    Having stopped by Kooky Canuk for my first time, it is definitely a place I would return to. Generous portion sizes, a good atmosphere, and a great cookie dessert I would definitely recommend it for somebody else looking for a downtown restaurant. A good family restaurant, it is definitely an order where you could get good bang for your buck.

    Love Kooky’s unpretentious sports bar atmosphere with big food and big drinks. Large comfortable bar along with booths and tables. Prices have definitely increased a lot, but I appreciate how active the owner is in the community and in running his business. They do run some drink deals regularly. Longtime bartenders and servers are always great, including Sybil on this latest visit during brunch. Menu highlights include Canadian-inspired dishes, bbq egg rolls, holy smoke sauce (maybe the hottest sauce in town), and their delightful dill ranch.

    The service was meh at best. I ordered the biscuits and gravy which states “biscuits and sausage gravy”. In the south even at a Canadian Restaurant I was expecting white gravy and two biscuits. I was very disappointed to get one biscuit until I tasted it and thankful that one biscuit is all I wasted. One bite and I couldn’t eat any more. It was an abomination of biscuits and gravy and if Canadians feed their family this they should be ashamed of themselves. It tasted like a heavily saged dressing. The smell made me sick but couldn’t find the waitress to take it away.

    OMG, this place is awesome. We happen to get stuck in downtown for a week or so during the snow storm of January 26. Kooky was one of the only places to stay open, and they actually shoveled in front of the store, I seen zero others doing this. So after trying the first day, we went no where else pretty much all week. All the employees who could make it in, were being worked/ ran like crazy because they were so busy. Yet they all kept a smile on their face, and did their best to service everyone who came in. We can't thank the staff enough for all their hospitality. From the owner Shawn to Mike, and April at the bar, (I know we missed some names) we can't express enough how great everyone was. Every establishment could take notes and learn from Kooky. They definitely made customers for life out of us. The family and I will be back every time we're in the downtown area.

    Food was okay, fries were terrific but everything else was overcooked. The service and the staff were exceptional. I wouldn't come back for the food but I would definitely come back for the service in the atmosphere.
