“Best Veal Sandwich....Period!“

“My son and I dine at the Victoria Street Kitchener Swiss Chalet location most Fridays for dinner. Sue is our most favorite server who brings us lots of laughs and is an excellent server. Lina is the manager at this location who is very hard working, always helps in the dining room, and always gets customers seated promptly. All the other servers are also very friendly and very good at what they do. Food is always hot and fresh. Best ribs in town. This is our favorite Swiss Chalet location by far.“

“DELICIOUS. Wait staff were attentive and very friendly, able to answer all of our questions. We'll definitely be back! I also loved that there was hand sanitizer on every table.“

“We really enjoyed our lunch today celebrating my grandmas birthday. The service was fast, friendly and the food was delicious! Definitely will be back.“

“Great service, pleasant staff, fun atmosphere and delicious food. What more do you want in a classic diner? Had a wonderful dining experience and will definitely return. Paige was our server she was so amazing, food was awesome!! 5 stars for sure! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍😋“

“amazing food, wonderful vibe and great service!!“

“Had a great time, Hector our waiter was fantastic.,food was fantastic“

“Only issue, Home fries are still deep fried, would expect them to be cooked properly on a griddle considering its a breakfast place. Nothing like the Hamilton location. Been at this location many times this time I saw my server twice, once when I was seated, next when I got my food. It wasn't busy many open tables, no refills on coffee had to flag down the manager to pay my bill. Quality is definitely going downhill as opposed to what it was 2 years ago“

“Great food and amazing drink options with live music on Saturday!“

“This place is VERY friendly, GREAT food, reasonably priced, and has always been a good venue either for a casual meal with family or friends, or as a meeting spot for colleagues and I to do working strategic planning meals together! LOVE THIS PLACE! HIGHLY recommend it 👌 👍 'The Long Bearded Guy' & JEWIL International“

“Amazing food. Great atmosphere. Lots of vegan options. Friendly service.“

“Coming from an English family and background, I am a bit of a fish and chips snob. This place makes the best fish and chips in the region. We order white fish as it has a very mellow taste equal to halibut, but less expensive. We feed 5 people 2 big pieces of fish and chips for $56“

“We had Sunday brunch and it was enjoyed by all. Great biscuits. Friendly staff.“

“The food here is amazing! Everything's fresh and very tasty. We highly recommend Shawarma Star! ☆☆☆☆☆“

“Excellent chicken shwarma!! Great service and the routine was good also“

“Wonderful AYCE sushi! Definitely worth a try, sushi was fresh and tasty!“

“I’m giving this five stars based on the price. Where else can you get an all beef foot long hot dog or pork sausage on a fresh bun, with a large soda, with a refill, for so cheap? Currently only $1.50. You must be a Costco member to enjoy. You order at the kiosks and grab your order when it’s called from their walk up counter. Other food options include fries, pizza, soft serve ice cream, all reasonably priced, but the hot dog w/drink seems to be the best deal. Ask for onions on the side and you’ll get a tiny container of chopped onions too! The seating area is very limited and you’ll need to clean off a table if you’re lucky enough to snag one. (I use a packet of their vinegar w/napkins to clean).“

“Freshest tastiest made to order, delicious sushi. They use the best ingredients, golden dragon and dynamite rolls and try the crevettes we have been back numerous times and it is always the best consistent high-quality sushi.“

“One of the best Indian restaurants in Kitchener great food great service“

“I'd gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today. JK 😜
I paid for a burger that was absolutely huge and worth every penny. I have also had other meals and they have all been delicious.
It's our go-to place when we travel between home and Cambridge.“

“We have been going to the Metro since 1980 and have never been disappointed. The servers are always friendly and very accommodating. The best schnitzel ever. Food is always hot and delicious. Shout out to Brittany and Adam for the great service and wonderful meal last night.“

“Saturday aft and it was packed but didn't have to wait.
Service was top notch. They are friendly and keep coming to ask if you need something, if you like thr food. It was pretty fast too.
Ordered mango salad with shrimps, minced shrimp on sugar cane, beef bermicelli and a thai coconut soup with chicken.
Everything was delicious. Loved the soup specially. The minced shrimp was the only thing we didn't care for.
We ordered more of the free tea and they happily brought more!“

“10/10 the food is amazing & the staff is even more amazing!

10/10 gluten free burger - they have a dedicated gluten free FRYER for french fries (which is so hard to find) as well as separate condiment area’s & serving utensils to avoid cross contamination! This is one of the only places that I feel 100% safe eating at, having celiac disease“

“Amazing restaurant, food and staff. Best shawarma I’ve ever had. Get the shawarma fries plate it’s the best!!“

“At first when you got a bowl it was filled to the lid, then it was down to the lone 1/2 inch below the lid now it’s 1/2 inch below that line. Saving money? Not sure but the value is going down hill with the shortage on the greens or rice“

“The food was delicious but a little on a higher price side. Service was good and the food came out in good time but not instantly. A good sign that it's made fresh. Certainly the taste of the food indicated that as well. There wasn't anything we ordered that we were unhappy with. The sesame seed balls and cheung fun rice rolls were delicious and one of the best we've had. The siu mai are really large. There is a charge for tea. The place has a typical and traditional Chinese restaurant vibe. A good amount of parking can be found around back. We would come back to this place!“

“Ordered tonight!!!! Amazing!!! Soooo good!!!“

“Nothing tasted fresh I struggled to finish the items we ordered. The crab salad had a rotten fish taste to it the sashimi was not fresh the salmon was coming apart when you picked it up the fish seemed to have a taste resembling being improperly frozen for too long.The presentation was terrible like cafeteria style. It was cheaper than all the other AYCE sushi restaurants...but for a reason it is the lowest quality in the K W area. We actually left still hungry on a positive note the waitress was really nice.

“I stopped by this coffee shop today and was pleasantly surprised! The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming — a perfect spot to relax or get some work done. I found out it’s under new ownership, and you can really tell they’ve made some great changes to better serve their customers. The coffee was rich and smooth — definitely coming back for more!“

“We had lunch here. The service was spot on. The food was very good!! it is 5 mins from our place, and after 7 months here, we finally checked it out. I have been to a couple of other Casey's and was too impressed, so it took a while to go back to another.“

“Not only are the burgers here simply succulent, but the employees are incredibly kind as well. The restaurant would be the only thing standing within a war-zone of blood-curdling screams, as all who know about this place value it like it’s their own families and would protect it with their life. This place is incredibly iconic, and many people know it due to just how great and deserving of its fame it is. Would recommend any day, it’s absolutely a must try restaurant!

(P.S the poutine is awesome.)“

“Server Tanya was kind, very time efficient and knew how to tlak to their customers!!

We had the burgers (classic), chicken bowl, buffalo wrap and various drinks, all were delicious.

A highlight was the vinaigrette for the side house salad, very delicious.

Many thanks yous Tanya“

“Unbelievable! Thank you everything was delicious 😋“

“Ordered a Combo 7 and Combo 2, with some extra egg rolls (the combos already come with it, i just ordered some extra for myself!), sweet and sour shrimp, and sweet and sour pork wontons! really good for the price and really tasty food. Definitely coming back! this is my family’s favourite place and definitely in my opinion, the BEST chinese food in all of kitchener-waterloo!!“
