This was a great stop. We were away from home for Thanksgiving and we were able to get a turkey dinner here. Our waitress was fantastic and very friendly and accommodating to our needs. Thank you
From what I have heard, this establishment has been around for generations. We ate early in the day, so we were seated immediately. Staff was friendly and helpful. Burger and fries were very good. Seemed like a smash burger with the edges being a little crispy. Others had good choices too. Next time, I will try a greek dish since this place seems to have some Greek liniage.
Clean. Home cooked meals. Servers are always on point. Highly recommend the Salisbury steak with gravy and fried onions. Here for two days and came every day. Sunday brunch is good too.
I've been coming here since the 1980s. This place was your standard dinner food with a greek/italian influence to it. The place used to be amazing with huge portions of delicous standard diners fare such as turkey dinner, pepper steak, hamburger steak or italian & greek dishes, enjoyed their buffets and bruches as well as prime and all the trimmings. The service was excellent as this place was packed. Over the years, it had its ups & and downs, but now has become so so but hoping for a turnaround. The portions on some dishes are smaller, and some corners have been cut. The service is hit or miss depending on the waitress. Sad, sad, as I used to love spending my weekends with friends & family here having a delicous meal that I could rarely finish, that was a reasondble price and was always excited to come here & recommend to others. Came here for breakfast today and was enjoyable good stuff.👍
I've had prawns and mushroom caps from almost all over the world.. These guys plus the atmosphere might have taken a trophy DN.. pending publishing
Lovely folks here! Prompt and courteous service, very reasonable prices. Had the freshly made calamari, came with proper Greek salad, rosemary roasted potatoes and pilaf rice. Huge portion, was delicious!
Nice place.clean dining area. Excellent real food. Liver and onion,Salmon and fish and chips are Superb,Good fulfilling meal. We had pumpkin pie for dessert and it was just delicious.Would reccommend. Service is wonderful our server Chantel is very nice and would make you feel welcome. Prices are reasonable and affordable. 5 stars. Would come again and try other menu.
The $15 stuffed mushrooms looked super unappetizing and cheap when they showed up...literally some little mushrooms and shrimp thrown in a dish with some melted cheddar on top...and not enough to share really. My pop never made it to the house either which was frustrating. Turkey club was delicious though.
We had a decent outing at Carmel, doesnt disappoint usually. It was for birthday party, and thanks again for the good food
Aside from the glaring light without a cover in the booth next to us everything was excellent here. Food, service and prices are all great.
We wanted dessert, looked for suggestions and we gave this place a try. Their cheesecake was amazing. Im sure if was homemade. We got both kinds, cherry and blue berry. Omg if you havent tried this place do it. Were planing on checking out their buffet and the prime rib special. This place was clean, staff was friendly. We even overheard other patrons saying how good everything was. Definitely looking forward to our return visit.
Service was great. Food was good! Will def be coming back, as their corned beef hash was delish!
Great spot in prince george...Very friendly staff had a fantastic breakfast
Food was good but a little slow for service.
Outstanding food and service! Highly recommended!
Great diner, service, and food everything was good. Will be making this a regular breakfast spot.
Its a good place to dine for solo or family eats food is as good as their service i would be bringing my famclan there again most definitely
Unassuming place that doesnt look like much from the outside, but is pleasant inside with friendly staff and good, fairly-priced comfort food. Sunday Brunch is a PG tradition and the fact it runs until 2pm is a big plus for those who are slower getting moving on a Sunday. Food
Have had multiple times when I called in pick up order an hour early and still have to wait 15 to 20 minutes once I arrive. They dont really seem to care that people have schedules and commitments which is why I call ahead. They need to get their act together. WELL THEY DID IT AGAIN. Called ahead an hour before I was picking up. When I got there order wasnt ready and I was told 5 more minutes which was actually closer to 10. NOT SURE WHAT THE POINT OF CALLING AHEAD WOULD BE IF THEY DONT CARE ABOUT MY TIME OR SCHEDULE. Will NOT recommend the Carmel to anyone.
NICE PLACE....RELAXING.....GOOD FOOD.....
Very goood food. Ive been here a couple times now
I love their breakfast buffet. Its a feast with a variety of options like fresh fruits, fluffy waffles, and eggs made to order. The ambiance is relaxed, perfect for enjoying a leisurely morning meal.
Very good food
Very good food and atmosphere

Kicked me out for smoking crack but the food was great!!!
