| - I've always been a St.Hubert type of person, but since they packed up and left the GTA a few years back and I don't feel like driving 4 hours to the next closest one, I sometimes drop by Swiss Chalet.
Now, despite the fact that they are such a distant second, Swiss Chalet is usually not that bad. Their chicken is juicy and the fries do have a certain cache or appeal to them. The sauce is also oddly appealing.
This location however, is lacking. For starters, the service ranges from very slow to completely indifferent. I used to work in the building this is located in and they typically got 50-60% of the orders our lunch group did for take out, wrong. And these weren't large orders where it would be easy to forget something, it was typically 1-3 people ordering. The service in house is equally as bad (one time hostess basically told us she was too busy and to seat ourselves, she wasn't able to. It should be noted the restaurant was empty at this point. We walked out), it is slow as it gets (lunch hour was always a challenge to get back to work within the hour), and sometimes the chicken was kind of dry. Not always lousy though, I have been there and had good dining experiences, but they are too far and between each other to warrant going back.
Not worth the trip!
