I have been here twice now and it was yet another great experience tonight! Food is amazing — The Dill Pickle soup, salmon, and pierogies are my favourite (so far!). The lighting and music makes for a very relaxing atmosphere. Last time I was here for my birthday and there was a gentleman playing the saxophone — it was amazing! Having complementary GLUTEN FREE bread at the start is such an amazing thing with a gluten allergy, as well as the menu being fully gf as well. Truly my favourite place! I love coming here! Tonight, Maria was our server and she always approached us with her beautiful, friendly smile and continuously checked on us. We came to celebrate our engagement and she made sure to make our night special with complementary port wine.

I attended the continental treat fine bistro for their phantom of the opera theme and was very delighted by how much fun I had. I loved seeing so many people in cute outfits and masks, and the appetizers as well as the 3-course meals were really delicious. My server was Keshia and she was very friendly too

I visited here very randomly on my way back from a walk to the Muttart. I pass it every day but have never gone in and I didn't think the style of food would appeal to me. This place blew my expectations away. I had the dill soup and schnitzel and my friend had a Reuben. We also shared a black forest cake. Everything was fantastic and well-balanced. Also the potato salad! The service was really good too and I enjoyed talking with the server. He was knowledgeable and made good recommendations. Lastly, I liked the theme of the bathroom. (No spoilers) Already looking forward to going there again.

Service was fantastic, seated right away and service was top notch. Went for a lunch special, so good! Lost 1 star only because there were too many raisins in the apple strudel, almost more than apple.. Atmosphere was fantastic, great music, nice lighting. Lost 1 star because well, it wasn't luxurious. It was almost luxurious. Would I recommend YES, YES, YES! It's totally gluten free, but very delicious- I wish they sold the bread by the loaf! Yummy! 😍🥰

We went here for lunch and had the Garlic Prawns to start. The prawns were big and served with their GF bread. (One of the best gluten free breads I ve had.) We both had the soup and sandwich combo. I preferred the Reuben over the Chicken Schnitzel. We ve both had the dill pickle soup before (which is delicious) so for the soups we tried the French Onion (extra fee) and the Red Barszcz (polish borscht). We liked both and the GF croutons in the French Onion was good too. We ordered one combo with fries and the other with potato salad. Again both were really good. The fries were very fresh and crispy. The potato salad had egg and pickles which we enjoyed. We were extremely full as we were also served complimentary biscuits at the start. Love that all the food here is gluten free which removes a lot of the stress of eating out! Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free (celiac), nut-free (allergy)

My partner and I went for dinner here last night and it was absolutely marvelous. The restaurant itself was beautiful, with a lovely atmosphere. Our server, Keshia, was very attentive without being overbearing, and knowledgeable about the menu, but when unsure, was quick to find the answer. She was thoughtful in her suggestions and really just a pleasure. The food, the reason for the restaurant, was delicious, and mouth watering. The duck was cooked perfectly, the potato and sauerkraut soup was so unexpected and delicious and everything came out in a timely manner, not too quick, but we werent waiting too long for the next course. Overall a wonderful experience and highly recommended. Thank you for a lovely evening.

I dined on Saturday, October 19, 2024, when the Strathcona String Quartet was playing up front. Keisha looked after me to start, and suggested I write this review, but then Ayla swooped in and got the credit! I had the Pre-show set menu, consisting of: a cup of dill pickle soup; the pork schnitzel with mushroom sauce, SPAETZLE, and vegetable trio; and Black Forest cake for dessert. As usual, I had black coffee with the dessert. That coffee is SO GOOD, even when its not so (steaming) hot. I must say, though, looking back at the main course, the portions seem not as large in the SET MENU as a la carte.

Dont usually have anything to say about wait staff, but Keshia was the exception. It was more like being served by a family member with an atmosphere of warmth. Having said that, we dont go to restaurants a lot due to budget restraints, but here we are at the Continental Treat. We were attracted by the Quartet entertainment that night which was excellent. The dishes were 5 out of 5 which Keshia helped us to select and a big thanks for the Sauerkraut sample soups.

Wonderful to be able to order anything on the menu knowing that everything is gluten free. Did have a little bit of a strange interaction when we arrived at lunch time. The place was almost entirely empty, but we were asked if we had a reservation. When we said no, we were told they would try to fit us in. During our whole time there we only saw one other small group of people come in. Seemed like they had a strange attitude for a mostly empty restaurant.

