Really appreciated the staff at this spot, plus the poutine. They let me take a with call from a quiet space, coordinated my food and beer, and had plenty of samples and suggestions. Solid local beer. Humongous, gravy-covered portions. Easy strip mall access and parking.

Went there for my husband's birthday dinner and has the best time! The fish tacos are great and the penne with a vodca sauce was delicious (I hope they make it a regular dish!). And Shonee made our night so special! We'll definitely be back for more soon 😊

As a minority person, I didn't feel that minority people were welcome. As a loyal Canadian, I am very disappointed. I was offered the worst table until I asked for the table that was already set and available. The Shirley Temple was served to my wife without a garnish. I had to ask the server where the was garnish; the server said that they were out of stock of orange, she then offered a maraschino cherry; thereafter, the server returned with a complete garnish, with a half sliced orange and a maraschino cherry. The server took the meal order from the table that came after my table first. The shrimp was not completely cooked. I asked about the linguine, and she informed me that they are out of stock of the lobster and that they will substitute it with Jumbo shrimp. I agreed. I requested to get a marinara sauce; she had to pause for a minute and responded that she would have to inquire. I reiterated that I was allergic to cream sauce and that I had noticed that marinara sauce is on the menu.

The restaurant’s design was excellent, providing a great atmosphere. However, the service was quite average, and the food menu lacked variety. We ordered a classic pizza and a burger, but both were burnt on the bottom. Additionally, we ordered a Blond beer, but the bill charged us for something else that was $1 more expensive. While we didn’t raise a complaint, we were disappointed with the overall experience and won’t be returning.

I've been comming here since the opening and usually the food is good. The chicken in the chicken sandwich was thin, dry and overdone in a small bun. The brisket sandwich is good, but I remember it better and it's time to update the side beans.
