Flavours That Speak for Themselves

What Our Diners Have to Say

This was such a great spot for farm-to-table dining, loved that the hotel had such a great restaurant on site. The service was excellent, and they had such great options for dishes, and wine selection. I loved that all of the wine selection was mainly local, as well as the food dishes which were sourced from the farm which was amazing. Overall such a great spot, I was told by so many locals about this spot so I’m so happy to have finally tried it and now know why it is a loved spot. Highly recommend for a special dining experience in the Niagara Falls area.

Once again we had a lovely time at the AG. Everything was top notch from the greeting to the goodbye. The service was excellent, the food delicious and nicely timed, and the room, lovely and comfortable. We try to make a stay at the Sterling Inn and dinner at the AG an annual occurrence and we are never disappointed.

Brinksman, OpenTable Review

This is the hidden gem of Niagara- the food, service, and atmosphere are all incredible. It is not overcrowded or noisy, but rather a relaxed and quiet environment that you can rest and enjoy. I have been a few times, and every time the food impresses me!

Jared, OpenTable Review

The best meal of 2024 for my wife and I. Every thing we ate was awesome, and the venison was life altering! 12/10, would recommend!

My wife and I often visit Niagara Falls, Ontario, in the winter. Over the years, we have dined at most of the restaurants in the area. This we went to AG Inspired Cuisine. It was a trifecta! The facility speaks of competence. It is comfortable, modern, well-designed, and cultured. However, the aesthetics do not get in the way of the meal. It sets the stage. The staff could not be more accommodating and pleasant. They greeted us warmly, explained the menu choices, elaborated on the chef’s selections. In the end, we were gently guided to selections that matched our palates perfectly. Finally, the meal. It was exquisite. The items complimented each other. The portions were neither too large nor too small. The presentation was artistic without appearing ostentatious. During our business lives, we have traveled globally and either entertained or were entertained at excellent restaurants everywhere. We agreed after the meal that we had never had a better experience anywhere. I have since read that AG Inspired Cuisine is among the top restaurants in Canada. That seems perfectly plausible to me. It will to you, too.
