“ Been here a few times and everytime is great. Chatted with the owner tonight and he is super nice and passionate about his restaurant. The food is homemade and not from frozen. Our server was super friendly and knowledgeable with the menu. We had Buffalo cauliflower, a Drunken chicken sandwich and Philly steak Flatbread. So amazing. Can't wait to try the patio. ”
“ A small place with big flavour. You would honestly expect this place to just be about the drinks and sports, but the food is so good. At this point I've had about 15 different menu items and I'll say, they all come out with fresh ingredients and great taste. Matt is a great chef, the owner is a great person and their servers are always kind, polite and speedy. The toadstool is an underated gem ”
“ Amanda was great!!! She gave us a very friendly introduction to the menu. Lots of great choices... Freedom to alter/substitute menu items. Everything is hand made, in restaurant, fresh daily with your order. I had the 12rack ribs, and I asked for the "sweet chili" and "jerk" sauce. Ribs were fall off the bone freaking delicious. Debby had the chicken Tacos (you get 3). Delicious too. We will be back, and we'll be bringing our friends with us. Thank you for a great 1st experience at your restaurant. ”
“ Came in for a late lunch, and the bartender served us. Wasn't busy at all. He read out the specials for us, and I was sold on the Korean beef bowl. My wife got the ribs and wings combo. Food was top-notch, and I'm glad he suggested the Korean beef bowl because it was awesome. Spicy beefy and the chucks of beef were melt in your mouth tender. My wife was also very happy with her ribs. Highly recommend this little place. Thanks for a great meal and service! Cheers ”
“ I was not willing to drive much further away from my neighborhood and luckily I found this spot less than 5mins away from my home. Went in, and got greeted by two ladies who were very polite and friendly. I had ordered the Linguine Carbonara which was spiced and seasoned just as I wanted. The portions of the food were very filling as well. They also have free refills for pop. For dessert I ordered their Apple Cinnamon Blossom, which was a nice touch to end off my visit at this restaurant. Thank you for good quality food, alongside a great service. ”
“ Great neighbourhood spot! Staff is friendly (especially the owner Todd!) and the food is always home made and delicious. I’ve tried multiple items in the menu and I’ve never been disappointed. The perfect choice if you’re looking for a pint and a bite! ”
“ Food was great as always!! I had the Korean beef / noodle special and it was amazing. My wife had the smash burger which was made exactly how she ordered it which is good because she’s a bit on the picky side!!! The topper is they still have fresh cut fries. Everyone else has gone away from them. Will be back 100% ”
