    Menu options a little limited. We were a group of 4, 3 different dinner selections were ordered (2 people had same thing). All were OK, but none were great. Pork chop and salmon dinners were a bit over cooked. Took a long time for meals to arrive, but server kept refilling water and checking on our drinks. Overall, it was an okay experience, but nothing really special.

    Prime rib was very fatty and almost raw. Mashed potatoes were too salty. Salmon with orzo was nice but not spectacular. Server was friendly and gave 50% discount on prime rib dinners. Service was slow. We arrived at 6:00 but food wasn't served until 7:00. Kitchen problems?

    The steak and the salmon were both delicious. The waitress was friendly and helpful. The dessert (pavlova) was to die for. Overall a first rate dining experience.

    My wife and I are visiting Stratford and I booked dinner at this restaurant. My wife had the steak and I had the smoked pork chop. They both were really great. The service was very good and we liked the ambience of the restaurant.

    The sirloin steak was excellent, however my husband has the smash burger which was not fully cooked so he wouldn't eat it.

    Our expectations were met wonderfully when celebrating our anniversary dinner at The Parlour Inn. The food was delicious and presented very attractively. The ambience of the restaurant was warm and enjoyable, while the service by our waitress was outstanding.
