Went out for a late supper tonight! Food was amazing, Wings were perfect, and spinach dip per usual was fantastic. Our server Yvonne was absolutely amazing and extremely helpful, answering all the questions we had and giving us a wonderful evening. She’s amazing at her job and her service definitely deserves to be noticed!

Wonderful dinner as always. Our server Sue greeted us quickly and grabbed our drink order. She checked in several times as we considered our order and was quick to bring them out as they were made. The broccoli and cheddar soup and the 4 cheese Spinach dip were delicious as always!

Dined at Kelsey's with my family recently. The food was great! We have a busy couple of kids, and it’s always nice when the servers recognize this. Our server Erica was amazing and very accommodating in ensuring that we where served quickly. She made it a point to check on us on a regular basis to make sure we where doing well! Not to mention she was great with the kids!

Not a full review because we couldn't even try the food. Not sure why we were turned away to be sat on the patio with my 10lb puppy in a stroller. I've been to many Kelsey's and affiliated restaurants and dogs are always allowed on the patio. Luckily, the Crazy Horse next door welcomed us with open arms to their patio and with the same Thursday half price wing special.

If I can give 0 Stars i would the food was that bad. I ordered the goat cheese, beets garden salad with chicken breast, how can you mess that up. Tiny cube beets was so mushy my salads was swimming in oil and half was garden salade with big chunks of iceberg lettuce. 2 little pieces of goat cheese. But the worst was half or more of my salade was rotten. My daughter annd my husband order wings and sweet potato fries how in the world you can serve stone cold sweet potato fries that are so mushy and wings that is supposed to be crispy was probably sitting on the counter for 1/2 hour. My friend order same salad lucky her didn’t have the iceberg lettuce, but her shrimp was not Cajun just old plain shrimp. The toilets smell so strong that I almost threw up. The doors to the toilet are also so sticky. Never again 100$ for the worst food I ever eat. Please spend your money in a better place.

I recently dined at Kelseys, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The food was absolutely delicious—we liked all the dishes except the nachos! I especially loved the fajita; it was so delicious. Overall, Kelsey’s exceeded our expectations, and we’ll definitely be returning soon!

Their new look will definitely draw more business. The new decor is more bright to show off the new digs. It's a roadhouse with a very inviting welcome. The service staff were all friendly and attentive. We started off with a Full Plate chili nachos and was split between four guys; we found it was ample amount . I would order again. It was 1/2 price wing night, so we as men, it was our duty to try the wings. The verdict? Hey.. it was 1/2 price wings, tasty, but not too meaty. I would like to try the wings on another night to compare. The patio is also nicely decorated. A nice vibe. The old Kelsey, I would go there once a year, but now easily triple that. A big thumbs up, overall. Update: August 2024. The nachos with chicken had to be sent back because there was only a dusting of cheese and had arrived stone cold. The 2nd offering of nachos had more cheese, but this time lacked chicken. I would not order the nachos again. But, the server did remove the nachos from our bill.

The waiter didnt seem really interested in serving us. Each time, he arrived quickly and left just as quickly, without any real politeness or attention. Decent food, we always enjoy Kelseys. Update 2024-12-02 : After a new visit, the service and atmosphere was far superior to the first one. Things have improved. Kid-friendliness: Good place for kids. Large choice.

1st trip in was not good. service was non-existent, because I had to get our own cutlery and napkins myself. Even when the food did arrive, it was incorrect and sloppy. When our concerns were brought up to the bar supervisor, Siobhan, who handled everything with professionalism and poise, offering a 25$ gift card for our troubles and to inspire us to come back and try again. So, we come back for our second meal, and after a hard day out and about, we bit our lips and suggest going back to Kelseys again, it didnt go well. For a second time in days, our server forgot about us a few times and when our food did arrive it was undercooked and over dressed. We asked to speak to the kitchen manager, Sean, who unlike the first occasion, seemed un-phased and un bothered by our concerns. Telling us that he will let his staff know about our issues (I had to put the salad in his hands and ask him to show his staff how not to make a salad), it wasnt doing us any good on the table, to be looked at. He did remember us and after all that had happened over those 2 visits, it seemed they were happy to let us walk out and not come back. We heard you loud and clear Kelseys, we wont be coming back and suggest anyone reading this to use caution, think twice about spending your money here.

I dont do many reviews, really none, but I said I would and I now have. Addition: my wing order is always large 15 pieces, breaded, Sea Salt & Pepper, with hot sauce and sour cream on the side.

I have visited this restaurant three times this summer. The first two times, the food and service was spectacular. The service we received tonight was the worst I have ever experienced. I recognize that people have bad days, but our waitress was not up to par. There was confusion over our drink orders, and a backward moment when the waitress realized she had brought my friend 10oz wine rather than the 8 she ordered, and the waitress tried taking away her wine, when she has had a sip. Our meals came out at different times. My Alfredo pasta had obviously been sitting under the heat lamp for a while. It was dry and bland. One of the salads came out with onions, when it had been requested that they be left out. It took quite a while for a salad to be brought back to the table, and rather than remake it, it had obviously been riffled through to remove them. They missed some. Our food was served, without any cutlery. We had asked our waitress when she left with the onion salad to provide us with cutlery, but after many minutes, we got up and asked a different server for some. Our waitress checked on us only once, only after we were done eating. I tried to leave a comment via the Kelsey s website- I would select the location, and when submitting, it would blank it out so the comment would not submit.

