    From dessert to dinner, fantastic.

    Symposium is probably my favourite place to eat in Guelph.

    Though known for their dessert cakes in particular (and with good reason), I've had a variety of dishes there and been blown away every time. From steak to pasta and whatever else in between, Symposium can't seem to do wrong for me.

    It's a slightly fancier place, but not so fancy that you're expected to be dressy. The atmosphere is nice and yet relaxed, with a slightly more "bar" atmosphere on one side (where they have some TV's and are playing major sports games) and more of a nice restaurant feel on the other. The two feel quite separate and yet it works very. Kudos to them for pulling this off.

    With this slightly higher standard, the prices are a bit higher than what you might pay at a Kelsey's or a Montana's, but I wouldn't say it's overpriced, and I'm always happy to pay for what I get there. There are daily deals that seem fairly consistent and worthwhile.

    Selection is full without being overwhelming, and they have a variety of wines that they recommend with different dishes. I can't comment on their beer selection.

    Service has always been fantastic and kind, although a few meals of mine have taken a bit longer to receive on busier nights. Aside from this, however, I have nothing negative to say about Symposium. I highly recommend it!

    I liked my burger, but it took us over a half hour to get some drinks, and the food took forever to come as well! Cool place though and a good menu.

    The first time my family came here, we went for breakfast and we all enjoyed everything! I ordered the Belgian waffle (I had chocolate chips added), and my dad had the steak and eggs. I tried some of his food and almost ended up eating all of it because it was so good. Even my dad who can be a tough one to please enjoyed his food. Everything was amazing (food and service) and it left me wanting more. The only thing I I would've liked better is if the waffle was made with chocolate chips inside, not put on the top. Our server was super nice and even let my dad get normal fries instead of home fries, even though it was 10:40 and lunch hadn't started yet. The pricing was surprisingly not bad. We will definitely be back soon to try their lunch or dinner and desserts (they look amazing)!

    I've not had a bad meal here. Good food, tons of options. Unique but cozy interior design, very comfy seating. The staff are what make it though. Every single person is friendly and knowledgeable.

    With one of our previous visits (for an after dinner coffee) we saw their amazing gallery of cakes. Since we were stuffed from our meal, we decided to go here another time again just for dessert. And that's what we did. We chose the 'Sky hi' chocolate cake and a creme brulee cheesecake. Both tasted amazingly good! The portions were enormous and way too big to finish. We got lucky we visited on sunday, because we got 2 cakes for the price of 1. The service was very nice and attentive. The seats were nice as well and the atmosphere was good.
    The only thing we didn't like so much, is that is was a bit chilly (both visits), but overall we were very satisfied
