If you dont like not getting your moneys worth I dont recommend.
It was one of the only choices to eat on a Sunday afternoon in Jackman, otherwise we would have had an enjoyable meal had we gone to the other place we wanted to go.
The only waitress in the front was taking care of a large crowd when we got there. Not her fault being the only one up there, I blame stuff like that on management.
Heres my real issue. The "poutine" which was $10 was horrible. Whomever designed this dish at this place apparently has no idea what Poutine is. Intead of cheese curds it was just shredded cheese, which reallly made for a cheesy gooey mess. Who makes Poutine without cheese curds? The hand cut fries in the "Poutine" were actually undercooked. How do you undercook french fries? Bad, just bad thats how I would descibe it. A waste of $10.
Their special on the board for hamburgers was a "Ribeye Burger" . That sounded excellent. IT WAS NOT ! The burger which I ordered meduim rare was overcooked. Also when you think of a hamburger made from ribeye you would think nice and juicy right? WRONG! It was as dry as a bone. It also had a weird spice taste like someone mixed spices into the meat and not good spice, it was weird. My wife even commented that it smelled like spices before I even mentioned the taste. It was just barely border line edible.
My wife had the haddock snadwich which she said was actually good. Good as in not bad.
All in all it was a totally marginal meal. Their cooks clearly are not experienced. I felt like $54 was thrown down a hole....
Read moreAbsolutely the worst service I’ve ever experienced at any restaurant. The table next to us waited 30 minutes and nobody came over to ask if they needed anything, got up and left, the waitress finally came over not even knowing the other people left and said” I am sorry for the wait” OMG !! There was no more than 20 people in the restaurant and bar and with only 2 wait staff. This is reciprocal weekend for snowmobile operators coming from all over, shame on the OWNERS OF THE RESTAURANT, not the staff who was working that night. If you can’t staff your restaurant then don’t open. Others in the restaurant were in the same spot we were, waiting forever for someone to come over. We were in the restaurant for an hour and a half and had an appetizer and and a salad, fish dinner, and steak tips which were raw, ordered medium, didn’t dare send them back. And then the there was the to go order. A phone call was placed by a customer for a sandwich, customer was told 30- 40 minutes on the phone, came in and was told you have 2 more orders in front of you, another 20 minutes for a sandwich!! Again, shame on...
Read moreA gem of a roadside restaurant in snowmobile country. If you like fried foods, you are in heaven here. The breading on the haddock was thin, light, and crispy. The fish was very tender, and there are maybe 10 pieces of it in the basket ($17). The onion rings were from frozen bags but were fried just right: golden brown with no burnt taste or that hard shell you would find in other places. The French fries are made to order and also fried perfectly, especially if you like those crunchy, thoroughly fried through ones. You’ll definitely taste the potato and the grease when you bite it these translucent pieces. Whoever is in the kitchen today knows how to fry things!
The grilled chicken sandwich had a huge chicken breast and the French onion soup was baked well. The portions were all very generous, too.
The limoncello cake was light and not too sweet.
The staff was warm and friendly. The restroom...
