She let me try a fork full and I gotta say, it was the most horrible mash potatoes ever. It tasted chemically, like full of preservatves flavor. To me it tasted like how nursing homes have that smell. Very disappointed. Everything else was fine however, much to our chagrin, we were disappointed to learn that they do not serve coleslaw with fish and chips. Every other restaurant serves coleslaw slaw with fish and chips. We always had great meals in Crabby Joe's Stratford in the past but we felt a little put down this time.

The menu seemed a combo between Western standards with Asian twist/influence. We ordered the mushroom miso soup as well as the tofu bao, the fried chicken with macaroni salad and the fried chicken with fries. the tofu bao was really good, the tofu was a big size and nice coating. the mushroom miso soup was average, not great. the fries that came with the chicken were fantastic! the macaroni salad was ok, but hot mac n cheese would've gone better with the hot chicken. the chicken and the biscuit were decent. overall good portion size food and decent flavor in a nice ambiance

Lots of cheese, the pull was crazy. This will be our new regular spot when in the St. Jacob's Market area!

The dining room was very cozy. There was table and booth seating. It took a few minutes for a server to come to the table and then our server changed mid service.

Dessert was the highlight. The poached pear was delicious and I was told I ordered the last one. My partner enjoyed the chocolate cake as well. Our service went very fast.

Booooring. Good service, typical boutique / tourist destination restaurant pricing (not cheap),…read moremostly small plate servings...but overall a disappointment. We ordered: blue crab hashbrowns (the only standout; would definitely order again, except that I won't likely return), salt roasted beets, brussel sprout caesar, scallops, and duck breast; then we both had creme brûlée and espresso. We tried the three white wines, one was a forgettable Chardonnay and the other two...were equally forgettable, notwithstanding being less common grapes. Only the duck was a main-size serving, and we only chose it because when we ordered there was only one order of scallops remaining (for a 5:30 seating!). I want to say "just as well" because the scallops and sauce were bland so we got to try something else...however the duck was not merely uninteresting but the red pepper sauce didn't complement and contributed nothing. The scallops were priced like a main but only four little guys on the plate, the one upside if we had both chosen them we'd have had room for another order of those crab hashbrowns. The beets were also dull, no idea why the word salt is in the name because it was absent from the dish. No tang to anything except the brussel Caesar. I've seen the brussel sprout restaurant renaissance of the last 10-15 years, this dish is pretty common now. This one was on a par with many others I've had but no improvement, and some might be put off: fully half the outer leaves are charred to the point of becoming a mouthful of ash. Not crispy, just dry ash. I guess that's different...and maybe this is the root of the problem. This restaurant makes a point of changing their menu constantly; not just seasonally, but weekly, even daily. So maybe they're just trying out stuff that pops into the chef's head. With the exception of the crab, every dish seemed to need something to make it interesting or appealing. The espresso was good, but the creme brûlée was another ill conceived concoction, with some kind of raspberry trifle thing on the bottom and the creme was a strange thick porridge-like texture and not quite the typical flavour. Last complaint: their self-description says Elevated Comfort. No. Mundane bistro look and ok seating, but that steep and poorly lit descent to the basement washrooms is the opposite of comfort. Hey, maybe we just picked the wrong items from their evolving experiment of a menu. The people are all nice, the service was good, and none of the food was bad...just meh.

We were seated upon arrival and the place was busy enough on a Friday night to make us glad we reserved a table. The staff were friendly and welcoming and our server spent time with us to explain the small plates concept of the restaurant. The servings are designed to be shared and the servings are larger than traditional Tapas. 3 - 4 shared dishes were recommended for a party of 2. We went for 3 plus dessert. Our choices were Grilled Brussel Sprout Cesar, Braised Short Rib Stuffed Yorkshire Puddings, and Wild Blue Crab Cake. Dessert was Creme Brulee. All were well prepared, nicely plated, ample, and delicious. We were very, very satisfied. Compared with our dinner the night after we were happy with the overall price paid and the ambiance. The place was fairly full but yet didn't feel crowded and we were able to converse normally. We never felt rushed and the staff were attentive without being intrusive. We finished our meal with time to stroll to the Festival theatre along the river with time to relax on a bench and watch the world. We'll be back.
