    Cheese & Bacon Potato Skins
    Laleh H.

    Growing up, I had a Kelsey's in Thornhill within walking distance of my house. There were so many classics I loved and used to eat at so many different locations over the years. I soon started seeing a huge decline in quality & service and actually stopped going all together after the disastrous visits to their Markham Road location in Markham - which thankfully closed down because it was just horrible! Fast forward, to this year. It was our first visit back to a Kelsey's in just over 5 years. Our location of choice, this Kelsey's in Markham at Woodbine. It was my first time back to this location in almost 10 years. With plent of parking out front, it too no time to find a spot. Walked in with the fsm and we were seated within a few minutes near the bar. I love the cozy vibe here, music playing, tvs all around playing sports. Staff is very attentive and regularly checks in. Now let's get to the food! Fajitas - classic, love these, one of my fav places for fajitas - generous portion when not sharing, but they do have the option to double up your protein or add a second protein if you want to have chicken & steak. We ordered steak, the cut was seasoned well and cooked to the perfect temperature which left the meat very tender and easy to bite into. I def missed having these! 1/2 pan or Double pan Nachos - tortilla chips smothered with generous portions of three-cheese blend, queso, tomatoes, black beans, green onions, jalapeños, shredded lettuce, salsa, and sour cream. There is also the option to add beef chilli for an additional cost. This is a fam fav! Steak, Bacon & Swiss Sandwich - grilled sirloin, bacon and swiss cheese on a toasted Ciabatta bun with pesto mayo, tomato and peppercorn ranch sauce. Steak is super tender and seasoned so perfectly with a nice smoky flavour to the steak. The ciabatta bun is lightly toasted and has a nice outer crisp to it and soft on the inside. I have taken half a sandwich home many times and warmed it up in my small oven and the bread is so crispy, the best leftover sandwich! Build your own burger - double patty burger. Choose your bun, toppings and a side. I highly recommend their thick cut fries! The burgers are so juicy and never dry. Four Cheese Spinach Dip - served warm, with baked or fried pita chips. This is made in-house with a four-cheese blend, spinach, red peppers and onions. The fried pita chips are insanely good with this! Cheese & Bacon Potato Skins - Potato wedges topped with double smoked bacon, a three cheese blend and green onions. Classic potato skins, can't go wrong with this app! There are plenty of options for kids in their kids menu. Kids Hamburger, Mac & Cheese, Grilled Cheese Sandwich, Cheese Pizza, Chicken Tenders, Build Your Own Pasta, Rotini Pasta with Grilled Chicken. Each of these kids portions also come with choice of side, drink and chocolate or vanilla push pop (Ice cream). kids can upsize to a warm chocolate chip cookie with ice cream for $1.99 more. The service is consistently good. The servers are topping up drinks, asking if anyone needs anything, the franchisee is often there and checking in with guests to make sure everything is good. The portions are generous and the food is always fresh, this location has totally restored my love of Kelsey's! If you are a CAA member, you can save 10% off your meal and if you are a Scene Member don't forget to load your offer for Kelsey's in the app!

    One of the cleaner, and brighter locations. I've stayed away from this chain for several years...but in search of a Virgin Pina Colada someplace open late, we ended up here! An impromptu girls night out, brought us here. Food and drinks were delicious Servers were friendly Comfy booth seating Clean dining area and washroom Lots of tv's for sports fans Large, mall parking We will definitely be returning!

    Molson Canadian
    Randy D.

    Really cool place, cozy and relaxing atmosphere First time in cause I really wanted to try the salt and Vinny fish and chips. I love fish and salt and vinegar chips, what could be bad about mixing them together? Was seated immediately and given a menu. Ordered a Molson Canadian and the salt and Vinny fish and chips Beer was cold and refreshing, haven't had Canadian in a while. Fish and chips was huge, cooked perfectly and scrumptious. Tender, flaky white fish deep fried in a nice batter crusted with salt and vinegar chips. I can eat and I couldn't finish it all, toward the end I just ate the fish, was so good and so filling Service was great, constantly checked on me to make sure I was good, manager came by a couple times to see if everything was ok. Really nice place, will definitely be back if I'm the area again

    Steak stack... mediocre reviews

    I'd rather give a 3.5, but rounded up because the Kelsey's menu has gotten way better! A great selection of all three big hitters. Chicken, beef and fish! Portions could be bigger on some dishes, but otherwise quite tasty! Lots of non-fried dishes as well as solid sides (not just fries)

    Large wings. Hot honey and medium buffalo sauce

    Wing night on Thursdays with a beverage purchase. The wings were smaller than normal the night I went but could have been the luck of the draw. The wings were flavourful and crispy. The service was good and it was busy in the restaurant even on a slow sports night.

