| - I have visited the Pickle Barrel's various locations over the years, especially the Yonge/Dundas location when I used to work in the area. I was happy when they opened a new location in my neighbourhood (Newmarket). Their vast menu always fascinates me: how do they keep all of that food on hand to make so many different entrees, salads and desserts?
Unfortunately, I have given this restaurant a 3-star rating because their service is almost painfully slow. It shouldn't take 2 hours to have dinner unless you're willing to sit there and gab, or you have a large group. Whether I've been there alone, with a friend, or with my book club, service is so slow that you are all too often trying to track down your server. They are all usually quite nice people but I don't know where they disappear to for fairly long periods of time, especially when the restaurant is not busy (as was the case last night).
The food is usually good, I have had breakfast, lunch and dinner at different locations. If they could do better with their service (i.e. be more attentive), I would certainly rate them higher.
