When I walked inn I was a little concerned, the atmosphere was country charm and at the time not very busy which normally is not a good sign...that all went away shortly. Prompt, friendly service paired with incredibly delicious "schnitzel house meets world" cuisine that will have you waddling out the door happy.... Washed down with an ice cold beer... I'd say you have a winner!! Normally I'd indicate at the end of the review "we'd be back" but we already have and it was just as good!! Make sure you get a reservation because both times it got packed! Thank you Veky's, See you soon!! Zeke

It had a tasty broth, thick, long as spaghetti noodles, corn, carrots and broccoli, and large pieces of chicken. The portion was so large I couldn't finish it. I had also ordered a BLT on brown bread. The bread was not overly toasted. The sandwich was tasty. My husband had ordered the club sandwich with homemade french fries. Instead of turkey, ham was used. Surprisingly tasty. It was so nice to have fries without that chemical flavouring. They were so fresh tasting. The price for the lunch was quite reasonable. The service was fast and friendly. The rest of the menu looked to be full of comfort food. We'll definitely stop in again. As a note, they only take cash or debit.

They serve a good brunch buffet on weekends - great for starving university kids like us. Their offerings have changed each time we went, though that may have been because it was a Father's Day one of those times. I've seen barbecued chicken, ribs, during weekend brunches etc. Some weekday dinner meals include an unlimited salad bar (eg. Senior's meals and hot turkey/beef dinners). The salad bar is limited, there was lettuce, with the choice of either 'Catalina', 'Strawberry Poppyseed' and Ranch dressings. Sliced hardboiled egg, pickles, various potato/pasta salads were also available at the salad bar.

Went with family to check out the Sunday breakfast buffet. Decent spot with adequate seating and…read morefriendly service. Waiter was prompt and returned to the table quickly. The buffet isn't setup like a typical buffet as some items are in hot trays behind the bar where the server has to put everything on our plate. This wasn't so bad as she was very courteous and helpful however I was not impressed with the buffet food. The bacon was a 1 out 5 very fatty and unevenly cooked. Potatoes weren't crisp and I would say 10-15 items outside of the salad bar and dessert. I didn't have the prime rib but I was told it was decent. French toast soggy - it was $15/person which I felt was overpriced for the food quality. We would have appreciated water at our tables but they did come around with coffee refills a couple times Salad bar was above average with fresh items and a nice variety of dressings and fixings to choose from. Dessert table consisted of 1 or 2 homemade items with the rest being packaged baked goods and cakes. Plus side there was pitchers of juice so that isn't considered an extra but I ordered a juice before we said we wanted the buffet and had to pay extra for that , alas you can do your own whip cream! Wouldn't go back unless it was a plated breakfast or maybe to try the dinner but not for a while

Magical little vegan girl powered bar/restaurant in Waterloo…read more There is street parking around. Cool environment on a hot day. Sunlight from the windows coming during the day. Staff is very friendly and helpful. I went for lunch, but there are djs the evening. Loads of vegan options. I ordered a Caesar salad and chick'n burrito (which was grilled). Both good. My standout was the cocktail I ordered: abracadabra. Rum, matcha, lime juice... refreshing, well balanced. I ordered two! I'll be back for sure.

Mac & Cheese was good and a decent portion. Their fries are awesome, well done, very crispy, seasoned well. Both steaks were ordered Medium, but were both closer to medium rare. Both guests didn't enjoy them but I tried both and they were OK. Not great, but just OK. Fish & Chips was great, came with tartar sauce and a blue cheese dip for the fries. We had the cinnamon bun bread pudding with vanilla ice cream for dessert, this was really good. Overall the food was good and the service was fantastic. Even so we probably wouldn't come back given the other options in the area.

I ate there 3 times in 2 days - twice for breakfast and once for a group dinner. The servers are more busy talking to one another than taking care of customers.

The reservation booking process was very easy, we simply reserved our spot a few hours before we arrived on open table. The restaurant is quite intimate. It is a smaller space that is decorated nicely. For the entree I had the short rib gnocchi which was sooo amazing. I would come back just for the gnocchi alone. The meat was super tender and the gnocchi were soft and suited the dish well. Both cocktails that I had were great and they were only $9, which I found quite reasonable. The server has very attentive and checked in on our table an appropriate amount. I hope to come back here again if I am ever in Waterloo.
