Lumberjacks is another restaurant I have re-discovered since moving to the deep south side…read more I had eaten here a number of times, years ago but had not given it much thought until I recently found myself driving past regularly. I went in a few weeks ago, and had an omelette in the "Sportsman's Lounge" and found it quite good. With this in my mind, I decided to break fast on a recent Sunday, and chose the main restaurant. It was a little disconcerting to go in at 1:30 on a Sunday afternoon and find the place completely empty. A server came out and reassured me the "lunch rush" had just ended, and that they were still open. I was seated, given a menu and ordered coffee. The menu is not as full as it was in my former days here, but there were a good number of breakfast options, which was why I was here. Having perused the menu, I opted for the "Southwest Breakfast Wrap," which stuck my fancy. The food took about 30 minutes to appear, which surprised me, as I was the only patron in the restaurant. There was just the one server, and her appearances were sporadic, at best. When the wrap landed it looked pretty good, but I have to say... the only way this could be described as "Southwest" was if it was prepared in the southwest corner of the kitchen. When I think "Southwest," I think of piquante dishes, with spice and Mexican flavours. This wrap was entirely devoid of seasoning, and the salsa was from a jar, with no spark what so ever. They were kind enough to provide an extra ramkin of the salsa which went untouched. The ketchup had more flavour and heat. On the plus side, the potatoes were quite tasty, and the coffee was decent. Restaurant - 3/5 Dated decor and a little creepy when dead empty. Food - 2/5 The flavour profile of a cafeteria in a senior's home. Service - 3.5/5 The server was pleasant, when I actually saw her. I am not sure when I may return, as there are so many better options.

Crazy busy on weekends. Came at 11AM and didn't even want to know the wait time as the line was out…read morethe door. Came back a different weekend morning and was told 20minutes wait. I think we waited at least 15. Huge waiting area inside, lots of seating (?could it not be used for more tables for diners?). Place is super busy and a bit chaotic and rushed. Menu looked good, but my friend was raving about the flavored pancakes. Food took soooo long to come, I wish I would have timed it but for 2 orders of pancakes (granted 1 was a special order AND I ordered chicken which may have been freshly fried) I was shocked how long it took. I know we arrived at just after 11AM and didn't get food until after 12:20PM. I got the chicken breakfast sandwich + classic pancake. It was tasty but after soo much waiting would not order again. Friend got the seasonal lemon pancakes. Liked same. Overall I would love to try more of the menu but between the wait to get seated and the wait for food I probably won't make much of an effort to come back.

We were just seated and they did not tell us there's hardly any food left on the trays. I asked our server until what time they refill their trays and he said should be up to 2pm but there were so many people and short kitchen staff. I told him that its disappointing should let us know just to order from the menu. We paid full price for the buffet ( almost $72 for 2 adults and 1 kid) and I saw 2 people coming in close to 2PM and same they just show them to their table and did not inform them no food left. Food taste is not great bland . We will not return there and will not recommend the place. Go somewhere else there are other Filipino restaurants that are better.

We were all thumbs up on the coffee, and all of us LOVED the ambiance. It's so fun looking at all the stuff on the walls. I'd love to come back for lunch if I'm back in town again but this visit was for brekkie. I was a bit nervous when the eggs bennie came and the hollandaise was technicolor orange because that is the only thing my friend ever orders for breakfast and is a connoisseur. However, they seemed totally satisfied with them so my fears were unfounded. The food is simple = but good. I don't know what they put in the pancakes but they were MAGICAL. I could not stop raving about them. If it was a mix they must have been laughing at me in the back :D Some of the best pancakes I have ever had. The waitress was EXACTLY what I hope for at a diner. If you know, you know, honey. Please never change Route 99!

I finally made my way to Highlevel Diner on 109 St in Edmonton…read more The restaurant is very nice and cozy, and very welcoming. I ordered a chicken fajitas plate and it was very tasty - the fajitas were filled with seasoned chicken, onions and green peppers. Brown rice and refried beans were the sides, along with salsa and sour cream. The menu is diverse, and I wanted to sample a good number of the dishes !! The drinks menu was honestly nice and long. Service was good and quick, and the staff was welcoming and polite. A very nice place to go to as a regular, or when you are on a date!!

My friend had the Chicken green curry. Both dishes were fresh, flavourful, and generous. My chicken was cooked really well, and the spinach pie was rich and garlicy. My pita bread though was dry. By time I brought my dish home, the pita was dried out. My friend was also happy with her selection. Our server was friendly and prompt. A great stanbye place.

I loved it. Super fun. Our server was helpful and friendly. Although a little ditsy. Forgot our order after we made it. Forgot our drinks. But nice and super apologetic. We were there for breakfast, so we decided both on the steak and eggs. We both asked for the steak to be done medium rare. My hubby asked for eggs scrambled while I asked for them to be sunny side up. Food came out slowly which was odd because besides us there was only one other couple dining (The weather was nasty outside). Food was tasty. Our steaks were cooked to our liking, and the seasoning was great. My eggs were cooked well. They were probably the most beautiful eggs I have seen for awhile. The home made hashbrowns were fine, but not as good as other places I have been to. I expected better. All in all it was a good experience. The atmosphere was lovely. The food was good and reasonably priced. And our server was nice. Check it out.

We would go back in a heartbeat, just need to sleep off the food coma for a while. It's bright and airy in spite of the smallish space and the amount of booths and tables, oh and you can sit at the counter. The walls and ceiling are covered in memorabilia, concert banners and what not. The place was absolutely hopping at 12:45 PM, but we were sat in a booth right away. Waters dropped moments later, asked if we needed coffee, tea or whatever else you wanted to drink. Our server was fantastic, explaining and educating us as we were first timers. The food came out piping hot very quickly and our tea ordered after the food was dropped came in a large teapot and hot just like at home. The clubhouse, which I did not have, has house made ham and turkey according to our server. My corn beef had slices of corn beef that did not taste house made, but the sheer volume of meat I couldn't finish, the eggs were cooked perfectly. K's Mexicasa omelette was excellent with the Mexican meat the star. I know why the place is consistently full, it's that good. Definite redo when back in West Edmonton

The corned beef has had mashed potatoes which is different from what I'm used to but it was tasty nonetheless. My husband substituted the pancakes in his meal for pan fried potatoes.

The servers were friendly and fast which was perfect for us as I needed to get to an appointment. It's a relatively small restaurant with many patrons. It's definitely got that old diner vibe which is always fun once in a while. If you're looking for a solid, traditional diner experience, you can't for wrong with Rockin' Robyn's.

We are regular, loyal customers, which made this experience even more disappointing. When we contacted the restaurant, the management showed no concern and took no responsibility for the quality of the food. Instead of offering to replace the pizza--even though we live just two blocks away--they insisted we deal with Skip for a refund. When I explained that we would no longer be ordering or having dinner because of this, they still refused to help and continued to push the issue back onto Skip. The lack of accountability and customer care was extremely frustrating. This situation could have been easily resolved by simply sending out a fresh pizza, but instead, we were left feeling ignored and undervalued as customers.

It's definitely not the ritz, but the food is honest and delicious.
