Fries (and pizza) are my favorite food so I obviously had to come to La Banquise... but unfortunately left wondering what the hell happened.
Maybe if I were a hungry college kid at 3am it would have been good, but the quality of the toppings (when not meat- can't speak to the meat) is horrendous. Pretty sure it's crappy canned tomatoes, sliced black olives, the limp and sour grease-trap onions strings, flavorless guacamole, and the tiniest bits of cheese curds ever. It tasted like a clueless college student's ration pile.
Such a disappointment.
We picked through to try and find some more cheese curds or bites that would taste decent but I almost fished it were just naked fries and ketchup, it was that bad. We left 90% of the plate on the table and left feeling heavy and drowned from the stomach out.
On top of that, they only take cash or Canadian debit (don't even get me started on this) so be prepared for that or be prepared to fight through the line of 18 year olds to get to the busted and sketchy looking ATM and pay those fees.
Oh, and if you come after 9 (I think we got there at 9:03) they make you pay at the beginning... so as to avoid dine and ditchers. So strange... as if you'd be able to get out the completely blocked doorway anyway. But not strange was how the service totally dropped off after we paid. Took my money, served me some sub par fries, and ran.
