K	Katie O Connor on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Excellent, eclectic menu with lots of variety. Good selection of Gins and Cocktails, I'm always looking for elderflower tonic and was excited to see it on the menu. Food was good quality and very tasty. Personally would have liked a bit more side ratio with my main meal but couldn't fault it otherwise. Last but probably best part of the experience was the staff. Friendly, attentive and super accommodating. Will definitely rerurn!
L	Layla Farhat on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Genuinely don't understand the low ratings. Was there early evening. Good vibe, not pretentious, good music at the perfect volume. Feels like a secluded patio off King which is unique and refreshing. The drinks are amazing as is the food! Our waitress (didn't catch her name she was the only blonde one) was incredibly kind and always kept her eye on her tables. Made us feel like we were her only table - kudos to her! Food presentation was lovely as well. Def would go back.
D	Diane L on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Had a lovely time at Xango. We had an excellent server, can’t remember his name, had tattoos down his arm. He does dinner service and then bartends after hours. Anyways, he was great, gave good description of the food, provided thoughtful feedback on cocktail choices and just overall hospitable. Food wise, everything was tasty and great timing. Cocktails were made well. Overall the thing that made the difference for this experience was probably the service. I can find good food and good cocktails anywhere, but good service always sets places apart. I hope he gets recognition for his excellent service.
R	Raphael Puente on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The servers are awesome, super friendly and kind. Overall I liked the place; it looks great, plays good music and the vibe was cool. On the other hand, the food is just okay. I had a bowl with salmon and tuna which was good, but I’ve also tried their burgers and fried rice and whatnot which are not bad, but I’d just never buy them again. I do believe they need a bigger assortment of cocktail drinks. The server kindly offered to fix me something that wasn’t on the menu, it was so delicious. Extra points for that type of great customer service, but I’d very much appreciate to have more cocktails on the menu. This place is not actually on King St, it’s kind of secluded so I think that’s the reason why it wasn’t super crowded which I was thankful for. Would go back.
N	Nadia Correia on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Me and my husband went to Xango last night! We loved the vibe the decor and ambiance. Food was really good as well. The reason I'm not scoring higher is that the customer service didn't match. We were served by a young girl wearing jeans and a tank top. All waitresses had their hair down which in my opinion is not hygienic when serving food. Every one wearing tank tops tight fitting clothes and armpits on show and to be honest I couldn't really tell who worked there because everyone was doing their own thing. Also the girl serving us, could do with some training. She smiled but that's about it, there was no interaction with the guests and because it was our first time there we didn't know what to order but there was also no suggestions for food or drinks. When clearing our plates from the starters she started and then got distracted with the TV and forgot to finish what she was doing. Overall very poor service, like very very poor service. A little training and some uniforms would go a long way to match the prices.
T	Tiffany Lew on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I came here with two friends for a patio dinner. The place is very nice, really beautiful decor and patio but I didn’t know what to expect with the food given it’s part of a “club”. But with that being said - the quality was on pointttt, AMAZING food but service was slow (just be mindful of that when ordering). We loved the chicken bites, lettuce wraps, cauliflower bites and must order - lemon meringue pie. The one item we wouldn’t get again however was the poke bowl, it was really bland but decent! Also the price range was very fair.
C	Courtney Sit on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Modern fusion food at its best, food was flavourful and fresh. It is hard to pick a favourite but the sliders and pork belly Bao were hard to beat. The dessert reminded me of a Twix bar in all the right ways. The cocktails are deliciously potent. Service was good to. Great ambience!
K	Kim on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I would give a 4 star but we really didn’t see what all the hype was about for this restaurant… the food was good but nothing special. I ordered a cocktail from our server’s recommendation but tried one sip and didn’t like it at all… they still added it to our bill even though we asked them to take it back! We had to mention it for them to take it off. I also love my desserts but got the world’s tiniest scoop of ice cream to go with it… such a disappointment because the ice cream really brings the dessert together. Service was ok but I wouldn’t say it was worth it for the price. Not sure I would go back to this restaurant in the future unless I really had to.
