Review: after waiting- 45mins. for a table
-10mins. for a menu
-10mins. for drinks
-25mins. for food
-10mins. for check
-5mins. for change
We (wife and I) realized that the poorly made food that was a giant heap of flavourless beef,overcooked,mushy vegatables,a small,overbattered peice of fish,presented on a crisp bed of multicoloured french fries,(not fresh)and instant potatoes were made for seniors with only half their teeth and zero taste buds left. Yet. Hence,the place was packed with seniors, who all seemed to be thrilled with their take-out containers.I guess to some, the value is in the quantity.
We waited far too long for "hospital food". My wife commented "they might not all have been seniors when they arrived,but the wait... - Order: fish and chips,roast beef,coffee,tea

Review: The food at Green Acres is great. The fish is the best I have ever had and the portions of meat on the sandwiches are enormous. We have been known to get a roast beef sandiwch to go and then buy rolls on the way home as there is easily enough meat on one to feed 2-3 people.
The decor is dated. Really dated. Like my grannys basement dated. Lots of weird plates and pictures with some kind of hobo/clown and huge 60s light fixtures.
But who cares? The food is what we come for, and the freaky decor is just something you have to put up with (or make fun of) to get to the good stuff.
If you come for supper, expect a wait. The fact that you have to wait should tell you how popular the place is with us locals. Lunch on the other hand has the same menu, same huge portions and no wait.
My only critique about the food is that they dont make fresh cut fries (frozen only) and/or fresh bread rather than the oftentimes stale dinner roll. Aside from that, you cant go wrong for the price.
- Order: Fish & Chips, Corned Beef Sandwich, Roastbeef Sandwich

Review: This was our first time there. We went on a Saturday around 6-6:30pm. Sat at the small bar area and stood outside for about an hour , hour and a half. After asking several different staff at the door when we would be seated. They told us a party was already finished with their take out containers done, but could not make them leave. That was about 45 minutes into our wait time. Finally we were seated, our waitress was not very attentive. She took our drink order, returned with 4 drinks but then it took another 10 minutes for the milkshakes. Then she finally came back to take our order. She started and got about 4 of us done then she rushed off to the kitchen to get another table their food order. She returned about 10 min later. The time now was almost 8pm, she finally returned with "sorry about that where did I leave off?" We finally got our food, we had to ask any passing waitress if they could get us some ketchup and napkins, because we couldnt find our waitress. She only returned near the end of our meal to then ask us if we wanted something else to drink. Which we replied no as the meal was almost done. We could not find her when it came time to pay, so we went up to the cash area and paid, and we told a gentlemen we assumed was a manager of sort, that the service was horrible, he apologized. We finally left the restaurant at 9:20pm, we were the last ones to leave yet people were seated way after our party. The food itself was extremely good.. Maybe the waitress was new?? We will be back I am sure as we live locally. Hopefully to a much more attentive waitress.
- Order: fish and chips, roast beef, hamburgers, milk shakes,

Review: I remember coming here as a child and loving it so we came here after a recent trip to Canada and was very dissapointed. The waitress was extremely rude and unattentive and never bothered to check on us after the food came. We waited for 25 minutes just to get a refill and a takeout container. The portions were good, but the food came out luke warm and the dinner rolls were stale. I would not make the trip back here again.
- Order: chicken fingers and roast beef sandwich
- Best in Fort Erie

Review: Every year we vacation at Crystal Beach and we always drive to this resturant. The food is home cooking comfort food and yes the portions are huge. We always have left overs for the late evening when we are relaxing at the cottage. Mind you, we always order the same thing every year so we haven't tried everything on the menu. The staff is always friendly and attentive. The best value for your money. We always look forward every summer.
- Order: Fish&Chips + Roast Beef + Chicken Fingers+ Burgers
- Just like home cooking

Review: Althought the mushroom soup was not up to standard, (too thick and floury, and a weird butter flavor) everything else made up for it and then some. The mashed potatoes tasted real, like mom's and the fresh baked squash was done perfectly. The ribs were amazing. I'll be eating here a lot. What a shame it's closed in the winter.
- Order: Baby Back Ribs, Liver and Bacon

Review: HEY PEOPLE NOTICE the negative reviews ? Each review said they were not happy but HEY ....each reviewer said they were given large portions! HELLO !!
I would rather leave a restaurant paying a fair price and a full belly than to leave paying too much and leaving hungry! I LOVE this place. Its busy for a reason.. and everyone usually leaves with a doggie bag. Single mom who really enjoys the price-the food-the staff - KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK GUYS ! - Order: Fish and Chips and on another visit the Roast beef and on another visit shrimp.
- best fish and chips ever

Review: First time in Fort Erie, this restaurant is enough to make us come back. Have fished for years and had many fish fry. Nothing like this place. Best ever. Large portions, great friendly service and great price.
Will tell everyone in Stoney Creek about this place. - Order: fish and chips, onion rings, cole slaw and desert
