You can also help yourself to cardamom coffee which was fantastic too. I ordered a chicken shawarma plate - it came with two choices of rice (mild or spicy), garlic potatoes, garlic sauce, hummus and a salad (many options - including chickpea salad, pasta salad, garden salad, spring mix etc) It was frequented by locals and many of them were in the first name basis with the owner/staff which goes a long way to say that they take care of their customers well. They are also Reader's choice awards - Diamond winner in 2022. Please do visit them if/when you're craving shawarma in St Catherine.

We were told the patio was first come, first serve. We were able to secure a spot right by the water which was amazing!! They had a great selection of wine & cocktails. We ordered the mushroom flatbread to share and it was delish. I was a little adventurous and opted for the mac & cheese with shrimp but the mac = gnocchi. It was delicious and very rich. At the end, we were too full so we took dessert to go. Overall, I was very satisfied with my dining experience here. I would definitely return!!

If you enjoy condiments the semolina crusted calamari ($26) comes with four dipping sauces:…read moresweet-curried aioli, sweet chili, basil pesto aioli, and sriracha aioli. It would've been nice if at least one packed a bit of heat, but they're all tame, adding flavour without overpowering the squid. Thankfully, the semolina crust was excellent - crunchy, light, and not oily at all. The portion is generous and easily shareable between two or three people. A newer addition to the menu is the short rib sandwich ($34), and it's a good one. Large chunks of tender, flavourful beef are topped with sautéed mushrooms, crispy onions, arugula, and brie. The cheese adds a creamy richness that makes the sandwich stand out. The menu notes a horseradish aioli, but any zing from it gets buried under the slightly sweet braising sauce, which was too sugary for my taste. I would've preferred it kept more savoury. The sandwich is already quite saucy, and yet more sauce arrives on the side. Good for fries if you choose to switch the salad to spuds. After hearing plenty about the Great Canadian Burger ($29), I couldn't resist splitting one, though I ultimately wish I hadn't. The short rib sandwich is better. The burger is hefty, with a thick beef patty that's overly dense and heavily mixed, giving it more of a frozen-patty texture than the crumbly tenderness of a good homemade one. The potato bun also struggled to hold up against the avalanche of toppings: grilled peameal bacon, cheddar, onion, tomato, arugula, pickle, and two sauces. I'm not sure why the kitchen insists on sweetening everything - the burger comes with caramelized onion bacon jam and a maple chipotle aioli, both quite sugary. If you enjoy sweeter savoury dishes, you'll probably like it. Otherwise, I'd skip the handhelds. On our weekday lunch visit, the restaurant was well staffed and attentive. Even though we never felt rushed, we were in and out within about an hour. If anything, the service bordered on overly attentive... during that hour we were interrupted six times by four different people checking if everything was okay. My suggestion: let the primary server handle most of the check-ins, and only have others step in if things get busy.

Most of their business is take out although there is room for maybe four people to sit at two counters. The owner was super friendly and accommodating. I asked him to make me a vegetarian plate of mixed salads and falafel while I moved my car. (The lot behind the restaurant doesn't belong to them and you'll get towed!) The pita, humus, babaganoush, papas bravos, and pickled turnips were very good. The standouts: 1. the lightest, airiest falafel I've ever had. If I knew felafel could be this good, I'd order it more often. 2. Rice with cardamum pods. Why have I never had cardmum in rice before? I've eaten at literally dozens of Middle Eastern restaurants, and this was a first. It was a new taste and absolutely raised the bar on the rice. Finally It's about Thyme was a bargain. I think I paid C$15 for an overflowing plate of food plus a bottle of water. The portion was so generous that I took it home and ate the leftovers for lunch the following day. And here's a lagniappe: the restaurant is across the street from the Salem Chapel British Methodist Episcopal Church where Harriet Tubman was a member. St. Catherarines, Ontario was one of the end points for the Underground Railroad.

There was a large variety of food options. The only bad dish was the Vegan Pizza which looked horrible! They were kind enough to listen to the customer and remake it to her specifications. Entree prices ranged $14 to $23 to $29. The restaurant is well-decorated . They seem to like European family motorcycles. The manager was very friendly, helpful, and cooperative.

She answered our questions and gave us enough time to check the menu out. I went with a basic breakfast and my husband ordered a skillet. I asked for a Coke, and was surprised it was a can for $2.50. That seemed excessive. Our orders came out quickly, though we passed the short wait by reading the Coffee News at the table. Refills on decaf weren't hard to come by. I don't even care about the rest of my breakfast, because I was all over that bacon. It was sweet, salty, cooked perfectly... I'll be dreaming of it for years to come. Jacob enjoyed his hollandaise skillet, but wish he'd gotten bacon instead of peameal pork because mine was so much better. They have unisex bathrooms. Accept credit card. They also have an outdoor patio area, but it was much too cold for us to enjoy in February. I'd visit this charming diner in the future!
