The Lodge Kitchen & Bar Reviews
A group of us met there on Friday, December 12 for a casual reunion. Some of us ordered food. Three of us ordered the French Onion Soup and found it to be awful. It was thick like a gravy and seemed to have something like Bisto added to it. Very disappointing. I also ordered a regular caesar. Again, very disappointing. It was definitely missing something. The worse offense of all was the AUDACITY that this restaurant had in adding a 18% gratuity onto the bill. First off, tips...read full review
Excellent dinner at the Lodge on Oct 18. Relaxed and pleasant atmosphere. Had the Hunan Chicken bowl and Portabello mushroom burger - both delicious. Attentive, friendly service from Jay. Will definitely return.
We've tried. We really want a decent restaurant within walking distance. Nothing here ever works.
This time we tried brunch. Arrived at 11:30. There
Were 3 people one the restaurant and one person working.
Service was incredibly slow. Had to ask for
Water and coffee.
Food was cold upon arrival (breakfast poutine served in a cold skilled - cheese not melted, just bad). The Benny and skillet were heavy on the mustard sauce - we both scraped it off....read full review

Based on the reviews, The Lodge Kitchen & Bar offers a unique style, excellent food, and tasty cocktails, providing high dollar quality at neighbour pub prices. The atmosphere is super great and cozy, with decor that helps dampen the noise level, making it a very pleasant place even when busy. The music is at a perfect level to hear but not require speaking over. The staff is very friendly, with skilled and engaging servers. The cocktails are skillfully crafted with excellent variety. Specific meals mentioned include the fondue, gyoza, tuna tostada, duck wings, and French onion soup, all described as amazing and excellent. The kitchen handles dietary needs without fuss. For a birthday, the chef went above and beyond to reconstruct a damaged cake, a very kind and thoughtful gesture. The management and owner are helpful and kind. All in all, it is a great experience and highly recommended.
