Crystal was phenomenal! Catered to our needs and the food was great! The home fries were crispy and the coffee was at the perfect temperature. Highly recommend this location
Outstanding restaurant! Menu prices are reasonable. Service was attentive and didn't make us feel rushed and the atmosphere is welcoming. If you are ever in Cobourg and are looking for a place to eat you won't be disappointed for having tried Symposium.
Excellent food, service and value. Lots of selection on menu. Very clean and staff is very friendly. Our server Emma was excellent. She not only did an excellent job but she was very friendly and attentive. Highly recommend the restaurant to others
Great service, beautiful restaurant and very attentive staff. Shout out to my server Carol, you are awesome 👌
Very disappointed. The portions were tiny, the prices were high and the service was poor. The spinach dip we got to start was a bit thin and greasy and barely covered the bottom of the dish. We had a half of the pita chips left after the dip was gone. The $19 chicken tenders my son ordered from the appetizer menu consisted of 6 "nugget" size pieces of breaded chicken and nothing else. He did take one small bite before I took the picture. The teriyaki salmon my daughter ordered was also tiny (maybe 2"x4") and not very thick. The chicken pad Thai I had was tasty but not much chicken in it at all. Sadly not even the service was good. Only about 5 tables in use but the wait times to order drinks and food was terribly long. Our server was not particularly pleasant or attentive. I would not recommend Symposium Cafe to anyone and I definitely won't be returning.
Nice patio, something for everyone on the menu, and excellent service! Alyssa was our server and she is an absolute gem. She gave us stellar service, going out of her way to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. The extra things she did to accommodate us really helped us out. If the entire staff is like her, then this is a great place and I can wholeheartedly recommend it to everyone! 🙂
Had a terrific breakfast of eggs benedict, coffee and a mimosa! Service was terrific and the food came out fast. Was a great experience and will definitely be back!
A friendly and comfortable place to have a wonderful meal. We went for breakfast. Their menu offers all the traditional fare with a couple non-traditional- try the Cuban Breakfast Sandwich! Crystal, our waitress, was friendly, prompt and attentive. Definitely will go back.
Mandatory 18% gratuity, extremely expensive, poor service. Ordered a wrap that came out soggy and was disgusting. Fries were good, but some may find them too salty. I was over billed and the server loudly chastised my friend when he changed his mind about what to order. 0/10.

Amar was always attentive and friendly. We enjoy our experience. Food excellents portions and flavors. Food
Prashant and the restaurant manager were great with our 3 year old. Friendly staff, awesome food!
Not enough chefs to serve people and got people waiting for 40 mins just for food. Not a great atmosphere mostly looks boring. There are very Lazy staff and they have to be serious hire more chefs. I rather go home than eat here.
Food was good fries were overdone burgers good. Prashant our server was efficient and friendly. Vegetarian options: Some Parking: Lots
Prashant was very friendly and attentive and let us know about the specials.

Carol was our waitress and she was incredible!!!! EXCELLENT SERVICE!!! She is a Superstar
First time as Symposium, sister in law had gear experience there and food was good. For the most part the food was good other than my nieces chicken tenders she didn t eat as they were dry, all bread and almost no chicken. I got souvlaki which was good but they were out of rice so I said fries were fine. Asked for extra Tzatziki, non on plate so I asked waitress for it. Never returned again with sauce. Sis ordered an extra garlic toast she had to ask for it when food was brought out wasn t there. Cook almost argued with her. I got my plate it had roasted potatos AND fries. Later I realized wait suppose to have Mediterranean salad I knew there was some Thing wrong with my order with roasted potatos . We were a party of 9 no one asked us if would like a beverage while waited for other members we ordered drinks when we ordered food. Asked for a baby seat waited 20mins for the seat. Once we got meals we never saw waitress again for drink top ups Or asked how food was(neice would have sent back fingers then). Saw another waitress when we are all finished for our bill. Food wise (minus chicken tenders) was alright very disappointed in the service. It had cleared out by time we ordered so was not busy. Waitress was very pleasant but not attentive at all and disappeared. Bill was over $300 not worth it.
