The menu is good but somewhat high brow , but this is NOT a usual roadhouse . The decor is nice , clean and casual up scale a Schmidt , lots of vintage hanging light bulbs everywhere, I'm amused as I sold light bulb for 20 years ; so it was a bit like a bulb showroom . I enjoyed a hot and stacked Smash burger , I'm not so excited about the Brie cheese , a slice if local cheddar would be nice too , My wife had the Caesar salad with added grilled chicken thighs , yes interesting , she liked it . Driving to London , so no wine or beers today It could perhaps , if wanted by owner , "dumb down " the menu by adding a few understood dishes like garlic bread , chicken wings, , fish other than cod , But it's was a very pleasant place and very kind and easy waitress that served and was patient as we searched the menu

So, not a big reviewer so take it for what's it worth…read more We've been going to Zander's for quite a few years now, mostly for wing night, but not exclusively, last night for example. (But I still got wings ) Over the years it's been a bit of a roller coaster ride of ups and downs. At times, there's no place better in the city and at other times it's rather lack luster, just living on current reputation. Then at some point, the manager who seems to speak to everyone in the restaurant, but seems to not even recognize us, he realizes this and begins to turn things around. Currently we seem to be in a low spot, and here's why I think this. Mainly it's due to high turnover of staff. It seems there are new servers in week to week (probably not that frequently, but it seems that way). We remember seeing the same proficient servers week after week, now they're mostly all gone. The tall skinnier older guy (sorry I can't remember your name) is AMAZING and we hope for him every time. Sadly, we're left with the "new girl" and the service that comes with a new employee. It's an assumption that the staff just aren't treated well and that's why they leave, but could just be the restaurant industry. Lastly, food preparation has fallen below their norm. I ask for my hot Buffalo wings to be extra saucy and they NEVER are and the response I get is, the chicken wings absorbs too much of it. I ask for my wings extra saucy EVERYWHERE I go, no place else has a problem hitting the mark here. I also don't think whoever is cooking the food is tasting the food, these wings are NOT hot by any standards, I can say this because I eat a lot of chicken wings and a lot of hot wings are too spicy for me, these don't even reach medium temps. Nevertheless, the wings are tasty and I like them. Lastly, we often attend with a couple friends and one of them orders their wings extra crispy, when this happens, I too get my wings extra crispy, I don't particularly enjoy extra crispy wings :( Anyway, we're gonna stay away for a while I think and head over to Kelsey's, it's less convenient but has been far more consistent over time. Like I said, I'm not an expert here, so please make your own decisions, I just want the old Zander's back.

Super friendly staff who seated us in a booth. Only complain was that they had a fly issue, so many flies around our booth that kept on flying around our table and the table behind us. Waitress was quick to take our drink orders, we had ordered deep fried cheese curds for our appetizer and "The Great Canadian" in a small size which consists of marinara, maple syrup, pepperoni, mushrooms, peameal, mozzarella/ cheddar cheese and bacon served with a side of marinara sauce to dip. This panzerotti comes in 3 sizes - kiddie, small and large. The small was huge! Definitely a 2-3 person portion in my opinion. Took a bit of time for it to arrive since it is made fresh, worth the wait. Came piping hot, gooey cheese, lots of meat and lots of mushrooms. The breading was a bit on the crisper side, hard to cut in with the knife we were given. It was super filling, the two of us couldn't even finish it and had to take it to go. You can build your own panzerotti with each topping costing about $1.49 or you can get their recommendations which they will list out how many toppings are in their recommended panzerotti (beside it). In our case, the great Canadian had a total of 6 toppings so 6 x $1.49 each, etc. Plus the size of the panzerotti you chose (price varies). Overall, if you're in town you should definitely try it out, they have a seasonal patio out front, indoor dining and free parking on the premises. They also offer a variety of different foods, pizzas, wraps, steaks, burgers, pastas, lunch, breakfast, kids menu, alcohol, etc. They open from 8am every day.

It's not bad, just not my aesthetic. Waitress was immediately friendly and super amicable. She knew her regulars and had their drinks for them as soon as they sat down. Always a good sign. The food was delicious. I had the cod & chips. The cod was pretty good. Not the best I've ever had but I've had much worse. It was very tasty. The real star was the fries, however. Hand cut and perfectly blanched and fried. I seriously considered ordering more fries to go, they were so good. Definite recommendation to try.

My friend from Toronto was visiting Woodstock and I guess she has gone to several ESM restaurants…read morein the GTA. She has had a poor opinion of the franchise, however we ate at the Woodstock location and she was very happy & impressed with the food & service. It was very busy while we ordered but everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. The service was great. My friend had the ravioli, while I had the Mangia sampler. Home loafs & salads for both of us. The chef salad was a bit wet, but we enjoyed everything as well as the ambiance and atmosphere. I was hoping that the jays game was on but they had put the game the day before instead. Otherwise I would definitely go again. I would also pick ESM before Boston Pizza as we went there next day and didn't like it as much and it was not busy at all.

She let me try a fork full and I gotta say, it was the most horrible mash potatoes ever. It tasted chemically, like full of preservatves flavor.

Everything else was fine however, much to our chagrin, we were disappointed to learn that they do not serve coleslaw with fish and chips. Every other restaurant serves coleslaw slaw with fish and chips. We always had great meals in Crabby Joe's Stratford in the past but we felt a little put down this time.
