It was extremely busy, we did not have a reservation and the staff still found a way for us to have a table. Great staff and the food was great. The steak was cooked perfectly. I tried the cheesecake for dessert, which was really good as well.

Everything was excellent -service, atmosphere, quality of food and taste. Lovely local restaurant offering fine dining in a smaller venue (not large and noisy like larger restaurants), which made it more of an intimate cozy experience. I will definitely be returning again and again. 👍🏽👍🏽 P.S. the saganaki was the best I've been served st a restaurant

The food should always be the star of the show, and here at Arch it is! Sophistication meets simplicity in such a beautiful way. Me and my fiancee loved our meals. The atmosphere was wonderfully delightful. Would recommend to everyone. Service was second to none. Diego looked after us, he was amazing, never skipped a beat. A true professional at every turn.

Went on July 27th to celebrate my 62nd birthday with a couple friends, my granddaughter and my husband. Reservation was for 8 and we arrived shortly before. We were told they were busy and running a bit late which is to be expected at times. Once seated the only table was a bit small but, we managed until a bigger table opened up and they graciously moved us to that table. Food was excellent and service was great. Sorry no pictures as we were not using our phones during dinner.

The T-bone steak was extremely disappointing. It was chewy and underseasoned but it was cooked perfectly medium rare. The onion soup on the other hand, is one of the best soups I've ever had. The ambiance was nice, and the servers were friendly.

Took the ol lady out for a birthday dinner. The fish was crispy, fresh, seasoned tremendously. The Parm was divine with a gravy that would make momma jealous. Only comment is they could update the interior.. although some enjoy a traditional ambience.

I had a wonderful meal here on Saturday Feb 10/24. I was in town for work and dining solo on a night many Valentine couples were there however I received excellent service. I enjoyed an Espresso Martini, flambé Greek cheese with warm pita, an excellent Filet Mignon with roasted potatoes, mushrooms and el denté carrots ( the way I like them/ not over cooked), red wine and a Spanish coffee. It was a busy night with many patrons talking animatedly and I found the background music a bit loud ( maybe meant to drown the chatter) and the music wasn’t conducive to a leisurely meal imo. However the best, most tender and flavourful steak that I’ve had in a LONG time. Definitely a memorable meal- TY

My experience at the Arch was amazing! The staff is friendly, personable and tentative. The food was so delicious! Everything had amazing flavor, it was cooked to perfection and tasted so good. The prices were reasonable, and can be pricey if you go with steak/seafood/wine, but they have cheaper menu options and a kids menu as well. This place will definitely go on my favorites list, definitely worth a visit!

A Culinary Adventure: From Shirley Temples to Steak Snafus Gather round, friends, for a tale of taste, temperament, and a dash of dry humor. My recent dining escapade was an unforgettable mix of highs and lows. Picture this: A welcoming ambiance, a server with an engaging international flair, and me, eager to treat myself and a dear chef friend from Austria. Our mood was as effervescent as the Shirley Temple I ordered Ontario style, of course, with Sprite, Grenadine, and orange juice. Alas, the delivery of my Temple was a bit...templed, with unexpected execution and an overabundance of ice. I graciously offered a humble lesson in glass-portion symphony, but the second rendition still missed the mark. Determined to sip and savor undeterred, I let it slide. Next came the calamari, which is notoriously tricky to perfect. Yet, much to our delight, their rendition was commendably crispy, earning them a gold star in our seafood-loving hearts. Then came my entrée: Gulf Shrimp & Steak, or as I like to call it, the Arches Special. The shrimp aced the texture test but bombed the salt portfolio it was like the chef had a vendetta against blood pressure. Still, it was palatable enough for me to soldier through. Vegetables on the plate were seasoned superbly, presenting a vibrant medley that danced on the palate, just enough to make one forgive the slightly exaggerated lemon zest in the potatoes. My friend handed it a pass, but I rather enjoyed the tangy surprise. Now, onto the pièce de résistance or not. The maple bacon-wrapped steak was a curious character in our culinary narrative. In my humble opinion, it seemed a misguided marriage on the plate. Steak purists like myself prefer our prime cuts to shine solo, unhindered by sweet distractions. I bravely voiced my dissatisfaction, yet the shrimp massacre was ultimately overshadowed by the unfortunate union of maple bacon and beef. The grand finale featured an unexpected twist: The owner herself swept onto the scene as I prepared to pay my dues. She bestowed upon me a narrative of her establishment s illustrious tenure, with a side serving of machismo-infused jest about my choice of drink. I chuckled a Shirley Temple suits any man who values flavor over convention. Despite her thinly veiled skepticism, I assured her my intention was not to evade the bill, but rather to acknowledge our delightful server and his global gastronomical wisdom with a well-deserved gratuity. In sum, my friend and I sought sustenance and critique, navigated some shark-infested dishes, and emerged with full bellies and spirited humor. As a fellow business owner who appreciates culinary candor, I believe in the value of feedback, whether bitter or sweet. Ill be returning for Ribfest, ready to rally more mouths and minds to the cause. Bon appétit, and cheers to future adventures with fewer hiccups and heartier laughs!

