We came to Kelsey’s on Thursday around 9:30 p.m. specifically for the Thursday wing bundle with spinach dip. We ordered three wing bundles and three kids’ meals. The restaurant wasn’t even busy, so we weren’t expecting such a long wait.
After 45 minutes, the kids’ meals finally arrived, but the fries were stale. We let our server know, and while they replaced them, the new fries still weren’t fresh. About 15 minutes later, the spinach dips came out, but we were still waiting for the wings.
After over an hour and 15 minutes, our wings still hadn’t arrived. When we asked how much longer it would be, we were told they were understaffed and were asked if we’d rather have the food packed to go. We said we’d take it if it was almost ready. The server then came back and told us the wings wouldn’t be up to their quality standards, so they would remove them from the bill.
There was no real explanation for why our food took so long, no accountability, and no attempt to make things right beyond taking the wings off the bill after we’d already spent over an hour waiting.
A friendly reminder: if you’re running a Thursday wing special, make sure you’re properly staffed to handle it. Saying you’re understaffed isn’t a great excuse when the restaurant wasn’t busy. Also, telling customers it’s late doesn’t make sense when we arrived at 9:30 p.m. and the restaurant doesn’t close until midnight.
This was genuinely one of the worst dining experiences I’ve had. Unfortunately, I won’t be returning.

We have been to another location a few times, but we tried the Waterloo location while in the area. I'm a little delayed in writing this review - we visited around 6 weeks ago on a Saturday afternoon.
We both felt that everything about the Waterloo location was superior to the one we usually visit. The restaurant was clean and inviting. The food was great!
I wish I had gotten our server's name, because she was absolutely excellent! She was happy to give detailed suggestions to us when we were deciding on an app to share. Brought refills without being asked (I love when servers do this!) and anticipated all our needs throughout the meal. When I commented that my chicken fajitas were very good, but kind of lacking in onions, she was right back with an extra side of fried onions, which I really appreciated!
My husband said the nachos were some of the best he's ever had, and he orders nachos a lot! They came with a nice queso sauce on the side that has somehow never been present at the Cambridge location over several visits?
Like many people, we do not go to restaurants as much as we used to, due to rising costs. It was very nice to feel like this meal was worth every penny!
Next time we feel like Kelseys, we will definitely drive the 40 minutes to go to the Waterloo location. Thanks for a great meal!
Order:
Spinach dip with pita chips - half baked, half fried
Chicken Fajitas with lettuce wraps (and extra onions!)
