Fume RestoBar - Brantford, Ontario

A gem of Brantford. Small and inviting with a show of flaming dishes, Fume blends a chic exposed industrial interior with decadence, and serves food to match. The service was quick and efficient with honest servers, recommending household faves. Celiac friendly, and can I just say, I’ve never had better shrimp tacos in my life.

Drive here from Toronto just for their Saganaki! Really great food , drinks and atmosphere. Been here a few times already. The last time the service was extremely slow, we waited about 2 hours to get our mains finally which was really disappointing. Usually the service is quick, must have just been a bad day. Would still recommend coming for the food!

It’s so fun when you come to a restaurant that you instantly get a vibe that they care! Food was on point ! We highly recommend the beet salad! Burger was perfect! We also had ceviche feature and it was wonderful! I should also comment on the cocktails… I have several and all had great balance and were well put together! Cannot wait to bring friends and family here for another visit! Another note - ignore the curb appeal — when we first arrived we had some concerns about you decision - we quickly became super pleased with our decision to come for dinner !

5-Star Review

This restaurant has quickly become my favorite spot! As someone who eats gluten-free, finding a place that truly accommodates my dietary needs can be challenging, but they go above and beyond every time. Their gluten-free options are plentiful, and the care they put into preparing them is evident.

The beet salad is an absolute staple on my visits, and the stuffed chicken never disappoints—it’s a consistent favorite. Tonight, I decided to try something new and ordered the Maui Maui tacos. They were absolutely delicious, and to top it off, I paired them with the best strawberry margarita I’ve ever had!

I’ll admit, I was so eager to dig in that I forgot to snap pictures right away, so forgive some of the half-eaten plates.

Highly recommend this place to anyone, especially those looking for great gluten-free options. Can’t wait for my next visit!

I’m Disappointed in Myself !

I can’t believe it took me five years to come to this restaurant. I’m not gonna lie. I’m super high maintenance for a man. I mean super high maintenance. Ask my wife and I do love good food good restaurants, nice cars, beautiful things I want everything to be perfect all the time. Ya high maintenance, but rare gems are hard to
find. To be this good still after 5 years of being open says a lot about your restaurant.

When we walked through the door the room was dimly lit with perfect lighting. We were greeted by a lovely host and taken to our tall boy table made of solid live edge table. I have to admit I did not like the table because they sat us by the kitchen,and the door which was open.

My bride took the seat with her back to the kitchen. I had to look into the kitchen which I do not like. I would have usually complain about this but something happened, I started to watch how perfect the kitchen was set up. I truly enjoyed watching this staff cook meal after meal with perfection. Everything thing they were doing was spot on from the way they were cooking to cleanliness of the kitchen to the prep cook who was totally in the zone. Yes don’t worry I was paying attention to my bride.

For a guy who has ADHD I was into the restaurant and my date more than checking my phone every 30 seconds that says a lot.

Our drinks absolutely perfect. Try the blueberry mojito or the perfect old fashioned.
Starters we had saganaki it was perfect light tasting full of flavour.

For dinner we had the ribeye sandwich with the freshest softest bun of all time. Even the fries tasted perfect with no heavy taste.

I had the ribeye steak again it was perfect. My meal was so good I scraped the plate clean.

For dessert we had homemade by the mother of the owner cheese cake. So lite tasting we also had the avocado chocolate mousse made in house again perfect.

To the bill. The bill was 205.00 with tax I tipped 30% I NEVER DO THAT ! I dislike tipping on tax, why do we do that ? Our meal was worth it. For 1 starter 2 mains 2 desserts 4 drinks the bill was very reasonable.

The meal was timed out perfectly almost 1.5 hrs from beginning to end. The restrooms were perfect and clean and setup perfectly, even the garbage can was in the place it supposed to be. You would be surprised at how many restaurants Do Not put the garbage can exactly where it’s supposed to be by law.

I could continue writing about this restaurant, but I guess I’m a little long-winded on this one. The only thing I would change in this restaurant as I would knock down the wall between the bar in the kitchen, so you could watch the kitchen staff work their magic. I cannot say enough about this kitchen staff. I once owned a live venue and I had a great staff. Great staff is hard to find, a great staff that is dedicated to attention to detail is even harder. What a Kitchen Staff. !!

Fume is still a force to be reckoned with and they have a new fan and I can’t wait to go back.
Thank you to our server who rocked and to the owner who gave me a couple of minutes and to the kitchen staff who really rocked our meal. I’m still taking about how great this meal was today.

Happy Mother’s Day to all and go have a great Meal at this stand alone 5 plus star restaurant ✊

Went for the BUW burger. So good! Love this place. Fresh crispy fries. Cut the burger in half and ate the other half stone cold out of the fridge 12 hours later. Still delicious! Thank you Fume!
