I regretted ordering food pretty immediately, as I watched the staff prepare orders while I waited. In the unreasonably long time it took for a hot dog, fries, and hamburger to be made, I witnessed two embarrassing altercations between staff members, and saw a staff recovering from a nose bleed with a tissue in one nostril (and still behind the counter?!). The fries and microwaved hot dog were fine, but the hamburger was inedible. My friend described it as the worst burger she has ever had. We honestly weren't sure if it was beef. This place is clearly a tourist trap. Unfortunately, we didn't have Internet at the time to be able to check Yelp. Maybe the ice cream is okay (we didn't try it), but stay away.

We were staying real close to La Belle in Victoria so we got it to-go the night we got in. This La Belle isn't the best for sitting in, very few chairs and the ambience isn't great. So we took ours to go. Mine one qualm is the to-go vehicle - the fries got really soggy before we got to the house because of the steam and how tightly they packed it. Now don't get me wrong, the gravy and the curds, on point as per usual! Just wish the fries still had some crispiness to them still. If they had abit more of place to sit, we for sure would have just eaten in to maintain the integrity of the pout. Was I still satisfied? Yes. Maybe they can switch to a better to go vehicle. At the Davie location they served my poutine in a cardboard box that could breathe a bit better. Recommend switching to that if possible!

They're located in the same plaza as Turtle Island Fish & Chips and Harbour Scoop Ice Cream. We dropped in on a Friday afternoon (around 3:15pm). The inside is tiny but there's a couple tables outside to sit at. From what I could gather, it appears to have changed ownership. Hence the addition/assortment of random Asian food. The menu is small with about 20 options; sandwiches, poutine, hot dogs, dumplings, ramen and beef/chicken teriyaki. - Philly cheesesteak and fries ($10.99) - this is not a real cheesesteak so keep that in mind. At least the beef wasn't overcooked and there were a couple pieces of mushroom and grilled onions. The fries were terrible; dry, tasteless and reminded me of McCain fries you buy from the grocery store. Nothing particularly exciting about HC but prices are cheap. 2.5 stars.

The server told me there were no seats available even though I could see one seat at the bar/window. Disappointed, I asked if I could order to-go and was directed to the owner behind the till. I told her that I really enjoyed the burger I'd had on my first visit so wanted to order the same thing. 'THAT IS NOT THE RIGHT BURGER, START OVER!!' I was completely taken aback by the condescending tone. Once my order was entered, she handed me the payment terminal so I could pay and walked away. When she returned, she didn't look at me, instead focused on the payment terminal. Then she looked at me and hollered "NO TIP!! SERIOUSLY!! After we put you in front of all these other people!" This was said in front of the entire restaurant which was completely embarrassing and humiliating. I was totally shocked! As someone who has worked in restaurants and tourism around the world I always tip - even on take-out orders!! The exception is when I get bad service. How would I have known that I was 'put in front of other customers?' I don't work there and it's irrelevant! TIPPING IS DISCRETIONARY, especially on a take-out order. A prudent, professional owner wouldn't comment if a guest didn't tip - or, would ask if there was a problem with the service. The burgers might be top-tier, but the owner's rude behavior makes this a zero-star experience
