    We brought 6 of our friends to eat for lunch and the chicken sandwich and the jerk chicken were not very good. Sandwich was chewy and not flavourful at all and same with the jerk chicken. Service was great but disappointing food and prices were very high for what you got. Love the location but probably won’t be back.

    The restaurant advertised their patio for Canada Day fireworks booking. We booked an outdoor table and came on time and it turns out they completely overbooked the patio and were telling many customers(including us) that it would be an hour wait and that too for a table inside. When we finally got a table, the food and service was mediocre. There was also no view of the fireworks as advertised. The patio also had several mice. We were also charged incorrectly for kung Pao chicken instead of Kung Pao tofu (the chicken option is more expensive).

    Service was slow and had to chase up waiters for drinks top ups. It was a busy night but they continued to bring more people in when they were struggling to serve those already there.

    The service was very slow and not attentive. There were times the server forgot to bring items or wouldn’t check on out table. The portions and taste of food were fine in general.

    Irene was a wonderful experience especially as we were able to enjoy the outdoors and the passing show. Some of us had dietary restrictions and the staff and kitchen were able to accommodate these requests. Bravo to a job well done
