    Good food but not as good as I was expecting considering the type of restaurant it looks to be…read more Most of the main dishes had large servings as you get to pick your sides out of a decent list of things. The prices were fairly reasonable, some things better than others, the main steak dishes seemed a little out there but the rest was on point. Atmosphere was appealing, the bar was nice, fair selection.

    One of the few consistent and reliable restaurants in Fort St John. Nothing stellar or mind…read moreblowing, but nothing that lets down. Service: Consistent. Nothing particularly memorable in either direction. Occasionally, particularly on Fridays, there can be a bit of a wait for a table. Unfortunately, the seating area for those waiting is quite small. They will however take your number and offer to text you when your table is ready. Food is good. I have never been disappointed except for the occasional time where a small mistake may have been made in the kitchen. Fortunately, it is always rectified promptly and properly. If you like burgers, I recommend the Kona. Atmosphere. Probably one of my favourite atmospheres for dining in Fort St John. The music is great, not too loud, and the decor and lighting is great. Bathrooms are a bit small, but it adds to the charm for me personally. Probably because I've spent a lot of time in the city. Overall, if you're looking for consistency across all levels, I would recommend Original Joe's.

    Aye Carumba. This place is expensive. $33 for a chicken dinner? This is not Michelin 5 star dining…read more The food is average. Not terrible, but not worth the high prices. Service is fine. Not what you'd expect for the money, but fine for what you expect for the place. Decor is well-large room with tables and TVs. Nothing wrong with that, but $33 for chicken dinner? The beef dip is only OK. It is a bit small, and bread a bit dry and the Au jus watery and overly salted, but hey, I've had worse - not for $18. But I've had worse at $12. It was hard to get over the shock of seeing the menu prices. These prices would be fine at a Fairmont Hotel, with the accompanying food quality, atmosphere, and service. At a Super 8 Hotel, they seem way out of line.

    Great place! We arrived around 4:00 as we heard the place gets busy. Worked out great because we…read morewere there for happy hour and happy hour included appetizers. Every night they have a special. Everyone order the Thursday special, which was a 5oz steak w/mushrooms, salad and fries. No one complained. Okay, so my husband said, "it was so good he could have eaten more." I ordered the Coconut Curry (something like that) with prawns. Not spicy at all (which can be a concern for me when curry is involved)and so fresh. I had leftovers which my husband ate about an hour later. He agreed, it was very good. I also had an ice cold bud light. Wait staff is great. We will be back. I want to try the lettuce wraps.

    Overheard conversation between three twenty-something guys at Casey's Sunday morning…read more Guy 1: Dude, you have to try this Caesar!!! Guy 2: You know clam juice makes me puke and vodka makes me crazy!!! Guy3: Dude, all we're asking is you try one!! Guy 2: One leads to two. Two leads to three and after three you're not going to like me anymore!!! Brings back fond memories of lost weekends and sound advice not followed all courtesy of Casey's. The pub hasn't aged a lot since it's opening. In fact the usual suspects can be found any given weekend, filling the same seats they've occupied since the late eighties. Some things have changed, the awesome HO scale train that raced by on tracks overhead is gone. Some things have stayed the same, the wait staff is still friendly and funny and not afraid to stop and chat with the patrons. My server, a local, born and raised here, relished the fact most of her clientele went to school with her parents and some of her former school mates who frequent the pub haven't aged that well. She recommended a sleeve of Belgian moon draft with brunch. A smooth beer, heavy on citrus, which I probably would avoid except at breakfast where it makes perfect sense. I tried the avocado toast. A soft poached egg on brioche with tomato and mashed avocado. It really lacked any kind of flavor or texture, as did the fruit plate that accompanied it. However food and drink is reasonably priced here and I do enjoy the free conversation.

    Ok so I respect that Steve had a bad experience, but my experience was much better. There were…read morepeople sitting outside and a group sitting inside. I opted for the latter bc it was too windy. I got a flight of beers and the bartender was professional and friendly. She said she's a teacher and that she has to bartend to make ends meet. Naw I'm kidding about the last part of that sentence. But she's a teacher. The beers were pretty solid as I recall. At one point, she had to go change a keg, and so when an outside customer came in, I felt compelled to say "she went in the back to change a keg." We can't leave our customers in the dark now can we? When I was ready to leave, two local yahoos came in and started sampling all the beers. It was some real insight to me as to what makes a real Canadian. I'd have preferred if bartender/schoolmarm had asked me if I wanted to close out, but i got to witness two good ole boys in action for a solid 5-10 minutes as they sampled beer and finally ordered (and received) two growlers of FSJ's finest.

    Called ahead. Recorded message thanked me for calling, then said goodbye. I took a chance, walking…read more1.7 miles from where I was staying. Door was open. About a dozen people. Bartender said it was a private party and, despite nobody sitting at bar, was told to leave. No exceptions. I owned a brewery. I understand private party revenue. But I would have figured something out to keep every customer happy. At a minimum I would have had the phone message and social media updated to say the night was private.
