My pizza loving daughter did not love the balsamic drizzle on her neo-margherita but enjoyed the overall taste of the pizza. I personally found the pizza to be too heavy for my liking, but that's because my preference is for Neapolitan style pizza vs the heavily topped Roman style pizzas. Not sure if I would come back here for my pizza cravings.

The girl at the counter let us know that the social media favorites were Dolce Inferno & Truffle Mushroom. The pricing is based on a big slice/half a sheet/full sheet of pizza. I got mine to go but I would highly recommend enjoying your fresh slice there to enjoy the crunch of the crust and freshness of the slice.

I ordered the hibachi beef short ribs after asking the cashier what their most popular dishes were. The short ribs were very tasty and came with some sauces on the side.

The food is still deliciously good and the chef/owner, John, is still a great guy and a great chef. Although prices have crept up due to inflation, the meals are still very reasonably priced and the portions are still generous. On this visit, I had the Hibachi Angus Steak, one of my favourite dishes. The tender steak is grilled on the flat top with onions, mushrooms, and broccoli, and served over rice. Simple, delicious, and priced right at only $12.99! Give them a try!

Family owned and run pub in the heart of Pickering Village. This place looks like a small house,…read moreand you will definitely feel at home when you walk in. Lots of regulars here - it's a true neighborhood pub. If you frequent this place, the owners will remember your name, and what you like to drink and eat. The patio/deck has been renovated for Covid restrictions and is good, even in the colder weather. It's covered, heated and quite comfortable. In the summer, it's a great place to enjoy a beverage and get some sun, or hide under an umbrella. The menu is not expansive, but has surprising variety and includes such items as calamari, edamame, antojitos along with sandwiches, wings, burgers etc. All the food is super fresh and very high quality - burgers are fresh, never frozen, Cuban sandwich is hearty, and the club is just delicious on the brioche bun! They even have a Vegan burger on a Vegan bun. Oh, and drinks. The Guinness is always fresh since they serve to much! Last summer, they got the Bees Knees drinks (it's a Killer Bee with an extra shot!!). Your glass will not go empty with the fast service! Highly recommended. We will be back there are soon as the restaurants re-open!

We've been here a couple of times now; once for a takeaway and once to eat in. As far as I know,…read morethis is the only place in Pickering that has Poké bowls so that's what I come here for. I'm not going to lie, I'm confused by the decor. It's like a mix between a sports bar and a sushi place. I think it's the big heavy oak wood bar that dominates the restaurant combined with the typical uncomfortable bench seats... but yet there's some proper tables and chairs. It just throws me off a bit. No matter, the food is good. Their salmon poké bowl is delicious. The description is that it includes, Sushi Rice with Salmon, Avocado, Kani, Cucumber, Tobiko, Wakame, Green Bean, Corn, Mango, Mayo. I asked for a side of spicy mayo and it really kicked it up a notch. Next time I'll ask them to make it with spicy mayo instead. I'm pretty sure it had pineapple instead for mango though and honestly, it brightens up the dish. The guys running the place are really nice and the service is great. Super friendly and really welcoming. Everything that was being served to the other tables looked fantastic. I really do need to start trying other items on their menu. 3.5 for now. :)

Captain's Boil, the formulaic chain would be the floor and the one I really enjoyed, Lobster Boil Seafood House, in North York would be the ceiling. What I'm about to say about Sea Salt would definitely leave their management a bit "salty". Unequivocally, Sea Salt sits in the deep basement of the pecking order. Sea Salt's standing was easily determined after my first spoonful of the seafood broil. The sauce was their downfall as they went overboard with the of garlic and not to mention they burnt the garlic. As the Cajun sauce is the soul of a seafood boil, their sauce literally ruined the entire dish and experience. The combo we ordered came with fried calamari and shrimp and fries. The fried calamari and shrimp lacked a bit of "salt", which is rather ironic considering the restaurant's name and neither of the sauce complimented (sweet chilli and ranch) the calamari well. The fries were what you expected it to be. But a little bit too much sauce. The one thing that I liked was you could choose to have the Turkish Salaam Cola as part of your combo drink choice. I didn't think it was all that different from regular cola, but it was nice to try. Service is quite slow here and not super attentive. We had to flag them down various times to get things that should have been provided. We weren't given enough plates to start and we had to request for bibs and disposable gloves. These are pretty standard things at other boil places. In general, the appetizers were better than the seafood boil. The portion of the combo was pretty good so we packed some of it to go. But to put things into perspective, the following day I reheated the food for lunch, and my two kids didn't even touch it (with one of them who had experienced Lobster Boil Seafood house). That tells you something!

I've had this place saved for the longest time and was waiting until I'm in the area to dine here…read more Finally made it and I'm so glad I tried it. First off, women-owned café? You go girls I love it. Came here for dinner and had a hard time choosing what to order as there are so many good options on the menu. Really wanted the calamari & shrimp appetizer but opted in for the shrimp bucket and the fish and chips. I also got a coconut mango drink which was super refreshing and delicious. I thought the fish tacos had a kick of spice added but they were still good. The fries were crispy, which I loved but the highlight for me has to be the shrimp. I loveeeeed the sea salt sauce. Though I usually don't like corn, I loved this one and enjoyed the meal. Would come back here for more for sure!

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!

They offer vegetarian options, meat options, simple salads, a variety of fruits and ice cream for dessert. Fresh naan is also included, brought to your table. I had a little from each station and it was all good! Everything was very flavourful but my favourites would have to be the Mutton Curry, Butter Chicken, Tandoori Chicken, Chickpeas, and the Naan. The vegetarian options were very good but I'm more of a carnivore. It would have been nice to have a bigger selection of salad items. I'll be back!

On my quest to try new restaurants this year, Butt Karahi was definitely on my list…read more The restaurant itself is really nice inside with a variety of seating options. Regular tables, comfy casual chairs or hightop benches in little alcoves. There are TV's everywhere so I imagine this place is quite active during game nights and other events. We came early evening during Ramadan so I'm sure it was the calm before the storm (so-to-speak). We were greeted at the door and offered anywhere we wanted to sit in the restaurant. They don't have paper menus so you'll have to either scan a QR code or go to their website to look at the menu. Our server walked us through some of the dishes and explained how some of the dishes were presented. We opted for the rice dish, Yakhni Pulao and garlic naan with butter. The dish was big enough to share between two to three people and I would have only needed to order one naan as they're quite large. The veal was so tender and delicious and the rice was extremely flavourful. The dish over all had the slightest amount of heat. Nothing overwhelming, just a nice slight warmth. If you don't like spice, I'm sure it's something they could leave out. The naan was incredibly delicious and I would definitely order the garlic one again. I was really impressed with restaurant. From the staff to the layout to the food, everything was excellent and I left (before the rush that was sure to come after sundown), with a very happy belly! I will definitely be back.

Despite their name, there is nothing ass about this restaurant - definitely recommend!
