| - I came here for a weekday lunch recently with my mom, not having been for years (first time I went was when they had just opened, and I remember distinctly that the spring rolls were amazing!). The restaurant is in a small plaza in Streetsville and most of the other diners looked like business people who work in the area.
One reason I wanted to go here was because you can get 2 for 1 on any entrees with the Entertainment card (someone was selling them at school for charity, it's like an SPC for adults but instead of just 10-20% off participating places, it's mostly buy 1 get 1 free). Most restaurants that participate are a bit far from major centres, so it's a way for them to attract new customers.
As far as suburban dining goes, Saucy is a refreshing change from the usual overpriced-with-mediocre-food chains (Moxie's, Milestones, etc.) or massive family restaurants. There's a bar at the front and 1 main dining room, which is small but not tiny. Decor is simple and classy, except for the random fish tank in one of the walls.
My mom is a regular there, so we got excellent service.
I had the sliders ($12) - 2 mini burgers with aged cheddar and grilled onions. They were awfully tasty, although perhaps a touch overcooked. It came with a small dish of coleslaw and a generous side salad.
I was pretty full after that, so just had a latte ($4), which came in an enormous mug!
My mom had the california chicken pizza, which looked great (thin-crust).
Even without the Entertainment card, the prices for lunch here are very reasonable - certainly much less than you would probably pay for a similar environment in Toronto.
