Chances R Restaurant
Reviews
I haven't been to Chances R for a while. Today I went there for lunch. I found they
upgraded their game. The food was very tasty. Our server Leslie was outstanding! We had a bit of a mix up on the patio and inside and the hostess was very accommodating with our request to go indoors because of the wasps. I'll be back for sure 👍

Had a lovely meal here. Tried their short rib ragu, lamb chops, and seafood appetizers. Portions were excellent and food tasted great. If something could be improved it would be the ragu. Could use a little acidity to round out the richness of the sauce. Service was prompt and wonderful. Will be back to try some more of their dishes.
A family outing during our visit to Ottawa. The restaurant was quite crowded for a Wednesday night, which is a good sign. The food was quite good according to my companions. I ordered pork ribs with fries. The ribs were well cooked, maybe a little too much for some, but I was fine with that. The fries, however, were a total dud! Greasy, soft, soggy, and lacking any crunch. Fortunately, they were not salted.
Chances R at College Square is a great spot for a casual meal. They have a wide variety of options, including meat, seafood, and vegetarian dishes. The atmosphere is cozy with a bit of a nostalgic feel. The service is friendly, and the food is solid. I especially enjoyed the crab cakes and the burger. It's a reliable choice if you're looking for a relaxed place to eat with family or friends. I am strongly recommend it. It's a good place to go if you're not sure what you want, as they have something for everyone.
Chances R at Woodruff and Baseline is an excellent, must try if you are celiac. They have a separate fryer and grilling area. They take celiac disease very seriously; plus they also have GF beer (Glutenberg Blonde). Ask to be seated in Yonna’s section, she is amazing and absolutely 💯knowledgeable!
We went for brunch and I had the Texas Omelette with home fried potatoes.

First time at this brunch, the food is so tasty and good portion. Only thing the casher is speaking like a machine
The wait line wasn’t too long and ordered after few minutes, the menu is a bit confusing if you ask me . They are generous with the portions , the chicken was freshly grilled , as well as other ingredients like the rice and lettuce etc were fresh . Great Job!
Very friendly service and excellent food! 100/100 will definitely return. A very pleasant dinning experience
Had a very nice time here with my friend. Breakfast options, smoothies and fruit salad were very fresh! Service was also very good. It was pretty busy too, seemed like they had a senior discount day.
It tastes delicious, but today is the third time I have to run to the bathroom after eating there. I don’t trust this location’s standards for cleaning veggies and/or chicken. Something is off. Montmorency location is good, go or order there instead.
I just went to have food today and I ordered simply 2 eggs with ham with whipped cream on the side…. The service was okay .. it was all supposed to be $14 but the waitress took tip without my consent and added $2 more dollars without my knowledge and I knew it ..when I asked for that particular receipt she didn’t give me the receipt. I didn’t want to make big fuzz about it there but I felt so wrong and I was so disappointed…it was a young looking waitress and I didn’t catch her name. The food was good but you can’t scam people.
Lovely little restaurant in Kleinburg. Was so excited to try the Linguine frutti di mare that’s wrapped in pizza dough and I’d say it’s an absolute must have dish if you happen to come here. It’s soupy, aromatic and fresh. The gnocchi alla genovese however was a little too oily for our liking. Sauce to gnocchi ratio just wasn’t right. Service was awesome and atmosphere was comfortable and trendy. Would definitely recommend for a celebration or fancy date night!
Service was fast and efficient. Rice , burglar with condiments was good. Chicken was okay. Pieces were very small though , felt like I received someone's leftovers instead of actual pieces of chicken. 4 pieces of chicken was the equivalent of getting 3/4 of one chicken brochette from a restaurant. It was a little surprising considering the 20$ price tag.
Visited this location based off of a recommendation for a brunch with my family. Was pleasantly surprised. Polite waitstaff, nice location not too busy and great food! Unfortunately we could only communicate in english but the waiter had no issue with that and we had a good time.
We had a great time at Suliko. Food was delicious and service was great. If you like the Georgian food than definitely try it out. Thank you
♥️ The food quality and taste were excellent, just as always. I had a great experience overall. However, I think the service could be improved a bit. ➡️The staff should pay more attention to customers’ needs. For example, after serving the food, they should make sure to provide water, napkins, and other essentials. I trust Eggsmart and believe they will improve the service next time.
Thank you for the delicious food. ♥️
Thank you for the delicious food. ♥️
We had our son's Holy Communion lunch here and the food and service was top notch all the way. The manager was communicative throughout the entire planning process. Highly recommended for any religious celebration.
We had an excellent experience after my daughter's dance rectial. The food came fast and hot. Everything was delicious! It was busy and didn't affect the food. Love the fact that lots of options for all those who had speciality restrictions.
Excellent Georgian Food! Must try Lamb Pilaf (Plov) lamb rice and fried half moon pie Chebureki with beef/lamb. 👍
We dropped by on a busy Sunday noon for brunch. The restaurant is a family run favourite, and as usual the food was amazing. The poutine was divine, drowning in gravy and mozza cheese. The fish fillets were super crispy and delicious! And the cherry on top, the millionaire pie was tha Bomb! And here I thought nothing could top their famous giant cheesecake slices. The staff was also very friendly and welcoming. Will be coming back for more 😊
Every visit has been a delightful experience for my family and me. The ambiance is warm and inviting, making us feel right at home the moment we walk in. The highlight of our dining experience has consistently been the outstanding service provided by Jatashae. She goes above and beyond to ensure we have a fantastic time, always greeting us with a smile and catering to our every need especially taking care of our young son with exceptional care. The food is consistently delicious, capturing the authentic flavors of the Middle East. Paramount Middle East Restaurant is our go-to spot for a memorable and enjoyable meal. Highly recommend!
Fantastic onion soup, bread and dumplings. Will come again to try more food.
Great service. But I wish they served me with a fresh chicken. I asked if the chicken is fresh. And the chicken shawarma skewer was really new and fresh. I decided to have one.
And the result I got my shawarma wrap NOT from fresh shawarma WHICH WAS SPINNING . (From the drawer which possibly was cut the day before and stored it ). If you see the picture you will understand that if meat is fresh cut or not.
I hope health inspectors following this food handlers.

