“Our experience at this location is always superb! Mostly because of the excellent service from our regular server, Lynn. She is friendly, knows everything about the menu, efficient, and really makes the customer feel important. The food is great as well. The great experience really comes from Lynn. Highly recomended!“

“Great food and service every time!“

“Natalia was an attentive server. The calamari was grossly over cooked. I am actually surprised they even served it! Was deep brown and harder than shoe leather. Natalia brought it back to the kitchen and they gave us a properly cooked appetizer with an apology for the longer wait. An inconvenience truth.“

“KELSEY WAS THE BEST SERVER I HAVE EVER HAD. She was so honest down to earth and honestly all around best. She is very thoughtful as well. If you thinking about having Kelsey’s go for Kelsey (😊😊). Kelsey working at Kelsey’s means she meant to just be a manager or even and owner at this location. Best service ever. If Kelsey is working I will be in because like I said best service ever!!!!! Thank you Kelsey“

“Maria was an amazing server. We needed to be in and out quickly, and she was so accommodating. Our food was brought out promptly, and she checked on us often to make sure everything was to our liking. She even gave us a sweet christmas card. Will definitely come back again, highly recommend.“

“We are a family with 3 celiacs. There are so many gluten free options. Staff are very knowledgeable about cross contact precautions. The food was absolutely delicious. We loved everything we ordered. The serving sizes were good. The staff were so kind and friendly. We will be back for sure. This place is a gem. Thank you.“

“Safia went above and beyond to make my Harvey's experience a great one. I told her that the last time I ordered poutine I was a bit disappointed and she made sure my poutine was the best I ever had. Safia is a gem and is the reason I would come back to this Morningside location. Protect her at all costs! 😊“

“This service at this location is why i keep coming back! I stopped in to try the Thanksgiving meal, and it did not disappoint. The food was fresh, neatly packed and exactly what I was hoping for. I decided last minute to grab a few extra pies and the young lady at the counter made it super easy and had me helped right away without any hassle“

“We went to Symposium for our anniversary and what an amazing night! Our server Jaime was beyond amazing. Extremely welcoming and fantastic customer service. I recently came home from a trip in Bermuda and asked the bartender to make me a 'Bermudian Rum Swizzle' and Sawan did not disappoint! He nailed it right on the pin! The food was delicious and compliments to the chef! We also indulged in their tiramisu cake as our dessert and my goodness, the flavor! So fresh! All in all, an extremely wonderful night thanks to Jaime and Sawan!“

“Jim was our server and he was absolutely accomodating to our group of 30 people. He was patient with our orders and kept checking in on us to make sure food and beverages were flowing. He is a very hard worker and we appreciated his efforts.“

“The absolute worst customer service I have EVER experienced. Inadequately trained servers, the "manager" definitely could use some serious customer service training AND training with the payment system as he struggled with processing our bill. The food was served cold. We order a Chicken BLT wrap just before our meal ended To-Go and after waiting over 50 minutes for our takeout, we were told the takeout was busy with takeout orders for customers?? excuse me?? what are we?? We had just ordered 2 bar drinks, an appetizer and 2 main entres, so I guess we are not a customer. Unbelievable!! And then the manager proceeded to be combative with us when we began to rightfully complain. No apologies, no discount, nada! No surprise this place has a low rating...THEY'VE EARNED IT! 👎“

“We came with a large group for lunch. Soumela served us and was so professional, polite and accommodating of our large group with people who have exceptionalities. We appreciate the time and effort she put into our large reservation.
Thank you so much :)“
