In a small town north of Toronto, Ontario, lies a gem of a
fine dining establishment, situated on the outskirts of a small town called
Keswick, the ice -fishing capital of Canada, (pop. 18,000)... In the
summer, the lure of the beaches of Cook’s Bay draw many people to
this quaint town whose re-development over the last few years has given Keswick
a unique place for fine dining called Lakeside Bistro....
After ten years of providing personal dining service to its many
clientele from the community and beyond, Lakeside
Bistro, is in the midst of a tenth anniversary celebration offering lobster
tails, surf and turf and crab legs. ... This seafood attraction
has been ongoing since the beginning of July and shows no signs of abating. ... Other
anniversary specials are coming soon, I’ve been told, as a gesture of gratitude
towards its many loyal customers...
The owner/operator is a hands-on proprietor who knows many
of his customers by name. Angelo and his
staff have turned Lakeside Bistro
into a fine dining destination for holiday, birthday and anniversary
celebrations, romantic nights on the town or a warm place to simply forget the
hustle and bustle of everyday life... Angelo has an extensive background in the
hospitality industry spanning several decades with Peter, his master chef. ... Special touches await you: incredibly sumptuous pasta dishes,
rack of lamb, daily steak specials, Sunday's specially priced Prime Rib and other luscious seafood selections . ... An incredible array of salads await your choosing. (Appetizers of pickles, olives, garlic bread, dipping sauce begin the appetizer selections, courtesy of Lakeside Bistro.)
With Angelo, Dean and wait staff, it’s all in the details.
Customer service coupled with a warm greeting, hug or handshake make Bistro that special place you think
about whenever you feel like being pampered... You are greeted like family.... Reservations are accepted at any time, but not necessary. ...(Parties are always welcome!)
Bistro opens early and closes when
you are finished.... Bistro, also, offers
an eclectic mid week menu for a simple change of pace. (The Caesar salad is incredible.)
Food is freshly prepared to suit your palate... An
appetizer plate of an olive oil dipping sauce, old fashioned pickles and olives
grace the table alongside the garlic bread as you wait for your food to arrive...Music
envelopes you as you relax and enjoy the dimly lit surroundings and fireplace....
The attentive staff await your every wish....Desserts are “tops” - including
the Crème
Brûlée, diners' favourite, made almost daily by Angelo. ...(A detailed drink/ cocktail menu is now available)
With the hectic pace of modern life, it is nice to know that an
affordable, yet elegant and relaxing place exists that treats the customer like family...
There are many other dining spots that are interesting and affordable places to
enjoy. Few have the personal attention to detail that Bistro offers...Meals are heaven sent!
Our family now has a
place, close to home, that offers a choice to the long distance drive to Toronto
that would be necessary for a special night ‘on the town’..... Few fine dining
restaurants care the way Bistro
does.... Congratulations, Angelo, Dean, Peter and staff, on your tenth anniversary... Lakeside Bistro, with its colourful
exterior, outdoor gardens, sculptures, columns and patio area, has stood the
test of time and will continue to expand to become yet another sightseeing
destination for all...Closed Mondays...