It was my first time at Belsito trattoria and had an incredible experience. The restaurant was beautiful and Martino did an excellent job. He went above and beyond with amazing service plus gave us great recommendations.
Highly recommend the linguine frutti di Mare, branzino dish and pizza. Worth every penny and looking forward to coming back again with the rest of the family. Thank you guys again and appreciate you.

Great value. The fruit options are impressive. Nice outing for the children and whole family. Won't break the bank. Plenty of free parking. Fun Times with the children.
Best staff, amazing service and food!! Recommended
If you want good shawarma in the London region, then you have to try out shawarma guys!
There are so many shawarma joints now, but this one truly sets it self apart. The food is fantastic. They make their own wraps, and I have to say it makes all the difference. Then they add the juicy chicken and it's spot on. Would recommend.
The only reason I don't give the place 5 stars is because the location dissapoints. It's truly not good looking, doesn't look hygenic. It's not a place I'd like to sit and eat.

We decided to try this Georgian restaurant and were very impressed! The food is delicious and the portions are very generous. Their plov and hachapuris can definitely feed two to three people. Katia was a very nice and attentive server. Thank you Suliko!
The food items are very creative and unique. Taste is phenomenal. I'd eat here every morning.
Had breakfast here, it was good and cheaper than other places in town. Basic fare, served in a very spartan dining room. Eggs over easy, sausage, omelets, shredded hash browns. The Holindaise sauce is unmentionable packet base- don't bother if you are a Benedict lover!
I've had the pleasure of visiting this establishment several times and would confidently say it's one of the best places in the area. The chefs here are quite skilled, consistently delivering dishes that stand out for their quality and flavor. The variety on the menu ensures that there's something for everyone, and the presentation of the dishes is always appealing. While the service is generally satisfactory, the food is what truly sets this place apart from its competitors. The staff are friendly and try their best, but occasionally there can be minor delays, especially during peak times.
On weekends, this spot tends to be quite busy, which speaks to its popularity. We usually visit during this time, and the bustling atmosphere is part of the charm. However, if you're planning to go on a weekend, I would recommend planning ahead to ensure you have a good experience. Arriving early or making a reservation can help you avoid long wait times and secure a good table. It’s worth noting that the lively weekend crowd adds to the vibrant atmosphere, making the dining experience even more enjoyable.
Overall, this place offers a delightful dining experience with superior food that makes up for any minor service hiccups. Whether you're a regular like us or planning your first visit, you'll likely find the quality of the food well worth the trip. So, if you're looking for a standout dining option in the area, this is definitely a place to consider.

