The Rushton

The sliders, yup very good turkey sliders. Lots of good food to choose from. The clubhouse is pretty tasty as well. Simple foods but they do it all well. Great service and atmosphere.
Patio is amazing in the warmer months. Highly recommend if you are in the area.

Loved this place! Came here yesterday at 12:30 pm for my birthday lunch and the ambience was so nice with the lights inside and the vibrant South American music playing. No distracting loud shouting from any guests which can sometimes happen on a Saturday we all had Americanos and one early grey tea. Very good. And brother had the two fish tacos which he said were very filling after clearing the plate. Dad has the chicken clubhouse which comes on the baguette bread and the fries he said were the best he’s had. The waitress also said that the clubhouse was top three seller. And I had the special omelette of the day with half sweet potato fries and garden salad. I was full after only half the meal. So good ! Waitress was very friendly. We never felt rushed Great window seats and overall amazing food that will bring us back as regulars.

We ordered a burger and we were disappointed because the burger was extremely burnt. Great ambiance though. Would just come back for drinks.

I love this place especially at night! I order my usual food which is the mini Turkey Burgers and it’s the best! Servers are very pleasant, they have best cozy patio, great beer selection and good music!

This place was ok… I got the veg sandwich which seemed fine but the salad looked like it was straight out of a ‘mixed greens’ bag at the grocery store and the dressing was odd, I had a few bites and left it. I ate the entire sandwich but now it’s been a few hours and I’m not feeling very well at all. All signs point to this place :(

The place is over-​priced and it took almost 45 minutes to get our food. The service was ok but I still don’t recommend this restaurant

Today was our second time dining at The Rushton and let me say, it was quite a nice time! We sat on their patio (as we did last time a few weeks ago) in a nice shady spot near the kitchen.
Perhaps sitting closer to the sun could have been nice.
Anyhow, we ordered a few beers and the fried calamari to start. The calamari was nothing special, but was consistent with the previous time we had ordered it. It definitely tasted like calamari!
I decided to get the «Veggie Burger» for my main dish and, let me tell you, it was very impressive a dish! It tasted like yams though the menu said it was made out of green lentils and black beans, but I truly did not care about this inconsistency because it was so darn great. Somehow, my goat cheese was forgotten but the waiter quickly corrected this mistake. ⁹⁄₁₀ for being so attentive!
About halfway through our delicious entrees we noticed a woman and her friend come out to the patio. She had crutches, which I thought was interesting.
My date ordered the «Spinach Salad» which came with garden fresh beets, spinach, and a few other healthy things including our beloved goat cheese. He thought it was good, but was rather disappointed to find out that a dish advertised as a «quinoa salad» was only lightly sprinkled with quinoa… A bit chincy if you ask me. Despite this downfall, he did rave about those garden fresh beets which came in a red and yellow variety.
We noticed one of the waitresses had a tag sticking out of her shirt. ⁶⁄₁₀ for appearing presentable at all times.
When I went to use the facilities at the end of our meal, the young fellow behind the bar gave me the biggest smile I think I’ve ever received in my life. Thank you for brightening my day!
For a place called the Rushton, we didn’t feel very «rushed»! We believe the woman on crutches appreciates this, too. Get well soon.

My boyfriend and I had an outstanding experience at The Rushton for our one-​year anniversary. Our server was attentive and the food was prepared to perfection. I thoroughly enjoyed my ravioli dish and my boyfriend had the steak frites (I stole a few bites and it too was excellent). We shared a crème brûlée for dessert… yes, also delicious.
This is not the place to go if you are in a rush to eat (no pun intended). Our meal was well-​paced (about 15 – 25 minutes between each ‘course’ — drinks, bread, entrée and dessert) and despite eating a lot of food, neither of us felt overly full at the end of the meal.
I’ll definitely be visiting again! (Particularly to try the seafood platter which looked OUTSTANDING from the table next to us).

We had the best lunch recently. We shared a sea bass and a Rushton salad.
The sea bass was incredibly delicious.

I had the «worst» and expensive haircut in my life and I was not going to write about it but I am so sad and disappointed that I have decided to give this feed back.

Great food, with great taste, but i find the portions a bit to small, specially for the appetizers, they also have really high prices and in my opinion i could go somewhere else and eat better and cheaper.

It’s a great cozy place, amazing location, AWESOME staff but it’s too pricy…
MASSIVE tequila shots. Biggest shots i have ever seen in my life. You could probably use that shot glass as a tiny vase: S.
We had the sangria, white wine. Highly highly recommended — it was friggin delicious!!! The calamari we had were in some kind of sweet and spicy chili sauce, i didn’t like the sauce at all. It made the calamari soggy and it was so overpowering. Should have just gotten the regular deep fried ones :(.
I wouldn’t come here again unless it was the only place close enough to the salsa stage and it was raining.

