Met some friends here for dinner after a wonderful dinner the night before at another local place…read moreserving far different fare. The interior is very plain, and somewhat looks thrown together, and that's ok. It's not trying to be anything other than what it is, no apologies. When your claim to fame is a dinner, or lunch, on top of a Caesar in a glass, you are kind of throwing up your middle in defiance aren't you. The service was good, everything was well taken care of. The food itself is good and quite abundant. K's wings were very nicely cooked and quite plump. The sauce was meh, but that's a personal choice. The taco salad, which we shared was quite good as well, but the taco chips could have been of a better quality, or better yet made in house. My beef dip was pretty good, not fatty at all which is a turn off for me. Fries were abundant, but the au jus needed a helping hand. Our guests had wings as well and a hot chicken sandwich. Both were quite good as well. I could have seen a five star, and it was quite close, just not quite there. We'd go again though next time we are in Parksville!

I was really wanting a good burger & seen location listed in what I think is called the "taste of…read morethe Island" for local restaurant features of Parksville & Qualicum Beach. I was surprised to find them still open on a week night in Nov but on Remembrance Day, I felt I hit the jackpot. I suspect I wasn't the only one searching for good food options, as the limited seating indoors filled up quickly. The burger was really good (and they prepare you for messy - with the heap of napkins delivered to the table) but it was the parm fries that sent the supper over the top. So much, that I actually had to stop myself eating the parm fries & the delicious dip & enjoy the burger while still hot. I actually took leftover fries home - that's a very rare thing for me to do. The strawberry milkshake was tasty on its own & I wasn't prepared for the brownie chunk that accompanied it (I truly had dessert before supper that night!). There's covered outdoor seating but I suspect they weren't expecting a huge crowd as I didn't feel any heat as I walked by both covered areas to wait to be seated in the restaurant. There's street parking & as well, a uniquely configured smaller parking lot area that I assume the restaurant & the nearby shops share. Staff was all very friendly & even though I was my myself & wasn't there long, I enjoyed the atmosphere. For those that worry about a washroom axes, this legit was right in the front & big enough for any accessible aid logistics to maneuver within. Nothing blocking access to it either (amazing for such a small indoor space). Lastly, if you're picking up the food, this is near to all the big hotels by the boardwalk & beach. So perfect walking distance for those that want to take to enjoy elsewhere.

Good old fashion quality food and fast service. They do not scrimp on the fixings either.read more

Goat Jack's was a former White Spot which was renovated for new ownership. Unfortunately shortly before they were to reopen a truck was left in neutral at the top of the parking lot and rolled down the slope crashing into the newly renovated restaurant. Thankfully repairs were done and Jacks opened. It's a nice space, maybe a little dark, but with a bright bar area. We were quickly seated in the back left in a very large booth for the four of us. The menu features wings, but has other offerings as well. The lovely K ordered the wings with hot sauce and the nachos, neither of which she found to be very good. I had the BBQ burger, and fries, both of which were pretty good. Taste is a personal matter, but service isn't, and our server was excellent. Her only faux pas was filled our friend's Mike's Hard lemonade glass with water when it was almost empty while she had a full water glass beside. She apologized program's fetched Val another Mike's on the house. The four was more about the service than the food, but again taste is a personal thing, but you can't beat great service. They just have to get the food up a half a notch in our opinion.

We were looking for a light meal so after grabbing donuts, we walked over to Homestead Cookhouse…read more It's an odd mashup of Canadian and Asian food. They're located in the same plaza as Turtle Island Fish & Chips and Harbour Scoop Ice Cream. We dropped in on a Friday afternoon (around 3:15pm). The inside is tiny but there's a couple tables outside to sit at. From what I could gather, it appears to have changed ownership. Hence the addition/assortment of random Asian food. The menu is small with about 20 options; sandwiches, poutine, hot dogs, dumplings, ramen and beef/chicken teriyaki. - Philly cheesesteak and fries ($10.99) - this is not a real cheesesteak so keep that in mind. At least the beef wasn't overcooked and there were a couple pieces of mushroom and grilled onions. The fries were terrible; dry, tasteless and reminded me of McCain fries you buy from the grocery store. Nothing particularly exciting about HC but prices are cheap. 2.5 stars.

My strongest critique is their hiring practices. It would be nice to see a restaurant hire outside of the Indian community for once. It's frustrating to have to repeat my order six times before they get it right. I don't know how many times I have to say "add bacon" for them to actually add bacon to my burger.

Second the guy who took my order had such a heavy accent that I had to keep asking him to repeat what he said. Your front line staff should be understandable. I was the only one in the place. After the food came I know why. Seriously overcooked sandwich. The bread was grilled almost paper thin. The pickles and lettuce gave me burns on my fingers when I picked up the sandwich. There was barely any chicken and what there was had no flavour. In fact none of it had any flavour. A complete lack of seasoning. Very disappointing. Also the bathroom was locked so I could not use it and there was no one at the counter to offer me a key so I just left. This place will never see another dime from me.

We didn't expect a place such as this on the highway in between towns to be open at 11 AM on New Years Day, but there it was beckoning our hungry selves. Boy are we happy we stopped! The place is small and attached to a general store which looked to be well stocked. The restaurant was busy but the tables turned quick and we sat and were very promptly served by a smiling young man who took our tea orders and dropped water for us as well. We were given a little appetizer of blueberries, dragon fruit and pineapple along with a delicious obviously home made nut loaf which was delicious! Our orders were taken and the food delivered very quickly and piping hot. The portions were generous and well prepared. We would certainly stop by this little diamond in the rough if we find ourselves on the old Island Highway again. Thanks for a great meal!