I just read the most recent review left by a fellow foodie and am shocked by his review. You are not a critic in New York but rather trying to have a good meal in a small town. The Arch is one of the best restaurants in the area and has been for decades. If you dont like their perfectly cooked and flavoured steaks or their staff and atmosphere I suggest you try elsewhere and let us enjoy this jem in Midland.

The dinner was good, a little salty for my liking. Although, I have been trying to reduce the intake recently. Lol!. My Ribeye Delmonico was cooked to order perfectly. However, it had a lot of fat, and I definitely wont be ordering that again. My spouse had the Pickerel, she enjoyed that. We shared a baked feta for an appetizer, which was very nice . I enjoyed a nice aperitif, whisky sour. And a glass of house red (Cab), very dry but full flavor. The letdown was my choice of dessert. I went with the Double Chocolate Cake $8. 1st, I think I got the $4 slice, 2nd, Im glad I got the $4 slice because it was stale from the fridge, ridiculous, in an atmosphere like this you serve fresh desserts only or none ar all please, even if you take a loss do not close out the meal with subpar nonsense. I did eat it to fulfill my sweet tooth.. BTW, there is no $4.00 slice. Service was professional and friendly staff are attentive. Would have given a better rating had the cake been better Parking: I found a spot fairly easy in front of restaurant.

We were greeted and was told it would be about 2 minutes and would be seated. We were promptly seated and greeted by bus boy and then the waitress. We ordered drinks and shortly after our order was taken. The service was excellent and the meal was served in a very timely manner. Our meals were delicious. Staff were very friendly and we were so impressed with the bus boy and was he very engaging and it was only his second shift on New Years eve. Would highly recommend this restaurant.

My husband organized a surprise Mother s Day dinner for myself and his mother. We were a party of 5 (including 1 child). We drove 2 hours with a 4:30 pm reservation for dinner. We arrived a little early and were taken in at 4:00. Our waitress was wonderful. She was quick and understanding when we needed a little more time. We started with salads and I must say - the absolute best Greek and Caesar salads I have tasted! We were served delicious, warm rolls with butter. Between the adults we had shrimp, steak and schnitzel. Everything was seasoned and cooked to perfection. I dislike cooked carrots immensely but somehow they were able to make them taste great!! Our waitress was attentive and quick to refill our drinks and take dishes away from the table. She spoke to us like she was an old friend :) I truly have nothing negative to say about this experience. Everything about it made it worth the 2 hour drive. We will definitely return! Thank you for helping make this one of the best Mother s Days ever!!

The restaurant is extremely dated, a steakhouse stuck in the 80s with plating and food presentation no better than what you would find at a Mr Greeks or Kelseys. While the food tasted good, when a chef cuts into your steak to check its temperature, you know you are paying fine dining prices for pub house quality. We were a table of 14, this restaurant cleaned house at a 6$ surcharge to upgrade ur salad to Caesar and the wait staff dont disclose the amount they just say its a chargeable upgrade. Overall disappointing experience. Fool me once!

Had a great anniversary meal here. Starters were cheesy garlic bread and mozzarella sticks. They were fine, not amazing but a long way from bad. There were other starters that I would have preferred but we also had to satisfy our childrens choices. Mains, Ribeye Steak was cooked fantastically and was very enjoyable. Mediterranean Striploin, again was cooked as requested and very enjoyable. The kids fries were very happy with their grilled cheese however their fries were a little dry/powdery textured which drew some complaints from them. Baklawa for desert was amazing. Overall we were very happy with the meal but our feeling was more that this was a Greek influenced restaurant more than a Steakhouse so we would probably lean more to that side of ordering when we visit again. If the kids fries had been better this would have been a 5* experience for us. Parking: Whilst there is a free parking lot I can see it filling up fast, the restaurant seemed very popular and was packed at 1800 on a Wednesday night. Kid-friendliness: Kids loved seeing the flambe showpiece around the restaurant. Waiter was good with the children and listened to their orders.

I have been to this restaurant numerous times for special occasion birthday celebrations. It has always been fabulous. I would tell everybody what a great restaurant it was a little bit more pricey than most, but well worth it however, I attended there on Saturday with a reservation early and we were very rushed we felt like they just wanted to get us out as fast as they could to see the next person. It was not even busy yet, they brought the check when I was still eating dinner. It was my birthday they were told it was a celebration and my friend had to remind them after they brought the check we had the lamb chops. They were OK nothing special. I normally get the pickeral for dinner and I love it. It s fabulous , very disappointing with the service this time. Don t know if I will be raving about it or returning anytime soon for that kind of money.

Very poor experience, our experience was for a friends 60th Birthday and based on the price point of the meals the steak was full of grizzled and I ordered a baked potato with my meal only to have it substituted with an other style of potato with out being told first and given a option of my choice due to no baked potatoes. Other friends had under cooked scallops that they sent back to be cooked more then being told that the cook said they were cooked and she would not get sick . What ever happened to the paying customers decision on their food at these price points for meals.

