It was my first time at the Sheep's Head Bistro and not my last! The food was exquisite and the service was impeccable. I loved the small size of the restaurant and the atmosphere. My two sons had eaten there several times and kept telling my husband and I about it. We finally went (along with our sons) and we were not disappointed. I recommend this restaurant to anyone who is looking for food quality and excellent service. Thank you to the owner and the chef for a wonderful experience!

Went for a special dinner and we had Jen as a server. She was impeccable. Slight mix up with our food, everything was rectified immediately, the owner (I believe) came to talk to us immediately and they were incredibly accommodating and just wonderful overall. The food was amazing, pretty pricey but to be expected. Fast. Environment was more noisy with a large party but that’s not the bistro’s fault. Probably the best service and treatment I’ve ever gotten anywhere. Will be going back for the fall menu!

This place is truly special. Visited my partner in Cornwall for the first time and I feel so lucky that we found this place. The service from the owners is truly unmatched, you can tell how genuinely kind and passionate they are. The FOOD… oh my god. My only regret is I couldn’t try everything. We had the Donair bao buns as an appetizer, the duck confit burger, and the short rib. Every single thing was delicious - special shout out to the short rib that literally melts in your mouth. The COCKTAILS - you have to be kidding me. The owner offered us her special Pumpkin spice espresso martini creation - and I don’t care if it’s dramatic but it made me emotional with how insanely delicious it was. I couldn’t recommend a restaurant more - you will regret not trying it.

Absolutely amazing place and exceptional staff and probably the best food I've had by far. I've been to some exceptional places but this takes the cake. Can't wait to go back again. Also the drink selection is top notch and would recommend going there for that alone. Worth a splurge once In a while.

We have been wanting to stop in for a while now but are last minute people & it’s always been fully booked. We were happy to get a reservation for brunch over the long weekend, and we loved it! It’s a cozy space, very welcoming, fantastic friendly service, delicious food! Price was reasonable for 4 people, especially considering we had drinks & dessert, & taking into account the crazy pricing everywhere for everything lately! Ordered the burgers, eggs benny classic & the seafood chowder, all super yummy! The carrot cake is one of the absolute best we’ve had! Ever! We will definitely be back for dinner when we’re in the area again.

We began with their tomato soup which was absolutely delicious! My friends all enjoyed their meals. The piri piri was just okay for me, it was my first time having it. I probably wouldn't order it again, but there are plenty of other menu items I was interested in. The desserts were excellent. I will definitely be back and excited for the next meal.

From the moment we stepped into this restaurant, we knew we were in for something special. Nestled on a quiet corner across from the water, the place exudes a cozy and welcoming warmth, a reflection of the wonderful owners who make you feel like family from the first greeting. They are some of the kindest people weve had the pleasure of meeting. Every dish burst with flavor and was so delicious. They have a great selection of vegetrian dishes, which we really appreciated. One of the best meals weve had in a very long time and its definitely become one of our favourite restaurants. Also, the cocktails were out of this world! The dessert was a sweet finale that didn t disappoint. The Peanut Butter Chococale Cheesecake was decadent without being heavy, the perfect end to an already spectacular meal. Overall, this restaurant isn t just a place to eat it s an experience shaped by amazing food and even more incredible people. If you re looking for a place where you ll feel right at home and leave with a smile on your face, this is it. The owners hospitality is the heart of this restaurant, and it shines through in every detail. Highly recommended! Thank you so much Rizwan and Josée for such a special evening. Such a pleasure meeting you both! Tip: Grab a drink next door before or after dinner. You wont regret it!

A wonderful evening from start to finish. Food was amazing and flavourful. We had escargot to start they were tender and well seasoned in an amazing asiago blue cheese sauce. I chose the pan seared scallops cooked to perfection and melted like butter. They were accompanied by a light and bright ginger carrot puree . I added a ceaser salad with home made dressing, huge flakes of parmesan and crispy bacon on a bed of fresh romaine. I also sampled one of their signature cocktails The Blushing Sheep which was delicious with a hint of floral notes and a gorgeous pink hue! The service was top notch. We felt welcomed and taken care of from the moment we stepped inside! It was our first visit but definitely not our last!

