We had come here at around 1:30 pm on a Friday afternoon. The place wasn't too busy at the time…read morehowever, there was a large party of about 15 people at the table behind us; it looked to be some sort of a work function. We were seated on the second level in a booth, which had the large window opened all of the way. There were three children and two adults in our party therefore, we were given both children and adult menus to order from. My son settled on the chicken fingers with fries, while my daughter chose the hamburger with fries. I decided on the avocado dip with nachos, although the dip wasn't really a dip, as it was chunkier than I had liked. The food took about 15 minutes to arrive, which wasn't too long however, the kids were a tad restless having to wait. Both of my children's dishes had a large amount of fries, with only a small amount of chicken strips and hamburger. My avocado dip had an overflow of nachos, yet not a lot of avocado. It also had too much onion, which made the dish taste strong. The service was good throughout our entire stay, with the server checking on us periodically to make sure that we were okay. The food was mediocre, and definitely not worth the price that we had paid. Overall, would most likely not return to this restaurant. To be honest, we only dined here as it was the closest to the movie theatre that we were at therefore, it wasn't our first choice initially.

The customer service is good at this location, the guy who took my order was very nice and friendly, although it was late at night and he might've been really tired. I got cheeseburger with fries and added tomato, mushrooms, dill pickle and extra sauce to my burger. I also got a complimentary bag of donuts. My food took longer than I expected to get ready, but the burger was perfectly cooked. Something I didn't like was that the meat and all sauces were very salty.

Stopped by for lunch on our way to Niagara Falls. We chose to sit at the bar instead of at a table…read morebecause even though there was a sign saying to wait to be seated, no one came and greeted us. Service was honestly pretty bad. The lady serving us was rude and I understand she may be the only one manning the tables, but it honestly was not too busy since only 4 tables taken and it was not peak hours, but the tone she kept using with us to "give her a second" was not pleasant. We ordered a BBQ chicken chop salad, the original hamont burger with fries, and two beers. Food took a while to come out. Salad was really fresh but I didn't know it came with beans, which I'm not a fan of. Burger was honestly a bit too salty and dry for me. I also tried asking for ranch for my fries but was told it's an additional $2CAD?! That's pretty expensive for someone from SoCal since sauce is usually free or at most 25 cents in LA. Parking was convenient because we were lucky and found metered parking right iufside

However, there's not ethical issue as that's the name they had when they opened 50 years ago - so I can't blame them for not changing it. The menu is effectively, burgers, hot dogs, fries, poutine and pita/souvlaki type items. We went with the chicken souvlaki combo with fries. Both the fresh cut fries and meat was cooked to order. Pretty simple, but as the saying goes "good food makes good food". Perfectly cooked chicken with a nice char that was well-seasoned in advance. The tzaziki was authentic and went well in the wrap with lettuce, tomato and the grilled onions available at no extra charge. Fresh-cut fries are always a win. Similar tasting to the fries at Swiss Chalet. Seems like a place that you can't really go wrong with if you're in the mood for this type of thing, and good location right off the lake.

While the service was good, it was also pretty slow and the restaurant overall wasn't the cleanest. I did enjoy the fact that they really leaned into their theme, especially with the menu and the decor. it was definitely consistent. My brother and I both got Burger combos and felt that the food was pretty good but also really heavy. I wasn't a huge fan of the style of fries they chose or the coleslaw that they gave on the side. I think the coleslaw was made ahead of time and was sitting out because it did not look the freshest. Overall it was worth a try but I don't think I'll be back.