Great food and great service as always by the ladies at Carmel today. Thank you! We attempted to try a new place today and you reminded us why we come here.
nice yup. Vegetarian options: Nbggg Food : 5/5 |
The food and service was great just like every time we go there!!
It was alright.
Good
Love the Carmel Inns restaurant! Varied menu with lots to choose from. The Monte Cristo sandwich is my fav meal here.
Lunch was cold. Soup had no flavor.
Very nice people food was great Kid-friendliness: Very nice Just like home Food : 5/5 |
Simply put, one of the nicest places to have brunch. Food is plentiful and fresh. Servers are great as well. Best part for me is that the hours for Sunday brunch, go from 10-2, which is great.
Always a first class experience. Amazing Greek food options and done right. Portions and pricing also fair and generous! Thank you!
Im going out on a limb and saying its probably the best breakfast in Prince George.
Best calamari, pita and tzatziki Ive had in town. Always good breakfast at a very reasonable price. Nice family restaurant. Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair ramp to the front door
I had a blast, and the sunday buffet was good and kept the food topped up.
Just deadly they are.
Husband and I hit up the Sunday buffet often. Its usually very good, especially if you go early. We would sure like to see cubed hashbrows instead of wafflefries.
Went for breakfast, it was fantastic .
the food made 3 of my siblings, including me sick. the clean plates were dirty. and the food was not in anyways good. its was catering for an event on November 19/22
I love this place great food friendly attentive service have brought friends here and my 86 yr old parents from out of town. Have tried many different dishes and loved every one of them. taking some friends there for my. Suprise 65th birthday. I have been craving their salmon dinner its awesome the last six times I have had it Always found their portions to be larger then most.
I will start by saying I really liked the food. It was well cooked and tasty - very homemade feel. But a star is lost due to the portion size. Fries appeared to be from Costco yet they were stingy with the amount given. Sadly, the service was incredibly slow for a near-empty restaurant with more than 1 server working. Waited to order. Waited for food. Waited to pay. Server did not check in to ensure everything was good after we received our food. Lots of potential but it is an old restaurant and if they havent figured it out yet, theyre probably not going to figure it out at all.
A nice little place along the highway, easy to get into from one side of the highway a little harder going the other way. Clean, comfortable booths, quiet and the service is good. Decent coffee.
Great homestyle cooking fair prices.
After staying overnight in Prince George I dropped off my friend at the airport and was about to head back to Burns Lake. It was almost 11:00 and I was hankering a lot of food LOL. Id once stayed at the Inn and remembered the Sunday brunch. I walked in was immediately served and was treated to one of the possibly best eggs benedict Ive ever had. No word of a lie. When you perfect the English muffin or a crumpet that is the bottom to the top of perfection. The poached eggs were a wonderful runny dark Rich yolk and the holiday sauce with spot on. To the people in the kitchen well done!
My fiance and I went there for a celebration, and everything was great. The service was prompt and attentive, and the food came quick. Everything was cooked to perfection, and tasted delicious. We really enjoyed everything, and the portion size was good. Parking: Huge parking lot with an overflow lot for semi trucks. Wheelchair accessibility: The main floor is accessible, but the washrooms are not.
Atmosphere was great. The waitress told me to leave me a tip for her, only served my food and drink with a bill, never bothered to check on me and the food Food
I now have food poisoning form eating here
We had the Carmel Burger and it was delicious, the patties had good flavour. Excellent service, we never had an empty glass. I had my baby with me and the bathroom with the change table was very well laid out and clean. Will definitely be going again
Normally my #1 place to go. Today was very bad service and food. Probably not go again or recommend to anyone. I ordered Chicken suvilaki Picked up my order and when I got home - no salad. I phoned and they said you can come and get it now or save for another day, that was my option. So my husband went back and picked it up. I tried the chicken and it was so tough I thought it was pork. Phoned them back and the girl said we only make it in chicken Told her it was tough. all she said was thats too bad.
Food was amazing! Such a great breakfast for a good price and size. Our server Samantha was so nice and kind. She made this a great experience. We will be back soon!
Nothing special.
Usually a great place for lunch but its been all over the board for food quality. Our young server is very good ! Jordan did a great job! For this reason I give 3 stars instead of 2 . Thank you Jordan . Very well done !!
Always my favorite place to go for good homesite cooking
Best brunch in town.
Consistently really good food
Excellent people, Food and Service.
Great food.
Great food and service.
Great service, great food, reasonable wait time.
