I popped in just before they were due to close, but the host was very accomadating, and although it was a limited menu, they still made a vegetarian meal for my wife whilst I had the beef sandwich. Large free car park.

It's been a while since I visited this restaurant and today my aunt decided we should visit again since it's been a long time. Our server was very sweet but a little bit slow on checking on us and bringing out the food as well as bringing the bill. It wasn't overly busy either. The food was tasty and the portion size was good. We just ordered breakfast for lunch. I've attached pictures of our meals. This place has been here for a while and the inside is pretty dated. The furniture has seen better days. We also had a couple of ants hanging around our table after the sugar jar. It's your typical diner style place. It's a nice quiet location if you're looking to just have a simple lunch.

Perfect spot for lunch during a visit to the Royal Botanical Gardens in Burlington. A simple choice for excellent food in a family restaurant setting. Photo is the Turkey cranberry brie grilled cheese.

If you're looking for a hassle-free dining experience without the mess of cooking at home, look no further. Rose Garden has everything to satisfy your appetite. I ordered a simple 3 egg breakfast and it was delicious. Rose Garden offers the comforting taste of home-cooked meals and the service is great too :)

The Fish and Chips looks good, it comes with tartare sauce and a lemon wedge. I like the crispy chips but more would be better. The overall size is smaller than before, perhaps the cost of food increased in the last 18 months! The fish is a little bit too greasy; the taste of fish is good. Personally, I like Fish and Chips come with coleslaw; but they took it away from the new menu, I hope it will come back in the new future.

Our food was excellent. Had a Greek salad and the bibimbap. The Greek salad tasted fresh, was a good size (we shared among 4 people), the dressing was delicious. The bibimbap comes in the hot stone bowl which not only keeps the food warm, but cooks the rice on the bottom layer. This ended up with some portions of the rice turning crispy, which was absolutely amazing. The bibimbap comes with a spicy pepper sauce and soy sauce, which elevated the dish. The portion of it was also huge, good value for your money! The service was good, the Korean lady working here is super friendly and you can tell she really cares about the restaurant and it’s patrons. They did seem slightly short staffed but we didn’t wait long for service or food. This seems like the kind of place with a lot of regulars, the hostess greeted someone by name at the front as I was walking in. The only thing I wasn’t a fan of in this place was the atmosphere. Feels a bit like you’re stepping into a diner from 20 years ago. The outside and the inside are just kind of old and has a grey feeling to it. Look past this and our experience was almost perfect!

This is a nice family restaurant. The food is different but good. The waiters are busy but take the time to be friendly. Even the chef takes the time to bring out food and talk to people to check if they like the food. The food is a good value for what you are getting. The place is always near full. We have been there a number of times after a visit to The Royal Botanical Gardens and we will continue to make this place a part of our routine when we go to there

After hearing great things about Rose Garden, I finally got the chance to try it. Hubby had a hot turkey sandwich, flavours were spot on. I had the legendary Bimbimbap. It was all it was hyped up to be. Server immediately sat us down and drinks and food came out quick. We will definitely be back soon.

Went yersterday with my wife for breakfast. Took a long time for the waitress to come to take our coffee order even though the place was almost empty. My wifes cup had lipstick around the rim so I went to the back to cancel my breakfast order. When I told the waitress why....instead of an apology she blurted out in a hostile tone...Well, I didnt put it there! Then she tried to put ME on the defensive by accusing me of being too aggressive. This was ridiculous..no way was I anything but assertive. Walked out and wont be back. Who needs this bull???

