I have no idea how this place has received 5 stars thus far?! I tried this place with my family during a World Cup game for Father's day thinking what a cool experience for my pops and based on some great reviews re: food.
Due to a misunderstanding re: a booked time for a reservation (not my fault may I add), the person serving us (not sure if he was the owner) treated us very poorly and with slow and un-attentive service; as if he was punishing us for being late. He was actually quite rude and obviously we were not the type of hard core soccer fans that he was looking for.
There were only 2 menus on the table with 6ppl and he obviously seen us struggling trying to share the menus and didn't offer to give us more until he made a snide remark about it jokingly being 'cute' that the family was sharing a menu, ~ 15 minutes after we were sitting.
It took quite a bit of time to get our apps/food from ordering time. Even when my sister arrived late, the server obviously saw her but chose to ignore her for another 20 minutes before even getting a drink.
The food was average pub fair... but closer to bad. We ordered the nachos and deep fried oysters for apps. The oysters were basically a ball of mushy, juicy ball of fat covered in deep fried coating. I almost gagged. The nachos were even bad (if that is even possible to screw up nachos?!) where the cheese was so heavy/oily that it made the nachos so soggy. Not enough toppings on the nachos to give is some flavour.
The mains:
I ordered the Bison burger which was my first time trying Bison. It tasted like a lean type of beef...a little dry and nothing to rave about. The fries on my plate were smaller than a small portion from McDonald's and they were soft and overly oily.
The Curries: Two ppl in my party had this and complained that it was overpowered by butter that made it difficult to finish. They complained that there were not enough spices and really just tasted like a mound of butter on top of rice.
The fish and chips were average. Coating not crispy enough and everything was just overly oily. I already commented on the oily and small portion of fries.
The ribs were commented as 'average' and nothing special. \A little dry' was the comment from my dad.
All in all the food was not great. I think the chef went oil crazy. Really, the poor service and disrespect that I felt we had was uncalled for and really rubbed me the wrong way. I might have returned in the future for drinks and atmosphere...but the poor service we received was enough to say NEY.
