Came here to watch a football game. This casual restaurant has a happy hour twice a day with discounted apps and drinks. We need that in this economy! The crispy chicken bites were $12 during happy hour, I'm not so sure that's a steal, but it's also not pricey for eating out. The zero proof dragon fruit lemonade was standard for the place I was in and for $5. I'd expect better if I were at a higher end place. We didn't know the kamikaze was a shot until it came out, it really should be more clear on the menu. Would have got a beer if we knew. They close earlier some days of the week, which means you can't finish the game there and have to bar hop, which may not be the worst thing if you like moving. read more

Kelsey's food - especially their smash burger quesadilla and chicken wings are a SMASH hit in my books. You can get them breaded or not. The actual seating could be more comfortable as well as trying to flag down the server could be improved upon, but the overall atmosphere was delightful and warming in nature! read more

Came here mid-day on a Sunday. Restaurant wasn't very busy but it seemed that there was only one server on. This led to slow service and we didn't get our drinks until we had already been sat for 20 minutes. The food was good. I had the steak n' cheese stack with a side of fries. I felt that there was too much tortilla and not enough of the steak & cheese. They also didn't ask how I liked my steak prepared and it came out medium-well. Not my preference but this made the steak chewy and I would have preferred it made medium. The messy cookie sandwich was absolutely delicious. The cookie was warm and topped with icing sugar, chocolate fudge, and caramel syrup. The wildberry rose sangria was also sweet and really hit the spot. Would be a perfect summer patio drink. Overall, I wouldn't order the steak n' cheese stack again but Kelsey's is a classic family restaurant with decent dining options. read more

I've been to quite a bit of Kelsey's locations in the past, but unfortunately, I can't say that this was the best experience. The food was just all right, I've had the spinach dip so many times in the past, but for some reason it was very dry when went. We also always order the deep-fried naan, and it seems as though they were left in the fryer a little too long, because they were very very tough, dry and difficult to eat. The sweet potato fries and wings were all right. read more

Fabulous food! I love their smash burger quesadilla! Yum! The calamari was tender and had a lovely Aioli sauce. The service was great! Very attentive. I will definitely go back. read more

Arrived for lunch around 1pm (Wednesday) with 2 adults and 1 child. The restaurant wasn't busy and we were seated right away. Service was rather slow but super friendly. Food was OK -- pretty average. However, the amount of salt on the fish and chips was a bit crazy (see it in the pics) Haven't been to Kelsey's in years and won't be in a rush to go back. read more

Haven't been here in ages but decided to come in for the half price wings on Thursday. Our server was super sweet and really attentive. We got the half nachos and it was more than enough for a group of 3. I would recommend the thai sauce for the wings, good amount of sweet and spicy and one pound was a great size. Would definitely recommend the half price deal! read more

We decided to go there Kelsey's Scarborough for my birthday as we had a gift card for 100.00. We were a party of 4. We arrived very close to Happy Hour yet the server made no mention of it or the specials offered. There was no water provided and no bread arrived at our table before our entrées. I ordered the 5 oz bacon wrapped sirloin, 24.99 but instead of the mashed potato or fries, I wanted a loaded baked potato as I was the birthday boy. This was an extra charge. One of our party ordered the 8 oz sirloin and by the way sirloin was the only type of steak offered. I am not really a fan of sirloin and it was chewy and not tender although it did arrive medium rare as ordered. The potato was not loaded like the ones I had in the past and there was not a sign of cheese on it. My friend ordered steak fajitas and he said it was okay but also chewy. My broccoli was way over steamed and the only vegetable offered. My drink arrived and was some type of peachy boozy lemonade and it was okay but also pricey. One of us ordered iced tea and there was no refill offered. We had to ask for water. We waited 35 minutes for our meals and there was only 10 people total in the establishment. Service was slow. Despite the 100.00 gift card the bill was a whopping 170,00 and we left the usual tip although she really didn't deserve it. I got free dessert due to my birthday although I had to suggest it as she made no mention of it. By the way you don't get the free spinach dip when you join, it is only offered on the app for take out or pick up. We should have gone to East Side Mario's because at least they give free bread, soup or salad, LOL! We will never go back to Kelsey's ever again! read more

