| - Milestones really needs to step it up been twice recently for work and it is awful. Actually include Moxies, Boston Pizza, Eastside Marios, Canyon Creek, pickle barrel, Jack Astors, Kelseys. ughh they are all so bad I am constantly forced to go for work lunches and events. Seriously ashamed of Canadian chains restaurants. Canadians don't understand in the US there are actually GOOD chains while we accept subpar expensive cardboard like milestones. Picture Milestones but drop the faux snobby attitude upgrade the décor, take the menu throw it out and replace it with one that's about 5x as big with some actual vegetarian , vegan, gluten free, low carb, low fat, and generally customizable, options. Lower the prices, offer FRESH iced tea and homemade lemonade and lastly throw out all the food and replace it with food that tastes good. if there was California Pizza Kitchen or Cheesecake Factory in Yorkdale Milestones, Moxies and pickle barrel would probably have to close their doors or take a serious look at themselves. If there was an Olive Garden or Carrabas at Scarborough town, East Side Mario's would just have to lie down and die.
My meal at this milestone's was so bad I sent it back and just asked for it to be taken off the bill. The one vegetarian option besides their horrible veggie burger was pasta and it was so overcooked that I had to eat it with a spoon and not a fork no joke. The sauce tasted identical to like 99c ragu. To charge more than 2 dollars for that mess is simply insulting. Last Saturday reluctantly went to the Yorkdale location for a quick bite as my boyfriend was starving and it was the only place not full ( I wanted chipoltle!) decided just to get some apps. Got garlic bread, bruschetta and strawberry lemonade they said was home made. The lemonade was clearly made from concentrate and added to sickly sweet strawberry syrup. The garlic bread was inedible it was covered in a chimichuri sauce, well what they call chimichuri is disgusting and it was COVERED in the stuff we couldn't eat more than two bites. The bruschetta had the same strange taste too like rotten cilantro. Everything at this place is also so so so heavy drenched in oil and butter and cheese. We both felt sick and vowed never again. BTW your only vegetarian salad is with strawberry and goat cheese, what is this a 1986 throwback?
