We came back to Good Son because our first time there was amazing and it’s safe to say the second time is just as incredible—maybe even better! We had the short ribs and the spicy rosé rigatoni this time, along with the steak tartare, the grilled shrimp lettuce cups and the tuna carpaccio and all of them were out of this world. The flavors were rich, bold, and just downright delicious!! The service, as always, was impeccable. Josh took such great care of us, and Jo, the manager, as always made sure everything was perfect, she is the sweetest and most attentive manager I have met! It’s clear this team genuinely cares about creating a great experience. Oh, and the drinks? Absolutely divine—seriously, some of the best cocktails around. Good Son has become a favorite, and we can’t wait to come back again soon!

Wait staff were all exceptional especially our server , very attentive!

Wonderful service. Good food and decent prices for drinks during happy hour.

Our party of 6 celebrated both our son’s 25th birthday and Mother’s Day for my wife. We were all excited to try Scotthill as Jamaican food was a favourite of the birthday boy and the food reviews we read were all good. It is a small restaurant and has little room for guests to wait for their tables and unfortunately it was raining outside. Once we got our table we ordered fairly quickly having read that food was served fairly slowly from time of order. Curried Roti, BBQ Jerk Chicken dinner with rice, plantain and Channa were the favourite orders along with refreshing Ginger Beer. An excellent bowl of chicken soup was provided complimentary due to the wait. As expected the main courses took about an hour to be served. So if you’re one to be impatient with speed of food service, you should be warned. The food itself was very good. The curried chicken Roti was the favourite of the meals served. Quite excellent. The BBQ jerk chicken was also quite good. The only downside was the many small bones one had to be careful of in eating the chicken. The Channa was very tasty and a good dish to share. The plantain was enjoyable, tasting somewhat like a potato textured less sweet banana. We enjoyed our meals and would return for the food. We would go thinking this would be a minimum 2 hour dining experience and be in no hurry!
