The staff, including the owner, are all super friendly. We sat on the patio and were lucky to catch live entertainment by Jan/Blackhat, who had an excellent, soft voice and played great tunes on his guitar--very enjoyable. We were pleasantly surprised by a complimentary warm and toasty pita with excellent hummus, reminding us of how restaurants used to be. It was a delightful touch. I ordered the beef and lamb patties, which came with long-grain rice, roasted carrots, broccoli florets, and two sauces--tzatziki and a carrot/pepper spread. The patties were very tender and the dish was excellent. It also came with a delicious Greek salad. My wife had the vegetable moussaka, which she thoroughly enjoyed. Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience that we would highly recommend. Cheers

Chicken was dry but the rest of the bowl was good and flavorful. We also ordered the Tuna Poke Bowl: marinated ahi tuna, coconut rice, mango, sesame edamame, cucumber, avocado, pickled carrots, sliced radish, sesame seeds, green onion, sriracha aioli. I got it decompressed as I have dietary restrictions. Unfortunately the ingredients didn't seem fresh. Mango mushy, green onions brown, cucumbers dried up, carrots brown. We wanted refills on our beverages, but server was busy. By the time drinks were refilled and another pint was brought, we were done with our food. We still managed to tip the server. We were really hungry and disappointed with their food as we picked this place out of many since their Google reviews seemed high. They offered to remake our meals but we had to go.

What a fun little lunch venue! I was taking a tour of the Niagara falls area and my friend…read moresuggested we go eat here. I'm so glad we did because this is really a great place to stop. It's cool because not only do you have the inside of the restaurant to eat in, they also have an across the street seating which is serviced by a waitress. That is a great feature for those who want to sit alongside of the canal and enjoy the outdoors. We were seated right away, and our waitress came up and took our orders. My friend had the pulled pork sandwich and I opted for something a little healthier, which would be a strawberry salad with grilled chicken. It also came with a vinaigrette. The salad was absolutely lovely, the chicken was cooked to perfection, was moist and juicy, and that vinaigrette sauce combined with the strawberries was absolutely to die for. Overall. It was one of the better dining experiences I've had and I would highly recommend this place. Bottom line? If you are out and about down by the canal, you should do yourself a favor and check out canalside. It is definitely worth your time and a perfect way to relax, cool off, and sort out the rest of your day.

The best part is the view of the canal from the patio or from the front of the restaurant. When a boat goes by the lift bridge goes up, it is something very neat to see. There is also an Airbnb upstairs so you can have dinner here and head up to your room, all without losing that cool view.

I had the deep fried haddock (perch was the alternative), which I almost always get and is always very good. I'm a fan of coleslaw and Debb's is tangy - I should order a big side of it! My family always looks forward to going to Debb's when we visit Dunnville as part of our camping trip to Ontario, so we highly recommend Debb's.

We ordered a carafe of house wine and were pleasantly surprised at how good it was. I ordered the French onion soup and she had the soup of the day which was Minestrone. Both were very good. I thought we'd splurge and get the Brie appetizer which was unbelievable. I'm not generally a fan of Brie but this was served with garlic bread drizzled eithbalsamic and the Brie was cooked in a cast iron bowl with roasted cherry tomatoes, spices and oil. Yum! I ordered the Ragu and she had the chicken piccata. Both were excellent ! This will definitely be on our summer restaurant rotation in the future!

Service from the bartender was great. He offered up some suggestions, which I needed because they have a large menu loaded with so many appetizing and amazing looking options. I started with their potstickers... They came out with a hard, fried shell and the dipping sauce went nicely with them. Enough to share, or even enough to enjoy and still have room for an entrée. My main dish was their Chicken & Waffle. This isn't some ordinary chicken and waffle, it's definitely an amped up version, made with unique and interesting ingredients, culminating in great flavors! The chicken was so large and very tender - it was amazing! The bacon and sauce on top went with it nicely, and the chive waffle was great with it! Each bite was definitely amazing! This was a great experience, I can see why they have so many reviews and such high stars, those are well-deserved stars!! Definitely recommend stopping in here!

We had our dog with us so we only planted to get carry out, and then we discovered a shaded patio. We decided to stay and eat outside. I was standing at the host stand for quite a while because I hadn't noticed the seat yourself sign. I had also walked in the restaurant and was looking around for any employee - two servers at a table saw me standing there looking confused but then just went right back into the kitchen. When another guest pointed out the sign, I thought well that's great but if we want to sit outside will they ever know we are there. Someone finally returned to the bar and we were able to get a server. We ended up ordering three appetizers - skoat balls, cheese sticks, peach Burrata. All three good. I also ordered a blueberry mint mocktail beer that was actually quite disappointing. It was also quite a charming little town! Would like to go back again sometime, sadly that is unlikely to ever happen.
