My wife and I ordered from this spot for the first time last night and we’re were both very pleased with our meals. I got the fettuccine and she got the salad with pieces of lamb as well as the steak bites. Everything was delicious. They have many options on their menu to choose from too. Happy we came across this hidden gem and will definitely be returning customers. Next on the list is fish and chips 😋

I've been ordering the take out fish and chips on Fridays (30% off!) every week for a month now and they're delicious! The piece of fish is huge and fresh, crispy batter and the fries are yummy. The tartar sauce is the cherry on top. Will continue to come here and maybe try their pasta on Thursdays!

Ordered their St. Louis Ribs through UberEats. The fries were decent - still pretty crispy by the time they got to me. The coleslaw was okay as well, bit on the dryer side. The ribs had a nice charred flavour and texture to them that gave it some smokiness. The glaze on them gave it some sweetness. It could’ve been saucier for my preference because it was a bit dry.

Visited this restaurant yesterday morning for a quick breakfast take-out and I was so pleasantly surprised with the quality and taste of the food!! It’s a quaint little restaurant by Roncesvalles Ave so I was a little apprehensive to try it out but man am I so glad I did!!!! Reasonable prizes and the portion size is good!! The service was quick, the server was super friendly. I ordered the Super 1 breakfast which included a sunny side up, their home fries, 3 big sausages, bread & French toast too! All for $21😋 Overall a 10/10 experience. Will surely visit again sometime for a dine-in experience!! Kudos to the team 👏

The brisket was amazing!!!!I can’t wait to go back to try the ribs and burgers next . Huge portion size and reasonably priced. Love seeing that they have a lot of specials always going on.

Walked by and the sign posted on the sidewalk said 50% off ALL WINGS. Went in and ordered 2lbs. The server said it wouldn't be a problem and that she will ring it in but seemed hesitant. Not wanting to get a surprise bill, I asked her to double check with the kitchen. It turns out they will only honour their own sign IF you order 1lb of wings not ANY or ALL. But wait, if you come on SPECIAL days, when certain cooks are working, you MIGHT actually get what the sign says. I ask the server to go talk to the cook and tell him she already agreed on the 50% off on the 2lbs, she does so and it's still a no. I ask to speak to the cook and he said he's too busy even though I'm the only one in the place. He later comes out of the kitchen as a show of force to chat up an Uber driver and bring him his takeout order while completely ignoring me while I'm sat a few feet away at the bar. The kicker was the server put in the wings order anyway for 1lb because of course she did, none of them speak English and just because you have a major issue with the advertised promo, doesn't mean you shouldn't put it through anyway. Lastly the owner is married and offered to take my female friend home when I couldn't make it. She couldn't be more creeped out. BONUS PIC: Here's what you get when you order a triple smash burger-WONDER BREAD instead of burger buns because they said it wouldn't fit otherwise LMAO. This place is a tragic joke that doesn't belong in the depths of Scarborough, much less anywhere on Roncesvalles..

Last weekend, my family and I visited the restaurant and were impressed by both the food and the service. While it's a bit pricey, the portion sizes are generous. I ordered the Swiss Mushroom Burger, which was delicious! The waitress mentioned they'll be opening for breakfast, so we plan to try that out soon. Adding some music would enhance the atmosphere and make it even more welcoming.

Why does this place exist? Like the food was fine, nothing special. Its the decor that bothers me. Such a generic sports restaurant/bar with nothing decorating* the bright red walls except TVs. Compared to its prime location of Roncesvalles, this place is slacking. *(EDIT: They have since redecorated!)

Where is your phone number ? Its not in service. Order breakfast alot a d always ask for crispy bacon and its hardly cooked. Your phone number doesnt work and your Instagram is also gone. Unlikely anyone from the business will read this.

Unfortunately, my experience was a disaster! I received spoiled mashed potatoes in a dish with liver and bacon. Eating it could have led to food poisoning, so I just threw the whole dish in the trash.

October 22, 2024

very disappointing. I ordered the chicken parm. When it came it was covered in flakey cheese. it looked digusting. i managed to scrape most of it off. the food was warm but not hot. i was the only one in the place the whole time. That should have been my 1st clue. i will never go back.

There was a full sized horsefly buried in my coleslaw , 19th JULY 2024 the people working there must be truly irresponsible and need to be punished to allow this to be sent out for delivery . Truly sickening

I have never been impressed by BBQ through delivery apps but was craving it so I gave this place a try. Im so glad that I did. The double cheeseburger with brisket was beyond what I could have hoped for. It tasted like something homemade (with love), but satisfied the fast-food smash burger craving. The brisket was a bit dry, but overall, excellent. Fries were tasty and the wings were pretty decent as well.

Grabbed food last minute there because baby girl goes to daycare right there. This was greatness. I was expecting just whatever but was very impressed. Will go back and super nice staff.

Wanted to try this place as it looked promising but I felt like I was catfished by the menu everything is over priced and every thing my wife or I had ordered from here ended up being dry and sauceless over cooked steak sandwich and the Smash Burger I had ordered had absolutely no sauce even though it states chipotle. Wings are better at a low end pizza joint. And the wedges we slightly under done as the were fairly starchy in the center still.

This new place is worth trying!! We had 2 very good dinners: fish and chips and liver and onions. Both fresh, well-prepared, generous portions. good coffee, friendly helpful attentive and patient server. Large and varied menu. Place could be a bit more cheery, some tablecloths or placemats, nicer lighting, a dessert menu, a drinks menu. but give it a try for the good food and friendly welcome.

We had lunch here today and it was fantastic. The chicken souvlaki was better than Aris and the half rack of ribs was better than Barque. That is really saying something. The serving person was delightful, the service was fast and everything was very clean. Highly recommend. Usually when a restaurant offers so many choices I worry that they wont be able to consistently do well. But the other orders we saw come out all looked delicious.

Heard about this place in the Roncesvalles neighborhood! It opened about a week ago and this place has the best food for a mixed cuisine. You get a variety of options under one roof! I ordered the Spinach Dip and Strawberry Mojito. Being a small eater the quantity was alot! Huge portion and the cocktail was boozy too. Service was amazing and the atmosphere was quite welcoming and warm Sure to visit again.
