Updated review April 2026 We came here on a Saturday night…read more The place was packed and loud. We got seat on the bar tables. We ordered the chicken souvlaki and lamb souvlaki dinners. Both dinners were decent portions and filling. The rice has improved as well. The chicken and rib combo was realy good. Kudos on the kitchen staff for making our dinner enjoyable. I increased my rating from 3 to 4 stars. I recommend this restaurant for delicous pub and bar food. Their menu is diverse and most of the items are a hit.

If I could give a zero, I would!...For starters I ordered an over priced salad ...I didn't think…read moretoo much could go wrong with a salad ...but apparently I was wrong!...The walnuts in the salad were RANCID...I asked for no onions, but somehow ended up with what seemed like EXTRA onion and spent the next 10 minutes picking out all the onion !...The chicken, that I paid an extra $9 extra for, was so dry and overcooked it was pretty much PETRIFIED... .the other parts of our meal were equally as bad....While there I witnesses a server "Tori" (who reminds me of Roz from Monster Inc) SCREAM from across the restaurant at another server while holding 2 glasses of chocolate milk for children above her head (not the only thing we witnessed from her this visit) ... She was completely unhinged and miserable!!! ....So glad she wasn't our server!... We nicknamed her Tyrant Tori, attempting to make light of the situation ...but to be honest, this is NOT the type of atmosphere I want to be in when paying to enjoy a meal out... Unfortunately, we could feel the tension and TOXIC work environment that exists here....I really hope the owners do something about this...but maybe they created the environment.....In summary DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY at this place...McDonald's across the street would be a huge step up!...and that's saying a lot!...

I had the fried shrimp sandwich (on a separate menu) and my partner had the fish and chips. The food was definitely pub food. I enjoyed my sandwich a lot but it was massive. I had to take the shrimp out of the bread. The fish and chips was reportedly also good. Service was prompt and prices were reasonable.

I definitely said ok ..... when Marissa arrived she's going to cut me off permalitly , and never return... this was totally uncalled for .... nik... was a great suggestion... and I followed it . how ever Marissa was bery acressive because she thinks ... she's the boss , I haven't drank for over a year ...... she wasn't as that way at all . I would gladly drink soda water.... Marissa slow down with the power you have , you extend it too far over and over again, You love your favourites , but that's not fair to those you choose not so much attention, Good luck ! You are the worst bartender I have ever seen in 50 yrs .

It was also the special at Mackenzie Pub in Ajax, every Friday - only $12.95. This was a reunion of sorts with friends from high school so having a drink with them was appropriate. A shot of Appleton Rum with Coke was my drink of choice. Service for our group was very good, not always the case at some places I've been to. No orders got mixed up, used plates and glassware were cleared efficiently. Good service, good food, very reasonable prices. What else could we wish for?

The manager/owner takes an interest in customers and the 3 times I've been, someone's stopped us to make sure we enjoyed our visit. This is probably a great place for sports fans as the multiple screens broadcast endless sports. This, combined with the uncomfortable hard wooden chairs, make it an OK place for me, but not one of my favourites.

Overall bad experience. On a Wednesday night, there weren't many people, but our meal which…read moreconsisted of 2 entrees and 1 app took 35 mins to get to the table. Then when we received our food, there was barely a handful of fries with one of the entrees. I'd have to say 11 french fries in total. Then for my entrée, which was a salad, it was absolutely drowning in salad dressing. It was basically a soup. To make matters worse, the spinach clearly wasn't fresh and was shriveling up. Portion was also very small. These two entrees, one app, and 2 beers came to 70$. Service from the waitress was good, but will never return because of the over priced food. Not impressed at all. The menu looked good, but everything was overpriced and I really doubt the food will be delivered as it looks on the menu.

This was our most recent visit to St Louis bar & grill. We were looking for a good happy hour deal…read moreand saw the $4 appies and drinks. We ordered Angus burger with fries $12.99 and Chicken lettuce wraps $11.99. The burger was thick and juicy. Great tasting burger with nice grilled taste. The fries portion was too small. Perhaps cost cutting since it was in the happ hour menu. The chicken lettuce wraps were top notch excellent flavor profile. I can taste the hoisin sauce and mixture of fried onion rings, peppers, and onions. Great dish, only wish they gave more lettuce. The beers are cheap here however when the server offerred us an upgrade to Devil sized draughts for $1 we were sold on it. Unfortunately, when the bill came we were charged $6.99 per 24oz pint instead of $5. My wife didn't want to complain and paid the bill. This left a bad taste in our mouth no pun intended. Please do not mislead customers on drink upgrades or ensure the accuracy of the order. Overall, the happy hour menu is decent. We will try the $4 sliders, cheesy honey buns, and pickle coins next time. Beware of food and beverage upgrades and check your bill before paying. I hope the service and food portions improve next time. It will be a while before I come back!This was our most recent visit to St Louis bar & grill.