Was here for a promotional event for wings. Servers were very nice despite the event business. They were very prepared and I received my food order even before my drink which was great since it showed the kitchen was prepared for the volume expected of the event. Restaurant was clean and I had a great experience! read more

We ordered classic sirloin steak and bacon burbon chicken burger. Burbon chicken burger was excellent and fries were good. Sirloin steak was okay. We could not dine in because of pandemic and it would be always better to eat steak in a restaurant not take out. Burger and fries were still good even take out. Service was good. I am sure we will go back there. read more

Reminder that this isn't a 5 star establishment. The service was good, the waitress was attentive. The food is pretty greasy bar food, but I really enjoyed the onions rings and I love the spinach dip! It used to be a lot better but it still has the taste, just the presentation was a little off. I'd probably go back if I was craving some greasy cheap food. Keep Eating, Angela read more

I don't visit Kelsey's too often but their food is a bit hit and miss here. For starters we shared the calamari and spinach dip appetizers with fried pitas. These were delicious. The calamari while not plentiful was nicely tender and had a creamy chunky aioli which had sun dried tomatoes in it! The calamari also came with a variety of veggies such as breaded onions, jalapenos, and red peppers. I was told the spinach dip here is a must order and it was! It was super creamy and cheesy and there was just the right amount of pita as well. You had a choice of getting fried or baked pita but we went with the fried ones for more of a crunch. I went with their burger fest special for the main and was rather disappointed by it because it looked phenomenal. It was simply too dry. It was a good concept with good toppings but the execution wasn't there. The buffalo chicken fingers were huge (it comprised of maybe 50% of the burger!), crisp, and nicely sauced but the chicken breast meat itself was too dry. The beef patty was also rather dry, combined with a dense bun as well made it very hard to swallow down. I'm not sure if this was a single incident or not, but only if the burger was juicy this would have been an amazing one! The same deal with the chip truck style fries, they were rather thick as well but that's moreso due to the style here. The fries here are definitely good if you like that kind of style! Service was really pleasant here and I liked the atmosphere which was very relaxed. read more

Fabulous Nachos, appetizer menu, and burger selection is awesome. Alcohol beverages have jar sizes - great value for your money! Dessert menu is also good - funnel cake fries are to die for! Calamari was way over cooked - actually you could see black burn marks. Had to send it back - reorder was much better. Someone not paying attention. If you're looking for decent greasy comfort food - this is your place! read more

After coming to this location numerous times, I'm still so disappointed that it's still the same and nothing has changed. To begin, as my friends and I arrived, we got seated pretty quick because there were only about two other tables that were occupied. The waiter gave us a table right beside the bar. You would think the service would be really good considering the restaurant was no where close to being packed but boy, were we wrong. The service was not good! It's like he kept forgetting we were there or something (even though he was in the bar and we were right beside it), I actually started getting frustrated because I haven't dealt with such bad service in so long. On top of that, I do realize waiters make mistakes and that's totally cool if you're not being rude about it. Two of my friends decided to share two appetizers, the four cheese spinach dip and vegetable quesadilla. I wanted to try a new item on the menu (only available during chicken fest). I got the szechuan chicken bites. The waiter was taking our order and I guess he didn't hear me, he goes like "WHAT?" so rudely and in our face, I'm like okay then (he was talking really unprofessional). About 15 minutes later my friends received their appetizer but I didn't get my dish. We waited about 10 minutes (I munched on their four cheese spinach dip), and my dish still didn't come out. We called him over and he responded with "I'm sorry but I forgot to punch it in." I literally waited an overall 40 minutes for one small dish that didn't even end up being something to die for. However, he did give us 3 a soft drink for free for waiting that long and for making the mistake. I did feel bad after he offered us a free drink, but the way he was talking and not checking up on us was just horrible. The szechuan chicken bites were good, however they weren't amazing. It's a good dish to get if you aren't starving but want something to munch on. I personally thought it could've had more flavour but I still enjoyed it. The four cheese spinach dip was AMAZING! It was literally to die for. I didn't try the vegetable quesadilla, however my friends said it tasted good. All in all, I wouldn't ever return to this location. Two stars only because the restaurant is clean, and the food was really good! I personally recommend the four cheese spinach dip! The service definitely needs to improve. read more

