| - I am skeptical of the O&B chain of restaurants, but ended up at Bannock needing a pre-Opera place to eat. The interior was simple and welcoming, although after looking into the Bay during my meal, I did feel an overwhelming urge to purchase a Hudson's Bay blanket afterwards...
The service was intense, very cordial to the extreme. Friendly, but a few too many servers for our one little table. That said, the alternative is much much worse.
The menu had a great mix of items, it's the kind of place anyone could find something to eat at. We decided on the daily soup, the bannock caesar, the burger + root crisps and the boneless back burger + smokey tomato jam. The burger was tasty, not a top 10-burger, but a good one, the root crisps were a nice change from boring old fries, and the boneless back burger was a McRib done right! (or so says my husband!)
The prices were just right, and the quality of ingredients, with many from local purveyors, was fantastic. Worth a meal for lunch or a quick casual dinner.
Way to go O&B.
