| - I have always loved the Q and to this day I still visit there from time to time to grab my good old quarter chicken meal with creamy coleslaw, I have since cut out the pop but everything else remains the same which is one of the main reasons why I love this place so much.
After all the years going here much of this place has remained unchanged because why fix something that ain't broke?! Sorry for the western inspired pun here but it is mildly fitting here as this place does have a casual, country design concept with a very welcoming atmosphere I would say. The location is a large one with plenty of seating and space so it's fantastic for large parties and families flock here as well as there are decent kids and senior specials. I like that the tables and booths are all spacious and comfy, although at certain peak times I will say it can get rather loud as it is a common family hot spot but still I find the experience a good one. It also has it's very own, large private parking lot which I adore and they are wheel chair accessible which I think ALL venues should be in the GTA..... preferably everywhere.
The food, as I mentioned earlier is very consistent in quality and the menu hasn't really changed all that much so you can expect your favorites to stay for a while on the menu. In comparison to swiss chalet I like this place a hundred times more as the ingredients seem to have much greater quality and the care put into the meal and it's presentation far surpasses them. The chicken is always flavorful with crispy skin and juicy meat, I always get white meat but my Dad loves the dark meat and claims it's way juicier then swiss chalet. The chicken sauce is my absolute favorite, I really can't get enough of it and drench both my chicken and my fries with it even though they both are delicious without it I still can't help it LOL! I used to love their fountain pop, it sounds a little silly cause you'd think pop is pop but when I used to drink pop like it was water I adored this place because they always had a perfect ratio of syrup vs soda water, so the pops were always bubbly and refreshing. However now that I have cut good old pop from my diet I have been trying a few of their wine selections and juices all of which have been fantastic so I'm not missing my friend so much anymore ;)
Service is impeccable here, I have always been thoroughly impressed with the variety of servers they employed there. I will admit I am not frequenting this place as often as I used to, in fact I drop in a few times a month if that now so I am not certain about the staff now however I can't see the standard dropping within the few years I haven't been a regular. I am more of a takeout girl now but I still find the service to be quite good and I do enjoy the convenient takeout and drive thru options which really accommodate everyone.
All in all I highly recommend this place if your looking for a hearty home style meal and would suggest you try this place if your looking for an alternative to Swiss Chalet
