| - You can really taste the 'giving a crap' from this restaurant.
You can taste it, but won't feel it with how inattentive some of the service is sometimes. That aside, I had a very enjoyable meal with 4 of my friends. We got to try pretty much everything on the menu and were impressed by most of it. Where the 'giving a crap' really shines through is the fact that you can taste the difference in each of the gravies, the chicken gravy, the hot chicken sandwich, the chicken pot pie, each made for that dish. It's easy to see it's considered more than just brown lubricant and comparing it to St-Hubert seems wilfully ignorant.
As a main course I had the chicken pot pie, the crust was perfect (wished there was a lot more), and the filling beneath was great. My girlfriend had a hot chicken sandwich, simple, thick breaded tastiness. I was a little disappointed with the crab roll, very light and tasty but for a main, it's little more of a crap salad in a bun. I had a coaster with me, she looked robbed, which I found funny, but still a shortfall.
The sides were great, well done mac n' cheese, creamy spinach, even had the marshmallow sweet potato side (interesting....). Desserts were great but beware of extremely sharp fried banana in the split.
All-in all nice experience, though it dawns Gordon Ramsay's name, it is a barbecue chicken restaurant, a very good one at that.
