Food pics look great especially those lemon potatoes but they must be closed for the winter. Which is sad because I was really hungry as the others that check the front door which was locked

Prime Ribs best in Brandon. Spent more than normal but also ordered more food than we needed. Great experience, and everything we ordered was great. Mushrooms Neptune is excellent.

I’ve been staying in Brandon for work and have to go out to eat for dinner every night. I go to Albert’s at least twice a week. If you are a foodie you’ll love this place.

The food was typical Greek fare. We both had souvlaki and overall it was good. (The garden salad was underwhelming) Good sized portions. Service was excellent/friendly, helpful. The restaurant itself comes across as worn and tired. Exterior and interior. However it was genuine Greek decor as you might expect inside. We went during the dinner hour on a Sunday evening on a long weekend and it was a busy place frequented by many regulars which speaks of both the atmosphere and the food. Nevertheless my wife and I both thought it was somewhat pricey. And there was a genuine fly in the ointment as a fly continued to fly around our food throughout our meal, landing at times which was somewhat distracting.

My husband said this was the best prime rib he’s ever had. All the food was excellent and large quantities. The server was excellent as well. We highly recommend this restaurant.

Small restaurant in Brandon. Glad i found it and gave it a try last year. I've been back a number of times since. I ordered takeout. It was ready quickly and nice and hot. I got the moussaka with rice and veggies. Very flavorful. As someone who's always on the road, it's nice to find a place with healthy food that tastes good. Looking forward to seeing you guys next time I'm through.Parking: There's a parking lot across the road, but it has alot of potholes you need to watch for. Lots of space there in the daytime as it is a truck stop.

This place is one of Brandon's best restaurants. You can enjoy causal fare as well as fine dining. The food is amazing. Best prime rib in town. Lamb, ribs, seafood and amazing sides and salads. I dream about Greek lemon potatoes... You will not regret visiting this place

O-M-G. I was waiting to try the prime rib for a while and it did not disappoint! No wonder it is the restaurant's specialty and a must-try menu item in Brandon. Very generous portions of tender meat. The lemon roasted potatoes were surprisingly flavourful. The side Greek salad was well worth the extra cost and a nice compliment to the meal. My only minor suggestion would be to have a more potent horseradish, although my boyfriend would disagree! The Dolmades were herbaceous, and a sprinkle of lemon really made the flavours pop. We had enough leftovers for a proper lunch the next day. The service was friendly and accommodating with good COVID-19 safety precautions (masks required, plexiglass barrier, social distancing, hand sanitizer available).UPDATE: I'm adding to this review about 2 years later. I still recommend the lemon roasted potatoes, upgrading to the Greek salad, and making a reservation! I ordered the Greek Delight, which gives you a good amount of everything: Pork or chicken souvlaki (I had one of each), moussaka, spanakopita, and dolmades. DELICIOUS! The tzatziki that came with it was so tasty I'd probably order the tzatziki with pita bread next time. We enjoyed the saganaki (fried cheese) appetizer; once brought to the table, some brandy was poured over it, lit aflame, and fresh lemon juice squeezed on top. Our server, Chelsea, was fabulous from start to finish. However, we noticed another young server turn away two people around 7pm because the restaurant was full, dismissing the 15-minute wait they were told by a third server. She tried to do this again to another group later in the evening — not good for business. Some might say service was slow but I found it to be a relaxed pace that allowed for enjoying the meal and not feeling rushed to leave. Thank you for a lovely evening out!

An out-of-the-way spot off The Trans-Canada Highway north of the city (18th Street), but not at all difficult to find or get to. Something of a Brandon tradition, I'm told, in location for 50+ years. It's a typical largely booth-style restaurant, fairly small overall, and somewhat worn around the edges but the atmosphere is pleasant and the food seems very good. Truly homemade and 'comfortable'. The service is fine. Prices are usual for any restaurants these days (i.e. on the high side for what one gets), but there's a daily special (lunch for sure, perhaps dinner too) that is a very good deal.

We drove 2 1/2 hours just for this. I took three of my friends out for the best prime rib in North America.
