| - I was not impressed with the first interactions I had with staff at this place. A group of 6 of us had made reservations for 7pm here last Friday. We were the first two to arrive, and told the girl at the front about our reservations. It took her a good 2 minutes to figure out which party it was, and then we were informed that our table wasn't ready yet.. but it would be ready in about 5 minutes. Actually, she said she HAD a table for us, and the party next to our table kept stealing the chairs. So the table was not ready. We were asked to wait at the bar and someone would come to get us when our table was ready. We went to the bar and ordered 2 pints.. and the rest of our party came in and stood with us. No one EVER came by once to let us know if our table was being prepared, or at least give us an update. We waited at the bar for 40 minutes! Finally, after some pressuring by one of our party members, we were seated.
Once we were seated, the service got a lot better. The guy serving us was a lot more attentive and quick. We got our orders in, and drinks came quick. We ordered a platter of wings to share, and they were pretty good. Half thai chili and half medium. They were nice and crispy, but a little small.
I had the banquet burger which was good too. Not much else to say about it though, it was just a pub burger, doing it's job well as a pub burger.
They had a beer special for St. Patty's, $15 for a litre of Carlsburg and you get to keep the stein. We all got one of those and that was pretty neat.
Other than the food, this place was only so-so. The only reason we went there in the first place was because my friend had a gift card. I doubt I would be going back.. by choice.
