Folks, my wife and I have been attending this Pickering gem since they opened many years ago and try to visit at least once every 2 weeks. From a customer point of view and regular dine out couple we find the Waterfront Bistro to be the most consistant food quality and service than any other restaurant we have frequented.
I know every restaurant can have an off day from a dinners perspective or from a personality clash with someone but I'm very very suprized at some of these negative reviews which are not being done as objective or constructivly but rather a rant.
If Yelp wants to continue to be considered a place for people to provide reviews for all of the business I would hope you create some kind of rating standard and also have a more consitant review of the users comments against these standards.
As for the folks who read these negative reviews I would suggest that you visit for yourself on days other than valentines and mothers day to give this place an opportunity to show you what quality and value is all about

p.s I challenge anyone out there to try the prime rib and please let me know where you have a better quality/value piece of meat any where in Durham region :-)
p.s. 2 If you have any staff or food concern while visiting a restaurant I would suggest you speak to the manager for a quick resolve versus just venting on a public site (just saying)
