The wait was an hour on a Saturday night so we opted to return for a late lunch/early dinner the following day, which was perfect. The restaurant was moderately full and there was great live music.
The menu had so many things that we wanted to try so exercising restraint was tough! But, we did. We got the PK poutine app, the whiskey bbq burger, short rib grilled cheese, and grilled chicken strips for the little one. To drink, I had the cookies and cream shake and my husband did the "make your own old fashioned". The little one had pineapple juice.
The kids meal came out fast, which is always appreciated. The chicken was grilled and very moist. They substituted her fries with corn with no issue. The poutine had smoked cheddar mornay, pork belly, sour cream, and chives. I would say that this was just ok. There was a large portion of fries and the toppings were not proportionate. Many fries had nothing on them.
Our entrees were better than the appetizer. The short rib grilled cheee was excellent! The meat was tender and flavorful, there was plenty of cheese, and the bread was not soggy. With the peppers and onions, it reminded me of a Philly cheesesteak. The burger was also really good. I got the shake without alcohol and it was thick but not overly rich.
Service here was good, as was the ambiance. We liked that they had a kids menu, which came with crayons and activities on the paper. The poutine left much to be desired and a $4 upcharge for what appeared to be frozen sweet corn instead of fries as the burger sseemed unnecessary.
