Ernie O's Restaurant & Pub — Restaurant in Alberta

EDIT - ** the owner doubled down and backed the bartender that was super rude to us. She barred us. Tops was great atmosphere and there weren’t any weird unspoken rules about moving tables *

I’m appalled at the way we were treated tonight. In town for the night, brought myself and 4 of my friends for supper and drinks . We sat at the bar at first waiting for a table. We ate before one became available, but we moved with our leftovers and drinks. Knowing they’re busy, we were. Getting quite thirsty and they were ignoring us. I went to the bar and politely asked for a round. She very very rudely said she won’t give us anything until we square up because how dare we move to a table when it’s a group of 5 yelling down the bar at each other instead of a table. They could have just told us, or there has to be a better way to treat people spending their hard...

Your litterally throwing your money away... service is mind blowingly bad... absolutely no service i.q. or any clue on what it takes to be good at your job... I use to be in industry for a long time... little things like.. when people order water with their meal just get it out before anything else comes up .. don't ring in a big top never once do a qualify check on the cook of the steak... never let the person who almost choked have water that he asked for ... the steak was chewy and way over cooked but she wouldn't know because the only time we chatted after was about 20 minutes after the plate was cleared ...like do u not think if u actually serve well maybe make more tips???? Like where's ur drive to be good at all. Anyways...

Wow is all I can say. This place has some of the hardest working people I've met. The food is amazing, high quality cuts for beef and amazing service. I asked the kitchen and the head chef for the evenings studied in Dubai and has a great deal of culinary expertise as I noticed with the quality of food. The owner is there every morning serving the hard working people of the oil patch and the town it's self and my god she can cook(that's what I call a leader). Very warm and welcoming staff. Id have to say out of all of the places I've eaten at on the town of Fox Creek this is the greatest quality. Thank you ernios for your welcoming atmosphere and exquisite service. Worth every star in...
