We both ordered the New York Striploin, and my husband substituted the truffle mash (which was divine) for the garlic mash. They also were really accommodating with his peanut/ tree nut (anaphalytic) allergy. To our surprise, he was able to order dessert of the menu, and our server Bryton triple checked to ensure it was okay. We ordered the Brookie. It arrived garnished with some fruit and whip cream and a beautiful Happy Birthday message (as I was ringing in my birthday). Top notch!

That is exactly what we got. From the moment the young lady at the front desk greet us we knew we were in for a wonderful evening. The many rooms were decorated for the season and done beautifully. Bryton, our waiter was superb. He greeted us warmly explained the chef's special and gave us time to look over the menu have many discussions between our Daughter and ourselves as to what spoke to us. When our meals arrived 2 of the Bacon wrapped filet dinners and one Braised Short Ribs, they looked perfect and tasted even better than they looked our Filet's were cooked to perfection and our waiter was there when needed and every time he passed by the table he eye checked to see if anything was needed. Dessert is something any of us rarely have but who could resist the New York Cheesecake which our daughter and my wife shared with it's 'Happy Anniversary ' chocolate writing. while I enjoyed the trifle - only complaint there was it could have come out of the fridge earlier--will request that when we next enjoy an evening at The Cannery. Our evening at the Pillar & Post Cannery restaurant was the perfect way to celebrate a Special Occasion, or simply treat yourself to a evening out with pampering in a delightful setting. Then The Cannery in Niagara on the Lake is the place for you!!! ENJOY

They compensated with a free dessert. The prime rib was very good though the Yorkshire pudding was a little chewy. Our server was outstanding and handled the situation with professionalism
