Teena D.

Gord and I had a late lunch/early supper this afternoon at the Lower Deck. Gord started with Seafood Chowder. I'm not a fan of chowder and it smelled really fishy ... but Gord said it was delicious and he'd get it again. He also ordered plain chicken wings and said they were good and he'd get them again. Between the chowder and wings, he was really full. I ordered pan fried haddock and swapped my rice and veggies for fries. The fish was really good and I'd definitely get this again. Josh and Kelly were our servers. They were friendly and took good care of us. We went back later on ... the band Shaydid were playing and were a lot of fun!

Was wearing a Trump 2020 hat and was asked not to return. Asked why and was given no reason. Went…read moreback and told we had to finish our beer and leave, and all the time looking at my hat and not explaining why. Woke ideology is all I can think of. We are spending good money, disgustingly unappreciated. Don't go there in case someone is listening to your conversations. Go Woke. Go Broke.

This review is for the Bayers Lake location…read more 1) Lost 2 stars for poor customer service and lack of information: We walked in at 7:00 p.m. to try their Friday trivia night. (We had called to book a table for trivia and when we walked in, they said no need to reserve--it doesn't get that busy. That should have been a warning.) We sat down for our meal. By 8:30, the first round of trivia had only concluded (this is considered slow--more on that below). That's when the server came by and grumpily asked if one of the people our party was 19 or over (he's 18). When we said no, she said he had to be out of there by 9:00. She didn't think to tell us this at 7:00, knowing we were there for trivia? No signage anywhere on the premises saying "Patrons under 19 have to leave by 9:00 p.m."? What kind of short-sighted policies do they have here? They were happy to take our money and not tell us that we'd have to leave by 9:00, knowing that we wouldn't be able to finish trivia. 2) Lost 1 star for slow and uninteresting trivia. Questions were read straight from a card by a host who didn't seem interested and didn't engage with his audience. He read each question slowly about three times, hence the s-l-o-w pace where it took 30 minutes for one round that didn't even have audio or video clues. The lack of players should have been our clue that this trivia event is not a success. 3) Lost 1 star for loud, eclectic ambience--this place doesn't know what it wants to be. The trivia was taking place at the same time as music on the speaker and sports TV were playing, all jumbled together at the same time. Maybe that's why the host had to repeat each question slowly several times. But hey, if you want to watch baseball while answering questions about Thomas the Tank Engine and listening to Mumford and Sons simultaneously, this is the place for you. If the food were good, it could save this place, but nope, just mediocre fare that could be served at any pub. And don't get me started on the quick little brown movement we saw out of the corner of our eye, darting under the dining tables. We know it's common for restaurants to have this problem, but flagrantly in the dining room while we were eating makes it easy to warn everyone we know never to come here. Solid nope, nope, nope for this place.

Denny's is now open in Halifax... actually it's right where Burnside meets Dartmouth Crossing…read more Hours: 1st of all Denny's is open 24/7. Location: The signage to get you there is pretty much non-existent. If you know where the A&W is, pull in there. You'll see a hotel. Denny's is behind the hotel. Hopefully that helps someone. I've eaten at Denny's (in Belleville Ontario) more times than I can count. This was not the experience I remember. I ordered the "BUILD YOUR OWN GRAND SLAM" breakfast for $14.39. I picked bacon, eggs, shredded hash browns and bacon again (because bacon is my spirit animal.) My wife ordered the "LUMBERJACK SLAM" breakfast ($19.49 I think) with eggs, bacon, sausage, ham, hash browns, pancakes, and toast. For the most part the food was amazing. I don't recall the food in Belleville being half as good as this was. The eggs were cooked to perfection. The food was very salty which I'm used to at Denny's. My shredded hash browns were the most flavourful I've ever had but the wife's seasoned hash browns were the star of the show IMO. We agreed the pancakes tasted like McDonald's hotcakes but much better. Sausages are my wife's favourite but these had a strange aftertaste that I can only describe as a medicine taste which I didn't notice until I swallowed. On the other hand the ham was moist and delicious. I also ordered a coffee. It was standard diner coffee. The toast was... toast. Nothing to write home about. In the end we were pleased with our experience and will return for dinner next time.

Leaving this message for Ryan.. was there for my usual which is the only thing I've ever had with…read moreslight changes over the years and that would be my chicken tetrazzini with Italian wedding soup and now you can interchange with the Caesar salad.. before you had to pick out the salad or the soup so it's great that you can have one of both .. of course most of my supper had to come home with me and it heats up very nicely the next day And a delicious birthday brownie Wasn't too impressed when I came in and there was no accommodations and that's fine it was suppertime, it was the staff that was looking after my waitlist place didn't know how to be creative or accommodating so I didn't know if I was going to stay because it was so off putting to me but I came all the way over there to get my stuff from another shop and I said I'm here now and I'm glad I stayed as Ryan turned it around for me so thank you Ryan! It does really matter what chef is on I prefer to have a lot more veggies and so when they cut back on the veggies I'm like okay what night is the other chef on lol because sometimes the dish looks awesome and full of chicken and veggies.. last night was a little on the ration side but it was still tasty with the soup and salad
