| - I met up with friends for lunch on a Saturday at The Loose Moose. My friend frequents this place,and spoke of it highly. Initially, I was very impressed. They gave us a giant picnic table with a lot of space. I expected typical bar/pub fare, and it was but slightly elevated.
It took me forever to commit to my food.
I ordered the Dill Encrusted Fish & Chips ( I am a sucker for dill!). It was a very generous serving of fish. There was plenty of dill,and the dill dipping sauce was my favourite part. The fries were good.
Although initially our visit started out very pleasant, I have to deduct a few stars because the quality of service really tapered off near the end of our visit. Our waitress was very nice (and certainly patient, as it took us forever to decide) but I saw less and less of her as the meal progressed (to be fair, perhaps they were understaffed).
As soon as our food came, my partner gave the tacos he ordered a hard no, he barely took 1 bite. He said it tasted "off". Okay that's pretty vague, but they just looked visually bad. The portion size was very small considering it was not listed as an appetizer. It went unnoticed that his food went untouched. Nobody asked him if his food was okay.
I would return to The Loose Moose to give it a second chance, because 4 out of the 5 of us did enjoy our meal.
The parking lot next door was convenient, it was $10 an hour, or 3 hours for $15. Apparently, there is also underground parking nearby that is more reasonably priced.