Took family from out town for dinner and was terrible experience. Food was mostly ok but service was not good had problems from when we ordered drinks right till we had dessert. Overcharged for multiple things on bills and had to argue to get removed. Definitely will not be going back. We seen other customers leave as well from waiting to long for service.
We were a party of 6 and they seemed annoyed that they had to add a table they asked if we wanted to sit separately instead .. when we got our drinks 3 of the drinks were wrong .. it took another 2 tries after that to get it right(15 mins at that point). When my uncle got his corona it came without a lime he walked over with it on the dirty tray then passed it over with his fingers GROSS. We sent the beer back because it was flat ,then asked for it in a can , he did the same thing with the lime again had it laying on the dirty tray then passed over with bare fingers no napkin nothing! Appetizers took about 45 mins .. no one asked us how anything was. When my son got his tenders they were gross. But no one asked how our food was until everything was almost done. My son didn t eat the tenders at all. No refills nothing until the manager walked by . The best part was the bill took forever to come and when he did amar had over charged us for multiple things ! Then argued about it very rude. He was trying to charge me for my kids icecream and drink which comes with the meal he refused to take it off. He also over charged my uncle for 2 drinks that came with the couples meal AND DESSERT !! Again a big argument we had to ask for the manager which I hate doing she took it off . Took forever for him to bring that over . Never ever going back . Rude from the minute we went in . A few other tables had walked out well we were there . It s sad because it s a nice spot .
Amar did a great job! He was very polite and efficient.
Amar was great service.
First time and food was great, prices even greater! Out server Prashant was very kind and welcoming!
Saturday date night special. Dinner for 2 at 69.99 was good value. Three main courses to choose from. We had 10 oz. Striploin, roasted potatoes and grilled vegetables. ( There was fish or butternut squash ravioli as the other choices. ) App was a generous portion of spinach dip with plenty of pita bread ( serval appetizers to choose from) Dessert was s very decadent cheese cake . This also included several beverage options. I had espresso with the cheese cake. Thr food was delicious. Steak cooked as ordered ( rare) Friendly service
Server Amar was wonderful and super friendly. Thank you
This is our second time here! Carol was our server and she was delightful again. Children enjoyed the kids meals and we had pizza and a Cuban sandwich. Wonderful atmosphere and dining experience! Will be back again next time we are in cobourg!!.
Parking: Good Food
Absolutely amazing from the minute you walk in They never disappoint! Amar was our server. Very attentive very pleasant young man. We have been here often and they never disappoint. Food : 5/5
Thanks for a chance for a group of 5 friends to meet for 2 hours. We had appetizers and drinks. Service was great. Food exactly what we wanted. Our group was planning a trip in 2025 Symposium offered us the chance to meet longer. Wheelchair accessibility: I have a walking cast. The restaurant was easy to get from parking lot to the restaurant table.
We always enjoy eating here, had a nice dinner earlier this week and our server Amar was great!

Carol and the managers were lovely and super attentive! Great experience
Shakob was an excellent server, breakfast was excellent I had classic eggs Benedict, my wife had the special 3 eggs and bacon, the home fries were also crispy and very flavourful.
Parking: Easy Food
Amazing experience with amazing food and extremely tentative service from our server Carole. Would highly recommend for breakfast.
The service was pleasent but the food was not. I am on the toilet right now because of it. The spinnich dip was greasy and had an odd lemon flavor to it. The alfredo pasta sauce was broken, and tasted sour. Will not be back
Prashant was very attentive and friendly. Excellent service and food.
Excellent service from Amar, Stefani and Emma. Good conversations. Food is always very good.
Amar provided excellent service. Very Friendly. Parking: Lots of parking. Food : 5/5 |
Very pleasant staff prompt service and delicious food. Would highly recommend this restaurant.