Place is absolutely the best experience in the cornwall area. Our team was in town for a tradeshow last Wednesday night June 5th and needed a place to eat for dinner. Place was recommended by a local. Called and Riz (owner) answered the phone said yes can fit you on the patio. We arrived and soon after another few people from trade show and they moved table with ours and then 4 other people came in and they joined us and soon we had a group of 10 on the patio. Food was amazing nice specials menu and drink selections. wine is custom picked by the owner. Service was impeccable. I have never had a restaurant where the owner is so involved, and dedicated to there craft. It shows big time. We essentially had a private dinner event with the head chef/owner serving us and making us feel like family. Words do not say enough about our entire night. Riz and staff on behalf of the Entire Alltrade Equipment crew THANK YOU for a memorable night. I personally will be back. You cannot put a price on the experience. A must try for anyone traveling through or from the area that wants to have a refreshing customer experience.

Knew nothing about this spot...called last minute and as it turned out got VERY LUCKY to get a table for my wife and I (on her birthday). Cid was our waiter. Super fella, great recommendations, from beer, to wine to mains and desert. Food was above fantastic!!! The owner Rizwan consumate gentleman and host greeted us and spent time discussing the dishes he and his team had developed. (Have I mentioned Cid?) LOL he kept the meal and evening flowing. In all seriousness the meal was out of this world (I will give you a hint: (gentle hint of hickory in the mashed potatoes) wow! Large portions, bursting with flavor, and quality! I am now a loyal follower and whenever I am in town will be darkening Rizwans doorstep. We didnt get a chance to enjoy their super cozy bar......but next time! Cid, Rizwan......THANK YOU GREAT MEAL-MEMORABLE EVENING ON THE BANKS OF THE ST.LAWRENCE!

They closed the venue to the public to take care of us and what a job they did! They were super efficient from start to finish. The food was beyond delicious.

Theres just nothing bad to say about Sheeps Head: the owners are the nicest, friendliest people, the food is incredible, and the prices, while high for the area, are more than reasonable for the quality. I just had the best steak of my life (*actually* blue rare!), and my partner loved the General Tao cauliflower. And dont sleep on the poke nachos, which features ahi tuna on fried wontons and cannot be missed. Sheeps Head is a well-deserved staple of the Cornwall area. Dont miss out.

Count Cornwall as a Gastronomic destination with Sheep s Head Bistro. Our host Rizwan went above and beyond to cater to every one of our senses. To see his passion, elevated the experience. The Old Fashioned was not only a cocktail, but a spectacle. My wife also loved their signature Blushing Sheep cocktail, which had no sheep parts whatsoever. The calamari was perfectly cooked and had this nice spicy aftertaste that lingered. The steak was amazing and the chicken Piri Piri was half a chicken! The Piri Piri sauce danced in your mouth like a Latin fiesta. The East Coast IPA came with an origin story on the label, coming to life as our host explained every symbolic imagery. We left with full stomachs, great memories and odly enough golf balls. Rizwan s passion was infused into the meal and made this a special night. Rufus du Sol in the background just added to the ambiance. I might drive from Montreal to do this again!

My husband and I tried Sheepshead for the first time last night and it blew us away! They have an excellent reputation and now I know exactly why. As soon as we walked in the owner greeted me by name, which is a really nice gesture. From there we were seated and given a really great experience. The owner took the time to talk to us about drink & food items, along with some history of the restaurant. From the mocktails, appetizer, main courses and dessert we were absolutely blown away. You can tell every single item is made to please. We will for sure be going more regularly. What a gem.

Great place with a small menu . I went for valentines with the girlfriend that evening . They had a special for superbowl Sunday (valentines Monday was booked up) . The special was risotto with arctic char, king crab and tiger shrimp. I remember the shrimp being great and not sure how the king crab was implemented (do they mix it into risotto,?), the arctic char was great, but the risotto was almost like the chef turned around to talk to someone while pouring the salt into the dish. I thought it was just mine , but as the girlfriend also ordered the same dish , she mentioned it was too salty, so I had to tell her I found that too. She ate 10% of it and I managed to get through 70% before the risotto sucked up all the water in my system. All the staff were great and quick with the drink and requests . As usual the everything other than the risotto was perfect , but unfortunately we picked the one dish that didnt turn out .... sadly on a valentines day dinner. I still gave it 4 of 5 only because I know how good this place is when the food is on point.

