- EVEric VazquezNov 16, 20255.0Stacy was our waitress today. She kept us informed and served up. Her positive attitude was contagious and we appreciate her level of service! Can’t wait to come back
- JHJaz HowellNov 14, 20252.0We used to always order fish dinners here always so fresh and cooked great, however over the past year it's changed drastically and I can't even finish one peice without tasting the old grease taste....not sure if they changed their schedules of cleaning the deep fryers or I just have the worst luck when ordering but we've completely stopped ordering from here because everytime we do it's a huge let down... Not worth the $ IMO
- CCChris CockerillNov 11, 20253.0They were really busy so it was slower service but only 2 waitress on and a nice young fellow came took our order so then food came pretty quick
- LGLeah GottseligOct 23, 20255.0We brought 22 nine and ten year olds into OJs for lunch yesterday and the staff was amazingly accommodating!!! The children received drinks quickly and their kids meals were generous portions. The staff was very patient as the kids payed individually with cash for their meals. Our 6 adult meals were also delicious! Thank you OJs Strathmore for being so awesome!!!
- CHChris HansenOct 21, 20252.0This used to be my favourite place in Strathmore but over the past year or 2 I have noticed a steady decline in quality and portion sizes. Nearly $30 for a scoop of mashed potatoes, 1/2 cup of caesar and the saddest steak sandwich - there is no chance it was 6oz…