Good service good people, ordinary place.
Breakfast is always fast and tasty. It is my new favourite breakfast spot. Parking: Lots of parking available Kid-friendliness: All round friendly staff
Quiet breakfast with excellent service and tasty food. Great sausages, not your typical skinny breakfast sausage. Great hollandaise sauce to add to anything.
Enjoyed burger, crispy chicken sandwich and grilled cheese sandwich. Great fries and onion rings all hot and fresh Kid-friendliness: My kids were given a free desert even though they ordered from the regular menu
Great food and great service
Disappointing overpriced food. Avocado toast @ $19.45 had a small amount of avocado on one thin slice of toast, pico de gallo which my wife didnt find to her taste, and 2 unusually tiny poached eggs. Braised beef Benedict tasty enough, but not worth $19.45. Even the OJ, coffee and tea are overpriced. We wont be back.
Crystal was excellent! She was pleasant, efficient and made sure we were well taken
Caral was amazing. Food was amazing as always. Love it here!
Food was great Dietary restrictions: They have gluten free food Food : 5/5 |
Amar was a great server, polite and attentive, I would like to have Amar as my server again when I visit the Symposium next time thank you Amar!
Had a fabulous breakfast/lunch! Carol our server was wonderful!
Carol was wonderful, as was the food. Good service and good food. Highly recommended. Food : 5/5
Great breakfast. Our server Carol was amazing as usual.
Carol is an amazing waitress and is incredibly attentive and sweet. Every time my mom and I come by for a meal she is nothing but accommodating and incredibly kind.
Great food and our server Stefanie was very considerate
Thank you so much to the waitress Stefani for showing such EXCEPTIONAL customer service skills. A big group of us had come in last minute and Stefani was able to accommodate and make us feel so welcomed!
LOVED CAROL, food and service was impeccable!
Very nice staff and good food.
Weve been coming here since it opened but will no longer return. All menu items have gone up in price -suppose thats expected given the recession. Portion sizes also went down. My issue was with the rotten muscles given and the manager arguing that the muscles were delivered today so they must be fresh when they were viably rotten. She then admitted they came from the back of the freezer and probably were old, No apology. I was then over billed, which I thankfully noticed. Serving rotten seafood can make people violently ill, and the manager couldnt have cared less. As someone who worked in restaurants for years I was absolutely appalled at the managers behaviour. Would not recommended this place to anyone.
Wonderful service from Emma!
Emma was great!!! I have been to symposium before and every time it is excellent service and excellent food. I would recommend it to everyone! Kid-friendliness: Kids are welcome with many choices
Great lunch, we had the chicken ceasar salad wrap...very tasty! Our server Emma was fantastic too! Food
Emma was a fantastic server. Attentive, great recommendations, and overall extremely pleasant. Go Emma!
One of the servers named Emma was really friendly. The food was also amazing. GO EMMA!! SHE DA BEST!
Lovely lunch and service by Carol
The service was good! Lovely service by Caroline! Thank you so much!
We were there for lunch had an amazing meal. Our server, Stefani, was extremely attentive and very nice. Asking us if we had what we needed checked on us several times. Will definitely go back. Thanks for the inviting atmosphere
Yet another wonderful meal at Symposium in Cobourg. As usual, the service from Stefani - and all the staff - was excellent. The Fettuccine Alfredo, with plenty of chicken and mushrooms, was delicious and the equally delicious Fish Tacos had at least twice as much fish as any other restaurant I have been to. We come here regularly and will continue to do so.
Had the pleasure of having a dinner out with my husband the other night at Symposium Cobourg. We had the dinner for 2 special and felt it was great value for the money. It includes an appetizer, 2 entrees, 2 beverages and a dessert to share. The food and service was excellent and we will definitely be back.
