| - UPDATE: I came back to give this place another go with my baby and brother. This time, the service was a solid 5/5 and the food was gold stars all around.
The only thing that kind of bugged me was a group of four women who were over-the-top laughing and talking SO loudly. The restaurant had a Top 90's mix with Spice Girls and Backstreet Boys, which was really fun but the girls were belting out to the music and it ended up being like a sing-a-long show in the middle of the restaurant. I could appreciate the fact that they were having a good time but when I come out to eat, I like to let other customers enjoy the ambience, I try not to bother them with my own banter and I usually keep the singing to the privacy of my own bedroom or at least a Karaoke bar.
My brother ordered the Bulgogi Heart & Seoul, while I ordered the Fish Tacos. Both were amazing and took about 15 minutes to come out. They brewed a fresh pot of coffee for us and filled it up throughout our meal. A gentleman even came to check on us and see how our food was. This was definitely a step up since the last time I was here and they definitely redeemed themselves. However, this time it was pretty empty in the restaurant (just another lone man and the four girls) so I'd like to see if they've improved their service when it gets busier.
I'm going to give it a 4/5 rating because I'm not sure if this type of service is consistent or not. Guess I'll just have to come back to see!
ORIGINAL REVIEW: 3/5 stars
If you're looking for amazing breakfast and a cute restaurant with nice ambience in Lorne Park area, this is the place.
My friends and I ordered the Polski Benedict, Heart & Seoul and Pancakes with fruit and home fries.
Our waitress was super nice but it was only her waiting the tables so once our food came, we didn't get checked on. We didn't get our coffees or water refilled and when the home fries didn't come, we couldn't grab the waitress until we were finished our food. We had to wait so long for it to get to the table and the chef brought it out to us and apologized. I personally believe that it should've been taken off our bill ... Regardless, we still had a good experience. I hope the wait staff is on top of it next time.
Thank God the food was amazing: the Heart & Seoul bulgogi meat melts in your mouth but the French fries weren't my fav. The home fries were really good though!
I wish I could've given this restaurant a 4.5/5 but the service we received just killed the vibes so it's a 3/5 from me.
