Lets keep this one basic - a list of places that I would now have to bribed somewhat to even think about returning. No joke.

Brampton, ON L6Z 0B4

1.0 star rating
  6/22/2010 First to Review

Managed to visit the restaurant here twice in one day (breakfast, round of golf and then a quick lunch). Hands down, the worst run establishment I have witnessed in North America. How's that for statements?

Breakfast:

We made reservations for 8 for…More »

  Update - 4/27/2012

Ended up here with a few friends last night.  The ONE guy who wanted to come here ended up a no show.  Figures.

Anywhooo, no change in my rating.  Food was quite good this time around.  Capon Chicken was juicy.  My friends "Beef Wellington" Burgers…More »

***1.5 Star***

I visit here every once in a while for the Eggs Milestone. Tasty goodness. That is now the only reason - this is my first sub-2 star review.

I haven't eaten supper here in yonks, so when I was given a $25 gift card for something I can't…More »

For anything other than their fajitas, this place is brutal. Staff are fine and friendly - no complaints there.  

Had a work lunch here and with the lunch menu I ordered the Chicken Salad with pecans, etc. There WERE pecans, but in dust form. I…More »

 5. Monaghans Sports Pub & Grill

Oakville, ON L6H 2R9
(905) 842-4435

2.0 star rating
  7/8/2010

Its a huge statement when underneath a restaurant's / bar's signage, it states "Best Wings in Town".

Specifically when it isn't true.

Monaghan's has been around...forever. The place is immense with a number of pool tables, tables/booths, flat screen…More »

 6. Goldenview Chinese Restaurant

Categories: Chinese, Ethnic Food

2.0 star rating
  2/1/2010 First to Review

I'm still not sure how I found this place or how it stays in business (other than for delivery/take-out).

My family considers this "our" resto for chinese food, as everyone involved (4 - 67 yrs) will eat something here.  Hey, kids eat glue and my…More »

2.0 star rating
  1/2/2010 First to Review

Visited here after my wife recommended the place. I don't know what to say about this restaurant. Very elegant inside; looks inviting. Live piano in the background and the place is crowded.

But then we ordered our food and it was "Enh". I ordered a…More »

2508 Hampshire Gate
Oakville, ON L6H 6A2
(905) 829-1223
2.0 star rating
  2/1/2010 First to Review

The one and only (at least I think) wing and rib joint in the vacuum that is Oakville.

For the Record: I have never liked the wings from St. Louis.  I don't like dry wings in general (I likes them like I likes mah wimmins - saucy) and as that is how…More »

***2.5 Stars***

I haven't been to an East Side Mario's in close to 10 years - just not a fan of this chain. However, co-workers wanted lunch out today and this was what they picked.

Started with what will soon be part of the menu - Buddha Boomers.…More »

This review stems from a discussion re: Restaurant Makeover.  I visited this place specifically because I lived 5 mins from it and I had NEVER heard of it before.

My experience? Meh.

Recently updated lists from Richie S.

It rubs the lotion on it's skin... (10)

Places where men can go to get their pretty on.
...creepy List Name, huh?!

Great, but (10)

Here's a list of fantastic places that just aren't quite "there" yet.

Good places to help you dress like a Man (8)

Well, if I can't act like one, at least I can fool some of you by dressing like one.

Mmmmeat (15)

If it were socially acceptable (and healthy) to eat red meat at every meal, I would load up my bbq in a Radio Flyer and pull it everywhere I went.

Instead, I am forced to search for establishments that either serve-up or will sell me glorious mounds of animal flesh.

Fine Dining Establishments (8)

Hey, because I'm pretentious like that!

Places I've frequently visited (and in turn either sold my first born, or a kidney).

The Best of Oakvegas (15)

For those brave enough to venture forth into what was the Original Cottage-Country, Oakville has some of the best establishments around.

French Places (20)

I've always had a fetish for French eateries.  Full-fledged restos, bistros or boites - it doesn't matter.  I'm just getting around to as many as possible.  But cut me some slack; I'm on the case and I'm going as fast as my lazy ass can.

Maybe it's b/c I judge everyone / everything and generally think I'm better than everyone else.  It's the frenchie in me!

French Places, not in France, but in the GTA (16)

I'm on a mission to get to as many Good French place in Ontario as possible before I need a bigger pant size.  Here's the list so far.

Everybody go Hotel, Motel, Holiday Inn (10)

Places to stay while away.  No, they don't do "hourly".

Helloooooo love, would you like a sweetie? (7)

K, that came off as creepy rather than Mrs. Doubtfire-ish.

These are place to grab something for your sweet set of teeth.