What is a restaurant? A service? A place to eat? Is it just a business? Another cog within the clockwork an industry? Maybe all are partially true, however, I argue that none of those statements truly describe what a restaurant is. Continental Treat has taught me this. Continental Treat is an experience. A gift. To say my time in this bistro was enjoyable is an understatement. My time was bliss. I ate my soul and drank my heart. The table of which I was sat acted as a sanctum of pure ecstasy and peace as I indulged in the greatest food a gluten free environment could provide. It s worth noting my experience was not hindered by a stranger bringing food and taking away the memories that exist on an empty plate, no I m happy to say I left with a full stomach and a friend. Keshia was a true blessing among my experience with her kindness and considerate haste to maintain our table. Continental Treat isn t just a place to sit. Or even just a safe option for our celiac friends in the city. It is a wonderful spot for all. Continental Treat IS the definition of a restaurant. Thank you.

A much bigger location than their Whyte Ave location. Food is just as tasty. Service was great but I think they needed one extra person working. Also, not sure why, but we didnt get the gluten free garlic bread at the table that we got the first time we went to the Whyte Ave location only a few weeks earlier. Either way, food was enjoyed by all, including out of town family. They loved the dill pickle soup.

One of the best dining experiences one could have! A violin quartet played all evening long while we enjoyed a traditional European dinner. Keshia was an amazing server, very friendly and offered great recommendations. She also treated my Grandpa to a complimentary birthday Tiramisu while the violin quartet played happy birthday. Well done continental treat and Keshia

Highly recommended Vegetarian options: The vegetable medley was delicious And there were lots of choices for vegetarians Dietary restrictions: Caters for vegan, vegetarian and gluten free dietary restrictions. There was something for everyone Wheelchair accessibility: There was a dedicated washroom upstairs for disabled but it was not a specifically disabled designed toilet.

The Whyte ave location has been a favourite for many years. Decided to go to the downtown location last night - wont be going there again. So bad! Started out bad from the start when my friend ordered a dry Martini - not sure what she got but it was not drinkable. Felt bad for the waitress as it was quite obvious she didnt know anything about drinks and it was quite clear there was not a bartender on staff so the Waitress was having to mix them. Then the meal was a flop - Schnitzel was over cooked; Spaetzle Pasta was like rubber; veggies were cold - very disappointing! To top it off the after dinner special coffees were a disaster. Very expensive evening for a very disappointing dinner!

Each dish was a delight, meticulously prepared and beautifully presented. Our evening was made even more memorable by our waitress, Carly. Her knowledge of the menu was impressive, and her recommendations were spot-on. Carlys warm and attentive service made us feel truly special, anticipating our needs without being intrusive. She added a personal touch that elevated our dining experience to the next level. If youre looking for a fine dining experience with impeccable service, Continental Treat is a must-visit.

I went to Continental treat for the first time tonight and it was soooo god damn good. The only restaurant Ive ever been to where I felt 100% safe eating as a celiac. Also the vibes were super good and Im obsessed (not in a weird way) with the server I had (Cait). Not only did she rock as a server, but she really empathized with how much it can suck to be a celiac. Cait made sure we knew what items were on the menu that are rare finds for celiacs and let me know I can get stuff like Loafs of gluten free bread or pierogies to take home. Continental treat will be top of my list for dining out and Ill finally feel like a normal person eating out. Side note Cait heard us chatting about needing family doctors and let us know of places accepting patients. We booked consultations with the clinic while waiting for dessert, so hard to beat service on that level lol. Dietary restrictions: Celiac

I recently had the privilege of dining here, and I dont believe that is hyperbolic to say. The food, while delicious, paled in comparison to the excellent and outstanding service we received. Our server, whose name was Liam, was very attentive and kind, but not at all in an intrusive way. I honestly cannot say that there would be any aspect of their service that could be improved in any way. I had an absolutely wonderful time, and would be more than happy to go again or recommend it to others without reservation.

This was our first time at this restaurant. My husband and I went with another couple. I chose the restaurant because my friend is celiac and everything on the menu is gluten free!!! I was nervous maybe it wouldn t be that good because it was sll gluten free. Everything was phenomenal!!! Everything!! We ordered salmon with dill, petrified, escargot, schnitzel, wild mushroom pasta ..we tried it all and it was all amazing!!! Also the best freaking cormel cheesecake!!! To die for! The Black Forest cheesecake is too big to finish even with stretchy pants! Don t wear pants!
