Overall, Petinos is praised for tasty food, generous portions, and good value, with brunch and breakfast options that are fresh and well prepared. The place is often busy and lively, especially on weekends, which can lead to long waits, a crowded space, and a loud atmosphere that makes it hard to hear. Service can be friendly and efficient, but experiences vary and some guests report inattentive staff or orders that do not arrive as expected. The menu offers a wide range of brunch staples and classic combinations, with standout items like eggs benedict, potatoes, and smoothies, and some diners note that the menu can be a bit hard to read in the moment and the noise levels can be high. Overall, Petinos comes across as a reliable, welcoming option for a casual meal at an affordable price, with many favoring the LaSalle location based on repeat visits.View restaurant profile

Overall impressions point to flavorful Portuguese style chicken and other grilled dishes at Grillado's, with items like beef ribs and the Tuesday poutine special praised for taste and tenderness. Prices and portions are sometimes questioned and some reviews note inconsistent quality. Service is frequently described as friendly and attentive, but a few visits mention cleanliness issues and a setup that feels more oriented to takeout than dining in. Many reviewers say they would return when the experience is on point.View restaurant profile

Reviews of Muffins Plus note a mix of menu highlights and service quirks, with muffins described as incredibly moist and tasty and salads praised, along with sandwiches, banana bread and a variety of drinks including several iced tea flavors; however, there are reports of excessive ice in lemonade and in a medium iced tea, a disagreement with staff over scoop size, and the owner explaining the usual ice amount and offering a complimentary drink, which was declined, suggesting there may be room for a smoother experience while a future visit could be promising if less ice is requested.View restaurant profile
