Captain George — Restaurant in Kawartha Lakes

If you read any of my reviews youll see that I only write good reviews and not the bad ones..until now. My family and I have eaten here many times over the years. Overall, the food has been been consistently good and when we've had a craving for fish and chips this has been our go-to place. Unfortunately the prices have become ridiculously high for fish which has certainly slowed our trips. . The food was, as always good. Now maybe I'm wrong but im sure that the portion sizes of fish have shrunk way down in size. If you raise the cost of meals by over 30 percent then maybe the portion sizes should stay the same. All the same, this wouldn't be cause to get me too upset. It would just make our visits less frequent. We paid (taxes in) $137 for dinner and they added an additional 25 cents to the price for a take out container for our coleslaw. Seriously folks it's not the quarter but if I'm spending that kind of money I'm sure the 25 cents won't break the bank. To me it's being chincy. Now comes the service ..and the reason for my bad review. The service we received was absolutely atrocious. Now I consider myself a decent judge of character and tend to let things go when I receive less than adequate service. One of those "maybe they're having the worst day ever " but I don't think today was that day. Today it came off like this is the way she is and if I don't like it ...oh well, too bad.. as she sucks her teeth (tsk) when we asked for more tartar sauce and a slice of lemon as they only gave us one slice of lemon and one tartar sauce for a 10 piece family dinner. She may have well said "what do you want now?" Because that's absolutely the feeling we got when we went there today. We kept looking at each other in disbelief of the service...or lack of and what seemed to us to be the worst service ever. I've given it a 2 star because the food was still decent. So, in the end, if it's up to me, we won't be returning and you won't receive another...

We stopped in for dinner prior to going to a show. The food itself was excellent but to be honest we both thought the portions were small. I also had ordered a salad to go with my fish on a bun and fries but apparently there was a misunderstanding because I didn't get my fries (I didn't say anything, we were on a schedule and we weren't charged for them so I left it alone). I think they need more staff, servers in particular. It was the height of the dinner hour and there was one poor lady trying to look after everyone. Her attitude was a bit brusque but after finding out she'd been there since the opened and was going to be there until closing I completely understood why she wasn't the friendliest. She did manage a few smiles and a bit of conversation as we were getting ready to leave. The 4 stars I gave are not reflective of this hard working lady in any way, shape or form. I'd go back and give it...

Very disappointed with dining in. Probably best in they stick to Take Out only. Visited at dinner time, 5:30 pm. Atmosphere was uninviting as only one half of the restaurant was available for seating. A chair and sign at the entrance stopped customers from sitting at the front near the windows. The fish was ok but mostly batter and the salad was a disappointment, mostly lettuce, best to keep it off the menu. We asked for coffee and was told "sorry we do not have a pot on". Obviously not wanting to put too much effort into wanting to give good service. The ladies bathroom was cleanish and had hand soap and towels but most of the tiles were falling off with several holes in the walls. It really needs work and gives you a yucky feel to what is suppose to be a nice evening out. Luckily Lindsay has many nicer other options for a meal out. I will not...