This was the absolute best service I have ever seen and I come from a background of managing 2 5-star restaurants. We provided the dessert (they set it up), they pulled together an amazing spread of appetizers and brought in my favourite wines for me.

Had our 47th wedding anniversary dinner here tonight. We ordered the Filet Mignon for two. Wow! Cooked to perfection, melt in your mouth delicious, and good portion of foods. My compliments to the chef again, she did a wonderful job. Alex, thanks again for your service and that scrumptious Lemon Coconut sponge cake. That was a nice treat and a perfect ending to a perfect meal. Will definitely be returning to The Arch to try the other menu items. Thanks again. Phil and Donna

Giving 5 stars because its the most I can give. Between the food, the service, and the wonderful family that has owned this restaurant for years I wish I could give 10 stars!

Decided to try The Arch after many years living in the area and not going. We were met by the owner, a very professional and polite young man that also served us. He was fun and attentive to our needs and made our dining experience all that much better. I ordered the rib steak and lobster and I have to say both were outstanding! Cooked perfectly and so tasty. My wife ordered the chicken souvlaki and loved her meal as well. We will definitely start frequenting this restaurant more often after such a great experience.

Went to dine with The Arch and can say, we were a bit disappointed from our previous experiences. To start, it was a hot day and their air conditioning did not even feel like it was working, so I mentioned it to our server who stated, it was on and working. To me, there is nothing worse than dining and the temperature in the dining room is making me perspire. We then had our bread and salad, that came as part of our steak dinners. I had the market salad and there was one cherry tomato and one slice of cucumber. The rest was all lettuce. When they brought our basket of bread (there were two small pieces??) Though the bread was delightful, we asked for more and felt a bit uncomfortable doing so. The steak we had was impeccable and the roasted potatoes and vegetables were perfect. Quite a pricey meal to say the least.......(one beer and one coke), do dessert and no appetizer. $150 including tip. Not sure if we will go back. We have been several times, but there are other places to consider that are not quite as expensive and you can dine in comfort and not be sweating through your entire meal.

Worst service Ive ever received. Steaks were served overcooked, and instead of apologizing and rectifying the problem, the owner came out and loudly berated me stating that they are the only good steakhouse in town and they dont need my business. I will NEVER return.

I really wish there was a minus setting here!!! I ate there 4 years ago and loved every second of it the service the food ot was perfect. This time around the server was rude and treated my group of 12 like we belong in a trailer park and Luke we had no right to be there!! It was gross!! The food was sub par at best and there was no effort put forward by anyone! My wife asked for everulyone to be served at once yet my children got served first, asked for water and even tho the server was there they were told to serve another table?!! The owners need to go and retire and stop taking thier displeasure outnon the customers!! Minus 10 rating....... dont waste your time nor money here ever!!

We came for a staff dinner tonight - we are a loud fun bunch and we re sorry for the guests that we were too loud for, truly. However, Stacey was freaking amazing and from one server/manager to the next she is absolutely incredible. To the kitchen staff well done team! Everything was exceptional and we enjoyed everything. The line up on Sunday night was out the door so reservations would be helpful im sure! But from The Dillon s team thank you so much for letting us experience your restaurant and staff and food. We were a happy and full!! Cheers to a job well done!

They basically asked us to leave as we were taking to long and the next seating was waiting. Anastasia rude and unnaceptable. It was a 1 year anniversary of our best friend Franks wife passing after 50 years of marriage. The entire family was there. Shame on the Arch

An elegant place for some fine dining. The food was excellent, the service was amazing. However, what really baffles me is the lack of Canadian content on the wine list, there are fourty six wines available from twelve countries, including Canada, but sadly there are only two wines available from Canadian wineries. Ontario and British Columbia compete on a world class scale and win many Gold awards each year for our wines, Id like to see a lot more Canadian content on the wine list.

Our visit last Wednesday was very disappointing. We were here 2 years ago and were so impressed we said we would drive here again from mississauga just for dinner. Never again, this time was horrid. I paid $40.00 for a steak that was dry, black and tasteless. The service was extremely slow and when the server finally came and asked how everything was I was honest. She came back and said she spoke to the manager and they offered to deduct the cost of the steak and charge me for my rice veggies and salad. Not the point I came to have a nice dinner and nowhere near the case this time. Very disappointing the manager was aware of the situation and couldnt be bothered to even take the time and come to our table. Horrid dinner I had 4 bites of my steak and the rest went into the garbage. A complete waste of money...never again.

Beyond delicious and amazing service, I dont know one item I have tried here that is not extremely tasty. They go above and beyond its a family run business and they always make you feel like you are special and they are privileged to have you there. That is a dying breed in todays generation there is not a place I go that Im more then comfortable giving my money then hear. I would and will continue to highly recommend! You will never be disappointed this is a diamond in the rough if you will!
