Bubi has been the buzz every time I'm in Windsor n today after a long day of shopping, my boyfriend n his mom had decided to finally go. Despite the horrible freezing rain in Windsor, it didn't stop the hungry people from rollin' into this joint. Upon waiting for a table, I noticed a poster advertising the grasshopper brand of beer. I definitely love this beer n had to order it. My bf n his mom ordered a water which came in a giant big mason jar. This hidden gem had a spectacular menu, filled with a variety of different options from burgers, sammies to salads. I ordered half a rack of ribs with a poutine, my bf ordered the baja burger with a side of fries n my bf's mom ordered the basic burger w/ a side of onion rings. We had also ordered a basic burger with onion rings to go as well. Although the restaurant was busy, my party waited 50 minutes for our food to arrive. The family of six who came in slightly after us, ordered their food, ate and left even before our meal had arrived. I understand if a restaurant is busy n if the food takes a bit longer to arrive, but it would have been great if the server came over to let us know the meal was still coming n that we weren't forgotten. The food arrived n everything tasted amazing. The fries were extremely fresh n crispy. My ribs had the right amount of sauce n fell right off the bone. The onion rings were extraordinarily delicious with the best batter I've ever had. Once the meal was over, I was so full that I couldn't move. The dessert menu that they offered had a variety of different cheesecakes. I ordered one to go n asked for the bill. The server had let us know that the take out would be out shortly. The price of the food was pretty standard n comparable to all the restaurant in Downtown Toronto. As we were waiting for the take-out, my bf had left to warm the car up. We waited about 10 minutes after paying for the bill n our server was no where to be seen. I went back to the bar to inquire about the take-out n I finally bumped into our server again. The restaurant most definitely lived up to the hype of the delicious food, however the service could be a lot better.

Slow...slow...slow. We came in right as they opened and were told to sit anywhere... People who came after got their food, ate-paid, and even left. Not sure if they just have poor service and suck at keeping track of customers or if it is because we're not Canadian or white. But the food was good. We all ordered burgers ( I ordered a veggie burger) and fries and they were delicious. If the food was not good I would have given this place a 1. Good food so it gets a three. I would try again maybe we just got them on a bad day but the slowness was almost unbearable.

I can't say enough good things about this place. Everything I've had was good. Everything my friends have had was good. The vibe is layed back. It's right downtown and close to lots of night life type stuff. Don't forget to "Dillon" your fries!

What a great place! Awesome for our large group, and the food selection is phenomenal. Staff are great, always smiling, and able to answer any question in a matter of seconds. Asked the waitress what burger she would recommend and instantly told me three top sellers! I especially like the large mason jars for drinks. One thing I hate when going to a restaurant is the small glasses and not quick enough refills. A large mason jar eliminates this, and to be honest this made my experience that much better. For any buddy wondering if it's children friendly, it sure is. The staff are great with the children and seem to bend over backwards for any guest in attendance! Cheers guys! Thanks for a great experience! Signed, The big boondock who eats on the regular!

Came here on a Monday night and was fairly empty, staff was very polite and the setting was dim and had a feel of being in someone's house. (Kind of reminded me of a haunted house with the portraits and paintings on the wall). Both ordered their "blue ribbon" ribs and was told that it was "tough meat" since it was not "grilled or baked in the oven". Still unsure as to how it was cooked as waitress didnt know herself. Amount of food was plenty, quality of food would give a 3-star rating. Really liked their garlic salad dressing and garlic bread

So I use to go to Bubi's every so often for the Stripteasers -- strips of beef in this awesome BBQ sauce with their awesome fries and of course, Bubi's sauce....but it was always hit or miss with this place. So eventually I forgot all about Bubi's and never really went back. But one day I was driving by and saw the sign about they were featured on the Food Network. So I googled it and found the episode. I figured that I would give them a try again... I went for lunch with a few colleagues from work. They all saw the video from the show and 3 out of 5 of us decided to order the Best of the Breast (see pic) One person ordered the Thai Coconut dish (see pic) and the other ordered a wrap. Service was good, so no complaints there and the food came pretty quick. Portions are generous --- not a single person finished their food. I ordered the Best of the Breast and for some reason I felt like it had a funny after taste to it. I ate it, but it wasn't something I particularly cared for. As for the fries, they've changed them since I was last there. They use to be these wedge cut fries and they were awesome with the Bubi's sauce. But now they're really greasy and cut differently...kind of reminded me of a greasy KFC French fry, but a little thicker. Nonetheless, the Bubi's sauce was pretty good. The other two people who ordered the chicken strips said they were good, but it didn't seem like they were too crazy about them. My coworker who ordered the Thai dish enjoyed her meal, as well as the other one who ordered the wrap. But I didn't try either of their meals, so I can't really give my opinion on them. I agree with some of the other reviews that this place is over-hyped. I wouldn't recommend this place, but I wouldn't convince anyone not to eat here either. I'll probably go back and get the Stripteasers, since it's been a long time since I had them....but not anytime soon.

Love the Chicken Quesadillas, especially the crispy tortilla and the full cheese inside, the chicken was tender too. My bf had the basic burger but he somehow didn't like it.

My GF is from Windsor and she absolutely adores this place.. I mean she honestly LOVES it. They were also just featured on "You Gotta Eat Here" on Food Network apparently although I'm not completely sure what items would have been featured on the show. Certainly couldn't have been their french fries which were frozen and from a bag for sure. We went just last week, my first visit, and my thoughts are mixed.. I think the place is pretty gimmicky really. Burger was on the small side (although you can upgrade to a bigger size for more money.. default burger is only 5oz. which is too small IMO), smaller than it should be especially for the money. No pink left in it which makes me a little skeptical about whether they are even fresh ground or not, but it's still a decent burger. Fries as mentioned above were very bland, boring and definitely frozen.. The "garlic sauce" that people seem to love here is a bad accompanyment for the fries in my opinion and seems like something that should be on a shawarma rather than served with your fries, but she loves it, so it's definitely YMMV Beer was affordable and ice cold which was nice, Steamwhistle on tap will always make me a happy camper A solid 3 to 3.5 stars IMO although I'm a little perplexed about how this place would make it onto the Food Network... I didn't see anything that looked homemade really

Great food. Had the totally awesome burger and the name fit the burger. My girlfriend had the chicken salad and had no complaints. Great atmosphere and felt like home. Great size cups for the drinks it was a huge mason jar. Would for sure visit again if im in the windsor area. Keep up the great work Bubi's!!!
