    Commissary style food

    Food is OK, the vegetable fat for the bread taste like grease, the Hell's Kitchen is good, wish they would go back to serving the large salads, and perhaps use real Parmesan.

    Poor service, inferior food

    I had a very negative experience at this restaurant. The service was dreadful, the food was cold when supposed to be hot and was tasteless. When I registered my concern in a quiet and respectful manner, I was basically told with a shrug, well, not...More

    General manager made it all better!

    It was Valentine's Day, so it's expected that it be busy...however I think the restaurant should be prepared for this. It took awhile for our first server to take our drink order. We were told we couldn't order the soup/salad combo as it was only...More

    Not Good...

    Had a club sandwich, didn't feel like pasta (rest of the party did) was deli meat, slice a cheese, and green tomato on it. Not a huge fan of this place... It's getting old and needs renovations. But the golden tee machine is good. Hope...More

    Bread and salad?

    Customer service was OK but they didn't seem to have a fully stocked bar everything we asked for they seemed not to have. What I really don't like is now only some meals come with the bread and salad.

    Bad change

    This place doesn't offer the bread and salad for all the meals like it used to, the menu doesn't have a good variety of dishes it's nothing like it used to be :(

    Barely edible

    Probably the worst meal I have ever had in a restaurant! Nothing else needs to be added Even after the manager reduced the bill by 50% it was still terrible!

    Huge disappointment on all levels

    Stopped here for lunch midafternoon with child's hockey team in town for the Clarington Applefest tournament. Front door staff seemed annoyed with our group and blonde lady actually sarcastically said, "you didn't think to call ahead?". Wish we had taken our hard earned money elsewhere....More