This is a nice family owned restaurant and the staff were really friendly! The environment was clean and organized as well. One thing was the food wasnt as great as I would have liked and the cost was a bit high My dad ordered the turkey club sandwich and my mom liver and onions I tried the turkey club sandwich and it was good because it was real turkey (not deli meat) but kind of dry I dont really eat that kind of sandwich normally Im not sure if there should be more sauce though Anyway, my mom said that her liver and onions were good Ill take her word for that because I dont really eat that. For both they had fries and those were the best! Really good fries. The liver also came with a salad which was worth it. I had the wings which was a starter so it doesnt really come with anything except some vegetable sticks. The mild sauce was different than I normally see and so while it was good it wasnt what I pictured it would be. But I did pay $15 for them here and only got wings and a couple carrot sticks whereas I paid $15 at potato bar the other day and got wings, fries and pickles on the side

July 21, 2024

Waitress was very rude asking do you people believe in tipping said yes we do then she said because we didnt tip she had to tip the cook out of her own pocket cause they cooked our food all this with an attitude been here before no problems now never going back

The food was ok but service wasnt very good at all . I asked for a salad to come with my meal and they forgot.another person asked for a drink and waited over a half hour for it. We were in a large party of 30 and we had one server.

I was looking forward to trying Rose Garden Restaurant as we frequent Cherry Hill and plan to go here with my kids. From the start we should have left. The beer glass had visible dirt around the rim, dark hair on the condiment plate and there were no other customers at 5 pm on a Friday. We ordered fish and chips. The fish looked like leftovers refried, incredibly greasy and dark. The fries resembled microwaved leftovers from the day prior. Incredibly greasy and limp, flopping over when picked up I couldn t eat them. Kindly the server informed us the manager took $3 off our bill for the uneaten fries. She also shared they have had many complaints about the potatoes but they had large bags to use up. My friend suggested they shouldn t be serving these, the server demonstrated the size of the bags they needed to use up. I understand using inventory but with multiple complaints maybe that decision should be reassessed. Twenty mins after eating I started to feel off. Although we were the only customers in the restaurant I didn t want to chance a tea so we left and went to another establishment. Another twenty minutes go by and I went home sick. I will not go back and strongly suggest avoiding this place.

The food was okay. The tables were quite empty when we arrived. But we had to wait for quite some time before being asked for what to drink. The tablewares prepared for our table were not enough and we had to ask for another set. Our water cups were empty for some time and had to ask for water refill with a bit difficulty to find a waitress. The waitress would stand right by your table looking at how much tips you gave her and gave you attitude if it s not to her flavour.

May 21, 2024

Where to begin? The huge sign on the outside has the wrong time (off by 4 hours). First impression was that it was old and dingy. The tables were really beat up and sticky. The food came out quick but wasn t great. Potatoes were big and many were hard. Eggs Benny were slimy. Food had a weird taste. Service was okay. Asked to have 2 different kinds of eggs Benny and it was NO right away. How hard is it to change up a couple of toppings to put 2 different ones on the plate? We were totally willing to pay for the more expensive option. Prices were fine. Overall not a great experience and will not be returning.

Great spot for an Extended Midweek Family Brunch. No crowd, and The Server kept bringing us extras as we ordered more food, and kept laughing at and with us. LoL. Amazing Bibimbap!! Parking: At busy times parking may be a problem. There is extra across the street but its Of ay parking Wheelchair accessibility: Everything is level and the bathroom is kind of accessible. Someone will need to open the door for you though, so if youre on your own, you might need to call ahead with an ETA.

We have eaten here many times but today was my last. The food was good but the server was a little toquick for my liking. I had to ask twice for things because when I asked for ketchup she turned and quickly walked away before I could say vinegar and mayo for my chips and clubhouse. I thought that the clubhouse came with soup but she said no so I was going to check on the way out to see if I read it wrong anyway she never came back to refill our water or coffee so on a 23.50 bill I left her 25. She took it and turned away and turned right back and said is this wrong I said no. She said a buck before she could finish I said ok bring me the machine .she turned and I thought no way Im standing my ground that all I said that I have. She was not happy. Well neither am I with your service or asking for more tip.

