There were already people in the bar and dining area drinking and eating with plenty of empty tables so this seemed strange to us. As my husband and I were exchanging baffled looks, the waitress tells us that we can't be seated. Again. Really?! No reason was given other than a BLANK stare from this ridiculous person. My guess is, since it was a Leafs game night, they wanted drinking crowds who would tip them more. I guess à family with a kid was not the customer profile they wanted to entertain that night. So we left and went to the nearby Bullocks Pub just down the street and were greeted warmly and seated. We had a great pub fare with a few cold ones and watched the Leafs game with our daughter. Thanks, shoeless Joes. If it weren't for your rudeness, we would have never walked into Bullocks which is where we would rather hang out and watch the game from now on. You just lost a customer for life.

Our evening on their spacious patio started with some refreshing cocktails - Tequila Sunrise, Grand Thai Tea, and Sparkling Mango Mint. They looked good and tasted great! We ordered the Sharing Platter to start, while we decided on the rest of our meal. It included chicken tenders, onion rings, garlic cheese fingers, pickle spears, carrot and celery sticks, and assorted dips. It was all good! For our main courses, we got a bit carried away. Everything on the menu looked really good and it was hard to choose so we ended up with Fish Tacos, Triple Decker Club Sandwich, Chicken Cobb Salad, Buffalo Chicken Pizza, Fajitas, and the Kids' Burger. Everything tasted great, with the fish tacos, cobb salad, and fajitas being our favourites. If we weren't so stuffed, we would have tried their desserts. Next time. With good food and good service, we'll definitely return!

Visited Gabby's for the first time. The food (sweet chili thai chicken wings, hot honey garlic and…read morehot chicken tenders, fries and sweet potato fries) was all very good. The beer that was served to my friends seemed to be fine but my diet coke was flat unfortunately. We had a trainee server which might have contributed to our bills being completely messed up but we just paid them anyway...no biggie. I thought it was odd that we didn't receive an actual bill. However, we could see what we were paying for on the payment terminal if we asked. They missed an opportunity to share a QR code or ask customers to submit a review...but I'm submitting a review anyway.

We had their Chuck's Burger with Fries, and their Rustic Penne. Both were a tremendous value and tasted really good! We also had their Honey Sriracha Sizzler, Rib and Wing Combo with Mashed Potato, and Top Sirloin Steak with Lobster Tail and Sweet Potato Fries. We added their Onion Rings and Sautéed Mushrooms. Everything was perfectly cooked and tasted great! As usual, we ordered more than we could finish, and the portions were quite generous, resulting in leftovers. Appetizers are half price after 9pm every day! That's a deal! They've also got really good deals on drinks, with beer on tap starting at only $3.25 (12oz) and cocktails and shots starting at $6.49 and $4.99, respectively. Drink responsibly! With locations all over Ontario, check out a Chuck's Roadhouse near you!

This was my VERY FIRST time visiting a Chuck's location; They did not disappoint…read more I love the interior and the personalized Pickering motorcycle. Lots of tvs inside and they have a nice outdoor patio as well. There are so many positives to mention: The Lunch Express Menu is from 11am-5pm (15 Minutes or it's FREE) so you know service is timely! They also have $4 beers on game days (Thursday and Saturday) Plus Appetizer Specials in the Evening! We tried the Bourbon Glazed Chicken Sandwich and the Rustic Penne off the lunch menu; Both were presented beautifully We also ordered from the main menu: Top Sirloin and Lobster Tail Sauteed Mushrooms Onion Rings Sweet Potato Fries Honey Siracha Sizzler Rib and Wing Combo With Mash Hot Honey and Ghost Pepper Canadian Budweiser and Bud Light Caesar (Chuck's Size) I can't believe how cheap steak and beers are here; while maintaining quality. This is a definite game day Spot and I'll be back to enjoy more food and drinks with my friends.

This was our most recent visit to St Louis bar & grill. We were looking for a good happy hour deal…read moreand saw the $4 appies and drinks. We ordered Angus burger with fries $12.99 and Chicken lettuce wraps $11.99. The burger was thick and juicy. Great tasting burger with nice grilled taste. The fries portion was too small. Perhaps cost cutting since it was in the happ hour menu. The chicken lettuce wraps were top notch excellent flavor profile. I can taste the hoisin sauce and mixture of fried onion rings, peppers, and onions. Great dish, only wish they gave more lettuce. The beers are cheap here however when the server offerred us an upgrade to Devil sized draughts for $1 we were sold on it. Unfortunately, when the bill came we were charged $6.99 per 24oz pint instead of $5. My wife didn't want to complain and paid the bill. This left a bad taste in our mouth no pun intended. Please do not mislead customers on drink upgrades or ensure the accuracy of the order. Overall, the happy hour menu is decent. We will try the $4 sliders, cheesy honey buns, and pickle coins next time. Beware of food and beverage upgrades and check your bill before paying. I hope the service and food portions improve next time. It will be a while before I come back!This was our most recent visit to St Louis bar & grill.

