    Steak, mashed potatoes and asparagus was great. Cooked properly. Fish and chips was also very good, size and flavor. Butter chicken could have had a little more of the chicken with sauce but still tasty. Royal noodle bowl had good flavor but noodles ended up being clumped. Could maybe use a little chili sauce to keep them from sticking and add a little spice to the bowl. Had to use a cell phone light to read the menu but was ok once the food was ordered.

    Great meal again. Steak cooked perfectly. Chicken & Rib special was very tasty. Our Server "Ashley" was awesome. Very personable and attentive Tries another dessert...the Main Street Mocha Pie (Similar to the Keg's Billy Miner Pie). It was great, very filling and very rich.

    Nice atmosphere and a pleasant overall experience. The appetizers were very enjoyable and service was solid throughout the evening. My Cajun chicken main unfortunately wasn’t quite to my taste as the honey sweetness overpowered the dish a little. Overall still a good visit, although not quite as strong as I had expected — perhaps I just chose the wrong main this time

    The service was great. The food was good but nothing to write home about. I thought it was a bit overpriced for what we got. My friend asked for her steak medium and it was well done. Really, the very best part was the service. The server was great!
