Came here to watch the Canada game. Ambiance was fine. It's what you get with a standard pub. I…read morearrived early and sat at the bar so the bartender was attentive early on. I got my drink early and was given a food menu and I only took about 3 mins to look at it when I knew what to get. There was only one bartender and she was hustling. Not gonna lie, I was a bit concerned there was only one bartender for the entire bar on a Canada world cup game day. She was so busy she didn't have a chance to take my order. I asked another server to order but she told me the bartender will help me. It took over and hour before I got the bartenders attention and managed to order. I got the honey stinger wings. They were fresh and good, although not spicy as it says. When I wanted another drink I found it so difficult to get the bartenders attention. She was SO BUSY. She was pouring drinks for literally every single person in the restaurant. She had no help. I felt bad for her but I also wanted to be enjoying the game. I felt like some of the drinks the other servers could've probably poured themselves, like the bottled beers or pour their own tap so the bartender could manager her own customers. Regardless, we still had a good time, I had a good seat, wings were good, and the bartender worked her ASS OFF. They need to staff more especially during times like these when you know every single person in this packed location will be getting at LEAST one drink.

We came here for lunch and we were the only people in there. There were a couple of Skip/Uber Eat…read morepickups. We got the Galbi Q chicken and Prawn pasta gratin. The Galbi chicken was so tender, it almost felt like it would melt in our mouth. The sauce was sweet and smoky, it kind of reminded us of chipotle style. We would recommend this. The pasta was flavorful, had a good amount of shrimp and creamy. If we're in the neighborhood, we will come back.

11:15 am on a tuesday and it wasn't too busy, making it an easy place to settle in and enjoy a meal…read morewithout competing with the noise around you. the dining room has a warm, lived in feel with dark blue walls, exposed wood beams, tufted red banquettes, vintage style posters, and an open kitchen where you can catch a glimpse of the cooks at work. it's comfortable rather than polished, with a mix of families, retirees, and locals stopping in for lunch. the ceiling fans lazily spin overhead while the tv quietly plays in the background, adding to the relaxed neighbourhood vibe. x-site grill & bistro isn't trying to be trendy, and that's part of its charm. if you're looking for good food, generous portions, and prices that don't make you do a double take, this place is worth a visit. we shared the grilled chicken pesto sandwich ($14.95), served open faced on french bread with homemade pesto and melted mozzarella. the chicken was tender, the pesto tasted fresh, and the toasted bread held up well without becoming too crunchy. it came with a fresh side of garden salad and a few potatoes topped with sour cream, which rounded out the meal nicely. even split between two people, it was enough to satisfy. the lunch specials are where the value really shines. starting at just $8.95, there are plenty of choices, including chicken souvlaki, although you'll need to order a beverage to get the special. even with that requirement, it's hard to find a better deal these days. there are also daily drink specials if you're stopping by later in the day. no flashy gimmicks, no over the top presentation, just honest comfort food, friendly service, and the kind of neighbourhood restaurant that reminds you why independent diners are still worth seeking out. sometimes simple done well is exactly what you're craving.

Popped up this restaurant that has been around for 6 months in the Surrey- White Rock area!…read more Their wings were quite good! I love the crunch and texture they have. We ordered a 15 wing combo and got a mix of dry and wet sauced wings. They have a variety of flavors to choose from, even some that are extremely spicy!! It's in the same style as a fast food restaurant. You order at the till and they call you to pick up your order from the front. The owner was very pleasant and as soon as we walked in, he gave us an introduction to his resto and helped us with some recommendations. I did find the wings to be a bit on the pricey side- but that's the inflation for you. But I would definitely come back to give them another go!

While parking can be tricky, especially for the street just make sure you park where you're allowed to park Otherwise, the service was fantastic. Venice was our server and she was super nice. We have three different options/tiers you can pick. But we always pick the gold tier. Two hours is the amount of time you get and it goes by fast. We basically had three rounds of ordering. Start with the bbq meat and then move on to the soup. There's also lots of side dishes for you to explore .
