| - Hmmm, this is an update to my previous glowing review, which I beleive is still visible on this page. I must confess, that after coming to this location for over 30 years, I doubt very much we'll be returning again anytime soon. Reason being, the recent scaled down portions. I should point out that I'm very familiar with the menu, and portion size;
It's understandable that over a period of time a restaurant will have to raise/adjust their prices accordingly. But what Phil's has done recently is adjusted their portion size (making certain things smaller), while keeping the prices the same. But who's to say that won't go up as well!?
We recently ordered the pancakes...5 per order. They used to be quite large...maybe 6" in diameter. Now they're half that size, but cost the same. We also ordered the Canadian Pea Meal Bacon breakfast, which used to contain 3 large slices of ham/bacon. Now these slices are pathetically puny, just slightly larger than a table spoon!
When I asked our server about this, she said Phil's reduced the portion size of many items because the minimum wage went up! What kind of an excuse is that?
Bad (stupid?) business strategy Phil's...you just lost us as customers.
