    Nacho Chips
    Jennyfer A.

    I kind of like this cool big little restaurant. It's not too big and it's not too compacted. The waitresses are pretty and nice. I appreciate the small talk that is exchanged. Polite conversations cheers up my mood. I would give this place a 5 star rating but I found the nachos I ordered the first time a bit pricey for what was given to me. I asked for no meat on the nachos and that was respected but no added substitution was offered unless I wanted to pay for it. I would have probably added guacamole to the chips. Other than this the nachos were relishing. The second time I visited this place I chose to eat the Ahi Tuna Poke Rice Bowl and it was nectarous-appetizing! The way Poke Bowls always are. The avocado and the seafood chunks coupled with the crispy Korean tofu on top of the rice, it all nourished me well.

    Food was great mmmmmmmmm, so was service. Rappy, they like basketball here! Busy place

    Nashville hot chicken sandwich

    OMG I came for chicken fest week to try out their chicken burger... It was spicy, and soooo delicious! It is a sports bar so not a typical haunt for me, however I will be back for another one of these mouthfuls of scrumptiousness!!!!!

    It was late night and we ordered a cocktail and a drink mixed with vodka. The bartender immediately served them infront of us however, we saw a small insect inside the cocktail drink so we immediately returned it and he even replaced it with a new one. The worse thing he did was he just served the drink with an insect in it to the other customer who ordered the same drink. We were so disappointed coz he wasn't even bothered nor ashamed that he did it just infront of us while we are looking... Aside from that, we've also ordered a food. We politely asked the staff (too bad we didn't know her name) to take up our order. After that we waited and noticed that it's taking so long. It's been almost 20mins so we made a follow up to the server. We have been observing the kitchen and we learned that she actually didn't queue up our order at first. We understand that the place was so busy but there were lots of staff there too. She was unapologetic for delaying it, so we ended up unhappy eating our food when it was served (after 5mins). Good thing is that their fries and burger tasted good. It was our first time to be there and sad to say that we definitely never gonna come back again because of the service.

    What an amazing experience!! The staff really went above and beyond for us. From the moment we walked through the door Mckenna welcomed us with a warm smile and took care of us like regulars, her and Jaden's recommendations were spot on! I had never had a Beermosa before and am a fan! The classic burger was next level, the Sous Chef Clint even brought it out to us once it was ready! I will forever recommend Local to everyone and be back often. Your friendly neighborhood flight attendant travelling the world through his stomach! Tony.

    Little too much red spice sauce for me (I shoulda asked for less) but other then that I really enjoyed it

    Drink menu

    Great friendly atmosphere. Server was Anika A. Such a sweet heart. All staff supported eachother. Had the pleasure of sitting by the open kitchen. There was something funny ... loved the laughs. ... oh... the food ... amazing. Curry chicken bowl was brilliant. Friend had a blackened chicken burger. Very good. Fries are basic but good.

    Nachos!

    I saw this Burger King (BK) next door to Chapters. There's BK, Chung Chun Rice Dogs, and Khab…read moreTapioca all in a row. All three businesses are new to me. They are sitting where it used to be vast parking spots for Chapters. I suppose that these spots are no longer needed. Yesterday, I visited Chapters and the Plaza at Polo Park with Winners, HomeSense, and Urban Behavior. All four stores do not have public washrooms. Bummer. I left the hotel at 10:45 am. It was now close to 3 pm. My bladder needed attention. I also felt like a strawberry sundae. I ventured into this BK. It was bright and clean inside the eatery. The washrooms were off to the right. There were a couple of single stalls. Perfect! The one that I used was clean. You need to press the large square button to lock the door. When you are ready to exit, you turn the handle to exit. I looked at the menu. I saw milkshakes. I didn't see sundaes listed. I got a helpful young woman at the counter. I asked if she had any sundaes. She did. She listed all the flavours. I went with strawberry, which is my favourite. I tapped my debit card to pay. Done! She went ahead and made me my sundae. She handed it to me, along with a napkin and wooden spoon. I thanked her and headed to my rental car to enjoy it. It was -21°C outside. I felt like a sundae. Some habits don't change over the years. The strawberry sundae hit the spot. I got the perfect combination of strawberry chunks and sauce with the vanilla soft serve. I was happy. I am thankful that this place had a washroom and my strawberry sundae. I'd return again when I'm in the area. (488)

