I ordered a sausage on a bun & steak on a bun with spinach dip.The sausage was good, but the steak was very undercooked and unseasoned.The spinach dip was also disappointing it was very oily.

Use to be my favourite spot but now i won’t be returning. I don’t know what’s happened in the past month there but the food has been cold an the quantity is garbage every time I ordered . For 30 dollars you expect a meal to fill you an not have to raid the fridge 10 minutes after you ate. Today I ordered the roast beef an mash. Take a look at the picture an you tell me that’s worth 30 dollars. Oh an not to mention I asked for extra gravy an they gave me a completely different gravy then what’s used on the roast beef. Unfortunately I never noticed until after I dumped it on my food….

Have to experiences to share first one was whrn i went in with a date for a late night dinner and when we got there the atmosphere was so off and whrn we werw seated at the table the server completely ignored me but chose to talk to my date which just threw me off and the food was mediocre at best second experience was a few months after and this time it was a delivery order and immediately after ordering I realized i had made the wrong order so immediately cancelled turns out i still had to pay the $35 just because the restaurant is saying they already prepared the order in under 2 minutes as if that is possible they also denied me a pick up just a terrible experience all round

I went today for the first time since they reopened as “Nookies” and my friend asked for a whiskey sour and i asked for a double. Both of our drinks tasted extremely sour and didn’t taste like they had alcohol at all.I asked the bartender if mine was a double and she hesitated before saying “oops it wasn’t.” She reacted as if she was caught in not giving us what we asked and paused and waited for us to ask for a solution. Overall i’m pretty sure she gave us strictly just the sour mix with no alcohol. Also, when we asked when they closed she said “well, usually 12 but i’ve been here since 930 so i’m closing at 11. When we appeared dissatisfied with our service she randomly told us “actually i’m going to stay till 12 if you want to order another drink” after we already paid.Overall completely incompetent and tried to scam us.

The chicken curry with rice is to die for!! It really tastes homemade, I'm going crazy over it. Love it!!! Also props to the chef for still making a pretty plating of it even though they were putting it into a takeout container. It looked and smelled gorgeous opening it up!PS: also want to mention that a few months ago I stepped in for a beer after a terrible doctor's appointment. The bartender was suuuuuch a sweetheart, and I still remember how much better she made me feel! I'm a big fan of the branding redesign, but I'm also so glad to see that the hospitality has not changed and is still just as strong as ever!! Definitely an unassuming-yet-high-quality family-friendly place to be! (well at least during the day LOL:))

Through Skip this restaurant offered a free Chicken Curry. I tend not to order dishes like this at sports bars ...but...wow! The flavour was amazing, the chicken was tender and the portion was the perfect size. We ordered this deal again tonight ...I'm still really impressed.

We used to get from here all the time and today I ordered my favorite potato soup...well it is not what it used to be at all! And portions have gotten smaller. Quality just isn't there.

Go there for the Salsa. The food was a bit greasy but they allocated generous space for dancing and it was a fun night. Really only saw the bartenders with all those people there you would think a server or other staff could help with maintaining the tables, removing empty glasses and plates.

My boyfriend and I went for Salsa social. Not an entirely enough room to dance but for what the area has it sufficed. For the amount of people 2 bartenders was definitely not enough. It was my first time at this event and restaurant and I am sure I will come back for another event

Had one good meal, then the next two not so much. Everything had this nose piercing smell of lemon cleaner. Flavor was good but getting past the smell is tough.
