Luke’s
A master charcutier and child prodigy, young Luke was born in 1993 and is the genius behind the restaurant. While waiting for your meal, take a moment to read the resto manifesto, promising that each dish is lavished with a generous portion of TLC. The true essence of Luke’s is distilled in the club sandwich – a unique ensemble of homemade bread, crispy bacon cured in-house, and local organic produce.

Chez Piggy
Hidden in a flowery stone courtyard, the city’s best-known restaurant has earned its reputation with an innovative menu, charming ambience and memorable weekend brunches. Mains include confit of Muscovy duck leg and seared Togarashi sea scallops, and the bread is freshly baked down the street at Pan Chancho. Reservations are strongly recommended on weekends.

Royal Angkor
When looking up ‘hole in the wall’ in the dictionary, you just might find a picture of this Southeast Asian eatery. It doesn’t get simpler than this – a sparsely decorated sitting area and a couple of pots and pans. But who really cares about atmosphere when the homemade dishes burst with fresh ingredients and come at unbeatable prices?

Kingston Brewing Company
Chow down on tasty tavern munchies amid flickering Christmas lights and kitschy beer-themed paraphernalia, or make a meal of it and grab a patio table outside. Whatever you do, be sure to try the homemade brew: the Dragon’s Breath Ale will put a fire in your belly and the White Tail Cream Ale is so popular, they’ve begun to bottle it.

Pan Chancho
Enter past the large peel-wielding pig to uncover this gourmand’s paradise. Light and savory lunches fuse unlikely ingredients into palate-pleasing dishes. Try the fennel and cream-cheese spread – perfect on any of the freshly baked breads. Students will get a handy 15% discount.

Sleepless Goat
With a name that sounds like an Alanis Morissette lyric, it’s no surprise that this low-key joint attracts gaggles of artists and angsty intellectual types. A self-proclaimed co-op, the restaurant is run by a clan of savvy cooks who churn out the tastiest veggie options in town.

Tango
Kingston’s attempt at downtown sophistication is a fresh combustion of DJ beats and tapas treats. Weekends are dominated by the loosened ties and popped collars of local financiers after a long week at the office. Quieter weekdays have discounted tapas and martini options.

Chien Noir
Urbane, sleek and modern in design, this French-style bistro delivers the gastronomic goods. The menu, featuring a broad assortment of steaks and seafood, will surely leave customers plagued with indecision. The tantalizing brunch menu is a real nail-biter too.

Gusto
Go for the Gusto and enjoy a hearty Italian meal between trickling fountains and a cavernous wine cellar. The effervescent ambience falls somewhere between 'modern trattoria' and 'medieval Tuscan villa.'