Nice place to eat yumm
Ordered food to go, when we got the food home it portion size was the worst Ive seen. I called to discuss but they were too busy to take my concerns. I wouldnt order from here again.
Great meals made with authenticity and care. The service and atmosphere was alright. Fries and gravy were delicious. Highly recommend the spanakopita, veal cutlets, and Carmel burger. Would definitely revisit.
Just like homemade. Its been a diner favorite for years. Steak sandwich cooked perfectly with crispy fries. Friendly wait staff.
Went to their brunch yesterday and what a disappointment that was. Dirty plates at the buffet. Eggs Benny s were cold and over cooked. Perogies were soggy as they were laying in 1/4 of grease. They were out of waffles so had to wait. My wife and our granddaughter got sick later in the evening. Will not be going to the Carmel any more. There are too many good restaurants in Prince George.
I had the opportunity to sit in and dine on some scrumptious side of fries, yum yum for sure. Also in the meal was a well put together clubhouse sandwich. Very well put together I must write. But the only inconvenience was how the server happened to switch my choice of bread with another persons sandwich order. No worries though, just a minor disruption of sorts. Nothing to balk at someone for incessantly. LoL. Everything else happens to be actually quite well attended to. The coolest remark Id like to leave with is they have two ply napkins, very fancy indeed . Never seen that before.
YUM YUM YUMMY YUMMERS I was sad after getting swormd by wasps that day and came here to cheer upy SERVER had fun pink nails and was verry nice to me and even oferd to accomodate for my disability:). EAT HERE PLESE THEY HAVE CHESE CAKE THAT SPINS AROUND ITS FUN
The liver n onions are the best
Really really good food and great service. We had the prime rib and Yorkshire pudding. All their food looked great. Nice place to stop for a nice dinner.
Omlet was burnt
Nice place with good food and great Customer service. Didnt take long to get our drinks or food orders taken.
Very nice place. The waitress was very friendly.
I used to come here when Tony and his daughters were running it , the food was excellent, the Greek dishes had nice fluffy rice and delicious potatoes roasted the Greek way with a proper Greek salad. BUT ! ... we traveled on our bikes a long way to eat Tonys delicious food and to our horror the staff was replaced and there was a different cook , wheres Tony ? The new cook does things his way . The table and cutlerty was sticky the touch . The server tried to take our calamari appetizer away from our table while we where still eating it .I ordered a domestic beer and they brought me a dented can of beer instead of a bottle . He added steamed vegitables mixed into the rice making it soggy and heavy . He doesnt know how to make a Greek salad . Our salad was copped cucumber with onion and just 2 olives with a sprinkle of feta crumbs .( pathetic ) wasnt even chopped the Greek way into cubes it was sliced like garden salad. When we brought this to thier attention and they try to fix it by only offering 10% off . I said it wasnt good enough so they went to 20% . I said thats not right your making us pay for this attempt of a famous dish by giving a discount , then tried offering a free desert , they tried every angle not to refund our money . Finally I said Im going to talk to Tony , then all of a sudden We only had to pay our drink and appetizers but not the meal that was botched . They finally made things fair but we are still dissapointed with the meal Greek chicken sluvaki its simply a different cook that doesnt know how to maintain the original recipe, the rice was wrong , the potates were wrong the salad was wrong . New cook and staff could not hold Tonys tradition , and the dishwasher needs training due to sticky cutlery. If you want soup and sandwich , frozen veggies from a bag. Or regular dinerfood give it a try , but I think they should take down the Greek Restraunt sign . The cant cook like Tony !
One of the best places in PG to eat breakfast.
Vegetarian options: Yes Wheelchair accessibility: Yes Food : 5/5 |
The food was good. Unfortunately, the order was wrong, and they automatically blamed the cooks. Whats wrong with just saying sorry we made the mistake!?? That way, nobody is getting blamed. Service was not the greatest, I only had 2 cups of coffee in the just over 2 hour visit. We had to get our servers attention to order.
Great service
Awesome food and reasonable prices.
Best Cesar anywhere!!!! great food, I am never disappointed Parking: Truck parking Food : 5/5 |
Breakfast buffet was cold. I was charged 27.00 Buffet and coffee. Hardly ate. Eggs benny had a funny taste.
Good fresh food they kept the buffet stocked when it was busy lots of good choices.
A nice place for a group get together or event. Our group of 50 had a very nice time and the food was perfect.
I ordered the veal cutlets and my wife had the calamari dinner. Wow! Huge potions. Excellent food. Just like mom used to make.
