Stopped in here for a light dinner on Saturday night and was surprised it wasn't too busy. The hostess/waitress was very sweet and polite as she told us the night's specials. I decided on the Cajun Halibut Burger and it was perfect! The Halibut was…More »

Lickerish has all the makings of a cute, modern restaurant, but they lose points for lack luster service. We shared the Chipotle Mini Burgers, the Herb & Garlic Calamari, and had Caesars for drinks. The Mini Burgers were tasty, but lacked any hint of…More »

What better place to be on a sunny day than on the Burgoo patio! The patio is in the perfect spot where it gets the sun as late as possible. The Caesars are tasty and boozy! The Gooey Cheese Grillers are the best Grilled Cheese in town and the…More »

Of all the chain restaurants, I would say that Milestone's is my favourite! I haven't been here since they've last renovated, but it seems they've renovated again and stepped it up a notch. It looks much better! I've always found the food to be very…More »

I've been meaning to check out Chaise Lounge again since hearing it had switched ownership. It's been busy every time I've passed by, so that's still a good sign! As my partner and I passed by again we noticed the special was a Blue Cheese Burger and…More »

    Could I have been too hasty to dismiss Chaise after an average brunch? I think so! The Poutine was… Read more »

There's nothing better than having dinner in an enchanted forest, other than a spooky enchanted forest! This artwork that is Locus is amazing! With tree roots coming out of the walls and demons with their eyes lit up watching your every bite, the…More »