    Nachos with Cajun chicken
    Shigei H.

    It had been 2 years since we last visited Kelseys (another branch), it has its own uniqueness albeit being a chain restaurant. I didn't realise any change in menu items as all our favourites were there. It'd be a long wait on a Saturday evening if you didn't make any booking. We didn't get much attention from our server as she was too busy looking after many clients, however this Filipino lady was very welcoming and she came to us with bright smile each time. We waited for water for a long while as the server told they ran out of glasses! We ordered bbq sauce chicken wings, nachos with Cajun chicken, Sonoma salad, beef steak fajitas, all foods were tasty. Portion size is reasonable. This time we were too full to order desserts, otherwise their dessert cakes are always phenomenal, but they are only meant for those who don't care for calories! I always enjoy the casual dining experience in Kelseys.

    Location: Highway 7 and Woodbine by the Longos Parking: Freeeeeeeeee Parking Bonus: There's are Tesla charging stations in the parking lot. The Look: One of the first renovated Kelsey's to that new cool roadhouse/gastropub thing. There an outside patio are that's open in the summer. It's nice. Inside you can sit at the bar, there are tables, booths and table booth hybrids. . Food: Upper end pub food. Fish and chips, burgers, sandwiches, salads, wings . I think vegan wise you re stuck with salads, veg, you get to add pasta to the mix bit otherwise there's something for everyone. . My faves, unlike the fish and chips, sweet potato fries, clubhouse, they have a dish where you pick a chicken type and side. I like the boneless thighs with honey garlic on the side. . Staff: Friendly and nice, helpful and they pay attention to the tables. Cost; It's going for the nicer pub so the prices are reflective of that but the food is good and I think it's worth the price. (It's not even that muchore anyway) Will I be going again? Yes, yes I will. .

    I hadn't been to this Kelseys location in years. I finally broke that streak last Thursday. Kelseys had chicken wings going for 50% off when you order through its app. This offer was available last Thursday only. I decided to take advantage of the offer. I love wings. I used to frequent this location often over a decade ago. My friend lived up the road on Woodbine Avenue. We'd spend time eating, drinking, and catching up. It wouldn't be unusual if we were here for at least two hours. Ordering on the app was straightforward. I placed a large order of wings (15). My favourite are the non-breaded salt and pepper ones. In the past, non-breaded was dubbed New York-style on the menu. Perhaps that term didn't catch on. Maybe New Yorkers were offended and there was a movement to have breaded everything?! The app let me know that it would take twenty minutes to prepare my order. Sweet! It was enough time for me to casually drive up and fetch my food. This Kelseys is located at the Woodside plaza on Highway 7, a block east of Woodbine. The name still throws me off. I think of Woodside Mall in Scarborough. Anyway, this eatery faces Highway 7. Unfortunately, all box stores next to the eatery have since folded (Michaels, Pier 1 Imports, Bouclair, and more). It's a bit sad to see, but the cheerful lighting outside this restaurant helped a bit. There was plenty of parking. I pulled into a spot and walked in. I was immediately greeted by a woman. I indicated that I had a mobile order. "Mary, right?" she said. "Yes!" I said, feeling a bit shocked and like a VIP. "It's right over here. Come on over!" My food was in a sturdy paper bag with my name in huge letters. It was sitting at the bar counter. I grabbed my food and thanked the woman. We chatted for a bit. She was so happy to be working again. York region recently went out of full lockdown mode, so we can dine in and shop, with some restrictions. I saw a few folks dining. It was nice to see things looking a bit closer to what we used to do before this pandemic. I wished this woman a great evening. She reciprocated. I happily headed to my car and drove home. When I got home, I had dinner. Man, I have missed these wings! They are just the way that I like them. Crispy. Juicy. Flavourful. Yummy. I got a few sticks of celery and carrots. I believe Kelseys tends to be stingy on veggies with wings. The veggies were fine. My wings also came with a bottled drink. I got a Diet Pepsi. It tasted as expected. You can't really mess that formulation up in bottle format. The restaurant's app has many deals. It still has a 50% off wings deal, but it's for 10 wings and a four-cheese spinach dip. It's still pretty good! I had a great experience. I hope to return again soon. I may need my wing fix soon. (86)