Service was a little slow, food came out fresh. Portions are quite large and they give a lot of fruit - almost too much!
Prices are a little on the higher side for a simple breakfast place

There was only one server during lunch so the service and food were slow to come. Food was really just below par. Asked for different salad dressing but they only have two kinds that they served with the food we ordered - chipotle and ranch.
I sort of under estimated this place until yesterday I decided to give it a try damn the flavor profiles were PRESENT!!! I'm a big lover of mediterranean food and this place got my heart! The staff are also amazing our Server Jatashe was the best experience I've had in Canada!
This is now our family go to restaurant until we try the ENTIRE menu! The Paramount drink is unique and absolutely delicious 😋 Great place kudos to the staff who make the experience worth it!! Will be back on the weekend 🙌

Went on May 12th to celebrate Mother’s day, we did reservation 2 hours ahead of time, we arrived got seated by Natasha (5 people in total) waited for almost 30 hour for food to be served on the table, food was good however, we were told by the server that someone else is waiting to be seated!! Total time was in is 1 hour and half ( food took half an hour to be on the table) while we were eating kunafi, she approached us to say pretty much we have to leave and someone else is Waiting to be seated. Well let me say this I don’t care if Someone is waiting, as a customer who come in to enjoy a special event, you do NOT tell your customers to leave for someone else to sit while we are STILL eating, so unprofessional and disrespectful.
Great service. They were súper gentil with us! I feel the spirit of Mrs Cora in the air!
Excellent service, hot and fresh food, and a pleasant atmosphere made for a delightful dining experience. Would highly recommend!
All I can say is wow! You walk into a very unassuming restaurant and there is a pleasant greeting right on entry. Our server was very attentive and never missed an opportunity for a coffee refill. He was very also very pleasant. The food was excellent. Some of the best tasting spring rolls I've had and the sauces were the perfect compliment. This experience was lovely from entering all the way to the "Thank you for coming" when leaving.
It's so warm here that customer service is amazing. All the workers are amazing and so sweet, the drinks are so good and fresh and the food is to die for, did I mention how warm the atmosphere is, I think I'd come here just for the people!
Crowded, friendly workers, too much coffee.
Juice isn't fresh , store bought.
Food was okay, just too much aside that it was a lovely experience for my first time.
Had to order one at home, tho lol.

Their spaghetti sauce is homemade, and I conceded, way better than mine. WOW!
Impeccable service and very good prices. Thank you so much.

Classic spot to get XLB in Richmond. Their other menu offerings aren't bad either.
So let's start with the bad stuff. Unfortunately the strawberries 🍓 were not the freshest and the cream wasn't as great as well.
Now to the great part. Lots of parking spots outside. The waitress was really nice. Took quickly care of my order, was really friendly and gave a welcoming ambiente. The maple coffee was great as well.
Standard Cora experience.

I placed an order in advance for pickup at 7:10. When I got there the person working there said the person before him didn't mention the order so It wasn't made I was on lunch during work so this sucked but it's fine people forget it happens, the worker there was super nice he made my order as quickly as he could so if this was based purely on service this would be a five stars. However what I ordered was listed as 11.99 before tax but I was charged 13.49 before tax. I would have told the employee but I felt bad because I think he was the only one there (unless another worker was on break) and was getting alot of customers so I'm not gonna ask him if he accidentally overcharged me when he's making 5 sandwiches for one customer whilst trying to coordinate taking the order of 5 others. So the review is more directed towards the ownership for understaffing which will obviously result in mistakes like this happening more often.
Food is ok. Club house sandwich is much better than the nacho grill cheese.
The workers here are good people and friendly. The multitasking of these guys is ridiculous. Hell be working on 2-3 orders at once. Garlic sauce is AMAZING. They serve crispy fries, AMAZING, and their chicken shawarma is to die for. There's only two places in London that I will eat shawarma at and this is one of my top two.
Went there with a big group on a weekday night. The arugula salad was excellent! I also enjoyed cif e ciaf. The rabbit meat was tender and could be easily broke apart with forks. Taste of the mushrooms was delicious. However, their specialty fish, red snapper, was not as impressive compared to their other two dishes.
Our server was quite friendly and responded promptly to our requests. The ambiance was a bit loud but very nice if you’re looking for an authentic Italian place.

