| - Didn't feel like cooking on a Friday night so we decided to try out Philthys. The restaurant is located at Thickson and Taunton on the north west corner across from the Metro Plaza.
The restaurant is bright and open with about 10 tables for dinner in. There was a few person long line but it gave us time to check out the menu. We both ended up ordering poutine, peppersteak poutine for him and the cheesesteak poutine for me.
The guy at the cash was super friendly, my fiancee had a question and he didn't hesitate with the answer. I asked about delivery (Yelp asked me) and he told me that they do delivery, but only in the L1R postal code area as poutine doesn't travel as well as the cheesesteaks do.
We paid and then waited by the counter for our food as the tables were filling up and not long after, our order was ready and we were out the door! They pack the poutine open top in the bag and it kept everything good, not soggy from steam or anything.
I got a few bites into mine before realizing it was the wrong poutine. My fiancée was sure his was right as there was clearly a peppercorn sauce on his. Mine should have had cheesesteak and onions (Cheese Steak Poutine) but instead it had cheesesteak, bacon and peameal bacon (Bacon Cheese Steak).
Best. Mistake. Ever.
My fiancée and I both loved the poutine I got. Bacon is amazing, so not a surprise, but it was fantastic. Both of us said we would order it again for sure. I did try his and it was very good. I definitely wanted the onions he had on his poutine on mine, that would have thrown mine over the edge of deliciousness. Bacon, steak and onion would be great together on a poutine... Anyways the gravy is great, not to thick and not too thin. The fries are handcut with skin on the ends and fried to a golden brown. I think I could eat those fries alone all day. The peameal was nicely cooked, not too chewy and regular bacon was delicious! Not skimpy with the cheese curds at all (poutine sacrilege) and the cheese was nicely melted and stringy under all those toppings.
Overall, great visit to Philthys. They did get my order wrong, but what I got instead was absolutely delicious so I'm confident that whatever we try next will be just as great. Service was friendly and fast, you can't ask for more than that! Dinner for the two of us was around $20 and the portions were very generous even for the regular size!
