Via-Mar Grill & Bar - Cantina — Restaurant in Ontario

After a full weekend of bad food, this was a sight for sore eyes (and bellies 😅)! Met with fellow colleagues here for dinner after a home inspectors convention. We were seated immediately on a Saturday evening in a full restaurant with multiple parties. The chips were so fresh and came out immediately. The salsa tasted as though it is home made, the bean dip had just the right amount of kick. I ordered the shrimp tacos with a carne asada taco a la carte and a chile relleno. The meat and shrimp were seasoned so well (something that is not common in Tennessee), the corn tortillas held all the juicy goodness without falling apart or ripping! Everything was piled high but I did not leave feeling as though I was going to explode-thank goodness! The shrimp tacos had a mango salsa topped with cabbage and mild sauce that kept me wanting another bite. The carne asada was perfectly tender and melted with each bite (I wish I got a picture of it). My only complaint is the chile relleno was a bit soggy and not quite was I was expecting. It wasn’t gross, but I probably won’t get it again-texture thing for me. I had a blended margarita that did not taste of straight tequila, but I could taste the lemon and the salt around the rim completed the drink! A great atmosphere that we could hold a conversation in. My meal was $40 after tip because of the drink and extra items. Thank you for a great experience, I wish you...

After a 18 hour flight that got delay I Huston due to weather conditions I atayed at the motel 6 got there at 820pm sat at the bar order my food and drinks after 45 min of waiting for my food and seeing that other tables that got there way after I did were getting their food I asked how much longer on my food and that's when I was told that the bar tender forgot to enter my order so I just told him to cancel it that I would go somewhere else he offer to give me a free drink but I refuse I was hungry not thirsty some other guy that was standing at the bar I'm assuming was the owner or manager said food would be out in 2 min but I told him I was leaving he did offer to give the food for free I refuse It that was not my intention what got me upset is the fact that they knew he forgot to place my order and he willingly decided to not say anything and disposed of my time like it was nothing so I left. All they had to do is let me know as soon as they realized that had happened they should of said listen I forgot to submit your order but I'll talk to the cooks and speed it up will not be going...

My car broke down. Buying a used car with 87k miles on a motor from Detroit known for developing a warped engine block made me exhausted, tired from delays of Uber driving home every day. A friend realized how frustrated I was and volunteered to pick me up from work and drive me home with a short stop at a local steak house to get some food and brews. Turned out the steakhouse was closed, 30-minute wait...? Well... bye! Asked Google for a local place that had a bar and grill to parch my thirst and soothe my lugubrious heart about the purchase I made on a car with a notorious record. Arrived here at Via-Mar Grill and Bar. Not bad. Not bad at all. Lots of room, tables, booze, brews, and food. Friendly atmosphere, lots of locals waiting to engage in great conversation, and share food with you to show how good it is. Lots of bragging and cheering when the Karaoke bar opens up and the staff is friendly and ready to get you another brew or burrito. I will definitely stop by again to enjoy the $7 tall glasses of beer and lobster. I encourage you to come...
