SUJEO is a full-service Korean restaurant on Picton Main Street where the menu moves between hand-shaped dumplings, rice bowls, soups, noodles and grilled meat.

Stuart Cameron's Bocado turns a Picton Main Street dinner into a Spanish-leaning progression of cured meats, tapas, paella and substantial shared plates. The current menu is broad enough for an exploratory table yet focused enough to build around a few anchors: Pulpo with potato and paprika, saffron-rich Seafood Paella, and a mushroom-led Setas Paella that gives vegetarian diners a serious centrepiece. Reservations, cocktails and regional wines make the room especially well suited to a paced evening with friends.

Hendriks Barbeque is a Loyalist Parkway smokehouse built for a relaxed County outing: brisket, pulled pork, ribs and chicken arrive as sandwiches, shareable platters and by-the-pound orders beside Crimson Cider Company. The menu is strongest when a group mixes smoked meats with coleslaw, beans, cornbread or mac and cheese, then settles into the easygoing outdoor setting.
