Robbie's Smokehouse & Burger Bar is described as a busy, lively spot where generous portions and standout smoked meats like ribs and brisket stand out, offering solid value for the price; the atmosphere is festive and sports oriented with plenty of screens, but crowds and noise can make conversations difficult on weekend nights and a few visits note slower service or occasional inconsistencies in quality.
The food is very good, but the service is exceptional. George the manager took care of us & he was outstanding. We will definitely go back just for the exceptional service.
They intentionally overcharged us & added items we never ordered. Two people weren't even allowed to share one dish. Even though we didn't order the SMOKED PLATTERS & just wanted a lighter lunch, they still tried to force us to pay an extra $12 for a bunch of lousy fries - otherwise they wouldn't let us order the ribs. Terrible service!
If you guys want to charge a cover fee per person, just say it directly instead of using cheap potatoes as an excuse.
Make sure to check your bill carefully - it's very easy to get overcharged here!

Quelle belle expérience, le service était super la nourriture excellente & mon steak comme demandé, tout étaient frais dans mon plat. Je reviendrai sûrement.
J'ai ADORÉ les hamburguers ainsi que l'ambiance du lieu. Vraiment comme je l'imaginais lorsque j'ai vu l'affichage extérieur.
Peut-être un peu plus de gentillese de la part de la dame de l'accueil, mais en génèrale excellent !
I called weeks in advance to make a reservation for a group, but when we arrived, the restaurant claimed they'couldn't find it.' They were eventually able to seat us, but the man who escorted us to the table was quite rude & aggressive.
The atmosphere was also disappointing, the music was excessively loud, making it difficult to have a conversation across the table, even though there wasn't a sports game or event on.
To be fair, our waitress was nice & the food was good overall. However, when we received the bill, we realized we had been charged extra for side dishes we were never told had additional costs. While ordering, suggestions such as the'fully loaded baked potato' & sauces were presented as options, but the added charges were never mentioned.
I love the food at Robbie but I don't really like how the waiters always find a way to upcharge you without letting you know, i know better but I went to eat there with my mom & she got up charged on 4 things & was surprised as the waiters never let you know if there's a small price different, it's getting annoying when you expect to pay 30$ & end up with a 60$ bill

Nada is the absolute best! Her service was priceless! In a time where service is below par, she goes above & beyond! Owner too (sorry forgot your name) checked in with us to make sure everything was to our liking. Food never a disappointment & always delicious!

Nice place, good service, everything tasted ok but low & slow meat should never be dry & EVERYTHING was dry. Honestly the only reason this place is rated so high is most Canadians have no clue what proper smoker house food should be like. Everyone's platter around us was like this & they all enjoyed it... Ignorance is keeping this place alive. Plus we've been billed 25$ to much. Unfortunately we didn't realize on time so that's not entirely their fault.
Really good atmosphere & the service was nice, but it doesn't matter when you get food poisoning the next day. Talked to a few people I know & apparently they have a reputation for not having the best food/meat & a lot of people getting sick, including myself. As i am writing this I spend the day having an fever, being in & out of the bathroom & its just the beginning. Would really not recommend. Worst experience i ever got from any restaurant in my life
Great steakhouse,from the 2 hostesses when you arrive to the waitress, service is 5⭐?
I had the meat plater overflowing with ribs, chicken,brisket pulled pork it tasted great.
Ask for George super guy.
Can't say much about a lot because I only get the meat platter. You best do the same. You're gonna turn down a mountain of meat? $170 for 4 (though it could easily feed 15 small children for a week) is a steal.
Plus you get to choose 8 sides.
