The Kitchen American Bistro

This place is underrated! Excellent customer service and amazing views of the river for the outdoor patio. The brunch was a hit for us! We ordered the smashed cheese burger and cauliflower dish, both were flavorful. I would highly recommend! The cauliflower flower dosh had so many flavors. Fresh herbs are also a hit. Also the fries were delicious . We definitely will visit here again soon.

First time here and it was a great experience. I’m surprised they weren’t busier. Most of the people there when we came in were in big groups and looked like they were coming from after work. The staff are pretty warm and friendly. I’m also surprised at how fast food comes. Everything we ordered was pretty great. The carrots are surprising and a kind of signature dish for them from what I understand from our server. They use unique spices and I really like the caramelization on each chunk, and having them with the whipped feta. The meat skewers we were told just came on the menu the day we came in. These had a great flavour to them, on the sweet side. It’s maybe just not my personal preference but the meat is on the chewier side and also quite fatty. The crab fried rice was excellent, and I appreciate how fresh and flavourful the crab chunks were. It was a good amount of crab. My one comment is that they could have toned down the citrus. I love crab so if that was more balanced, it would have been my favourite. The mussels were pretty big and were cooked well. The sauce was nice to have with some focaccia. I would have preferred a softer bread to soak up the sauce because the focaccia does get pretty tough specially around the crust.

Food was good but not great. The blackened sandwich we ordered unfortunately had good presentation but the blackened portions tasted a bit like. . . Charcoal. And the flavor overwhelmed the other flavors on the sandwich. Fried chicken sandwich was good. Drinks were good, service was quick and employees very friendly and responsive. Right on the river with great views and outside seating. If you are staying in the area, a good spot for lunch.

The Kitchen American Bistro has a modern vibe and a great location right by the river with beautiful views. We had dinner there and ordered the crispy cod, shrimp a la plancha, and a couple of cocktails. The cod was wrapped in kataifi (thin, crispy noodles) instead of the usual batter, which made it perfectly crispy on the outside while keeping the fish inside tender and juicy. The shrimp was cooked nicely too, though the seasoning was a bit on the salty side. I’d definitely recommend the crispy cod—it was a standout! Overall, it was a really enjoyable dinner with good cocktails and a great atmosphere.

Their patio has a wonderful view and their waitresses are very friendly and awesome! We enjoyed everything we ordered, but nothing too special. Their interior design was nice too. I give them 4-star because although there were several seats available in the patio they had us wait for 40 minutes and we didn’t understand why!

Amazing food and fun chill vibes. We came for brunch and the food was amazing. I had the southern fried chicken sandwich (forgot to take a picture) but the steak and the Turkish eggs were 10/10 . The waiter was friendly and attentive! Will be coming back soon! Also, family friendly if you want to come with your kids.

The view is great we had a windows seat and I always wanted to eat along the river this is a great breakfast spot! They even have mock tails which we got! Everything was perfect. They have an outside patio area that over looks the river. We wanted to sit inside window seat bc we were going to be in the sun all day anyways. Thank you Veins for making our visit memorable and gave great service.

My friends and I, loved this place. We enjoyed a wonderful view, food was delicious and the staff was very friendly. Kyle B. and the Argentinian waiter were indeed our favorite people. They made our experience feel welcoming and fun, also giving the perfect suggestion for food.