This restaurant is a must when visiting the Cornwall area. If you are looking for a place to take a romantic date, have dinner with friends/family, or just want your tastebuds rocked, this is the place. We travelled here from the US with some friends for a night out. This place did not disappoint. It is a short drive outside of Cornwall but it is 100% worth it. The food was absolutely amazing. The staff was very attentive. As a bonus the owner was there as well rounding and assuring everything was perfect. This extra attention to detail made for a wonderful atmosphere. We tried quite a few things on the menu from appetizers to desserts. Everything was cooked to perfection and delicious. Their drink menu had a lot of fun options as well. We were told that the menu here is seasonal and many items change so we will be back for sure to see whats next. This is a smaller restaurant with limited seating so I would highly recommend calling for reservations to assure you can dine in. You wont regret dining here.

Very nice place for a stop on the TO-MTL road. We were there on a Sunday lunchtime, brunch day. The menu offers a small selection of interesting dishes. The egg benedict was generous but a little too vinegary. The homemade fries were delicious but I would have liked a little greenery or fruit to counterbalance the saltiness of the plate. However, for the price, the portions are generous and the service is fast and friendly.

The team worked together to ensure we were comfortable and taken care of.

I had a BLT which sounds boring but it was the BEST BLT with with a twist I have ever eaten. They have a fun drink menu as well.

We had muscles, calamari and chowder as appetizers and our entrées included chicken two-ways, lobster roll and beef tartare served on bone marrow (which was actually an appetizer, but we couldnt resist and were not disappointed). Portion size was large. They have a great beer, wine and cocktail list, and was happy to see Eastern Ontario craft beer on tap. We ate inside as it was raining but they have a small patio with views of the Saint-Lawrence river which would be awesome on a sunny day. Service was excellent by all concerned. Washrooms were spotless and proper cleansing techniques were evident all around. I highly recommend this restaurant and suggest reservations as there are only a small number of tables. Enjoy.

Group of 4 dined this evening at Sheeps Head Bistro. My first time there. Had reservations, were sat and ordered in no time. I ordered the sweet heat wings as an app and had the pork tacos. The wings were unbelievable and the tacos were a hit. Very warm atmosphere and service was top notch. Rurban pale ale and the old fashioned were tasty. Cant wait to go back!

There are treasures and then there are gems. This is both. Nestled a few minutes outside of Cornwall Sheeps Head Bistro punches above and beyond. The imagination, the product, the dining experience itself... You could eat here one hundred times and always get the same outcome. Amazing. Should you be looking for a memory, for your mouth or in the heart of someone you adore, check out Sheeps Head Bistro along the St. Lawrence Shore. (That good that you can rhyme one off.) Yours to enjoy. All you have to do is get yourself there.

Been there several times and never disappoints. The service is excellent and the food is magnificent. I have tried different meals including the lamb. Even though a spicy lamb is not a favorite of mine, this is was fantastic. Completely recommended. Just consider making a reservation, as the place gets full pretty fast (and its not very big in space).

Huge thanks to owner Rizwan & chef Lewis for a fantastic lunch at Marc Viau Mechanical. Rizwans generosity was by far superior with an all inclusive lunch compliments of Sheeps Head Bistro that included Beer, onion & cheese soup, fresh field greens salad & house balsamic dressing, hand cut fries alongside a pulled pork sandwich on a bun. Very much appreciated by the gang at Marc Viau Mechanical!!

I had the Brunch Poutine there. Let me tell you, that is an excellent way of screwing up a Poutine by putting a poached egg on top with maple syrup and hollandaise sauce. The cheese cake was excellent but for $11. Really guys, get serious. If you are going to offer me something, I should not have to ask the price...menus dont.

My wife and I were there last night and I was really not too impressed with the food given the reviews. It was our first time. Ceasar salad was 3 stars definitely. not worth the price paid for.. our server forgot all about us after food was served. The other server, awaiter cleared our plates and took care of our bill. So all in all food was okay but I do not see 5 star quality..

Wanted to check this place out as I had heard so many good things. My wife and I went for our wedding anniversary. Got the soup of the day, made with a garlic short rib which was so flavorful and full. Then, we both had the lobster and shrimp sandwich, which came on an amazing brioche bun and was seasoned beautifully. This place lived up to the hype. Excited to try their other dishes soon.
