“ Roasted vegetables sandwich with Thai coconut soup. Seriously delicious and very reasonable prices. Inside is funky atmosphere. ”
“ A True Hidden Gem! Hole in the Wall served us the best meal of our Nova Scotia road trip. The flank steak was absolute perfection—juicy, tender, and full of flavor. The Thai peanut bowl was fresh, exciting, and beautifully balanced. On top of the amazing food, the staff were warm and welcoming, and the atmosphere was relaxed and cozy. Even with all the lobster and local favorites we tried, this place stood out. Don’t miss it! ”
“ I have eaten several times at the Hole In The Wall Restaurant. We have sat on the patio, dined indoors and ordered takeout. I tend to order the gluten-free fungi pizza because it is absolutely amazing. The best gluten-free pizza I have ever had. However, I have also had or dined with people having and tried their food: the pad Thai, cauliflower and Gruyere soup, Caesar salad and the chicken pesto sandwich, their lemon dessert and creme brulee. Favourite waitress is Sue who adds to the dining experience with her exuberant personality. All of the wait staff are friendly and informative. The atmosphere is great; there are cozy blankets for the patio area & the service is quick & attentive. I particularly enjoy the chalk board menu, which is very well executed. ”
“ Absolute gem. Stellar food, great service! Lasagna tasted like authentic Italian cuisine. Schwarma bowl was fantastic as well. Tasty seafood chowder. Onion and garlic dip was amazing. ”
“ My wife and I had a wonderful dinner at The Hole in the Wall Restaurant. We started with Aperol Spritzes, and we both thoroughly enjoyed our main courses; I had the braised beef, and my wife had the seafood linguini. The service was exceptional, especially from Mary, who offered great suggestions and was very knowledgeable about the feature menu. We were also delighted when Deborah, the owner, stopped by our table to check in on us. Thank you for a truly memorable evening! ”
“ Limited options for lunch. Probably would be more during summer. But whatever we had were top notch. Good ambience in patio and service was also excellent. Will repeat during summer ”
“ I have nothing bad to say about this place! My husband and I were here for brunch on a Sunday afternoon when driving through Windsor. We loved each thing we ordered and shared. Had two glasses and a reusable glass bottle of cold water, that was exchanged when we finished the first. Fast service and attentive. I started with a cafe amaretto and we shared the lobster dip. It came with salted rice crackers and delicious bread. I asked about the salmon eggs Benedict if there was a chance I could get it dressed more as their salmon crepe (adding cream cheese) and it was amazing. My husband got the pesto chicken sandwich and they offered the full and it was also a great choice! I love pesto and it had such a nice soft, smoky taste from the bacon. Both our dishes came with the potatoes and those were so good. Excellently seasoned and needed nothing else. We did have another order delivered to our table by another server who made a small mistake, but they were quick to fix it and everything was well timed. I would recommend this place, it is kid friendly and they have a nice little patio too! ”
“ An absolute hidden gem in this cute little town of Windsor! I had the flank steak salad and was shocked how good it was, the best food I tried in my Atlantic Canada road trip! The staff are super friendly, the purest Canadian vibe you can get, and the place is decorated beautifully with great attention to details. A must try if you’re in town or passing by! ”
