Main Street Restaurant- Baddeck — Restaurant in Baddeck

I rarely write reviews but I felt compelled in this case. There are some really fundamental issues happening here. We waited over a hour and a half for some nachos, a veggie burger and salad. The burger and salad came completely undressed and together cost $50, which is absurd, even for a touristy spot. Beyond the food, the atmosphere was chaotic, with servers and staff running around frantically trying to organize themselves (without success). Most other diners waited as long for their meals, and I overhead at least three other tables make complaints. Given the level of dysfunction, I was surprised that the owners didn’t offer to comp meals. The staff were clearly working hard—I think this was likely a management issue. Hopefully some significant lessons are learned from this opening weekend, but I personally...

I don’t usually leave bad reviews, but this place definitely deserves one. First of all, they charged me for something they didn’t even have in stock, which is ridiculous. On top of that, the Philly cheesesteak burger I ordered was honestly gross. The bun was way overcooked and hard, there was no sauce at all, and overall it tasted dry and flavorless. Honestly, I could get a way better one at a random pizza shop for half the price.

To make things worse, the gluten-free version was literally half the size of the regular Philly cheesesteak, yet they still charged the exact same price ($21) — PLUS extra just for the gluten-free bun. That’s just unacceptable. Overpriced, disappointing, and definitely not worth it.

My single star, goes to the...

This restaurant is an absolute gem! Our group of six enjoyed an incredible meal, savoring the Philly cheesesteak, Alfredo pasta, Mediterranean salad, nachos, and fried chicken burger. Every dish was a hit, but the Mediterranean salad stole the show—hands-down the best salad I’ve ever tasted! If salads were always this good, I’d eat one daily. The Philly cheesesteak was packed with flavor and perfectly crafted. We also shared an appetizer of exquisite (always pricey) oysters, and each couple had a main dish and a drink, with the bill coming to about $60 per couple—well worth it for the quality. The grand finale was the chocolate truffles, which were simply out of this world. This spot is a must-visit, and I can’t wait...