The bibimbap was popular at our table. It was unlike anything I ve ever had before and excellent! I will return for that dish. Other guests enjoyed the schnitzel, Ruben sandwich, Greek burger and chicken wings. Everyone was happy with their food. Decor is old school but we loved that about it.

Great atmosphere in a classic restaurant. Even though striking into the Rose Garden is like going back In time, that doesnt mean the place is outdated. In fact, quite the opposite; in our challenging times the Rose Garden is way ahead of most other places by creating a simpler more enjoyable atmosphere that lets a diner forget everything going on In the world and just enjoy good food with friendly staff in a peaceful setting . And weekends are Prime Rib night . Oh! Best Hot stone bowl rice in the city!

We learned about this gem from a Burlington local and we are so happy we went. First off the food portions are large, so come hungry or take leftovers for lunch. The service is quick and quiet. We were seated on multiple occasions near the end of the night. We also walked in, so making a reservation is not needed. My one comment would be the decor is very outdated and feels like retirement home furniture. Otherwise, I d say this local family restaurant is consistent and filing for the price.

This place really should be busier than it is. We thought it was a Chinese Restaurant based on the name, but once we looked at the menu we noticed it was more a family style place.

One of the best dolsot bibim baps Ive ever had! If you are visiting the Royal Botanical Gardens or Cherry Hill Gate, or just in the area haaa end your trip at this diner. Its mostly western fair, but the gem is the only Korean dish on the menu, their dolsot bibimbap. It comes sizzling and the rice crisps up perfectly. Its a great portion and when mixed the flavours are rich and delicious. I blame my brother for introducing this place BC now nothing else compares. Not yet anyways

Wonderful food, highly recommended as a diner, with some slightly upscale options on the menu, like the turkey cranberry and brie grilled cheese. I strongly recommend the bibbimbap. The house made coconut cream pie was also a hit. Just dont go for the atmosphere/facilities, go for the fact its a great unassuming family restaurant, with options for everyone in the family.

We were so pleased to find this hidden gem! After spending the morning at the Rock Garden & checking out the scary prices @ RBG restaurant, this friendly little place was so relaxing with reasonable pricing. FASTEST. SERVICE. EVER! Its like the cook was listening in; we ordered Italian wedding soup, fish & chips, spinach salad with substitutions (food allergies), & bibimbop, & it all came to our table faster than McDs! We were shocked when she came back, thinking we had to change our order, not that it was the food already. Everything was delicious & fresh! The waitress just naturally checked on our table about a dozen times while doing her rounds. Yup, always had water on the table. They have Creemore among their bottled beers which shows their good taste Not a crumb was left on the plate! So yummy. The spinach was garden fresh & crisp. The fish was piping hot & a good size. Bibimpop was dellcious & piping sizzling hot. The hot soup disappeared very fast, not a drop left behind. The decor inside is very comfortable. The rose garden outside? Ok, needs some attention. The front door? Worst part! We couldnt find it! LOL The waitress ran outside when she saw us wandering around. Its hidden in a solid wood wall. This is now a must-visit place for us next time we visit RBG. Vegetarian options: The spinach salad is delicious & they can accommodate vegan. Its not really a vegan place but they are flexible. Dietary restrictions: I needed to have a custom dressing because of my food allergies & also they had to be careful about the contents, holding out the croutons. Definitely it was made fresh, not premade in the morning. They cut up an entire lemon just for me. Parking: Tons, tons of parking on their own lot. Well maintained asphalt. You do not even need to park near other cars if you want some space.

Had a nice lunch in here today. The lady who attended us is such very nice. I had the dolsot bibimbap and my company had the Greek burger with pesto and Feta cheese. Very tasty and lots of amount. I really like the crispiness of the rice at the bottomand lots of vegetables. The burger also juicy and delicious. Good combination with the pesto and feta. Lots of fries too.

