind of nice. The old house is neat and the photos upstairs were fun. The mesh of everything was somewhat strange but we still had fun. The food I did not care for. Not being a big meat eater I ordered the squash soup and salad with pears and a honey mustard vinaigrette. The salad was soaked with dressing and the soup had hardly any flavour at all. I was really disappointed. My one friend had the lamb which was really undercooked but my friend that had the beef dish enjoyed hers. Cant say Id go back.
Let me begin by saying that as of August First, 2017 the Villa Cornelia is open with new owners and readers might disregard any comments before that date. My wife and I were visiting London Ontario and as a disclaimer, the house belonged to my aunt and uncle until 1986. We were greeted graciously, attended to attentively, fed almost extravagantly, this is not a microbrewery or German Restaurant, it is fine dining with a Canadian cuisine that uses locally sourced produce, bread, meats and fish. The building is an authentic 1892 Victorian town house appointed for entertaining. The owners have restored to the period.After a cocktail on the patio, an appetizer of gnocchi with bay scallop and shrimp, we were seated inside for dinner. I chose the Sous Vide Pork Ribs on goat cheese garlic mashed potato, honey carrot with cumin and pumpkin seed. My wife had the wilted spinach and goat cheese stuffed chicken breast served on garlic mashed with a duo of carrot and asparagus. Both were superb. For dessert, we had the blueberry sorbet, freshly made with an abundance of extra blueberries. The Villa Cornelia is modestly priced for the quality and service. The wine and beer selections are complete with something for each entree. The bar is well managed and stocked with some local rye, vodka and a selection of good whiskeys. I would highly recommend you try it and see if you share my sentiment.
One of the worst restaurants I’ve been to in this world. Food is disgusting, service is suspiciously weird. Dirty, old and stuffy space. Food, is, disgusting. Avoid avoid avoid.
Hidden Gem!!!. My wife and I were tired of the same old food chain restaurants so we decided to try something new. This is when we stumbled upon a quaint little restaurant we never heard of in the heart of downtown and were glad that we did! My wife ordered the steak dienne which looked fantastic and she enjoyed it very much. I ordered the half rack of lamb which was delicious. Both meals were very reasonably priced especially for such generous portions. The service was great as well, and we will definitely be back.
We went for an anniversary dinner during Londonliious. A limited menu was available which is standard for Londonlicious. My meal was salmon. It was placed on a questionable sauce. It was brown but supposed to be a dill cream sauce. My husband enjoyed his meal. The service was great, but there was only one other table she had to serve.
