    I dont care who you are, spending 40+ (with an added coupon offer) dollars on a combo for 2, with extras.... youd expect full bellies. But no, I am able to eat the entire thing within 5 minutes. The food? Not even good. For the amount of money you pay, youd expect quality ingredients, but things as simple as cheese porogies containing barely if any trace of cheese, with a filling that is purely starch and literally taste like seaweed is an insult to every customer. I am never coming near this place or any other swiss chalet, i cook better food at home and wont have to waste time on the drive etc.

    We were served by Jenna and she was so fast and kind. We were seen very shortly after being seated and she was very informative in the menu when we had question. We had their holiday menu and it was very tasty. We are going to enjoy the Lindt chocolate 😁

    Quiet afternoon. Service was fast and my server was helpful and friendly. New sangria drink on menu was yummy. Only complaint was my quarter chicken was unfortunately very small and not the best tasting.

    Was really busy last night but our server Beck made up for the long wait. They ran out of chicken but in the mean time beck checked in on us and made sure our drinks were full and coffee hot. Very good service, we will definitely be back when it is less busy

    I was there today with my girlfriend it was her birthday we had free appetizers which we had coupons for and then we asked about the free desert where it was her birthday and was told no the waiter wasnt very helpful the chicken I had was red and pink in the middle still not cooked fully the frys were cold and the buns were hard and were like cardboard. I wasnt pleased eith my visit and when I raised the concern the waiter said nothing she just shrugged it off like that was normal. The kempt road location has grease and dirt all over the seats with the half booth and half chair there was crayon marked all over the place the table had gum stuck under it and to my chair when I went in for my birthday back in july they had no issue with the free appetizer and then my birthday cheese cake 😀 I was not to pleased on this visit and my wife wasnt either I frequent visit this location oh not to mention that the bathroom had pee all over the toilet seat and floors and the mirrors were dirty the frys are cold by the tike they reach you as well some days is perfect going there but today I was very disappointed