I ordered my usual Lemon Pepper dry rubbed wings, with fries. It was a good portion, with crispy fries but the wings appeared really dark and a bit burnt. Maybe stale oil? It was hard for me to tell since my tastebuds are still compromised. I'll have to try again when I'm better.

Our evening on their spacious patio started with some refreshing cocktails - Tequila Sunrise, Grand Thai Tea, and Sparkling Mango Mint. They looked good and tasted great! We ordered the Sharing Platter to start, while we decided on the rest of our meal. It included chicken tenders, onion rings, garlic cheese fingers, pickle spears, carrot and celery sticks, and assorted dips. It was all good! For our main courses, we got a bit carried away. Everything on the menu looked really good and it was hard to choose so we ended up with Fish Tacos, Triple Decker Club Sandwich, Chicken Cobb Salad, Buffalo Chicken Pizza, Fajitas, and the Kids' Burger. Everything tasted great, with the fish tacos, cobb salad, and fajitas being our favourites. If we weren't so stuffed, we would have tried their desserts. Next time. With good food and good service, we'll definitely return!

Your first order is 6 wings after that you get 4 and it's annoying waiting between orders. It's what you expect from a Bar...greasy fries, old washrooms, and a big TV over the bar. A decent spot, but not worth getting excited over. Beware though..it's not free refills. I paid over 9$ for name brand coke.... Overall 2 of 5

I had seen tons of signs around the local area promoting the "all you can eat wings."…read moreI thought it was a great concept, I just never took the time to go check it out. One night the guys from work and I decided we would go for a beer & wings. $13 for the all you can eat wings, and we split a pitcher. You pick your sauce and you start with 6 wings...........then slowly......... yep........ slowly they bring you refills of 4. They make you wait. No doubt part of the strategy, I assume they hope you get full waiting. Perhaps they think it will reduce waste. During our visit we got full while waiting and two us wasted 3 of the 4 wings each. I think this is such a stupid practice. (A) I'd never suggest anyone check it out! So no good word of mouth coming from me (or anyone in my group). (B) I'd certainly not rush to go back here, not now, possibly not ever. During our visit I asked the lady if we could double our order, I let her know I'd eat over 10 wings easily. I was told, "no, other people are waiting." Like you cant drop more in the fryer ? The kicker, the place had two other tables of apx 3 people per table. So 9 people including my group. But again, this is what they make you do. Slow service hoping you get full. I guess they want your $13 and no repeat business. Bar is dated and old looking, as I would suspect. Bathrooms were AWFUL. To be fair I should add, the wings were decent in size. The sauces are just your local grocery store sauces. The wings are all cooked the same, then sauced in your pick. We tried the HOT - it was dusted with some odd spice, not good. The Bufalo wings we ok. The sweet chili reminds me of the PC sauce I buy from no frills, and the parm/garlic were decent. All in all I would not go back. The expericne does not warrant another visit. The way in which they serve the customers is just off putting.

Not a lot of great options in the Pickering area yet for foods, but we stumbled across The Social…read moreBar & Lounge. For those who are familiar, this is very similar to Smash Kitchen vibes. Menu is a tad over priced, but I can't deny it tastes good. Not overly salty or oily as bar food often is, and I actually really enjoyed their pasta. It's definitely a great place to go for a bit of a splurgy night with friends where you're prepared to pay $20-40 per person. I like it for a date night to have some heavier foods that I wouldn't want to try cooking at home. The short rib pappardelle was the best. I love the flavour and it's not too crazy heavy, even though it looks really creamy. It has very beef stew type vibes. The chicken wings were well cooked and still moist. I think it was too much flavour going on though. You LOVE the first and even second wing. But by the third one, I felt like it was getting too heavy. I know though that a lot of people love that and can't get enough of it. I personally don't like too much of any one thing. The brussel sprouts I felt the same. It's really yum for the first few bites but it gets really heavy after a while. I think it's really fun to have the appetizers and share a main with someone. The foods are a bit heavier, more of a flavour bomb, but everything is executed well and the staff are really nice! We've even done take out and the portions were very much the same.

This venue is very intimate and comfortable for a birthday celebration…read more The owners are very friendly and kind. The food prepared for the party were delicious. We got fried fish fillets, beef caldereta, Filipino spaghetti, and roasted chicken. They have state of the art sound equipment and lights. There are LED screens around the venue for karaoke or playing videos or photo slide shows. I recommend this venue if you're looking to organize a party. They do have live band music on the weekends. Be sure check their website for details. Thank you Elevate Lounge for hosting my sister-in-law's birthday party.

There were pool tables at the back and a large dance floor that was packed. Free parking is always a bonus. Cover was $5 after 9:30pm.