Your first order is 6 wings after that you get 4 and it's annoying waiting between orders. It's what you expect from a Bar...greasy fries, old washrooms, and a big TV over the bar.

I had seen tons of signs around the local area promoting the "all you can eat wings."…read moreI thought it was a great concept, I just never took the time to go check it out. One night the guys from work and I decided we would go for a beer & wings. $13 for the all you can eat wings, and we split a pitcher. You pick your sauce and you start with 6 wings...........then slowly......... yep........ slowly they bring you refills of 4. They make you wait. No doubt part of the strategy, I assume they hope you get full waiting. Perhaps they think it will reduce waste. During our visit we got full while waiting and two us wasted 3 of the 4 wings each. I think this is such a stupid practice. (A) I'd never suggest anyone check it out! So no good word of mouth coming from me (or anyone in my group). (B) I'd certainly not rush to go back here, not now, possibly not ever. During our visit I asked the lady if we could double our order, I let her know I'd eat over 10 wings easily. I was told, "no, other people are waiting." Like you cant drop more in the fryer ? The kicker, the place had two other tables of apx 3 people per table. So 9 people including my group. But again, this is what they make you do. Slow service hoping you get full. I guess they want your $13 and no repeat business. Bar is dated and old looking, as I would suspect. Bathrooms were AWFUL. To be fair I should add, the wings were decent in size. The sauces are just your local grocery store sauces. The wings are all cooked the same, then sauced in your pick. We tried the HOT - it was dusted with some odd spice, not good. The Bufalo wings we ok. The sweet chili reminds me of the PC sauce I buy from no frills, and the parm/garlic were decent. All in all I would not go back. The expericne does not warrant another visit. The way in which they serve the customers is just off putting.

There's an option to upgrade the souvlaki to a plate, but all that gets you is fries. It's not the best food you ever had, but if you want decent food at a good place this spot is your best friend. Wings are saucy, and well seasoned. Souvlaki wrap was actually a lot better that expected. It wasn't dry, had a nice bite, and overall flavours were on point. My only complaint would be that the pita was a bit tough, but for a delivery order it's understandable. Definitely a value spot!

The Fox Goes Free serves up some excellent pub fare, in a cosy atmosphere. For your viewing…read morepleasure, there are plenty of screens playing sports games. My previous review provides more detail. However, I want to add the the Fox continues to serve great food with friendly, helpful service. Our server, Devon, made helpful suggestions, didn't hesitate to make informed recommendations, and handled a very busy evening with confidence and good cheer. Service was excellent, as was the food! The Stuffed Yorkshire Pudding is simply the best! I also enjoyed the adorable fox photos and art throughout the pub. The Fox is a sister pub to Magwyers (in Ajax), another well-reviewed pub. While Magwyers is very popular and often full, the Fox Goes Free seems to be a bit off the beaten track, located in that West Pickering Turning Into Scarborough area. There is plenty of parking both in front and behind the pub. Set back from the street, with a spacious, heated patio in the back, it has a welcoming, almost cottage-like atmosphere. Mix that with some tasty fare and great service for the Fox's winning combination!

So much for redeeming themselves! I went here last night for dinner and had my heart set on having…read moreBangers 'n Mash only to find out that they have, yet again, removed it from their menu! Upon expressing my displeasure to our server, she advised that they now only have it occasionally as a special but that she would check with the kitchen to see if they would be able to prepare it for me (even though it was not listed as the special that evening) and they obliged. Now I'm not exactly sure what's happened over the course of time but this was the worst Bangers 'n Mash I have ever had! There was far too much gravy on the bangers, none on the mash and only a pittance of baked beans. To top it off, the bangers themselves were horrible and had no flavour at all. Apparently I will be on the search for a new favourite place for Bangers 'n Mash. Even thought the service was very good and they did agree to make the dish despite it not being on the menu that evening, I have to leave them at a 2-star for now because this dish was a disaster. So sad.
