My family and I used to visit the Silo Grill fairly often before the pandemic, and we were always very happy with the service and food. The chef changed at some point during the pandemic, and maybe the ownership did as well, but things have definitely changed for the worse. My family and I have now gone for brunch twice this year, and each time was quite disappointing. The first time I tried the Cinnamon French Toast. On the menu it says it comes with chocolate sauce and pecan butter, but when the plate arrived, there was hardly a drizzle of chocolate sauce, and there was no pecan butter to be seen. When asked about it, the waitress replied that it was likely cooked into the batter of the French toast. No cinnamon could be tasted either. This latest visit, I tried the Orange Buttermilk Pancakes, which is supposed to come with Strawberry Angus Honey Butter, and Niagara Berry Compote. As it's in the title of the dish, I would have expected to taste some orange in the pancakes, but I couldn't taste any. If you have it listed on the menu as an ingredient, I should be able to see/taste it! The Strawberry Angus Honey Butter was a nice addition, but there was no compote. The waitress said she didn't know about the honey butter or the compote but would ask the chef. She came back with a small bowl of fresh berries, and said the chef didn't know that the compote went with the pancakes. Fresh berries are not a compote, not even close. Also, I am sure that they water down their maple syrup (or table syrup). It is extremely watery both times I was there, and didn't taste like much.
My mom had ordered a tea with her breakfast, and not only did it not come with a teapot, it was brought as a single cup with the teabag already in it. I've never seen tea served like that anywhere. Very strange as the table next to us got a teapot.... Lastly, she had ordered the 3 Egg Whites scrambled. As vegetarians, we always are on the look-out for good vegetarian breakfasts, and this seemed like a great dish as it comes with asparagus, roasted tomatoes, mushrooms, and orange and grapefruit segments. The tomatoes, orange and grapefruit were missing, and instead there was bacon on the plate. The waitress said the chef thought we had ordered the Farm Fresh Eggs. I can't believe that the waitresses don't even know what's in dishes, or how they are made. I would also expect the chefs to know what goes with what dish.
Overall, quite a disappointing few experiences with the new chef, and I'm not sure that we'll be returning. For the price, with all those mistakes and inconsistencies, it doesn't seem worth it. The two stars I'm giving are for the friendly service, friendly hostess, and great view over the...

Read moreOur group of 6 came for dinner on Mother’s Day. It was our first time at the restaurant, and we’d heard good reviews, especially since it’s inside such a prestigious golf club. Unfortunately, after the hostess brought us to our table, the service beyond that was abysmal and left a sour note in our whole group to what should've been a special occasion. Our reservation was at 5:30 pm, and the restaurant was only a quarter full. There were plenty of servers on the floor standing around, plus a gentleman in a shirt and tie who appeared to be the manager. Yet, no server came to our table for 30 minutes since we sat down—no glasses, no water on the table. We tried getting someone’s attention, but everyone seemed to have tunnel vision and overlooked our table, even the gentleman with the tie. We saw the servers helping the tables right next to us, and yet we still couldn’t stop anyone for their attention. Ultimately, I had to go to the hostess counter and let them know the situation. The hostess apologized profusely and explained there was a miscommunication within the servers. I saw them realizing they messed up and scrambling to get us water. Our server finally came (to no surprise, it was the server helping the tables next to us) and apologized yet again. We placed our drinks and food order all at once. We waited more for our cocktails to come one by one, and by this time, it was 6:30 pm. Our server came back a couple of times to confirm different items in our order, which left us even more frustrated. We want to give her the benefit of the doubt that she might be new, but the whole front house staff just appears inexperienced and like a bunch of high school part-time hires. Only if a manager was notified and checked in with us, maybe that would’ve turned our night around. Our food was decent, nothing memorable and wow-ed. I really wanted to like Silo Grill, given the spectacular views and ambiance, but I doubt I’ll return or recommend it to others after this very disappointing...
