- EJEvelyn Jacobs3 days ago5.0Maria Maria she reminds me of a west side story…. The most excellent service I have ever had. Maria please be my friend, thank you for the exceptional service tonight for our very large group. Give this woman a raise!
- HTHanit Tsur-Jacobs3 days ago5.0The 3 cheese ravioli and the dirt pie dessert was absolutely amazing. Keep the ravioli brilliant dish. Sarah who served our table was outstanding, she is the best.
- NBNancy BezaireNov 15, 20252.0A friend and I went for lunch on a very unbusy Saturday. When the food came, her chicken fingers and fries were stone cold. She sent them back and they were replaced quickly. I ordered french onion soup (served without a spoon) and a small caesar salad. The salads were lovely. The soup I will pass on in the future. The servers were lovely. My low rating comes from tables not being bussed and not great food. There were two tables next to us that had dirty dishes and leftover food on them the whole time we were there. The table on the other side of us left, and that table wasn't cleaned. There were very few people in the whole place.
- JGJim GrantNov 15, 20251.0Walked in 230pm on Sat, place was filthy, was told to find a seat there were at least 10 dirty tables. Place was not busy with customers at the time, we may have missed a rush but not a welcome environment. There was not a clean table available. If they cant have a clean table how are they are going to serve food. OJ`s is off the list.
- CJCaleb JesudasNov 4, 20255.0Beef Dip - Great Beef and great sauce. Yummy mayo and crunchy onion rings. Great crunchy Caesar Salad for the sides ACE cheese burger - was delicious with the sweet potato fries and fresh veggie for the sides Home Made Carrom Seed Tea - The cups are theirs just incase you want to have something from your end, they are very flexible The place was great with families all around, service was quick but no nonalcholic drink on the house when asked. The attendants were friendly and the spot was clean and not smelly. They music was great and the Vibe was absolutely relaxing. Great temperature and spotless washrooms that define good hygeine
