   This restaurant, like its name, is a "RARE" find. Our server walked us through the menu and everything we ordered was excellent. We definitely will be informing our friends of this excellent Peterborough restaurant.

   Honestly a gem!!! Found this restaurant online as I was going to be in Peterborough for one night and I was looking for a nice place. The food, ambiance and service were beyond exceptional. I really can’t say enough about how perfect the entire experience was. Drinks were tasty. Food was all so delicious. Duck confit was probably the best I have ever had. Steak was cooked to perfection. Music and atmosphere relaxing. Everything was beyond! Thank you to Samantha and Claire for your diligent attention. I only wish it was closer to home so I could go more often. Honestly this restaurant rates better than most if not all the restaurants I have been too. I really can’t say enough or recommend highly enough.

   The food is amazing! Two people at our table had the strip loin, which was cooked to perfection, one of had the chicken which was wonderful and I had the gnocchi, again, which again was awesome. You must have the bread! Fresh out of the oven and perfect to share. Our server was lovely, very attentive and very knowledgeable. You may find it a little pricey, but it's worth it! Can't wait to go back.

   Everything was amazing from start to finish. We had the octopus and it was cooked perfectly, best I’ve ever had. We will absolutely be coming back!

   We had an amazing evening celebrating our 18th anniversary. Im on the carnivore diet and my girlfriend is keto and they accommodated our dietary requirements. I had the 22oz bone-in Ribeye without any sides and my girlfriend had the prime rib with veggies and they swapped the potatoes witb butternut spaghetti squash. Both entree's were fantastic. Highly recommend and will return.

    Rare is one of the best restaurants we have visited in the Kawarthas. Food, staff and service second to none.