After going to the movies, we grabbed a bite here. It wasn't busy and we were seated quickly by a cheerful hostess. And then we waited. It was 10min or so before we saw the server for our section who apologized profusely for the delay. We ordered Steak Fajitas for 2. We said we wanted the steak done medium. He brought the tortillas and toppings, but it was only a serving size that would come with a single serving of fajitas. They should bring 2 bowl of toppings to save the server another trip. Oh well. At least the toppings were fresh! It arrived well done. We didn't complain. There was no seasoning on the steak at all. It was tender, but no flavour. There were fried onions and orange peppers with the steak, enough onions for 2, not peppers. The steak was on a bed of fried rice that was quite yummy. Makes me wonder what the size difference between the 2 looks like. Meh. read more

Went here the other night as an alternative since our first pick was full. Normally I like Kelsey's but was quite disappointed with this visit. Though the staff were friendly, the service they gave wasn't the greatest. Not sure if they were understaffed or what but it certainly felt like it. First, we were seated at a booth that was missing a bulb so it was a little dark. Second, the waitresses were quick to try and get our order but once we finally decided what to have, our orders took forever. I like to give everyone the benefit of a doubt so I'm guessing the kitchen staff too were short. But then when our food finally came, it was disappointing. I ordered the chicken strips which were pretty small. Then my side of plum sauce was literally enough to dip their already tiny chicken strips, twice or thrice at most. Also the batter was way over cooked to the point that it was borderline burnt. With the strips, I got some sad looking pieces of carrot and celery. Definitely wasn't worth the $11.99. 2/5. Calamari portion looked generous at first until I realized they had added some chips that were camouflaged with the Calamari. They were at least good, though. Just didn't appreciate the illusion. The chips were under the Calamari which have it that fuller basket effect. 3/5. Spinach dip was alright. Would've been nicer if it were actually warmer. 3/5. So if you look at what we ordered above, you'd think that we would've gotten our order pretty quick, right? Nope. Again, we waited I'd say about 30mins for our food to arrive. On top of that, the dessert that came with the kids meal also took forever. As mentioned, staff were nice and I'm just guessing that they may have been shirt staffed. However the food quality was quite poor and not to mention the place needs to be updated a bit. read more

I'm not a total fan of their food. I usually come just for drinks. Their spinach dip is really good too. But I find their other food so bland. However they really redeemed itself when I had their Nutella Donuts. Holy moly I was in heaven. They were warm pillows filled with Nutella goodness. I didn't care for the dip with it and honestly it doesn't need it. It was a perfect way to satisfy my craving. I hope they keep it on the menu because when I have those days I'll definitely be coming here for that. I did see some other cool things on their new menu and maybe I'll give it a shot. My friend got the funnel cake fries but I didn't like the chocolate sauce they used and it didn't have that same great taste you find at wonderland. My girl got a Caesar and it wasn't too spicy for her which she loved. I would recommend asking it a bit hot if you like spicy read more

This is by far the worst Kelsey's in Scarbrough or that I've been to !!! The Moscow mule the gingerbeer was flat there was no alcohol in the drink! The calamari was tasteless! read more

The food was alright and came in timely manner as expected but the customer service was outstanding. Would recommend.

