| - Summary: all-day-breakfast restaurant offers quality food in big portions for a reasonable price with superb service until very, very late (formerly 24-hours)
Top Must-Get: meatball sandwich/pulled pork macaroni
Top Regret: skewers
One of our most frequented late night food places serves all day breakfast until the wee hours of the night, in addition to a variety of sandwiches, pastas, skewers and other items such as poutine, wings and fries.
I have received outstanding service each time I've gone: they're smiling, positive and I also notice they take orders on a tablet, which makes it feel more professional. They also have TVs on the walls, which is a nice touch; the place has a humble vibe, but a touch of upscale-ness.
First, let's talk the Meatball Sandwich, which has replaced the pulled pork macaroni as my favourite order here. The bread isn't the softest or the most fresh, but by golly, you get GIANT meatballs, and I've gotten more here (4-5 in a sandwich) than I have in dinners at other restaurants! Plus, they're not just big - they're big AND delicious. Quantity plus quality is a victory!
Pulled pork macaroni is phenomenal. Well-flavoured, good portion, and enough sauce to mix in with the macaroni. I've tried the other pastas which were not nearly as tasty, but the pulled pork mac is definitely a cut above.
All-day Breakfast:
They disappointed a friend of mine who insisted their iteration of poached eggs was not correct, but their all day breakfast is usually quite good besides that.
The Honey B breakfast at $4.99 is VALUE.
Their sides are solid, and unlike most Asian-run breakfast spots in the area, their sausages are in the Western style - delicious!
Their home fries are good, but not super outstanding.
I personally like the steak and egg, although they only make steak medium (nothing more rare, including medium-rare)
Skewers - especially the lamb skewers - are pretty good, but to me, very overpriced ($2 for one skewer - that's 60 cents a bite... put another way, for $5, you could get a Honey B breakfast with two eggs, a side, and homefries with a bit fruit on the side, or two and a half skewers. )
The only other complaint I have is the fact that they're located near a dumpster. Once, the entire plaza absolutely reeked. It was better when we went inside, and they let us know they had already called the company responsible for picking it up. Still, not exactly the smell you want to be in your nose before eating!
All in all, it continues to be a solid late night option!