Worst food I ve ever had. Ordered wings. They cost $16 for 6 wings! They were dried out and cold. Our waitress Stefanie was lovely and beyond apologetic. Next came out the cook. Her uniform was filthy she didn t even seem to understand what we were complaining about. She said thank you and that s it! I will NEVER go back to this Cobourg restaurant again nor will my friend! We are very well connected to community in Northumberland County and will make sure to spread the word! Disgusting!!! Parking: Nope! Will not! I will write a review online and on social media and spread the word.
The manage Crystal was very pleasant I recommend this Cafe highly
Booked a party if 7. We wanted to sit in the patio for a pre dinner drink but because of construction we couldnt. We have been to the Symposium in Ajax many times where the food and service has always been good. For some reason this one failed. Four of the meals were bland. The service considering the resturant was empty was poor. Only 6 places set, I had to ask for a seventh menu it came but without knife and fork which we had to ask for. The server was courteous enough but could have been more attentive, overall not impressed. But acknowledge many other previous positive reviews.
Amazing taste, loved every bite
The vanilla amaretto affogato and the mochachino cheesecake were smooth and delicious.
Overall a fine place to dine. The food was enjoyable and service was as it should be but nothing exceptional for a traditional breakfast. My only complaint, if you could call it that, was the price. 20-25 dollars for a breakfast is a little on the high side. Albeit most of the items are more than an average breakfast. For those that are just looking for a traditional breakfast, consisting of bacon, eggs, potatoes and toast, this is not the place for you. The bacon is parchment paper thin and the price is way above average. You are better off going to stacks... Just saying. But if you are adventurous and want something a little different then the norm then this is the place for you. Overall Id give this establishment a thumbs up! Well done Symposium! Thanks for breakfast:)
First time and loved everything, food,service, and a very cozy atmosphere,
Service was great, food excellent great atmosphere too!
The food, service and atmosphere were EXCELLENT!..We ordered the bruscetta and vegetarian flatbread offerings w/salad on the side...DELICIOUS and good portions ..The prices were reasonable and the staff, very friendly and prompt..we will return for sure!
Expensive, wait staff I had was extremely attentive, others less so and appeared to be troubled by customers arriving.
I have not been at Symposium in a while, so I was looking forward to the meal. I ordered a chicken teriyaki bowl. It was swimming in sauce, and some veggies were burned. My husband got Portuguese style chicken, and roasted potatoes were overcooked. Chicke was dry. Got carrot cake as I remembered it being great before. It was dry and not fresh. Only 2 writers were on site, with one being busy sorting some utensils and service was super slow. Will not come back. Its not worth the money.
Amazing service, food really good! Comfy booths, will be back!
Everything was fantastic and the service is perfect, had a great time and would recommend to friends and family.
Came for supper on a Tuesday not knowing it was pasta night. My husband and I had the build your own pasta, another guest had the chicken parmesan and another the burger. Everything was delicious and nobody went home hungry. Our server Emma was a gem, extremely friendly, professional and attentive. Well definitely be back.
Great food. Very sweet and friendly bar tender. Loved the Ginger mule. My kids loved the food just like we did. Definitely a hidden jem. Kids eat free Sunday!
Very delicious as it has been before, we will return!
Ok. Not horrible, yet not memorable.
On Saturday, February 3rd, several family members traveled to Coburg from different parts of Ontario to attend our nephews hockey tournament. A group of us, ranging in age from 8 years to 70 plus, went to your Symposium. Your staff made each of us feel welcomed and comfortable. Our server Lauryn was excellent: friendly, knowledgeable, professional. Our food choices were from all parts of your menu..good variety offered. Despite the different preparations and times involved, our meals were served perfectly prepared, and delivered to the table at the same time. Based on my very positive experience, I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending your restaurant, your menu, your chef, and your server Lauryn, to anyone. Your menu prices were pretty much restaurant norm...our meals were $20 -$30 range...location easily found, parking ample...restaurant itself well-organized and comfortable. Thanks for a lovely family reunion meal! Barb M. Leitch
Perfect place for the dessert lover.