Walked in, Waited 10 minutes and no one acknowledged my party's presence so we left. Wasn't even busy. Not a huge deal since I lose nothing from bad service. Walked 30 seconds to Boston Pizza instead. Sorry that I can't review more of the experience since Kelsey's didn't want our money. Boston Pizza made $240 + tip this day because of Kelsey's lack of basic customer service skills. Don't waste your time even attempting to eat here. read more

Sad to give such a low rating because... We didn't even order food! We left before our glasses of water reached us, which is sad. Got to restaurant and waited to be seated. No one greeted us for about 10 minutes. The restaurant is relatively dead, no one was in the bar area (not even a bartender was there). When we finally got seated we just asked for water first. After another 10 minutes of waiting to get our glasses of water and to place our order, we just decided to leave. And when we were putting on our coats to leave, the server finally came over and said water is still on the way! Are you pumping fresh water from somewhere?! Honestly, no one should wait 10 minutes for water in any restaurant... Busy or dead. Another reason why we left is there wasn't anything on the menu that we wanted enough. Why pay $20 for a plain burger that you don't really want to eat?! I didn't want to settle for something on the menu for the sake of eating there. I never got up and left before but I'm really glad we did. It could have been an easy $50 down the drain. We went home and got McDonalds and I loved it. read more

Competing with Boston Pizza next door this is just another Kelsey's sitting in the parking lot of a box store strip mall in the suburbs (can you hear the lack of enthusiasm in my voice?) They have a patio for the summer, and the food is exactly what you'd expect. Kelsey's tends to be one of my least favourite of all the chain restaurants because just about everything they serve I could whip up at home with cheaper, fresher ingredients and with less salt and preservatives. However, one does not always get to choose the restaurant. Anyway, apart from my personal preference to avoid Kelsey's restaurants, going to this location won't bring any surprises (good or bad). read more

My fiancee and I have 3 -4 restaurants that we usually go to and kelseys is one of them and i have noticed a steady decline in service and food presentation. we went there tonight and had a horrible experience, it was not that busy and we were seated right away, the waitress came fairly quick and took our order which is the exact order we get every time. the drinks came quick,so far so good. then the food comes, we both order buffalo chicken sandwich like always and my fiances is nicely done and well presented but mine on the other hand looked like someone just threw lettuce tomato and chicken and poured so much sauce that i had to use a napkin with every bite which they only brought one napkin each, then took 7 minutes for waitress to come back where we asked for extra napkins and she came back with napkins not even big enough to clean a babies mouth. so after i ate my sandwich with a butter knife and fork and was done my drink and waited 10 minutes until she came to ask if we needed anything else, i said absolutely not, just the bill please. everyone in my family has been waiters and waitresses and i am ashamed from the service at this location. nothing against kelseys as a brand but all it takes for me is one bad experience and that is the thought that will be left in my head and therefore will not be going back. read more

Came the week of Olympic trials, swimmers came in and some were recommended to leave?! Food took way too long. Ridiculous.

I expected so much more for Kelsey's. It was my first time there and had ordered the chicken tenders coated with Doritos. Worst mistake I made, ended up getting so sick. And the price was rather high. read more

Great food. Not too busy at lunch. Comparable prices. Great location for when I am visiting. Great service.

This is probably one of the worst Kelsey's establishments I've ever been to. We've gone twice now, and had terrible experiences each time. The first ended up with my wife getting food poisoning from undercooked chicken, the second time the waiter forgot to enter our order and then blamed it on a malfunctioning printer. I'm sorry, if it was just a printer malfunction, then why do you need me to tell you my order again? In your computer, should it not already be in there if you entered it previously? I used to work at a Kelsey's back home 20 years ago, and they had the technology then. On top of all this, the manager didn't even come out to talk to us. Terrible. Better service and experience at mcdonalds. At least there you get your food, and a smile. read more

My boyfriend and I have been sitting here for more than 45mins and none of my order showed up. So I asked the waiter, he is the MOST HORRIBLE waiter I've ever seen. I wasn't impolite, I was just asking, and he was like, it was not my fault, it's the cook's responsibility, I did my best. And gave me an attitude which surprised me a lot. If the manager is reading this, please fire this waiter. Check your schedule for June 26, he was the one took care the right hand section. We were sitting at a booth at the very end. read more