Ive eaten here everytime I come to prince george and they always take care with my orders even with all the things I like to change. Im dying for the return of the seasonal cheese cakes I love.
It was ok the experience, the service, and my food. Thats it.
The food is great. The selection is great! Highly recommend brunch.
Awesome meal I had the hot turkey sandwich. Salad fresh and crisp. Real turkey and really good gravy. Excellent fries.
The chef is wonderful, and the waitresses are on point. Best for home-like cooking which warms the bones.
Love there Sunday breakfast buffet, friendly staff, great service, bacon is to die for!!!!
I eat here regularly when I travel for work. I crave the beef dip with the herb and garlic au jus and the potato bacon soup when I m back home. Atmosphere is pretty chill which makes it a comfortable place to eat. I ve only eaten there in the evening and the staff is always solid. Recommend eating there to my co-workers all the time.
Amazing food, atmosphere and service always! Melissa makes the absolute best eggs benedict I ve had! The food is always perfect! Highly recommend!!
All ways a good place for that home cooked meal, and the staff are all great people.So for your next meal come and give them the chance to show you!......
Friendly staff.
Its taken a bit for me to do this review and now after thinking about it for awhile, i felt it necessary. I used to frequent this place often. This last time was the LAST TIME. I needed to use the washroom... the toilet to be specific. For # 2 to be specific again. After being done...NO TOILET PAPER ... SOB. I decide to move to the other stall again no toilet paper. Angry and disappointed I go to leave and wash my hands...NO SOAP. Washed my hands with just water and go for paper towel to dry my hands NO PAPER TOWEL. Never will I step a foot in the Carmel Restaurant There were lots of people in there for breakfast... did they experience the same thing then go eat ? All this during a pandemic. Real bad and necessary to let people know with this review.
Took my uncle George for his Birthday . We have been customers for more than 40 years.The best designed restaurant.
Breakfast made me sick twice! I work night shift and asked if exceptions could be made to order off the dinner menu and get some nachos which are pretty easy and not a strain on the kitchen staff I was told by the server that answered thephone that this was impossible I called a half hour later and asked if this was possible and she said absolutely..... When I went to pick up my order I was scolded by the first server basically saying that if she says no thats it and you better not ask anyone else... The breakfast is terrible makes you sick the nachos however are ok.... The service needs work
I personally really like this restaurant. I have never had a bad meal. Always good portions!
This here is my liver and onions with bacon spot. Really great food and great pricing
I was here for dinner tonight, Easter Sunday. I walked in and was served immediately, a good start. I asked for water which I also received immediately. I asked for the special which I received quickly. Service was fast, but I felt rushed. Food was good, piping hot and tasty. There was just something about the way I was served. Maybe its because I was alone, maybe its because they were busy. Nobody was using trays, carrying plates barehanded, finger or thumb on edge of plate, I saw one server carrying four plates of food this way. I might have been impressed, but it kooked wrong. My server plopped my dessert on the table, not even a plate, clean fork or at the least a napkin underneath. I spoke to a person whom I presume was the shift manager who gave me 50% off my tab and agreed the presentation lacked something. My problem is that I felt unwelcome. Even after speaking to the woman in charge, I didnt get the coffee I requested, just the bill and a mumbled apology from the server. I often eat out with my daughter and granddaughters. We appreciate good food and good service. Theres a point though, where it crosses a boundary between good service and a I just want you gone attitude. The latter is what I received tonight. I dont think I will suggest this place to my daughter for our next dinner night.
Had a pretty good lunch at the Carmel, clubhouse and corn beef hash, but definitely could do better on their brown bread, as it s tasteless and feels like you re eating air and the coffee could be a bit tastier for 3.50 a cup . time to find a new distributor for both those products.
It is good even when the name is all most my name it is awesome and way cool
First thing was the Friendly and attentive service from Chantal, she really welcomed us to the place. Then I ordered the Bouncing Betty Burger with fries and gravy... Everything arrived hot, the burger was fantastic (almost a home made type of burger -didnt have to ask Wheres the Beef as the burger was a great size) and very filling. The fries and gravy finished the meal off perfectly. I left the place very full and ready for the long drive home. I will be back again for sure
Great food great ppl
Very good food there
Food was good and so was service at the table . Kitchen was slow in getting dishes out
Samantha, our server promptly gave us a friendly greeting when we arrived. I told her I didnt want hash browns or bread with my meal. Sam suggested I substitute with fresh fruit and sliced tomatoes. The service was excellent. Our coffee cups were kept filled, and the presentation of the meal was great
Great service friendly staff food portions great for a big eater .