I noticed this recently and the fries with chilli my wife and my favourite in the city are greasy as hell now. Also the guy at the front is rude and condescending typical spoiled brat vibe and they do not serve in order she waited and my wife has heart issues so standing their waiting for our order. I can not stand long because of a disability so she went in and immediately mention the counter guys attitude which surprised me as my wife is a super bubbly friendly person who treats everyone around her with respect she avoids confrontation at any cost so i was not happy when i heard and saw how shaken she was!!!! She watched everyone get their food ahead of her and she ordered before all of them plus gave them a 15 percent tip when she paid. We will not be going back again after going their for over 60 years this was our last visit. Ever since the old Italian guys sold it it has gone down hill ! Between the attitude of the server who acts like he is doing you a favour by serving you i mean i noticed it once before i went by myself and was not busy they really need to move him to the back or i am worried someone might clean his clock his attitude screams please punch my face type of guy. The hot dogs now seem to be of a much lower quality then before. They must have changed their supplier before they snapped when you bit into them like European style hot dogs like before when they were served everywhere when Winnipeg was a much more European type of place with a European influenced culture being the most dominant. Now they taste like maple leaf crap that's the reason so many people loved them because not as many places had that style of hot dog anymore and the once incredible fry and chilli is becoming a gross greasy mess!! I do not mind a little grease but when its a 1 inch soup at the bottom of a plastic container soaking through the bag its in that's when i have a issue with it this and many other things including the high prices. This was always a blue collar place a place where a working man could afford to take his family on a Saturday drive for ice cream and burgers and still have some change left in his pockets. Many still go they are always busy some of this i believe is based on nostalgia but if things do not change they will start to lose business. I hope they read this and take it as constructive criticism coming from a long long time customer who supports local businesses religiously who has been going like i said to this place since 1965!! Please make the changes because its a Winnipeg institution one i hope goes on forever as Winnipeg has lost so many great family restaurants over the last 15-20 years so many really great places that served great Canadian and British food like great prime rib and Yorkshire pudding at The Beefeater a typical Canadian Sunday dinner when i grew up here Alycia's C Kelekis the Paladin so many great Ukraine and Italian where as now its all East Indian and Chinese stuff!!! Your chilli is still good but is missing something that it had before plus we could do without the the excessive grease soup at the bottom never had that issue with the former owners that just shows lack of caring about what your serving the paying customer and the burgers are still good and so are the plain Frys but they used to be great and they can be again sometimes success ruins something special and i see it coming with this place. Please go back to the old hot dog supplier or deep fry them for a second or two like you used to the old Italian guys knew best and make sure to drain excessive grease off customers fry and chilli and please get someone taking payments who can deal with the public that is a nice personable likable person not someone with a smarmy passive aggressive attitude . Hire someone who enjoys this type of interaction with the public not some rude angry guy with a chip on his shoulder . I understand that it can be difficult at times people can be jerks but if you treat nice people like that even in a passive aggressive manner smart people can feel it and recognize it and that is enough to lose them as customers. Dairy Whip deservers someone who can handle it professionally and its loyal customers should be treated with respect many have been customers since it opened in the late 50s!!!!! Without them you can not operate a profitable business. My father in-law who is not a fussy eater complained last year when we took him here as he lives out of town and wanted to try his teenage favorite place he was so disappointed and it was out of character for him as he will eat almost anything and be grateful for it!!! At the time i just shrugged it off but i finally had to call it out .I hate to have to write this review but in doing so i hope it will help Dairy Whip get back on track as one of the best drive inns in Winnipeg again!!!

    Tip: There are daily deals. If you drop by on a Monday, it's happy hour all day long…read more For the longest time, I avoided visiting this Leopold's Tavern in Osborne Village. It was Papa George's for the longest time. I spent a lot of time here, mainly because I lived in this neighbourhood and worked rotating shift work for half my time in Winnipeg. Papa George's was open until 4 am most nights. I am nostalgic. I also am curious. A couple of Mondays ago, I decided to visit my old neighbourhood and check Leopold's Tavern out. I parked across the street in the parking lot near the Liquor Mart store. You have two hours of free parking there. I don't know if anyone was truly clocking time, as it was raining. I walked into the eatery. It looked so different. A female staffer at the bar said to seat myself anywhere that I'd like. I plopped myself at a table with a good view of the Germany vs Paraguay game in FIFA play. I like that you get memorabilia everywhere in this establishment. The Winnipeg Jets 1.0. A bunch of records with record labels such as Polydor. Various world tours from Styx to Eurythmics. I loved everything about it. My server was excellent. He was attentive and helpful. I got a Coke Zero to start. This place didn't have Diet Coke, so I took the next best sugar-free option. It was cold and perfect. Refills were prompt, which I appreciated. I came here on a Monday. It was happy hour all day. Yay! This place has daily specials. I got a scotch egg that was $6 for happy hour. I saved $3. My server asked if I wanted my scotch egg with chipotle mayo, or zesty mustard, or both. I went with chipotle mayo. The egg came out first. It had panko on the outside. The sausage was so good around the soft-boiled egg. I loved this starter so much. I'd get it again in a heartbeat. I got the braised beef dip as my main. It came with a side. I opted for cabbage roll soup. This meal was outstanding. The braised beef was tender. It melted in my mouth with little chewing effort. This sandwich had swiss cheese, mushrooms, caramelized onion, and horseradish mayo. A toasted ciabatta bun held everything together. I dipped it in au jus. It was so flavourful and perfect. I loved my cabbage roll soup. It tasted like a deconstructed cabbage roll in a lovely broth. It was comforting and yummy. For dessert, I got creamsicle churros. I love creamsicles. I love churros. This combination could not be bad. The orange and vanilla sauces on top of crispy churro bites were amazing. It came with whipped cream. I had a bit of it, but wasn't necessary. The sauces worked their own magic. I paid with a credit card. I tipped. I tapped. I was done! The washrooms are in the same spots, but look different. The women's washroom was clean. No issues. This eatery is open till 2 am. It's still decent if you're working rotating shifts, or like a late night bite after a concert or sporting event. I'm glad I dropped by. I had a wonderful time reliving old memories of a past eatery and making new ones by having yummy, creative, good eats. I'll be back to try more items off the menu. (289)