Good food, good people. Need to stop deep frying the morning sausage
Lovely staff and service was great. The food options were pleantyful and delicious. Leave room for dessert!
So good. Cant wait to go back.
Thank you Jillian
Symposium is an average diner. The food is okay, the coffee is quite good, and its quiet.
Excellent
Jillian is the best server ever !!! We had a small party for our boss .. 6 people and she was part of the experience .. she even took our group photo. The food, service and atmosphere is everything you would want in a wonderful evening out. It is now our favourite place in Cobourg. Thank you Jillian !!!
Cobourg classic!
First time in Symposium restaurant in Cobourg, Ontario. The food was excellent, the server was very friendly and provided excellent service. I believe I have found a gem of a restaurant. Will definitely return for another breakfast or lunch or dinner. Excellent place to eat with great atmosphere
Honestly, didnt have high hopes for this place. I couldnt have been more wrong. The menu seems blah, but all the food is prepared well and seasoned, except the fries, which isnt a huge deal. Our server didnt write a single thing down and remembered all of it. If she thought you might have messed something up she double checked with us before anything could become an issue. She was very knowledgeable about the menu and could make very good recommendations. Also, there was 12 of us, 5 kids 7 adults, we were there on a Sunday so 5 of the kids meals were free, which I dont think they have to do in this day and age. Give it a try, its a lot better than most places in the area.
Love coming here! The service is always so great, fast and friendly. Comfortable atmosphere, clean and of course the food is delicious! I m surprised it s not busier than it is
Great food and service. No room for dessert, so well have to go back.
We had a great time here yesterday with my entire family food and service was exceptional, we definitely recommend!
Great food and service Arghavan Rastegari Food : 5/5
Came here for breakfast and lunch. The menu is to large for having a good quality among the many different culinary options. The chicken sluvaki dinner is literally made as though an American made it. No authentic flavours at all. The spicy aioli served with the sweet potato fries is literally just mayo. The amount of spice added is just enough to change the colour to orange, not the flavour. The club sandwich has no mayo on it, leaving the flavour profile somewhat bland without any fat content. Some of the menu items have a unique ingredient that does not benefit the dish. Dill in rice and raw cinnamon sprinkled all over a latte. The service can be somewhat slow. Our orders were also wrong or missing ingredients. The latte looks like nothing like the picture on the menu. The chocolate ice cream affegato was half the size of the picture and missing the hazelnuts and whipped cream. I ordered a cafe mocha and received a cafe latte instead, which was an error from the kitchen. The BLT and Carrot Cake were good items. This place is a cafe, as said in its name. Unfortunately they market their menu as a regular restaurant and since they are not a restaurant but a cafe their menu items are all over the place, sometimes mediocre, and sometimes extremely lacking in quality. As a cafe the options are lacking. It s honestly a restaurant not a cafe. While I wouldn t jump at the idea of coming here there are some good menu items and the pricing for the most part is good.
Great food. OK, prices. Nice staff.
Lovely brunch with my friend ! Thank you Carol. Vegetarian options: Variety ! Parking: Lots of option
Bad taste with good ambience!!
We were a larger group of 10. Of the 10, only one of us was satisfied with meal. Sister had the Portuguese Chicken, which is chicken thighs that were grey in color and dry. My meal tasted fine but was cold when served. My husband had ordered the same, and his came out scalding hot.
Amazing food!! Wonderful service! Food
Worst butter chicken I ve ever had
Food was stale and cold.
Great breakfast, great service, especially managing a party of 30!
The food was amazing and the waiting time was very short. It has a great atmosphere and great prices. Its totally a 5/5
I really like this place, but was confused by the menu saying fried chicken when it was more like chicken tenders. It was good but not fried chicken.
Great service and waiters.
Excellent service to a difficult table of 22 people with rambunctious kids.
Delicious! Totally worth the price and the waitress we had was very nice
Paul and I enjoyed a lovely breakfast here this morning in Cobourg , Ontario. Were staying at the best Western plus and this is a recommend Parking: Lots Wheelchair accessibility: Lots of room to navigate
A great option when you find yourself looking for food after 9:00.
