My Place Restaurant — Restaurant in Smiths Falls

This restaurant is a true gem. Absolutely unpretentious, brilliantly done Czech comfort food at the price of some salads that I've had in restaurants I've enjoyed infinitely less than this one. The service is friendly, efficient and professional.

This is comfort food in something along the lines of a treasured diner environment. I always get what I refer to as the "Half Acre of Schnitzel". You hear the hammer (I refer to it as being "The Hammer of Happiness) pounding the cutlet in the open kitchen. It arrives too hot to dig into without waiting at least a couple of moments. The great family team that delivers it is a joy to be around.

I live thousands of kilometers away but make a point of traveling there on a regular basis because of the food and the experience.

I've traveled extensively, for decades, through every province and territory in the country and around the world. On any given evening, if I'm thinking of where I'd really like to go, there's pretty much a 100% chance that My Place will enter my thoughts, regardless of how far...

January 2019 : Back for another family meal at My Place!

I tried the Ginger Carrot soup and it had just the right amount of heat and flavour.

For my main, I enjoyed the meatloaf - wrapped in bacon! - so tasty!

Carrot cake and coffee finished my meal! I had to bring half of my delicious dessert home, but that's OK! I like snacks for later!

I added more pictures for you to drool over! Highly recommend My Place!

NOV 2018 : We went for a family lunch to My Place - first time for us, second time for those joining us.

I enjoyed the Cream of Cauliflower soup, followed by a Smoked Sausage main - oh my! - while everyone else ordered different schnitzel. I sampled from their plates - what tasty flavours all around!

We had coffee and dessert afterwards, and were stuffed to...

The order was expensive because we ordered 3 gypsy platters and 4 desserts. So the price wasn't a problem.

I love Eastern European food with all my heart (food wise) my family is Hungarian I'm first gen Canadian. Tried the gypsy platter the schnitzel was great and so was the sausage, the rest made no sense. Schnitzel doesn't come with tartar sauce and a lemon, the potato dumpling is not a side served with schnitzel none of the sides they have really are. Sauerkraut was pretty good. Apple strudel was a flop, because the lady who took my order said we have freshly baked strudel and then gave me a piece made earlier from the fridge. I've heard a lot of hype about this place and maybe got myself too pumped up. Not too sure I'll eat...
