    Ou waitress started out well, but seemed to forget us then. I had a gift card. She didn’t take it, but another young woman did. After a few minutes, she asked if I wanted to put the tip on the card too. Later, she came back with the bill, which I couldn’t read well without my reading glasses, but thought it was odd she didn’t ask what%I wanted to pay I assumed she just added 20%. But when I got home in good light, I could see that no tip was included. Odd experience.

    It’s a Tuesday night. Not overly busy so it wasn’t loud. Food and service was fantastic and friendly.

    We were in house on a Sunday afternoon for a birthday party. It was quiet so we could hear, and the service was great. We had a severe lactose issue as well as a gluten issue and they accommodated without issue. It was a great place to gather and catch up as a group of friends. We will be back.

    Went for brunch and the eggs benny with smoked bacon was delicious. Food was served hot and flavour was amazing! My sister had a specialty coffee and it was made with whipped cream (not from the can) and it was also delicious. We have been here a bunch of times for brunch and have never had a bad meal

    Went for dinner to celebrate my birthday with friends. Food, drinks and services was great. Nothing extra was done by the restaurant for my birthday even though I did indicated before coming. Either way I will be back.

    I brought my boyfriend here for his birthday lunch, I'd made the reservation with the note that we were celebrating his birthday. We started out with a a drink each (2 beers) and an appetizer. From there we ache order handhelds (burger and brisket sandwiches) The upcharge for sweet potato fries was hefty. At the end of the meal we were not asked if there would be anything else, nor was an offer of dessert made. The bill was promptly delivered and it was $95 without tip. The tip options started at 18%. In my mind this was not good value at all. While the quality and quantity of food was great, I'm not sure I'll be returning.
