You come here and you're not really expecting fine dining. The staff is great from the bar to the servers. The host is usually friendly and all smiles when you show up. Everybody is really professional at their job and coming from a person who's worked hospitality before, that says a lot.
The food is... well it's good but I really can't say more than that. There's nothing really special here but that's not to say it's bad. Far from it, I've been here several times and I've enjoyed myself. It's simple and it's not pretentious but it's not going to blow you away. I think the best you can call it is consistently good.
Started coming here years ago with my grandparents who were fans and have seen the place change. New faces have come and gone, The food is still good. It's standard fare especially for the lunch. A favorite is always the roast beef sandwich au jus. Although I have had other things, that's really one of the go to lunch meals.
It's mostly an older clientele. As I said my grandparents were fans and often times would bring me along with them to give my parents a night off as it were. It always felt like a treat. As as time went by it became an old and familiar friend.
As I'm no longer in Etobicoke I don't get over there as often as I did before but I always try to at least go once in while. It's not worth the drive but it is nice when you're in the area and want a roast beef sandwich.
The only time I would avoid it is Tuesdays at lunch. That's when a group takes over the banquet hall downstairs and there is literally no parking to be found in the strip mall.
