Elixir Bistro is a Belmont Village French bistro led by chef-owner Pirooz Jafari, whose path runs from Toronto to Galt/Cambridge and now Kitchener. The current menu leans on Confit de Canard, Souris d'Agneau, Escargot, Coquilles St Jacques, a vintage wine list, and a reservation-led room for date nights and special dinners.

TWH Social is a downtown Kitchener hotel bistro for polished comfort: braised short rib, steak frites, brunch plates, shared starters, and a real Wine Wednesday move.