This was my first visit to this wonderful restaurant which definitely will not be my last. I had the amazing lamb spedini for appetizer and then the wonderful cod dish with potatoes heirloom carrots asparagus and olives in the most wonderful tomato sauce I've ever had. My compliments to the chef Adriano and to the staff for their wonderful service. This place is a gem and a must try. Well done team. See you next time. My sister loved the pizza and radicchio endive salad!
Photos on the wall don't do it justice. This place has some gems on the menu, but it is important to ask! We ordered the Ba Bao Jiang Mian, a noodle soup with a very well done chicken stew that had some Sichuan mala flavor but wasn't spicy. But if we didn't get the advice of another diner we'd have not known to order it. Glad we asked.
Service was friendly as well. There are dimsum items on the menu that look delicious as well.

The food at this restaurant was decent, and I found the decor to be quite fun. While it didn't become my favorite spot for Middle Eastern cuisine, it served its purpose well for a quick bite.
Went for brunch. Super busy. Our turn came in 10-15mins. We tried Nacho grilled cheese sandwich and a Burrito crêpe. Both were good. Staff was nice and helpful.
Other than the borsch soup, everything was terrible. They actually admitted to microwaving the rice to make it warm, and it was dry and for sure a day old at the bare minimum. The chicken shish kebab is not grilled on a flame or charcoal, very basic and bland. Asked for seconds of bread, and they brought us stale day-old bread, nothing like the first round. The service from the man server was very unenthusiastic. Would never go back.
This is a wonderful restaurant with superior service and absolutely tasty homemade meals! Who does this anymore? Everything from the soup of the day (which is delicious no matter the day) to the entrees and their amazing desserts are prepared on site and it is fantastic! The service is excellent! Quick service with tons of smiles really makes this an amazing experience. I highly recommend!
Beautiful experience at every Poulet Rouge but this branch stood out for me, employees are very active and friendly, quick and smooth service, would recommend this spot to anyone
I love this place. Service is excellent. The food is always fresh fast and delicious.
Tonight I ordered the Shawarma plate and for $19, It’s plenty of food. It’s nice to eat something fast, fresh and healthy for a reasonable price

Cora Breakfast is an absolute delight! From the moment you step through the doors, you are greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere. Kaieen, our frequent waitress is awesome with a big smile anytime we walk in. Although it might be slightly more expensive than other breakfast spots, the quality of every dish is simply outstanding. Each plate is meticulously crafted with its own unique design and bursting with mouthwatering flavors. A visit to Cora Breakfast is an experience that never disappoints—it's worth every penny!
Well managed and clean location. Ample seating and food is always A+.
Staff are attentive and well trained, service is consistently good between all of them.
My personal favourites are the Gigi and the breakfast burrito

Top Shanghai Cuisine Restaurant is a culinary gem, offering an exceptional dining experience with its super tasty food and great service. The fried noodles are a must-try, perfectly cooked and deliciously seasoned. Their tofu dishes stand out for their flavor and creativity, making it a delight for both tofu lovers and newcomers alike. Vegetarians will find themselves spoilt for choice with a variety of great options. The casserole dishes are heartwarming, rich in flavor, and a testament to authentic Shanghai cooking. Located conveniently, the restaurant's accessibility is just another plus. The steamed baozi with vegetables deserve a special mention for their freshness and delightful taste. Top Shanghai Cuisine Restaurant truly excels in offering a diverse menu, exceptional flavors, and a welcoming atmosphere, making it a must-visit for anyone craving authentic Shanghai dishes.
I came in for dinner near closing time, and it was still pretty busy considering the time.
I ordered the bandito burger with fries plus a starter Greek salad, and it all came out pretty promptly! The burger and fries were really good, and the cheesecake was fantastic with a whipped texture, not dense like usual cheesecake.
I'll definitely come here again next time I'm going through town

everything here is always so fresh and delicious. the fried rice was especially tasty, and as always, the steamed dumplings are a must. my dad comes to vancouver just for this place
Menu offers a variety of choice. Must try the fried dumplings and the xiao long bao. Compare to other restaurants, their price and portion sizes were reasonable. Service was ok, visited on a week night and the place was packed but luckily there was no Q.
Very good breakfast. Luckily they offer real maple syrup as well for a small fee.
Have not been here in several years due to food poisoning (food was actually really yummy back then) but decided to retry as we heard it was under new ownership. Food is ok but so expensive. Note you have yo check the large book for prices as neither the takeout or ordering menus have prices anywhere. We got stir fried rice cakes, both regular and pan fried buns and noodles. It was expensive for what it is, paid about $71 including tips and taxes. The buns were both yummy and super juicy but tiny, the rice cakes were also good but not ($20.99) good, and the noodles were bland had to send back to be redone unfortunately. Service left a lot to be desired, they just flat out ignored us several times when asking for white pepper and bill. Tip was also recommended to be 15%....
Cora is your old school north american style breakfast with a little European touch.
You can get your bacon and eggs with pancakes here.
Pancakes are great but for some reason the home fries is a bit undercooked during our visit.
Service is excellent and you feels like home.
Free coffee refill and coffee here is not bad.
Portion is big for the price in my opinion.
Lots of parking here!
I came here on a weekday around 1:00pm and they are still busy.