Went there after church. 4 of us. 3 got scrambled, sausage, taters and toast/coffee. One got over easy, taters and bacon. So ..bacon guy gets served first. Bacon looked like it could have been cooked way more. ALL the potatoes needed so much more grill time. Overall, not bad - sort of. Anyway, 4 standard breakfast plates with coffee/tea came to 67 bucks - 13 dollar tip brought it up to 80 bucks. A bit pricey but I haven t been out for a while. Server was nice enough.

Horrible customer service. Sat down to order a milkshake and got treated extremely poorly compared to the other customers because I didn t order a meal. When paying, I left a tip and the waitress said nothing, ripped the receipt out of the machine and walked away. Also there were dead flies on the window sill where I was sitting. Would not recommend.

I ordered the hot beef sandwich with sweet potatoes. The potatoes and gravey were the best part of the meal. The roast beef was cold cut meat, plenty if it but it tasted awful. No flavour. Another person in our party ordered a rubin sandwich. Did not notice that they put thousand island dressing on it. (Which is not normally put in this sandwich) no sourcroute, it was smothered between layers couldnt even remove some of it. Made it discussting. I tried it as well. The third person irdered pestromi it was fine. Parking: Plenty

Decent food in a family-style diner with friendly staff. Standard diner menu with some interesting extras - we had a Bibimpbap and a Teriyaki Chicken dish - these were OK but a classic club sandwich or all-day breakfast might have been a better bet. The Teriyaki was good but it was described as stir-fried which it didn t seem like it was - more like grilled chicken on rice with steamed broccoli/carrots/green beans on the side - perfectly tasty (and probably healthier than a stir-fry!) but wasn t what we expected. Kids had home-made burgers which were exactly as you d expect in a diner, good size portion too.

This is a family business so the menu includes a variety of cuisines. The food is good. The atmosphere is ideal for family gatherings. I would not plan for romantic dinner here. This appears to be a popular place as tables were nearly full while I was there. It is a good place to dine after walking the trails in Hendrie Valley.

Honestly yummy Korean Stone Bowl Bibimbap. Marinated beef, several vegetables, rice and Korean Gochujang sauce, all mixed in a super-heated granite bowl. It s tasty, healthy and filling! They also have all the usual Western sandwiches, roast beef dinners and other western fare, but the Stone Bowl Bibimbap is really the star. My mother is vegetarian and asks for it without the beef. She says it s one of the best she s had!! The staff are friendly and the owners are genuinely nice. I love eating here when I pass by the area. Charming location just a stones throw away from the Royal Botanical Garden. Visit any time of day, but I love sitting in the dining room on a quiet snowy day and staring out the windows enjoying my Stone Bowl Bibimbap! Edit: Over the last several years, I have been introducing friends and family to the Rose Garden Restaurant. Each of them have introduced others to this gem of a place! I m hoping I don t have to wait 20 minutes to be seated in the future. Edit: Every time I visit, I quickly scan the tables to see what people are eating. I see people of all ages ordering the hot Korean stone bowl bibimbap. Here s a trick! Mix your ingredients together with the sauce and push the rice against the wall of the super hot stone bowl. Give it a couple of minutes while the rice gets toasted against the hot bowl. The slight toasting will give it a nutty flavour and an added texture to Enjoy! I ll have to try to remember to add photos in the future when the stone bowl arrives, I forget all about the photos until after I ve finished.

Was passing by on way back from Ikea and feeling hungry. See this place and did a uturn as it looked half full inside. Came in seated right away and our service was impressive. The food was fantastic and flavourful, not overly seasoned or dull. It tasted fresh and full of goodness. I enjoyed the schnitzel and Jenny the Salmon. Worth the money paid and we are lucky as after we were finished eating, the 2 servers here were getting rushed with others waiting at the door. If you are ever passing, its worth the visit to support local businesses.

Nice and clean restaurant. A little pricey for portion size. Atmosphere and menu geared more towards senior citizens therfore a wonderful and comfortable location for older folks to dine. Parking: Parking on either side of building.
