Betty's Restaurant

BEST FISH IN ONTARIO!

Great food but service is a little bit of a dice roll.. a few ppl there seem to get disturbed by those not cased in a milky blanche exterior! Not surprising given the context of surroundings...

We had our wedding there a couple weeks ago and had the most delicious food ever. With our party size we were really afraid we werent going to have good service or anything. Coming from a family with many chefs we were scared that we were going to have some challenge but they proved us wrong. People raved about their food and thought the service was great. They even stayed open til 12 for us and served a fruit bar after for the guests. The price was great and we had no complaints since our wedding was five hours away from our homes. I would recommend Bettys to everyone who goes to Niagara falls region and will be back on our anniversary. They are awesome.

We had heard numerous rave reviews about Betty's food and service since we moved to Niagara. Finally found ourselves nearby and stopped in for breakfast. It was not very busy, only about 1/3 of the tables had customers. Menus and coffee came promptly, and the waitress took our order fairly quickly. Then we waited...and waited...and waited...over 20 minutes before our omelets arrived. The food was lukewarm, they used canned mushrooms for the omelet (disgusting) and they forgot the cheese altogether. The homefries were good, though. Nobody came to see if we wanted more coffee or how our meal was. Then we waited...and waited...and waited...over 15 minutes for the waitress to bring the check. We finally gave up and went to the cashier, the man asked us if we were still waiting for our bill and we said yes. He walked back and asked the waitress for the bill. The one he came back with was 30% more than it should have been because she gave him the wrong bill. Got the right bill finally and left in disgust. The man at cash never even apologized for the delay in getting our bill. Maybe they spent all their money on the new decor and had none left for fresh mushrooms or staff training.

I LOVE THERE PIES SO MUCH
there lemon merrang is amazing

Very unwelcoming, terrible service, did not value customer at all. This was booked in advance so they should have been prepared for our party size.

DH and I usually go to Betty's every couple of months. We hadn't been since February /08. At that time we felt the quality of the food was slipping however we decided to give it another to. I don't know if they are pinching pennies or have hired a new cook. The fish was tasteless and very heavy. Neither of us were able to finish it. Even the chips were tastless and undercooked.

I'm afraid we will not longer be attending Betty's.

I am a Born and Raised Niagara Region resident currently living in chippawa just around the corner from Betty's. Now I have been going to Betty's since I was a little kid, (now 19) and I am now enrolled in the Niagara Culinary Institute. I would sugest Betty's to anyone who wants a home cooked meal at and affordable price. They do have a couple issues, for example, Lately their food has been a little touch and go, One day we go for dinner and it is great. They live up to their "Famous" standards. However I believe that in an interest to deal with rising food costs in order to keep their cost low for their customers their food quality may be suffering a bit. And I'm sorry but their pies are known to be famous. Well i can tell you in my professional opinion that the fillings are pre made which leaves theses pies rather flavourless. Sorry Guys, but you need a new baker. Anyways, Give Betty's a chance, for the most part they are pretty good.

We used to go to Betty's 2-3X per month, but feel that the food quality in the past 12-18 months has deteriorated. French fries are often dark brown and unappetizing looking (new cooking oil please). Fish usually quite good no matter how it is cooked. Substitutions are discouraged unfortunately. Soups usually good though sometimes watery and tasteless. The famous 'homemade' pies are anything but - cream pies are the norm with Jello type custard and pretend whipped cream. All artificial flavours and simply prepared from a box. Disappointing.
The restaurant has been redone inside and looks very nice. Too bad the decor is the best part.

I won't write too much praise because you'll find plenty of it below. This is a great restaurant that locals of Niagara Falls are very fond of. One quick warning though, this is a restaurant that has fallen into a category of catering to senior citizen parties in the last few years. If you are ordering fish & chips, steak, etc. you are safe. But, you won't be taking your team here after the tournament, if you know what I mean. For example, this restaurant has the worst chicken wings in the entire city. Small and wizened, they look more like sparrow wings and taste as though you baked them at home in the oven. The soft drinks are served in pitifully small glasses and you will pay for every refill. If you're out for a homecooking dining experience, you'll have a fine time. Just don't expect any of the enjoyable excess you find in establishments catering to a younger crowd.

The service was fantastic! It was reasonably priced for the significant amount of food on the plate.
