| - The Golden Griddle used to be all over the place, and when I lived in Toronto, it was one of my all time favourite breakfast / pancake houses. I wish they had them in Ottawa! So glad we went here, just for something different. I would give this place a 3.5 stars if only I could.
Nice selection of menu offerings - surely you will find something to appeal to the palate. I would go back, especially if they were closer to home.
I got 2 perfectly poached eggs on brown toast, fried potatoes (which were only ok, in my opinion), and bacon. It was a lot of food - I didn't finish the potatoes.
We had the place virtually to ourselves, as it was relatively early. What I thought was weird about the service was that the waiter brought us 1 package of peanut butter and 1 or 2 of jam. Why not bring a bowl and give us the choice?
On the other hand, a nice touch was free Toronto Sun newspapers.
Oddly, there is a buffet service set up, but they only offer that on weekends, and we went during the week. Too bad for us! But I thought they might be able to move it to the side?! Oh well.
It was tasty and lots of food on the plate without being an exhorbitant amount or cost. I would probably go there more often if I lived closer. Or if they had one locally!!