Tasty food
Food was delicious! The eggs Benedict was amazing. Coffee was really good as was the OJ. Our server, Crystal, was very friendly and helpful. We will be back! Thank you Kid-friendliness: Great kids menu
AMAZING food and service! Would eat there again anytime. Our host Inder was incredibly polite and friendly. I wish every restaurant experience was like this!!
What a great place to grab some breakfast!!! The service was excellent. The food was amazing. 10 out of 10
Always good service and its evident that the cooks in the kitchen actually know how to cook. Ive ate breakfast and dinner there and order tricky items such as eggs Benedict and salmon. Both cooked to perfection. The servers are nice and the Manager is very personable and always checks on the tables.
Forgot how Frickin DEELICIOUS their food was! Crystal makes a KILLER Caesar and offers great service with a smile all gone! Parking: Easy parking options are a bonus!
We stopped there on a trip back to Montreal. The food was very good! Lots of choices in the menu. Decent prices. Highly recommend. Food
Very polite, clean experience. Very good service and a good price. Our server inveer was very hospitable and attentive.
Cons: Service, portions and atmosphere do not hold up to the Symposium standard. I d give this a miss. Pros: the bacon was Smokey and a standout. Kid-friendliness: A high chair and crayons were offered and appreciated
Excellent food and staff. Quiet atmosphere.
Crystal was a fantastic server, very polite and accommodating. Loved the atmosphere and music, very lovely. Would come back and recommend! Parking: Easy and accessible.
Portions were good. We asked for a bottle of wine, since it was Friday and 50% off bottles, waitress never brought it. I asked for my Pad Thai to not be spicy, it was spicy. It was tasty, but the spice ruined it. And the restaurant was FREEZING. We work our coats.
Great experience for a big wedding party group brunch
They went above and beyond. They ran out of straws and went to the store to pick some up! Amazingly, kind service! They didn t need to do that but putting forth that extra effort was so impressive! The food was alright. Nothing exciting but it was enjoyable. We ordered the California chicken sandwich which was good, soup was ok and Mediterranean omelette. The staff were superb!
First time there and will go back. Vegetarian options: Tons of salads to pick from Parking: Lots of it, FREE and beautiful views Kid-friendliness: Lots of kiddie meals to.pick from and tresats Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access....sanitation machine for hands.
Parking: Free parking lots Food
Isaac was and incredible server. Polite, knowledgeable and made our visit one to remember :) He gave us space to review the menu and enjoy our time together without making us feel rushed. The food was delicious as always and the patio is one of our favourite spots. Highly recommend!
Service was excellent, a little slow for the food to arrive but not too long. Good portion size.
Nice atmosphere!
44 bucks for 2 coffees and 2 small breakfast.. tiny portions, tiny eggs, store bought deep fried sausage. Would not recommend.
Dont have the zucchini pasta option. Way too much zucchini and too few of other veggies for the price! Vegetarian options: Poor value
Please dont make me go back. Not good. To start, the menu has four thousand items on it and is the size of a god damn wall map. That was the first red flag. Soup is mediocre at best. Ribs were...ok but cold. Club sandwich doesnt come with sauce? And who in the hell thought it would be a good idea to serve that putrid, dishwater coleslaw? Then there was the fancy, rock hard cookie with cheap ice milk. At least the beer was cold.
Really good food. And great service !
Awesome food. Fantastic service.The staff go above and beyond.
The food was fantastic. Service was great. Our server Isaac made you feel so welcome. Definitely will be back!
Excellent service by Dawson, great portion sizes and delicious food. Will be back.
Beyond Meat burger cooked perfectly. Many places over cook it. Tuscan tomato bean soup very good! Server was excellent!
The mojitos sucked, but everything else was great.
The food is great, Weve been there a few times and every time the food is good.
