Decent burger, basic poutine, good hot dog…read more There's something to be said about a yankee heading to a retro Americana diner. But I was hungry, and lots of places were closed on a Sunday. So I came here to try their grub. First off, it's very much what I think everyone thinks a quintessential diner is. Multi-colored swooshes patterns on the countertop, tons of pop culture icons plastered against the walls, American country music playing on the speakers. If there was ever a tourist trap then this is it. The server was very nice and accommodating. Explained the menu and answered questions quickly. We got a poutine, a burger and hot dog, and some onion rings to round everything out. Food came out relatively quick. Pacing was good, got the poutine out first to munch on before getting the rest. The quality is very much a basic greasy spoon diner back in the states. Lots of stuff fresh out the freezer, prepared like a beach stand with stuff quick fried and sent out. There was some care shown, the burger was lightly seasoned and not overcooked. Bun was fresh and the hot dog had a good char to it. Besides that, it was underwhelming overall. That being said, it wasn't bad. Yeah, it was generic but you don't go to a place like this for solid eats. You come here for that little reminder of home or to explore from the comfort of home. In those cases, this place works. Given that it was literally next door to a Texas bbq place, they very much knew what clientele they were aiming for. If you're curious to try some of the most basic food that the US has to offer, then this place will allow one to experience that without having to drive there. It's better than a fast food chain, but there's a LOT more to explore if you ever get the chance to visit.

the food is very good, the service and servers are great people, and the soup is second to noneread more

The servers all are super positive and seem to have great personalities. The menu is pretty diverse and the monthly themes with weekly specials are a fantastic touch. That being said the execution on the food is usually a little short of great. It seems like something is often just a little off. Coconut shrimp? Cooked 1 minute too long Creamy Parmesan Salmon pasta? Way too much Parmesan to the cream yields a very butter aftertaste. Butter chicken poutine? Dry chicken When they do hit it right the flavors are really solid. I'll usually come back when I'm traveling because the servers are so excellent. Hoping the kitchen can up the air game that extra half a notch.

I had supper tonight at the Chilled Cork…read more I ordered the pork chop special with tomato scalloped potatoes. Brittanie, my server, started me with yummy rolls and butter. A starter also came with the meal, either soup or salad. I chose the Mexican chicken and rice soup. It was hearty and delicious! Though I'd asked for no veggies or mushrooms, the meal came with both so I scraped them to the side. The pork chop was very good! I love scalloped potatoes and have never had them with tomatoes. These weren't scalloped potatoes as there was no cream. They were roasted potatoes with tomato sauce on top and weren't very good :( I was craving something sweet so ordered the warm chocolate cake. It was yummy! Brittanie and the other server took good care of me.

The food was excellent and still nice and hot when I picked it up. If you want all white meat you will have to pay an up charge fee. It's totally worth it and the piece sizes are generous. They also do family size dinners as well as individual meals. Totally recommend. Right in a small strip mall near the tracks at Richmond and Lacroix. There are multiple locations but this is the one to get broasted chicken. They do great breakfasts too. There is a dining area too with booths.

You kind of feel more like a close friend or family member. The food was amazing. I got fish and chips (but upgraded to a baked potato) and it was perfect! The fish was crispy and not too greasy. It's cod. I'm not a fish and chips connoisseur so I don't know if cod is always used... but if you were wondering, that's what it is here! I tried some of my husband's fries and they tasted very similar to McDonald's! They just need salt! They also offer a few flavors of cupcakes that they make themselves. We eat got one and tried each others and they were so good! We tried lemon, chocolate brownie, strawberry crunch, and carrot cake! Highly recommend!
