if you need gluten free meals do not go to this place, I was very disappointed with the service i received the other day simply because i needed my meal to be gluten free. To start off when we got there it was busy but pretty much every table that was in there had left by the time i had gotten to order my food. when it came my time to order there was probably 3 other tables in there with me and 2 of them had their food. The service was good up until i mentioned i would need my sweet potato fries oven baked instead of deep fried, the waitress responded with ‘we don’t do that here all our fries are deep fried’ I have went to multiple other ojs and they all offer the oven cooked fries for a gluten free option when i mentioned this she then changed it and goes ‘okay we do do that but not today cause it’s busy’ i asked her if she could double check with the kitchen as it’s the only way i am able to eat the fries without a reaction. she agreed too check with the kitchen then came back after almost 20 minutes to let me know that it would take extra long to get my food then and asked ‘if i actually needed them to do it’ i responded with a yes and that i would wait cause i wanted to actually be able to eat my food. it took about an hour to get my food and during that time the waitress was terrible, my drink sat empty multiple times even when i would try to stop and ask for a refill i would either get ignored or wouldn’t get one for almost 20 minutes. when my food finally came out everything was cold, even the fries that apparently were the reason the food was taking so long. i was so hungry after waiting so long though that i just ate my food and left. If you need a gluten free option i would not recommend this place i only went here cause i've had good experiences at other ojs in the province and now i know this place is definitely not a safe place for gluten allergies.

Don't bother with the cheesecake. The fries are super salty to offer to salt your own.

Meh…. Showed up there Saturday the 24th insanely overpriced all in it was 65$ for a burger, fries and raviolis. Raviolis were awful. I didn’t like the staff either, unnecessary condescending.
