Review from Paul G.
Edmonton, AB

This place moved to 9303 50 street over 2 years ago. For fun, I tried out the new location, which admittedly is a step up from the old location But the old location had excellent nooner pizzas. I ordered their special soup and sandwich. Not much in the sandwich and the soup was out of a can. More of a trucker style of food I suppose. Saving grace was the beer. They have various sizes for sleves, pints, etc. It Is a rather blue collar or no collar crowd with a few old bikers. Nothing special inside but cosy. Had one tv. More for locals, not something you would just want to try out of the blue.

This used to be a Chinese restaurant, now it's under new management and it serves "homemade style" meals. It feels like a cross between a diner/pub. It's located right on the edge of the industrial part of Edmonton and is surrounded by lots of businesses. The perk for them is there aren't many other restaurants in the area within walking distance, so there's not much competition, so the bars set kinda low. This place doesn't have much ambiance. I don't get the name - either how to say it or what it means. The menu's OK. They've got variety - burgers, beef dip, fajita chicken, monte cristo, mexicasa wraps, baked lasagna, thai salad, fettuccini alfredo. I had the beef dip and it wasn't the best I've ever had but it wasn't the worst. The dipping sauce was delicious, not too watery and not too thick, and the fries were yummy and crispy. But the bun on the beef dip was a little old and dry. Parts of it crumbled in my hands as I ate. The waitress was nice enough, called everyone 'hun' and it fit well with the whole homemade style cooking gimmick, but her and another waitress sat around at the bar talking loudly and you could hear them swearing, which I found kinda tacky. They have a cheap morning breakie for $5 between 6 and 9 and there's karaoke there a couple of times a week. There's a restaurant side and a bar area with pool table and more loungy seats, which was way more appealing, but the waitress told me she'd "prefer" if I didn't sit in there, even though I was the only person in the whole restaurant. All in all, Xwrecks is kinda lame.
