Even at that, this isn't my restaurant of choice. \n\nPickle Barrel does one thing well - they keep the same crappy menu and service pretty uniform amongst its Toronto locations. \n\nI suppose you are wondering why I have such a hate on for Pickle Barrel, but all I can say is I gave them too many chances. I haven't had any memorable meals here. Memorable moments, yes. Like when I asked for no veggies with my steak (while ordering) and the server asked if I would mind just sliding them onto one of my friends' plates once being served, since the chef disliked substitutions. I mean, where the hell am I eating?! I am actually saving them money and plating time by omitting part of my meal - not even asking for a substitute."^^ . "0"^^ . . . .