Overall very good.
We got the warm mushroom salad which was very good and then we ordered sea food plater for 2 and it was so big that I would change the name at the menu to: sea food plater for 6 the bad thing is when you get such a big dish, something is missing…
But beside that very nice atmosphere :)

This place seems to be hit or miss. I have been a handful of times now. this past visit I ordered a salad I had loved the last time I was in the restaurant only this time it felt like the plate had been put together in too much of a rush. The warm mushroom salad had oily mushrooms an under dressed arugula.
We had made a reservation for 8:30, arrived 5 minutes early and were told we would be sat in 10 minutes. 10 minutes turned into an hour and 15 minutes! The server and hostess were very sweet and apologetic about the situation but I was disappointed that no manager came by to apologize.
Asides from the waiting forever fiasco the server was great. While I didn’t like my salad this time last time it really was delicious.
I had a bite of my boyfriends burger and fries it was perfectly cooked and the fries were crispy.
We ordered the maple chilli shrimp and the grille calamari to start– maple shrimp was surprisingly tasty! The sweet tomato sauce with eggplant and buffalo mozzarella was a unique combination. The calamari was nothing special.
Overall– Great atmosphere, sometimes great food, sometimes terribly long waits for tables that you’ve already reserved…

we live just up the road from the rushton restaurant and ate there countless times.
the food is straight forward, delicious and never dissapointed us.
the price is reasonable, you can get a great dinner for 2 in about $ 60 (no alcohol).

This was my second visit to The Rushton and I was there for lunch on the patio and I was left very disappointed and regretted my visit there.
Being a beautiful hot day took a table in the middle of the covered patio which I found not much of a great patio experience as the large heavy vinyl awning blocked a lot of light and the few signs warning you that you are being video taped felt a bit ghetto (though when I was there I did see a few really sketchy guys with overly gelled up hair and big blingy sunglasses).
I ordered the steak salad which was extremely disappointing. The steak was cooked to my liking (medium rare) and seasoned well, but the cut of meat was of poor quality and wasn’t sliced properly — it was sliced along the grain, not across, so the meat was extremely tough and chewy and had bits of sinew or gristle which I had to spit out. This should have been trimmed off. This was the second time I ordered this dish and I thought the first time was an oversight. This was really bad because I spent most of my lunch labourously chewing my steak and hardly taking to my friends.
The service was pretty slow too, as the simple orders at my table took more than an hour to arrive and it took a long time to find the waitress to get the bill.
I usually have my 3-​strike rule, but these were two really bad strikes and will not be coming back again!

Definitely recommend the poutine. It’s fancy (for poutine), but hawt-​damn is it ever tasty.
«pomme frites with shredded duck confit, creamy wild mushrooms, melted cheese and caramelized shallot jus»

The vibe and atmosphere was good.
Service was friendly.
The food… not so much. Some things are good, and some things are a total miss.
I had their fish fry… and was disappointed.
The halibut /​batter they used was under seasoned. If not for the Tartar sauce, i would have been tempted to send the fish back in order to express my displeasure.
Dessert was ok.
Don’t order the apple pie… the crust is tough and difficult to cut through.
Attention to details by the chefs could have made my dining experience different.

The Good:
— great vibe, atmosphere and great patio
— great staff and service
The Bad (only if you’re a vegetarian):
The description of the veggie burger «Home made spiced 10oz. patty of minced vegetables, green lentils and kidney beans served with tomato, onion, lettuce and a side of frites «
Minced to them must mean pureed, as the patty was just a weird wet paste that was formed into the shape of a burger and then.egh.DEEP FRIED. Also based on the yellow/​orange colour of the burger there is no way that green lentils were used. As someone who actually makes her own awesome veggie burgers all the time I do have to say this one was a bit sad. You shouldn’t have to deep fry it in order for it to hold its shape. It should be able to hold its own.
My friend didn’t really enjoy her grilled calamari, she said there was just too much going on in the plate and the calamari didn’t shine.

Our department had a work lunch there today.
There were 17 of us and we were lucky enough to sit on the patio.
We had a set menu but there was still enough to choose from.
I started with a salad … it was nice and fresh. I had steak and roasted potatoes as my main (I substituted the roasted potatoes for fries) … it was good but I found the serving small. For dessert, I had a chocolate and raspberry tartufo which was good.
The patio would be nice to people-​watch with a glass of wine.
