I went yesterday, everything was wonderful, the service was excellent. The girl, her name Lamess, she was very kind to us. Thank you for this lovely experience.
Went for my niece's birthday with my sister & brother in law. We ordered an extra lobster tail at 30$ to add to the boil. The waiter emptied the bag & just left without acknowledging us, no hello no smile, nothing. Other places add lemon all over the platter but he didn't bother didn't even talk to us. We then noticed we had nothing to break open the shells or the rods to push out the meat from the crab legs. We had to ask the waiter he then came back with scissors & cheap wooden rods unlike other locations that are metal. We then saw that the extra lobster tail we had ordered was not there. I mentioned it to the woman who took our order & she said she forgot & will get one ordered. We waited another 20 minutes to get it. She just put it on top of our platter with no sauce or anything on it. The platter was cold by then. My sister paid the bill & told me that the tip starting amount on the pad was 20% & even though she didn't like the service at all she still gave 20% tip & ordered a birthday dessert for her daughter. No one checked on us not even once the whole time we were there & left us with our tray & bucket of shells just sitting there long after we were done eating. The woman didn't even clear the table when she brought the cake & didn't bother to notice that my brother in law went to the washroom. She brought the cake with the candle & he missed it. She then placed it in front of my niece on the small space left on the table next to the dirty tray & was about to leave when I asked her to please clear the table. It's pretty obvious! Who wants to eat dessert with seafood shells & a tray of seafood sauce that was left but she was oblivious. Only when I asks did she pick up the tray but then left the bucket of shells. Continued to ignore us, I then called her over & asked her to please take the bucket she said she will send someone at that point I had enough & handed her the bucket & said please just take it so she did. Like how hard was that her hands were free so why call someone? Zero logic & horrible service. I then went to the counter to ask for an extra fork my niece wanted me to try her dessert the waitress started looking through a bag of wooden utensils while the metal ones were right behind her. I said can you please give me a metal one? She then gave me one. Why would I want a wooden one when I'm still in the restaurant it wasn't a to go order. Again no logic. I was a waitress for many years & I feel for people in the service industry however these two need real training they were lost or just didn't care they never once checked on us & forgot many things we were constantly chasing them to fix things. It was a frustrating experience. I will never go to that location again. We almost went to the one in the east end & regretted that we didn't. We know better for next time.

Ça goûte bon mais la qualité n'est pas au rendez-vous, j'ai pris le plat a 100$ les moules sont petites les crevettes aussi le crabe comme des pattes d'araignéea mince & aucune chaire buf j'ai dû manger plus de riz & de frites le service par contre est excellent
Bonne nourriture. Service pourrait définitivement être revu; peu de courtoisie & sourires, on nous laisse prendre la chaise haute pour bébé nous même & une fois servi on ne revient plus nous voir.