Half Georgian here 💁🏻♀️
I’ve never been to Georgia, but my extended Georgian family has grown up with me here in Canada, we’re basically neighbours. So though I don’t speak Georgian or know their culture fully, let’s say I know the food culture in and out.
As I grew up eating it, it’s like comfort food to me. Georgian food is always warm like the sun, and yet I don’t eat it often enough for it to become mundane.
I was craving it, and there it was on google maps, a 10 minute walk away. I was alone, so I was quite nervous. Like yes I am Georgian but with identity crises that comes with being mixed there was a layer of unease. I knew the foods, but I didn’t feel enough to KNOW them.
The staff were really nice :) they said I can sit anywhere, so I chose the corner seat. OH! And man that entrance door is FANCY! Had me feeling like I was only allowed here for fancy dinners at first 😭
The chairs are comfy just like the food hehe. I ordered Lobio and Khinkali. My aunt always makes khachapuri so I thought I’d order things I only get to eat at bigger dinners. And man did they not disappoint.
I definitely underestimated the size of the Lobio. Obviously it’s a shareable appetizer, come on Emily! But I got to take some home so whatever 😋
It’s SO good though. There’s never a SET way to make Lobio, it’s just always with kidney beans, so I love to try how each place makes it. They all taste good anyways. All the same power and warmth of spices but just different ones.They brought bread and different sauces to eat with it.
Khinkali was just as warm. They’re Georgian soup dumplings. They’re GIANT so if you’re used to smaller Asian ones like xlb be prepared, 3 will make you full. It’s slightly spicy and has a nice kick, but not overpowering so you get tired of it.
Again, the staff was so warm and nice, bless yall.
დიდი მადლობა! Thank you so much for having me :D

Friendly, polite and helpful staff. They explained about all the traditional items on the menu and even showed how to mix the dish at the table.
Portions are big. Some items, like khachapuri, take time to bake, similar to a pizza. Great taste and food presentation.
Ample free parking space.
Definitely recommended!

Top Shanghai Cuisine is a restaurant located within a plaza. Nowhere on the storefront is there even a display of the English name, so you’ll have to trust your gut instinct to locate the restaurant. Once you’re in, there is an extensive menu of Shanghainese food with most of the fill out menu in traditional Chinese. You’ll probably need a friend who can read Chinese to help fill out the form. The actual menu has both English and Chinese and lots of photos. My favourite was the pan fried dumpling and the fake duck tofu. Both were delicious and the pan fried dumpling was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Many of the dumplings came in 6 pieces so it was perfect for tasting and sharing. If you pay by card, I believe there is an extra few percent charged. There is a lot of parking space located within the plaza.
Amazing breakfast, eggs poached perfectly, maybe a bit heavy on the sauce for most but not for me. 10/10 would recommend for breakfast. Pricing is very fair.
Just went here tonight, a while ago! The tall guy who was at the counter barely added meat in the shawarma and didn’t even grill the wrap properly moreover we got regular fries which hardly had 10-12 pieces we asked him for spicy garlic dip and instead of giving in a small container he poured over the fries. It was all soggy and mess. Been here many times the service and food has always been top notch but this guy always disappoints us. Will make sure to never walk in to the store if i see him at counter. Disappointed!
I hadn't been to this place since I was 13 years old, and it's a surprise that it's still open!! If you don't mind waiting 30 minutes to be seated, another 30 minutes to place your order, and then enduring a 45-minute wait for your food, then this is the place for you!! 😂 I ordered a crepe with an "assortment" of fruits, which, according to the picture, should have included strawberries, blueberries, and kiwis. However, what I received was quite different – just take a look at the photo. When I finally managed to flag down the waiter (which also took a while), he brought over a plate with more pineapple and sliced cantaloupe, and I couldn't help but laugh. I asked, "What is this?" and he responded, "Well, it's an assortment, so it doesn't guarantee the other fruits." <- what?!? This place is where breakfast dreams go to die. LOL! was expensive too $$$
side note: the cucumber smoothy is disgusting

Ordered a shawarma guys special plate with beef and salad, and kabobs. The beef was a bit chewy, but the seasoning was good. The kabobs were okayish, it could've been better. The shawarma plate was for 19$+ , and was a bit expensive for the quantity.