Was my GRANDDAUGHTERS 16TH BIRTHDAY. VERY RESPECTFUL SERVICES.
Very friendly people
Amazing good food and really good staff it is my favorite restaurant I would definitely go back again
Food was good
Decent food Had the all day breakfast Service was ok 7-10
AMAZING service, delicious food
We highly recommend this restaurant IF you like Freshly roasted turkey in your hot turkey sandwich and in your clubhouse instead of processed deli meat Delicious beef and gravy too !! Good job John
Great home cooked food with fantastic waitresses.
Very consistent food. And very good menu. Recommended.
Its a great place to eat.
Never been there before.had the bunlessburger.was ok. Burger itself was good .lettuce was.meh. Had salad with it. Burger was filling. Staff was friendly
Service was slow and don t expect a refill on your coffee or bother getting asked how your food is or checked in to see . . vary dissatisfied with the outcome of the staff
Great food and service
Had a company dinner here. Good buffet. Friendly helpful staff
They sold out of their special early.
Had a wonderful meal tonight and Lisa was an absolute delight to have as a server. Thank you
Vegetarian options: Good Dietary restrictions: I dont know Parking: Lots Kid-friendliness: Yes Wheelchair accessibility: Yes
Decent selection for buffet, but a little pricey. Food was good.
Always great food and great service. One of my favorite places to eat in BC.
Carmel was always a place my mom and I enjoyed. The last few times not good. We waited for our meal for almost 45 minutes might have been longer. The waitress did not come and check on us or tell us a reason for delay. It was not busy. When we finally recieved our meal my potato was cold the steak was well done not medium rare. Moms grilled cheese the cheese was not completely melted. I sent mine back. She put a rush on it. Was hot and medium but no flavour. Very disappointed. There was no discount offered other than we are both seniors. Probably wont go back.
Amazing breakfast and great service!
It has always been a very busy place! Plates are Full, fast, service. Definitely, great place to with a big appetite.
The eggs Benedict was awesome. Shredded hash browns are my favorite and the hollandaise sauce as so good I asked for extra and put it on everything on my plate. Kid-friendliness: Good food and fast service makes the kids happy.
the food was so good, tasty, hot and lots. the young server, was focused and on top of things the restaurant is spacious and well maintained. we will be back Food : 5/5
Went for the buffet brunch. Even though I was there halfway through service, the food available was old and dried out. Poor selection available and no roast beef or ham. They charged extra for a mediocre cup of coffee.
We went for Sunday brunch. Considering the price there is a decent selection, including a lot of desserts.
Great food, great service, well priced. I feel at home there. Parking: Right outside the restaurant, with several access roads to the location. Wheelchair accessibility: Wheel chair parking right out front.
This time our meal was terrible. My husband drove over and picked it up. So sad to waste time and money. The pita bread wasn t even browned. No cheese on my over cooked Monte Christo sandwich. They forgot the dressing for my side Caesar salad. So basically just a few bits of lettuce and croutons for upcharge of $4.00. Both of my items items were too dry and not edible. I had to put mayonnaise on the sandwich to eat it. Tomorrow I will dress the salad or maybe throw it out.
This place is legendary and has been a place for generations to go in my family. so many memories of this restaurant and their amazing food along with service. if I could give more then 5 stars I would!!!!!
Wonderful atmosphere, the service was fantastic, The food was great Food
Went for breakfast and ordered eggs Benedict with medium soft egg yolks and received hard egg yolks not very appealing, but the staff seving us were very pleasant and accommodating.
Polite, friendly servers, if you are looking for the taste of a home cooked meal, this is the place. Ive tried many places when visiting Prince George and this is one of the best!
Good comfort food with fantastic staff.
It a real good restaurant good food friendly waitress reasonable price. I would go there again

Had breakfast at Carmel. Great home cooked meal. Portions are generous. Awesome service.
Had a great server and a great meal!!
Came here for dinner was not expecting authentic Greek Food. The food was awesome and unbelievable authentic Greek. Would recommend to anybody staying at hotel or if they live in town.
Great food. Good service
The server was awesome and the food was delicious.
I know that Tony is not in the kitchen! Because the lasagna is really lacking meat sauce and cheese. Its basically a bare Bones lasagna definitely not the normal lasagna that the caramel makes. The meal was hot and fresh And for the above reasons Im giving it two stars.. Tony we need you back!!!
Good food efficient staff
