The Boondocks Eatery — Restaurant in Georgina

We've been there twice before with friends and without for early dinners. Friends have been many times and had great food. On our previous visits, we had the garlic shrimp appetizer (really really good) and pan fried pickerel, which was delicious. The fish was perfectly cooked but the fries were seriously overcooked and looked like the shreds left over from lunch. Only big problem was it took such a long time for the food to come that our friend considered leaving. This time we once again waited a long time for the food. We again had the garlic shrimp (still amazing) and eagerly anticipated the pickerel. After another long wait the meals arrived. Two of us had pickerel beer battered and one had it panfried. Our other friend had catfish with couscous, which not only looked delicious and succulent but tasted great too apparently. Sadly that was the only decent meal out of four. The pan fried pickerel was full of bones and a little overcooked. Once again his fries were like the shreds left over from lunchtime, overcooked and hard. The beer battered pickerel arrived a dark brown, as were the bits of fries. The batter was so overcooked that it was bitter, not tasty all and the fish inside was so overcooked that it was hard, dry and tasteless. The fries were so hard they couldn't be stabbed with a fork. Fortunately the friendly server took the two beer battered off the bill but sadly did nothing about the boney pickerel. Next time we'll probably try...

Don’t waste your time and money going to this awful place. This is by far the dirtiest and messiest restaurant I’ve been. I had lunch there today. Waitress was so rude and it took her 1 hour or more to bring 3 burgers and one pasta. I hate to write bad reviews but nothing about this place is worth your money and energy. All the toilets were blocked and unusable. Tap Water was so dirty and smelled so weird. Honestly, as I’m writing this review I got a bad stomach pain which I don’t know if it’s for the food or the water cause the water smelled and tasted so awful and like dust. By the way, the view is not at all like what you see in the pictures and only patio tables have some view to the lake and there are only 3-4 tables on the patio. This is a dirty place and I was surprised how they brought that awful water. After they brought our burgers we asked for hot sauce which took the waitress another 30 minutes to bring and we were done with our burgers already!!!!!! They gave us discounts on our food as I complained and was so pissed! But it won’t change the fact that the restaurant was so dirty and how they behaved us at first! Don’t even try to go to this cause you may wait hours for your food! And you probably end up sick after...

Went on a road trip with a friend to explore Georgina, that's when we ended up here. Over the course of 2 hour drive we had built quite an appetite. Plenty of parking space was available, when we walked in we we're greeted by friendly staff and were given the option to pick our own seating.

Drinks were served without delay and the dishes on menu seemed great. Important point to note -the menu is on the pricey side, therefore high expectations. I ordered Mushroom Ravioli with brown butter and my friend ordered Fish and Chips. There was little to no wait time for our food to arrive.

The presentation was great and the ravioli was very aromatic due to the brown butter. Right off the bat, when the food arrived I was a little disappointed due to the serving size. We we're both very hungry and 7 ravioli was not going to cut it. Regardless I decided to dig in the brown butter had great flavor, mushrooms were perfect, the ravioli was minimal on flavor, but the spinich was watery and bland.

We completed our meal in matter of minutes, the server was great and brought the bill quick and concluded the interaction with great smile.

In conclusion, the food is mediocre, the serving size is not great and price does not reflect the...