This was my first time visiting this restaurant. The atmosphere is super nice! Our server was friendly, but he forgot to bring us few things like steak knife and bread ...etc. For food, the steak was delicious. Perfectly cooked and sauce was great. Pizza was also super tasty, but pasta was super salty for me. I would be back again. Overall a beautiful restaurant with good atmosphere!
Came to eat on out last day before going back home. First time I ate Pea meal.. love it. And food was prepared correctly and place was clean. As soon as we came in a lot of people started coming. A must when visiting Scarborough.
Yesterday went for dinner with my wife, I like this spot as they have a room for prayers, there food is freshly prepared and the ambiance is good, the service is good, but I feel that the management need to add one more service provider on the shop floor so the things can move faster . The drink was good with lots of fruit and ice cream. The food is a bit pricy but enough in quantity 👍
Had a leisurely sunday breakfast with family. The location was surprisingly busy but we were seated promptly
From what we saw it appeared the entire location was run by only one server and she honestly was doing her best to serve all the tables and keep everyone happy. She deserves a raise and your tips!
Food portions was decent and enough to be filling. However was pretty disappointed with the super tiny condiment cup with thin SLICES of fruit and like two blueberries.
Sadly my Nashville Hot Chicken Poutine came to my table lacking green onions. When i inquired with the server, she went to ask and came back to tell me they had "run out". I mean how expensive are green onions?! Wouldn't the prep cooks have a bunch chopped up in preparation for service? It's not like everyone was ordering my dish. Furthermore why did i have to discover one of the advertised ingredients was missing and have to ask about it myself? If you run out of something shouldn't you tell the guest ahead of time or offer some sort of substitute (i would have been more than happy to get regular onions instead)?!
Asides from the above issues, the overall good quality was fine, the family enjoyed the food and the bottomless coffee was decent

Cora makes having brunch special.
The egg Benedict is definitely their signature menu.
The kids menu for the little ones are well priced.
Coffee is refillable.

This is one of my favorite brunch franchise in town. The restaurant is small so be prepared for waiting. Parking is always an issue in that area. Foods are ok. Bathroom is a minus.
Came here for Father's Day weekend so I understand the long waits to be seated and receiving our food but it still ended up being a disappointment. Considering this is primarily a brunch place, I expected them to at least serve something better than the soggy soft potatoes my table received. The eggs were alright but nothing you couldn't do in your own kitchen and the bacon was just sad to look at.
It's definitely a family oriented place so kids will likely not care as much but at $15-$20 a plate I'd look somewhere else.

Returning Long Time Customer Alert ⚠️ 📢
Been here long time ago and they still taste the same!
Pros:
- The place looks the same many small and large tables.
- We had a big table of 10 people and still had room.
- The food is a hit or miss per item but anything that's dumplings are gooddd
- Have to try their XLB and The Fried Dumpling one. Super fresh and Juicy!!
- The now added more drink options as well.
- Price was reasonable as we had many dishes from Shanghai noodles to many XLBs
- Roughly was $300 without tip yet for 10 people. Still was reasonable.
Improvements:
- Customer service can be better when it comes to ordering food at a busy time.
- Honey Garlic SpareRibs can be better as it's not as honey tasting.

