Philthy Phillys, Canning — Restaurant in Canning

We live In Canning and order here.. ALOT. If I had one message for the Team, this would be it.. A. If your fries are still Frozen .. don't offer Poutine. Because even if asked to be well done fries , they still end up uncooked and starchy in the middle , and we feel bad deciding on how often we should be calling in to complain about it ( My GF is obsessed with poutine for lunch , but recently started ordering later in the day to make sure that the fries were thawed out before they went in the fryer . )

B. If you don't have your own gravy in stock , Don't offer poutine ! The canned gravy or whatever it is that you get from the shelf or from Sam's is far too watery and lacks flavour, and just generally makes the whole thing a sad gravy soup .

I don't like poutine , this is coming from the man of a lady who loves poutine that has been frustrated as of late . Don't get me wrong , the odd good poutine keeps her trying her luck , but as of lately it has not been in her favor .

I have had many burgers and a few cheesesteaks from here that were all a solid 5-6 out of 10 . ( when you consider the fortune you need to pay for them ) . This is a valley standard I guess.. I work in Halifax 5 days a week so for me to judge based on what I can get in the HRM to bring home for dinner might be unfair to some of the locals.

I think there is room for much improvement.

I went to this location based on all the reviews. It had been a long day and I made the trip out believing the reviews.

I strongly question the ability of management in operating this restaurant. I arrived during business hours (weekend) and there was no one working. The advertised time to close was 9:00 pm. There was no sign on the entrance door, restaurant areas like the counter and nothing posted online about the closure. The restaurant hadn’t appeared to have been open all day. The overall cleanliness was mediocre at best.

A kind lady working the gas bar told me that they weren’t open and she doesn’t have anything to do with the restaurant side of things.

Should you support this business? This restaurant may or may not be open when you arrive. If you don’t mind wasting gas and working out a secondary plan for dinner- I wish you...

My husband and I were in for the first time today. The first thing that stood out was how friendly the owner (I presume) was. He ask about every detail of our meal to make sure it was made to our liking. I had the feta fries, I rarely give a 10/10 but omg, out of this world good. I also got the original chicken sandwich and it was also delicious, like dripping with flavour. My husband got the original poutine and Philly special. He’s not normally a huge fan of poutine but we heard it was good and he was not disappointed. The Philly, wow! We went to the look off to eat and there wasn’t much talking, mainly wow, omg, so good!! We will be back often! I can’t wait to try the other items. My husband and I have ate a lot of place throughout the Valley/Halifax/Dartmouth/PEI/NB and this will stand out as...
