    We enjoyed the Sunday British Dinner. The beef was juicy and flavorful, the potatoes were deliciously crunchy, the vegetables were tasty and the Yorkshire pudding was outstanding. The horseradish and gravy were great on the side. It made for a delicious meal. To top it off, we all had the Sticky Toffee pudding, which was as good as it gets. If there was nothing else I liked on the menu, I would go back just for the Sticky Pudding. It was that good. Our server, Jane was very attentive and efficient. The whole experience was great.

    Everything was great! One thing I would recommend to the restaurant however is not taking reservations at 1:00 if that’s the time you close, especially if you are going to make your guests feel rushed. We were unaware of this when we made the reservation and it was a little awkward.

    Brunch food was mediocre. There were many underseasoned components, and the eggs were raw on top while being overcooked underneath. The chef doing the plating in full view of the dining room was using his bare hands the whole time to touch all the food, including mixing salads with his bare hands and plating without utensils or gloves. We didn’t see him wash his hands the whole time. That was a turnoff. The service and ambience were very nice. The coffee was good. But overall it was a disappointing brunch experience for such a highly rated restaurant.

    Incredible food and service. Beef tartare was fresh and flavourful best I've had. Scallop crudo was a burst of flavour. Ribeye steak was cooked to perfection. Heirloom carrots were delicious and the mushroom side was amazing. For dessert the sticky toffee pudding was warm and sweet as expected. Makes for a great special date night out!

    Went for brunch and everything was wonderful - the drinks, the food (avo hash browns, steak tartare) the service and the ambiance. Would highly recommend and will return when I'm in the area.

    We were in the area for a weekend getaway and decided to check them out last minute for dinner. Really enjoyed the steak and accompanying sides and they had a great cocktail list. Great ambience and an overall relaxing meal. We enjoyed it so much that we decided to come back and check out their Sunday brunch, which also did not disappoint. Would definitely recommend!

    This is absolutely our favorite place to go for a special occasion dinner, or an incredible cocktail, or even a quick lunch with our kid. The service is friendly and considerate and the environment is somehow perfect for every visit. We will forever compare all establishments against the Common Stove and find that we really should just come back to the Stove each time!