Visited here on two occasions now and both times the food and service have been excellent. They make the best Iced cappuccinos ever. Would highly recommend a visit
Isaac is wonderful!
Isaac was a very good server
Great service. Wonderful atmosphere. We will be back. Food : 5/5
The food is always fresh and delicious here! Krista served us and she was so friendly and helpful. Great atmosphere, one of our favourite places to eat in Cobourg
Had a great meal; burger and side salad tasted great! Vegetarian options: Went with a vegan friend who found a few customizable options to choose from. Food : 5/5 |
We came early in the morning and our server Crystal was amazing and beyond! She was super responsive and friendly. Will definitely recommend the place to others. 10/10
Dinner was delicious . Waiter Dawson was polite respectful interactive and considerate . Job will done !
Worst meal in a long time, would not recommend. Nice place, looks clean, friendly waiter but God awful food. After getting seated and then no one coming for 15 minutes we almost walked out (about 10 other people in the restaurant). Fish was like rubber, HAIR IN THE GRAVY, fries way over done and wifes chicken bacon club was as dry as the desert. After the hair, rubber fish and burnt fries, I sent my fish back but was so hungry it was all I could do to choke down half my wifes sandwich (asked for Mayo but never came). She couldnt even eat it. Waste of money. No problem paying for the drinks but the food was awful (they didnt charge for the fish but charged $20 for an almost un edible sandwich). Save some money and go to Arthurs across the street for some good food.
Came in for a brunch date, the food and service were both excellent. Very friendly staff, and I will absolutely be coming back in the near future!
We had an amazing eating experience and our waiter Jillian was just absolutely INCREDIBLE would highly recommend!!
Great food, great service, great latte
Do not go there if you have a large group. After 2 hours a few people still didn t have food and had to give up and find alternative for food.
The only reason this is not a 5 star is the price to what you get ratio. The food was great! The coffee was terrible, which ended up deciding not to upgrade our drinks to specialty coffees for the end. Were not done with this place, well give them another go and hope it was just a bad pot. Service was amazing, friendly and the food was hot and tasty.
This place has it. That relaxing good time, with delicious food, and great customer service. We have made breakfast our regular thing. We happen to get Noelle majority of the time. She s absolutely great. But when she s not around, the remaining staff is just as kind and helpful. Definitely would recommend eating or having a drink here. Plus the morning Mimosas are awesome!
The breakfast of champions vegetarian omelette is listed as sautéed portobello mushrooms, black beans, bell peppers, tomatoes, zucchini, red onions, cilantro, garlic sauce. Served with breakfast potatoes and toast. (800 Cals) The menu doesn t say it s filled with copious amounts of bbq(?) sauce. The eggs themselves were great and the potatoes too, but the sauce was overpowering and most vegetables were lost in it because it was just drowning. Really wish the menu said it was going to have this sauce because I would have avoided it. Service was lovely though.
Our waitress was awesome Parking: Excellent place Food : 5/5 |
I reserved a table for ten at this restaurant. What an absolute disappointment. The food was just awful. Three people ordered the Teriyaki chicken hardly no chicken and it was so loaded with the sauce. The butter chicken ok..but the rice awful. Two had the steak and they both had so much barbecue sauce. Desserts were dry. Never again will I ever reserve at this restaurant the food is nothing like other Symposiums I have been in .
Quality food and staff. Ive been to a few Symposuims and Ive always had a good experience.
I would put NO stars if I could! The waiter had the personality of a stale ham sandwich! He forgot part of our order, and was rude, the appetizer of pita and hummus was served with VANILLA yogurt with spinach! It was terrible! , and my main course was awful as well. I informed the waiter about the vanilla yogurt as it must be a mistake and he did nothing! No attempt to fix the situation or any apology for the bad service or food! We will Never go back!!
Our server Carol was amazing. We go to Cobourg once a month and always have to have a meal at your location. Parking: Parking is very easy and accessible for me with mobility challenge
