Food was good. Service started out fine but she never came back and some food came out all at once and some way later so we were all eating separately (table of 6). We were wanting to order at least one more round of drinks so she could have doubled the price of our bill but she never came back. Some ordered condiments never came but we ran out of time to get to our event so we didn’t bother asking someone else but still got billed for them. Kind of disappointing. Food was good though.

The food is great, music played is fun, the servers are nice, and drinks and food come fast. Only thing I didn’t like was the area we were seated for our reservation. We had to walk across the entire restaurant (which is huge) and up a flight of stairs for a tiny 2 person table that was lopsided and tucked away crammed against a wall.

Came here before the hockey game with a friend. Booked reservations because we knew it would be busy. Mondays night special was happy hour all day. My friend and I ordered everything from the happy hour menu. When we got the bill, no happy hour prices were applied. The explanation we got from our service was that on game days-happy hour isn’t valid… when I asked where this info was, she said it was online…. I didn’t order from an online menu so I’m not sure how I would’ve known this.. on top of that, our serve knew we ordered everything off the menu and didn’t disclose that info when we were ordering. I understand it was busy- but a little better customer service would be appreciated. Information provided on a website is not helpful when you aren’t ordering from the menu online. And I truly believe our serve should’ve spoke up and said something when we ordered everything from the happy hour menu. Would’ve been nice to know prior to ordering.

Brutal. Had a reservation at 5:15pm, oilers game started at 6:30 should be enough time to have an appy and a few drinks right? Wrong. At first the service was good. Got a drink quickly and ordered food right away. We ordered 2 appetizers. Nachos and sliders. Our nachos took 45 minutes to get! We never got our sliders after waiting for over an hour. I don’t really care if your restaurant is busy. It should not take that long for appetizers. You’re in ice district. You know you’ll be busy on game day and when you have people making a reservation maybe make it a priority for them to get their food. I’ve never gone to a restaurant before and not gotten my food lol like it was so bad. And why did 2 appetizers that were ordered at the same time not come out together?! This place is an organizational mess.

Came in as a group of four, we made a reservation to have some dinner and drinks before the hockey game. Once we were all seated the server took our drink orders as well as food orders. Fast forward over 45 minutes and 2 more rounds of drinks later, still no food. So we asked how much longer it was going to take because we had to leave shortly. The lady serving us said that we never had any food orders! We were like “umm what wow, we are all really hungry and now we don’t have time to eat before the hockey game!” She said “well maybe next time you should think about coming in earlier as we are really busy”. How incredibly rude, that is awful service!! She literally blamed us for it HAHA. I would give ZERO stars if I could.

Declined brunch menu, declined happy hour drinks/food all within their allocated time periods posted on menus. Also kitchen took over an hour for food, which came out one plate at a time throughout 35-45minutes. No one ate together due to this.

When we arrived a very nice table was waiting us. The staff was very friendly and accommodating as the others were 15 minutes late, so sat at the bar and had a drink while they held the table. The service was excellent as was the food. It wasn’t noisy although we didn’t mind as we were as noisy as the others and should expect that on a night out. Will recommend to others and will be back.

We were extremely appreciative to get in twenty minutes earlier than our reservation! The food was INCREDIBLE! The drinks were deliciously flavourful! The decor is wicked cool and sparked fun conversations about childhood! The only downfall was the service. Our waitress seemed like she was in a bad mood and annoyed to be at work. I understand everyone has a bad day and perhaps that was the case, we hope to get back there for food and drinks again soon and have a better experience with the service!

We booked a reservation 2 hours before puck drop. Party of 6 hoping to celebrate 4 birthdays. Ordered drinks and food only to find out that there was an "issue" with the kitchen. We were okay with a bit of a delay, had another round. 15 Minutes before the puck drop, and after waiting an hour at 45 minutes, we were told that the food wasn't coming at ALL. The waitress never followed up with our order and we were confused as everyone around us was getting food and already finished and left. We were getting frustrated at this point. We told them we had to leave, without getting our food, the bill came in and was totally wrong. At this point we asked to speak to a manager, he apologized with no real explanation as to how this could possibly happen. He got down one of our numbers and said he contact us to make it right, we are yet to hear from him. I would think twice about going here before an event at Rogers, why serve so many tables if you can't serve them?

Our server was very quick to come over and responsive. She checked up on our group several times. It was before a hockey game and we didn't have a ton of time but never felt like we had to rush because everything came quickly. A couple of the boys headed off and played ping pong so we had to call them back when the food arrived. The food was good as well. No complaints.

Made a reservation as it was an evening with a concert. Walked to our table and our server said that we should order soon as the kitchen was getting busy so we ordered as soon as she came back to check with us (5 minutes into getting there). We ordered and the received our first round of drinks. After we had finished, we ordered a second round of drinks and asked about the food. She said she would check. My food( lettuce wraps) arrived 45 minutes after ordering without the other food (one order of nachos and the sushi taco). We waited for a while and my group told me to eat while me food was hot. After another 30 minutes of waiting for the food (after asking several more time with the answer of the kitchen is backed up) we had to get our bill as we had missed the opening of the concert we were going to (we had been there for almost an hour and a half at this point). The server took the food cost off the bill as only one item came out. As we were paying for the drinks, the sushi tacos came out. The person who ordered them ate her meal but the two people who were going to share the nachos had no food. As we were finishing our drinks and getting up to leave, they brought the nachos. We told them to bring it to the next group who had orders nachos as we were leaving. The person bringing it out, shrugged and put it on our table. We then told our server (who had been there while the nachos were delivered) that we were leaving so obviously wouldn’t be eating. She said as soon as the plate is down it cannot be served to someone else. Who knows what they did with the nachos after but it was not a pleasant experience and we won’t be back.

We had a reservation for 5:15pm last night. When we got there, there was 1 table upstairs and us. Drinks took awhile to come out and when we tasted them, they were not good. But for $15ea we just drank them. We got our appetizer, it was good and dinner was good too. It filled up fast after we finished our appetizer. No drinks were offered when we ate dinner. We ordered shots before dinner and it took awhile for them to come also. Server didn’t come to the table while we were eating. When we did finally get to order drinks, it look 25 mins to get 3 beers brought to our table. Other tables around us also looked annoyed about service. They also waiting for drinks and food for along time. We were going to the concert and didn’t pay the bill till almost 7:30pm.

It was our first time here and wasn’t busy on the day we’re here. Food and services are great! We reserved 2 bowling lanes out of 4 in total which is all we need for our party. We’ll likely come back again with a bigger group. All the best The Banquet!
