The hamburger patties seemed like hockey pucks ,they had been fried the day before and reheated. The french fries also were horrible and weird tasting ,The taste of everything was horrible. The water even was bitter and very chlorinated. The price of one meal was deducted from the bill. A couple hours after getting home stomach feeling very upset. whoever was cooking. Did a horrible job. it is becoming increasingly difficult to have a good dining experience anywhere in Winnipeg these days. I have had at least four bad dining experiences already. This just tops the list. The service was slow. The ambiance is gone. This was once a great place to eat. But now it is on a downward death spiral.

I was a…read moreregular, same order almost everyday; bacon cheese dog w/ no pickles, but it seems as if they've gotten greedy, taking me and my money for granted. They don't punch in my order, just put my cash straight into the tip jar. Several times they've forgotten to make my hotdog, cause there's no ticket and have left me waiting, serving other customers that arrive after me but not recognizing that I'm still sitting there! And when I finally have to step up and point out that I'm still waiting, I'm the asshole! I'm the one being rude or making a scene! I just wanted what I paid for. I show up almost everyday, I'm polite, I pay cash, I don't cause problems while I'm waiting, I tip, I smile, I treat others with respect.... It would be nice to get some in return. And now, when I don't show up again, there's no way for you to make things better with me, but maybe, reading this, you'll learn to cherish your regulars, respect the peop!e who show up in your business and respect you. I'm gonna miss those foot long bacon and cheese hotdogs, with the fresh onions, chili and mustard! Mmmmmm. I regret feeling like I have to say these words but like I said, this wasn't the first time. Wishing you the best.

A very nice diner that you wouldn't expect from the street, Johnny's served my group of four in…read moreclassic style with good attention and good food. We walked in with accessibility needs, and they happily sat us down in the lower level at our convenience, at a large table (two tables together) so that we could get our group arranged with ease. They happily provided as much water as we needed throughout our time. Service was prompt and attentive. The ambiance was only okay, especially being in a side room; the main room is 3 steps up but felt more like the body of a restaurant vs. the trailer of a classic NJ diner. We also all had to walk up in the end and pay separate checks instead of getting 1 or more checks delivered to our table. Diner style, sure, but not what we were expecting coming in. So I would say, between the food (we all really went breakfast-oriented), the service, and the atmosphere, it's somewhere around 4 stars on average. Not a bad place for breakfast or lunch if you can find it (it's not in the most walkable neighborhood).

I have been here a lot of times. Always good food and service. This last time was an exception. My…read morefriends got there before I did and they had numerous drinks before I arrived. Once I was seated and we had ordered the server proceeded to tell us they had a reservation shortly for this table. Then why didn't you say anything before I was seated and ordered or move us to another table. And the whole time I was trying to stuff food into me we were getting dirty looks from all the servers. I get that it is a pain to have people sit for a bit but we were trying to have a meal and a visit. I guess next time we will got somewhere that allows us to eat slow and relax My friend gave the server her AMEX to pay. She came back to the table and said sorry it didn't go through. How embarrassing for my friend. She used another card. Later called the restaurant and was told they don't accept AMEX. So why didn't the server say that. Instead she said it didn't go through and embarrassed her for no reason. Luckily she was with friends who understood not business clients. May be time to switch to a new favorite restaurant in my location.

+.5 for service…read more Quantity wise this place is amazing. Quality wise it's fine, not something I'd have often but it's fine. Taverna Rodos is located in Charleswood, and was quite popular when I went here recently with a friend. I had the pork souvlaki, which came with a lot of rice and even more vegetables. I'll be honest, I enjoyed the rice and veggies way more than the pork lol. The pork felt quite dry sadly, if it wasn't for the spices it would've been worse. Service is excellent. I'm sure there are other better items here given the plentiful menu options. I'm content on giving this 3-stars for now and re-evaluate if I decide to return here.

On good days their sandwiches are delicious. They like locals and other Canadians, I would say they are good for friend groups but I don't think this is a place for tourists. I loved their Corned Beef Sandwich and they approved the request for cheese to be added. Their Philly Cheesesteak was pretty good but not the best I've had. Overall I kind of like this place but it's seen better days. I hope more business and success helps.

One day I went into this place and ordered a sandwich. The person preparing it washed her hands and…read moreput plastic gloves on. So far so good. Next, after handling the bread and other ingredients with her gloved hands, she began to handle the uncooked bacon that was ultimately going to go on my sandwich, also using the same gloves. She was preparing to quickly microwave the bacon before placing it on the sandwich. I pointed out to her that she should not be handling the bacon right out of its package with the same gloves that she was using to touch all the other ingredients. Instead of correcting course, by apologizing, switching gloves, or doing something else reasonable, this food handler began to strongly argue with me that the bacon was "already cooked." Why the use of the microwave then? Was it just to warm up the bacon? I did my research online. Packaged bacon is "cured", which means that it is prepared with salt and nitrates to inhibit the growth of bacteria. However, uncooked bacon, especially if it has been left open and unthawed for sometime, can still harbour bacteria and cause food poisoning. So no, I do not want someone handling uncooked bacon with the same gloves that they use to handle all the other ingredients. I especially do not want someone arguing with me about this!

3.5/5 I've been here…read moretwice and have had one subpar experience and one excellent experience. Average it out and I give it 3.5/5. The first time I came here service was poor. It took almost 30 minutes for my friend and I to be served at the bar. The first time I was here I had the roundhouse mac n cheese. It was good though nothing special, but the poor service definitely cancelled out what was decent food. The second time I came here on a work dinner, where we somehow stuffed almost 20 people on a long table. Service was a lot better, though maybe it was because I was with a large group. I went during poutine week, so I had the Taco Mac n Cheese Poutine. The mac n cheese was actually mac n cheese bites, which was ehh...but I liked the concept! Cheese curds are good, size was generous, and the nacho beef was cooked well and juicy. So to cancel both visits out, I'll leave is as 3.5/5 for now. If I get good service next visit I'll be happy to bump this up to a 4.

This past Tuesday, a friend and I went there for dinner before the Dasha concert down the street at the Park Theatre. The lone waitress shared that it was her second shift. The place was packed and we waited an eternity for our drinks, and what should have been an enjoyable dining experience ended up being a tense, unpleasant few hours. The waitress was not to be faulted at all. The management should have known to have another server given that a packed to the rafters concert was going on a block away. The food was great, but I will be hard pressed to go back there again.

My friend tried the interesting burger called The Oakwood Crown and Coke burger. He said the juice tasted like that popular alcoholic drink. He said it was pretty delicious.

The potatoes were also well made. The waitress was super helpful and sweet. This place seems welcoming to all types of people from what I saw. I definitely recommend this place.