    Since @kelseysrestaurants renovated this was our first time back. Overall, it was a decent meal, besides the renovation nothing much changed. The food did take a while to come but the restaurant was pretty packed, however our server was attentive so it balanced out. . Our girl loved the steak (over her kids meal) so it was a bonus for us. --------------------------- Classic Sirlion Fish and Chips Wings and Ribs Combo ---------------------------- Quality: Kids Liking:

    Meh. The sangria and gin jar we got barely had any alcohol, it sobered me up more than anything. The nachos were basic nachos. Service is okay. This is more of an affordable place than a good restaurant. I wouldn't go out of my way to come back.

    2.5 Star rounded up because of the $10 coupon in the mail I don't have high expectation with Kelsey's, especially after reading all these Yelp's reviews. With $10 off coupon in the mail, I decided to give this Kelsey's a try! The last time I was here was a long long long time ago...........The deco still the same? So it is kind of bringing back some memories... We ordered The Messy Fish Sandwich ($12.99) and Seafood Lover's Pasta ($16.99) which the waitress was more than happy to substitute the pesto cream sauce to tomato sauce. Food was quite standard. I doubt I would have pay full price for that as there are quite a lot of other choices at this price point! Service though was so friendly and efficient.

Sadly the service sucked, they were so slow in giving us menu, water, taking orders. No one checked up on us, and had to flag for the bill. I would come back once more to try their other dishes.

I love the Markham Marriott, the staff is always warm and welcoming. Draco has a very sleek, sophisticated and cozy atmosphere. We both ordered Bacon & Cheddar burgers. I opted for a Caesar salad as an appetizer and hubby ordered their Grilled Wagyu Flat Iron Steak. Let's start with the apps. The Caesar salad was SO good! I wish I had taken a pic, but admittedly, my phone was tucked away and I was caught up in the cozy seating, great food and Christmas vibes of the restaurant and lobby. Grilled Wagyu Flat Iron Steak: $33 - Buttercup Squash Puree and Truffle Oil - Everything you want Wagyu to be - tender, cooked to the perfect temp which left a nice warm red centre. This was melt in your mouth good! The burgers - these were perfection! Draco Bacon Cheddar Burger: $25 - Aged Cheddar with Crispy Bacon Strips; Crispy Onion Straws, Arugula and Garlic Aioli. This was a very well seasoned patty, so juicy and a substantial sized patty of fresh not frozen beef. The bun was lightly toasted, bacon crispy, easily taking this into my top 3 fav spots for burgers! Options for sides include fries, sweet potato fries, poutine, side Caesar or garden salad or truffle fries. We finished off our meal with 2 really good cappuccinos and just took our time before heading home. This was our first time back here in a few years. The food was exceptional as was the service and the warm staff. Draco is the perfect spot for an early morning breakfast, work or lunch date or a nice cozy dinner.

I should've just gone to a chain bar to be quite honest. The vibe wasn't bad in terms of music and set up. Im quite surprised the non-alcoholic drink my girlfriend got was over $10. It's just sugar syrup! The service is pretty poor as well. Once the drinks were dropped, we never heard from our server again. The bill came and we got charged 13-15% service charge. It was a bit unfair to be paying that when the menu didn't have any disclaimers about this charge whatsoever. Sketchy bar!

I would recommend Kimochii, Berry Lady and Snowball :) The staff hardly speaks English, so make sure you speak slowly and use simpler words. Bring a friend who can speak mandarin would be helpful. If you want one of those nice booths with white couches, the staff mentioned it is minimum spending of $300, but I'm not sure how it works if you have a larger group. Perhaps, the next UYE here?

The variety of colours was not matched with a variety of flavours, and everything was somewhat on the salty and greasy side. That being said, we very much enjoyed the potato hash, pancakes, and French toast. The portion sizes also outdid themselves - if you're coming here for brunch, just be prepared for a long nap in the afternoon! Service was excellent: prompt, helpful, and friendly. The interior is fairly spacious and elegantly decorated. Overall, a pleasant experience even if it's not the most spectacular - and perhaps worth a visit for some based on the aesthetics alone.
