  • We gave this place a chance and thought it couldn't be too bad as it is right near downtown Stratford with its range of excellent eateries.

    Oops - wrong. Totally uninspired in every way. Do they play up the "Diner" theme? No. Is it at least cheap? Not especially. Is there interesting music? Ugh, no - classic "lite" rock.

    And they were actually out of buns for the burger I ordered - which would have been entirely flavourless if not for the condiments (which I had to ask for as they don't have anything except for white vinegar on the tables.

    Do yourself a favor and walk a couple hundred extra meters to York Street... or Tango... or Features... or Sirkel...

  • Order: Grilled Cheese, Burger, Fries

  • This was the worst beef dinner I ever had, tough hardly cut it with knife. desserts were so small you thought we ate at a 5 star restaurant. The place was dirty, and Joe was too.We probably wont be back.Cost was too much for what you got served.

  • We sat down at a table with the place about half full, and were ignored by the serving staff. No water, menu, not even a hello.

    The server walked by us 3 times, then proceeded to bus other tables and reset them.

    We left.

  • Order: never got to

  • The portions were too small for the price. Rice wasn't cooked enough. I found hair in my cabbage roll.
    Discusting place, no wonder they went out of business and were replaced by Joe's Dinner (but even they aren't very good either).

  • Order: Chicken breast with rice and corn. Cabbage rolls with rice and corn
