Tent Kitchen + Wine Bar — Restaurant in Ramara Township

The food here is SO good - a MUST TRY dining experience. Any one who rates this place low has taste bud issues

Chef Dave takes great care with all the items on the menu and the ingredients are fresh! The quality of the food rivals some of the fine restaurants in downtown Toronto! His wife is also a super friendly host!

We've experienced the following menu items (and probably others that I forgot about) and ALL have been delicious (note the menu changes regularly so you may not see some of the below when you visit): Focaccia bread (freshly baked and delicious) Butternut squash soup Crispy wings (crowd favorite!) Tent salad Fried calamari and shrimp (so crispy and tasty!) Seafood linguine (amazing - we always order at this dish if it's on the menu!) Tent ravioli (really good!) Country carbonara (yum!) Tent burger Cornish hen Fried chicken sandwich (fried to perfection) Fish and chips Braised lamb bowl (wonderful flavors) Seared haddock Prime rib sandwich Jerk chicken (this was probably the least favorite because we were expecting something else. The dish was a shredded chicken without any jerk flavor at all - there was no spice either - don't know if this is because they tamed the jerk flavors down for the local clientele)

Also to note, their fries and home fries are fresh cut and super tasty!

The only time we've been disappointed is when they were fully booked on Valentine's as we didn't book on time and couldn't get the 3 course meal :( My wife was so disappointed, hopefully Chef Dave will bring some lobster ravioli and molten chocolate cake back soon so we can try it!

We have already eaten here so many times (both takeout and dine in) as you can see from the list above in the past 6 months - the food is that good! For take-out, the food is well packaged in tin foil containers (not styrofoam)

The restaurant needs a bit of work on the outside as it doesn't do the food justice! Note: the parking lot is a bit awkward with a raised curb in the middle of the lot where there may be have been old old gas...

Three times in a row. Ordered well before. Never on time. Always late so frustrating. Good food. But terrible customer service. Every single time. At least 15 minutes late. It's as if they wait until I am here to cook it. What the heck is the point of ordering ahead. Way too pricey for this community. Last time for me. Wasting people's time is not good when you are trying to gain new customers. Very disappointing.

EDIT TO YOUR REPLY!

I order food for pick up and unlike you I arrive and RESPECT Peoples time. I do not want to wait another 35 minutes when I am there. You told my wife 2 minutes. She wasn't fine with it. What was she suppose to say though no? Come on! Terrible reply. I called at 515 pm for a 645 pickup. The lady on the phone said we can't do it until 630..so I was even kind enough to say I will come at 645. This was not the first time. Every single time I pre order you wait until I am there. What is the point of that????. I mine as well just show up. But don't worry. I won't again. Especially after your false and rude reply. Don't make it look like you were not even close to being in the wrong. I wrote this because it is a multiple occurrence. If it is not late you forget something in our order. If someone says they will pick up at a certain time then you should honor that. If the customer is late and their food is soggy that is their fault. Thanks for Making the...

Dining at Tent is a unique and special experience. In the Orillia area, the food is in a league of it’s own. I’ve eaten here three times, always for brunch. It’s not an overstatement to say that each time the meal has been damn near close to perfect.

The store itself is seriously deceptive, the restaurant looks like it was formerly a gas station and it’s in the country on a random stretch of road. It almost feels intentional afterwards, like they wanted to throw you off before blowing you away.

It always starts with the bread knots, like a complimentary basket of bread, expect these are donut-like, and some of the best pastries I’ve ever had. Who puts this level of care into a starter that is usually an afterthought? But this is what Tent does, every single ingredient in every dish is prepared with meticulous care. They are clearly pouring in everything they have back in the kitchen. The burger I had today was among the 2 or 3 best I’ve had in my life (the bacon jam put it over the top).

By far, this is the best restaurant north of Toronto I’ve been to. It doesn’t seem to make sense that it exists but I am...