Good and consistent brunch spot. Ample parking. Always busy on weekends with lineups to the door, but weekdays are obviously slow. Food is always consistent, delicious and generous portions. Almost too many items to choose from, so there’s something for everyone. Kid-friendly also. Servers are generally great, might just take time to get their attention sometimes, depending on server. We had I believe Meghan (?) as a server who was very attentive and checks in every now and then if we needed anything, but have had others where we needed to get attention and nobody’s passing by for some time.
This was my second time at this restaurant. Because i liked it first time, I recommended it to a few of my friends to try something different from the typical restaurants. My friends and I loved everything about the service and the food. The waitress was super attentive, and she recommended some tasty traditional Georgian dishes. Everything we tried was delicious including the desserts.
Good deal for the $1 kid's meal for every $14 spent (we ordered two regular items and got two discounted kid's items), but only valid to mid June 2023.
Food quality is good. Fruit or kid's meals are chopped into smaller pieces so my two years old can be easier to eat.
I only gave 4 stars for the waitress's service. When we ordered water for drink, she only gave us two glasses while we have two adults and two kids. So I asked for water for the kids, she explained that she thought we would order drinks for them when we order the food... She then served two more glasses of water to the kids, but she didn't use kids' cups (which I remember Cora has, plastic cup with lid and straw). When we were ready to order food, I raised my hand and tried to get her attention. I'm pretty sure we made eye contact but I still have to wait for about 5 minutes until she could come and take my order.
Generally good experience with the yummy breakfast.

Taste wise, it was good, it wasn’t the best I ever had but, I was pleasantly satisfied. However, the food falls short with pricing. $19+ for a Shawarma plate that has 2 scoops of rice, 2 scoops of protein, and a small salad… EXTREMELY overpriced.
Service was fine, atmosphere was fine but, extremely hot in the store and, you’ll likely never want to dine-in.
Would probably recommend if you purchase something other than the plate.

If you want a sumptuous meal and love large portions of fruits in your meal this is the place. For us it seemed the perfect place for a sunny afternoon brunch. The food was delicious and the server extremely courteous. Loved the bright vibes and happy energies of the place too. The portion sizes were too large for us to finish though. The menu has the calorie count on each item - but you need to ignore that to order :)
We went for breakfast, the food ok is not amazing but is a nice breakfast, the portions are ok and coffee was good. What definitely make it a good place to eat is the staff, super friendly and very helpful, i went with a stroller and a six month old and they were awesome. The atmosphere is perfect, music is ok not too loud so you can chat and enjoy your breakfast with your family.
I haven’t been to eggsmart in a long time and this was my first time at this location and it was not anything as I remember.
Portions were so small compared to what you can get at other breakfast/brunch chains. Especially the eggs Benny - that was not good at all and for $15.99, tiny portions of home fries and a sad little container of fruits. For the standard breakfast, it was okay but the bacon was way too crispy where it literally was just breaking apart and hard to eat.
OUR service was pretty good however we saw our same waitress being very rude to a new customer about seating who walked in which also tainted our experience.
Would not come back here.

Love paramount and their authentic food. The shawarma plates are super delicious. Their Lamb Chops are easily the best I've had in a while.
The customer service at this location is exceptional and staff is very nice and accommodating.

AMAZING SURPRISE!!
I was driving from blue lake to find a place to eat, and I found this hidden gem.
The food was warm and delicious. The waiter was so friendly. And the cheesecake, OMG, made from scratch in-house. If you are passing by Dryden looking for a place to eat delicious food at a reasonable price, you should stop at Patricia Inn. :)

Great restaurant. The best and the biggest breakfast I had in a while. Great service, stuff is listening to the customer and food arrived very quickly. Love their pancakes with strawberries and banana slices baked with the batter, delicious 😋
Glad we came back to try again, many years ago we had a bad experience here and never came back, but decided to try another time.
Louis the Undecided was great, the sweet crepe was bigger than expected, it was packed with strawberries, banana and hazelnut spread, definitely satisfied the sweet tooth early in the morning!
The bacon and eggs breakfast was decent, but the bacon was literally paper thin, never seen bacon cut this thin before, so the meat portion felt a little small on that.
Otherwise it was a much better experience than before, both our servers are in training and they were lovely and cheerful.

Been here a few times and food is always awesome. Good size portions and decent price. The chicken shawarma plate is overpriced at $17 for what you get, but the Felafel wrap at $8 and shawarma wrap at $12 are decent value.
Service is good, the place is a little hot so you won't want to eat in.

Whether you're coming here for lunch, dinner or even breakfast. This is a great place to stop! I have been coming here for years and the food has always been fantastic. The servers are always friendly and willing to accommodate diet restrictions.
The portion sizes are massive! I often find I have leftovers to take home. My favorite part about the restaurant is that it has an all day breakfast menu. I would highly recommend the French toast with strawberries and whipped cream. You have to try the cheesecake! It's the world's best by far.
If you want to watch the sports games, check out the Sports Lounge in the other half of the building!

A good breakfast spot on Avenue Mont Royal. It took a bit of time to get our food since it was a weekend but overall great service and good food. Great vegetarian options!