We went for 1/2 price wing night and our server, Haley, made our meal super. She was very attentive, accommodated all our requests with a genuine smile and provided excellent service throughout. Not to mention the wings were perfect - delicious, piping hot and huge. Parking: Lots of free parking right out front. Kid-friendliness: We were asked if we wanted a kids menu right at the door, our 11 yo was treated with the same friendliness and respect as the adults at the table.

Excellent service and food. Love the gluten free options so everyone has lots of options. Their house dressing was really nice and not runny which tasted yummy. Another waitress even noticed that our drinks were low and brought over water without being asked. Definitely recommend the Kanata Kelseys. Dietary restrictions: Great gluten free options.

The Ceasar the bartender nade was absolutely the best I have ever had. I was however quite disappointed in my sirloin. It was perfectly cooked but it was bland. I never had a steak that was so tasteless. The staff was amazing considering it was 2pm. The Cajun shrimp appetizer was amazing. My wifes club sandwich was absolutely amazing. Again I cannot put enough emphasis on how on point the Ceasar was. Nothing fancy, just perfect!

My buddy and I often go to the Kelseys in Barrhaven for wing night on Thursday, but decided to give the Centrum location a try. The wings were top-notch as always, and very affordable. You cant beat half-price wings and $6 twenty-one ounce Budweiser. The only difference is that our server / bartender wasnt overly friendly compared to the servers at the Barrhaven location. He was pleasant but bland, hard to find at times and didnt crack a smile even once. Were heading back to Barrhaven next time. Nothing wrong with any other aspect of our experience but the Barrhaven staff are just so friendly, bubbly and accommodating that its worth the extra drive for us.

My daughter and I went in for wings and nachos around 8. We were seated right away. Our server Erica came to the table and was very friendly. She took our drink orders right away. The drinks came quickly. She then took our food order. Honestly from the very beginning was so friendly. Always smiling. It was a long day for us and we were both hungry and tired. It was nice to be greeted so warmly. When we were ordering food she was so patient with our questions about the menu. Helping us choose and making suggestions or recommendations. She was flexible if we wanted to make modifications. The customer service was absolutely fantastic!! throughout the meal she would check on to make sure everything was always good and we had what we needed. Great customer service sadly doesn t get recognized enough. A huge Shout out to Erica who was the best server we ve had in a very long time. Now we only want to be seated in her section the next time we are there!! Thank you Erica for being so amazing and making it an outstanding dinner experience for my daughter and I. We will now be recommending the Kelsey s in Kanata and Erica to our friends and family.

Me and my friend came for dinner and we re welcomed with nothing but amazing service! Sue was our server, she was very engaged and gave us great recommendations. Even though it was a busy rodeo night, everything came out pretty quickly and she made sure everything was to our liking. I would highly recommend the beat and goat cheese salad (thanks Sue )

Went for happy hour - tasty appetizers. Restaurant was packed yet all food was served quickly and hot. Our server Sue was great. She was so busy yet she was still so attentive to our table. Great attitude considering how swamped it was.

Food is always SO GOOD here so we come often for lunch! Decided to sit on the patio and most tables were pretty wobbly, we put some napkins under - no big deal. Service is generally really wonderful, however today is was quite slow and server didnt seem sure and wasnt very friendly overall. Ordered 15 wings for the special, but they rang in 10. Asked for breaded and received non breaded. Went to the service station to get our own wetnaps etc as they seem flustered and a kitchen staff member was even running food out to the 4 tables outside. Once we got the bills, mine was $28 and I gave $40 cash which I was asked if I wanted any change...I am always taken back when someone asks this question as when I am serving I always give back any change without asking (even if it is 50 cents). Great service certainly deserves a great tip, but this visit did not warrant a $12 tip on a $28 bill.

We were waiting for more than 30 minutes to order. The waitress showed up after a while and told us she is the only one here. One of us had a few questions about the menu, but she left without finishing our order telling us she has to take the other tables menu. She never got back to us. Very disappointing service.

Meh...I was hungry so I ate. My food was cold but my friends wasnt. We were promised ketchup that never came. So we had to flag down someone else who happened to be looking our way. Our server was so focused on the table across us, she barely looked our way. Decided to ask for the bill when she decided to show up just in case she disappeared again and it took forever to leave.. yeah... Not going back

The kid s meal pizza we ordered for our toddler was mouldy. We let our server know, who said she didn t see it but brought it back to the kitchen and said the kitchen staff didn t see it and it was just flour pockets and it couldn t be mouldy because of how many they go through. Bits of flour on bread aren t green. Mould isn t indicative of something always sitting around for a long time. We received a coupon for a free spinach dip which the server made it seem like they were really going out of their way to do.
