  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for happy hour
Rein Osteria is an award-winning steak and seafood house with a classic American menu to suit all tastes. The menu also features amazing appetizers, salads, and coastal pastas to complement our wide selection of steaks, chops, seafoods and amazing sharable plates. The locale is modeled after the great grills of New York and The Hamptons offering beautiful views of the Marjorie Reservoir, vaulted ceilings, and a rustic natural elegance.

Our philosophy is simple. We wanted to create a place where our guests and co-workers are happy to be. Our food is procured locally as much as possible, and our culinary mantra is to buy good products and treat them with respect. This mantra is also reflected in our service model. We aren’t a stuffy “fine dining” restaurant, and we want all our guests to feel comfortable and spoiled when dining with us.

    We hadn't been to Rein since it first opened and remembered liking it, so went for my husband's birthday dinner with our adult son. Had a great meal, loved the ambiance and decor, had a great server, Tessa, was perfectly attentive and helpful, keeping our water refilled and letting us know what was happening next, suggesting I order a half salad (she was right!). Cocktails were delicious (I had Purple Rein), timing of meal delivery was just right, and food was delicious. I ordered seared tuna and could tell it would be something I will get a craving for later. We were looking forward to dessert and weren't disappointed, sticky toffee pudding (one of my very favorites) was yummy with salted caramel gelato. We look forward to returning with our other adult son and his bride next time they visit. Great evening all around!

    Food was great, servers were sweet but they didn't have enough help on an admittedly surprising busy Wednesday night (with horrible weather).

    What a great restaurant! The decor and finishing touches are beautiful, including the textured water glasses that really elevated the table top The hostess/bar person/wait person was wonderful and very engaging. Our food was delicious and the Xtra crispy fries were perfect. I can't wait to go back.

    Busy night for Valentine’s Day. Didn’t see a waitress for 25 minutes. After initial wait, service was good. Restaurant a little cold and loud but food was very good.

    Always have a great experience at Rein. Our server, Mateo, suggested the Waygu burger and it did not disappoint. The Buccatini Carbonara was also amazing as were the espresso martinis. The ambience is great, service awesome and will be back very soon.
