I've been going to the Chris Rock Tavern on and off for decades. I went for brunch on Sunday and had one of the most ridiculous, absurd food experiences I've ever had. I'll still go back, I'll just make sure I don't get the same server. So I went for brunch with my mother and ordered Jack's Big Boy Breakfast. 3 eggs and a choice of 3 of 4 meats. Bacon, sausage, ham, Bologna. I don't like ham or sausage, and 100% of the time just get extra bologna. Nope. Not with the server I had. In order to get no sausage or ham and just get extra bacon or Bologna, it was going to cost $4 extra. What? I was told in no uncertain terms that I had to choose 3 different meats, not two, not one. Three. If I did not, that was a substitution and that was going to cost $2. Then, because I wanted only bologna, it was going to cost me another $2, because it's a substitution. I repeated my understanding to the server who confirmed everything. So I just took the sausage because I wasn't going to ruin brunch with my mother, but I'm pretty sure this person isn't cut out for serving. If changing meat or not taking meat are substitutions, what about how I want my eggs or my choice of toast? Is cracking the egg not modifying the egg? Is there a default setting for eggs? What kind of toast? I don't know, what is the least modified form? Will there be more surprise fees? Cream and sugar in my coffee...that's another modification. So confusing. Why am I putting this in a review? Because it's ridiculous. Hopefully management/ownership will read it and have a talk with someone. It's the first time I've ever encountered that kind of rigidity at the ChrisRock or any place that serves food.

Went there for the first time for Burger Fest. The place was busy, I mean extremely busy but the service was excellent, the food was amazing. The best part was the prices. Very affordable prices for on tap or bottle drinks. They keep you filled, and check up as often as they can. Especially for a busy spot like that.

Went for our first time around lunch, wasnt impressed with the food; cheeseburger and fries and chicken burger with poutine. Cheeseburger wasnt juicy and tasted blah. Fries where very greasy. Chicken burger was juicy but the bread wasnt crunchy, more soggy and the poutine had way to much gravy that the fries were mushy. Service was good, but employee was very overwhelmed and mentioned they didnt have a chance to eat during their shift and felt dizzy- not okay! Atmosphere was ok except there was a group of guys that had to yell at eachother everytime they spoke, not to mention they stunk like weed from smoking in the parking lot, which we had to walk past them when we entered. The location in general sucks, with the homeless and addicts that walk around - not a safe feeling. Kid-friendliness: No

The atmosphere was good and the staff was friendly. The servers made sure to check to see if you were good and if our meal was ok. The food it self is ok. I had one their specails on Friday where it was buger and smoked meat and found ok. My family member had the prime rib there and just loved it as it melted in their mouth. I know for sure I am going back again to give that prime rib a try. XD Updated: when back and servers where still poliet and food was still as good. I deffently reccommend eating here.

I came after reading the reviews and thought this sounds too good to be true. But it wasnt! I had the fish and chips because the waiter mentioned is was on special. It was amazing, the best fish and chips Ive had in a long time and I was born and raised in Halifax, NS where we know real fish and chips and Ive had them back home and in London England, and Lisbon, Portugal. It was just as good here except everywhere else it would cost you twice the price. And the service was amazing

Restaurant in a very pleasant tavern, a large choice of dishes with meat or fish accompanied by fries or salad (additional charge). We got it for $17 per person for one dish per person, one beer and taxes. I especially recommend the fish and chips which were very good, the meat was a little less so and the hamburgers were in sandwich bread.
