BUT, this smash burger is much bigger than Buffalo bros. 4oz patties, didn't taste any onions with it, don't know if they make them traditionally. Best way I can describe the meal is it tastes like a well cooked smash burger you'd make at home, on a soft bun similar to Burger Kings, with fries similar to McDonald's. They do give you enough fries similar to five guys which is nice! This would be a sit down fast-food type of meal but think fresh. Definitely on the opposite end of the spectrum for burgers if you like ABV or grovers type burgers. But good. Will come again!

We had been driving past this restaurant for the last four years. It sat empty for what seemed like…read moreforever, but the name always caught my attention. When we noticed it had finally reopened under new ownership, my husband and I were genuinely excited to give it a try. Today (Sunday, July 19th), with clear blue skies, no smoke, and one of those perfect Niagara summer afternoons, it seemed like the ideal place to meet friends for lunch on the patio overlooking the Niagara Parkway. Unfortunately, from the moment we arrived, the experience steadily went downhill. Shortly after we were seated, the band introduced themselves by announcing they were there to "make some noise." They certainly delivered on that promise. The volume was so excessive that the restaurant windows were literally vibrating. It became impossible to have a conversation, even while seated inside with the patio doors closed. Every time the doors opened, the noise was overwhelming. We watched customers leave because they simply couldn't tolerate it anymore. As someone who has spent decades in the restaurant industry as a Director of Operations and Director of Training--and who has also been trained vocally and sung most of my life, I appreciate live entertainment when it's done well. This wasn't. The singer struggled throughout the performance, the drummer never settled into the pocket, and the bass consistently lagged behind the beat. It sounded more like an unrehearsed garage band than entertainment that enhances a dining experience. Live music should create atmosphere, not drive customers away. The service was equally disappointing. Our server mentioned she was "new," although she also said she'd been there for a couple of months. New staff aren't the problem--lack of training is. Simple service fundamentals were missing throughout our meal. Empty glasses and finished plates remained on the table long after they should have been cleared. Drinks weren't delivered promptly because staff seemed more engaged in conversations with each other than watching their tables. There was little evidence of anyone managing the dining room or coaching the team. Then came the food. It arrived hot, which is always appreciated, but that's about where the compliments end. The tzatziki bore little resemblance to authentic tzatziki. It tasted more like sour cream mixed with relish than yogurt, cucumber, garlic, dill, and lemon. As a matter of fact, there was no garlic or dill in it at all. The rice was so heavily salted that it was inedible. The "Greek salad" was simply a bowl of lettuce with a few rings of red onion, three olives, and some feta scattered on top. A traditional Greek salad (horiatiki) is built around fresh tomatoes, cucumbers, red onion, green pepper Kalamata olives, feta, olive oil, oregano, and either red wine vinegar or lemon. Lettuce is rarely part of an authentic Greek salad. None of us expected perfection. We just wanted to try a new restaurant, sit on the patio and enjoy some time with our friends - that didn't happen - Instead, we left wondering how a restaurant with such a prime setting could miss the mark in so many fundamental areas: atmosphere, service, training, and food quality. A spectacular location can attract first-time guests, but only a great dining experience brings them back.

The fries don't really stand out in my mind and I'm pretty sure they are from frozen. I do love the Crab Rangoon Rock Rolls!! They're a little too pricey to be overly happy with them. A burger and fries comes to over $20 before tax and tip, unfortunately that's typical these days. Which would be fine except it doesn't feel like the ingredients are of especially good quality. But we clearly like them enough to continue to order on occasion. I'm back into cooking, so I don't know how long I'll be willing to pay these prices for the type of food I can easily make at home. I'm originally from near Napa, California. My family still lives there. It's insanely expensive to live or run a business in Northern California, but for some inexplicable reason restaurants there are able to charge less than Buffalo?? And most places there are making their food from scratch. You don't find Ken's dressing or mass-produced macaroni salad served at restaurants there, for example. i'm running out of patience with Buffalo restaurants...so I'm actually very happy to be back cooking most meals at home. Anyhow, I think they're worth a try anyways.

Could only get deep fried food because nobody to cook yet but that was ok something to tie my daughter over so we got onion rings. They were good crispy and great onions inside. When someone came in to cook we were ready to go so next time we will get more food drinks were good got a lemon slice in my vodka and ice tea that hasn't happened in awhile will be back specialty in the summer when we come visit friends and my daughter wants to try the food she couldn't on Saturday

I ended up playing several funny rounds of ad-libs with strangers which totally made the evening. I felt welcomed and comfortable, like I immediately was one of the regulars even my first time there. The beer is great and they have a ton of options including stuff on tap and in cans. Look for the tv on the wall for the list of current beers on tap; it's on the far left side of the bar just above the large front windows. My curly fries and chicken strips were perfection - think of the best possible version of those things and that's what I got here. This came with sides of BBQ sauce, blue cheese dip, and ketchup. I greatly enjoyed my pumpkin ale and would happily drink this again. I appreciate that there are so many vegan options on the menu (not my thing but it's nice to have a place to bring vegan friends!). A surprising very cool thing was the restroom. There is great art all over the walls! Check it out even if you don't need to, you won't regret it. I sat at the bar; there is another room with tables and a pool table and I think I spotted some hidden booths in the back. There are also a few outdoor tables out front. Lighting is pretty dim so if you're going to read a book, choose your seat strategically. General volume is on the louder side. Parking is on the street. I saw that they do trivia on Monday nights; there are a ton of flyers for upcoming events in the front window. Overall this was a very easy place to give five stars to.

I'm so happy they have vegan food, so I believe that everything here can be vegan, I was so excited…read morewhen I saw pretzels and vegan cheese but sad when they said they ran out so I'll be back for that. I got the vegan Mac n cheese and the chicken tenders with fries. Everything I got wasn't good, the breading on the 'chicken' was disappointing and tasted like old oil. The vegan blue cheese was good surprisingly cuz I don't care for the real thing at all. The fries were fine but the Mac n cheese had absolutely no flavor, my kids said to me that mine was better and they aren't that picky with food elsewhere unless it doesn't taste like anything. For that I'll still be back to try other things cuz I appreciate the effort in making vegan food for us vegans out there.

The menu choices are similar, too, so it was kind of like going home. The service is friendly, the food is good (at least everything that my party ordered went down well), and, as I had been warned, the portions are generous. I can definitely see this becoming a favourite hangout for me in Fort Erie. Update: As I expected, Green Acres has become one of my favourite hangouts in town. Most of our friends love the food there, too. Post Covid-19 Update: When the Covid-19 lockdown hit all the restaurants in town, we picked our five favourite restaurants in town -- the five places that we really wanted to see survive, and tried to concentrate our takeout business on them. When Green Acres first went takeout-only, the parking lot would still be full of cars, with people waiting to pickup their takeout orders. With customer loyalty like that, I guess we didn't need to worry much. Anyway, they took the time to have the floors inside re-done, and now that they're open for dine-in again, it's a predictable treat being there again.
