    Mystic Dining Room - medium-well done???? tough and not really a steak at all...

    We had an evening in Gander, and thought that this restaurant looked interesting. Dinner proved to…read morebe a mixed bag. "Garlic Toast," even though free to start, is probably worth a miss. The Chef's Board of seafood was quite good, though the "roasted vegetable of the day" was barely warm. Partridgeberry chicken was fair, with the same veggie issues as the seafood dish. The restaurant does talk about a wine list. The by-the-glass selections are all traditional offerings, as are the by-the-bottle wines. I believe there were seven reds and six whites on each side of the wine list. Prices top out at 50/bottle so. Service was pretty good, and the restaurant itself is comfortably quirky.

    Miserable Food - Not recommended - Not at all what we expected from a quality restaurant!…read more Here is a report about our experience on Thursday, the 18th of July, 2024. Our party of 4 adults (2 senior couples) arrived before 7 pm to have a steak dinner. The Mystique dining room looked good on our cell phone and we were looking forward to a delicious and enjoyable meal... They claim on their website: "The Mystic Dining Room offers casual dining at its finest, with an excellent wine list to complement the experience. Set in a cozy and enchanting atmosphere, guests can enjoy a blend of local and international cuisine." But we left VERY disappointed and upset at 9pm after not eating most of the food and returning a complete meal... Here are the details: First: We ordered shortly after arriving. We waited and waited and nearly left (I wish we had) until around 8:20, after more than 60 min of waiting, our food arrived. Details of each person in our party and their experience: (Note: none of us likes to complain) The best meal: Filet Mignon I asked for very well done - not at all red - and as usual I explained to have it butterflied to make sure it is 100% well-done (most cooks do not enjoy cooking filet mignon that much, but that is how I like it). The meal arrived, i cut into the meat, and it was only medium done - all red in the middle. I sent it back, and it came back nearly well done - still a little pink, but I ate it, and it was tender and tasty, as was the mushroom gravy served with it. Also served with it were sliced carrots - nearly raw and broccoli - overcooked. I opted for smashed garlic potatoes as a side, and they were very piecey, dry and at best lukewarm. Next: 8 oz New York Style Strip Steak with grit in the salad... My husband had the 8 oz ny strip steak, he asked for it to be medium-well, and it was okay, (more medium-rare than medium-well) but the meat was very thick and very tough. Same as mine, the carrots were nearly raw but the broccoli was overcooked. He had a salad on the side, and ate some with good appetite, but then bit on sand or something gritty and stopped eating it. My friend had the Prime Rib Steak - excessively spicy cesar salad... The prime rib steak was okay, but tough. She noted the cold veggies and asked to have them replacec with a cesar salad. This was done, but no mention that they gave her an extremely spicy variant without telling her. It was so spicy that she couldn't eat it although she usually doesn't mind spicy food... Now the WORST: her husbands 8 oz ny strip steak. (see image) I can only say that the best part of it was that he was not charged for it after he complained and returned the plate. He had ordered the steak to be medium-well, but not only was it extremely thick, and when he cut into it, it was not only tough, but the blood came dripping out of it - it was cooked rare at best, and he was disgusted and felt grossed out by this bloody "blob" with a very thin crust. They offered a substitution but since we already had waited for over an hour he refused and did not eat with us this evening. So, he returned the whole plate and watched us struggle with our meals. That said, the servers were very nice and apologetic. It seems to be a kitchen issue. We asked for a discount, and as an added insult they gave us a whopping discount of less than $8 on an around $123 bill...(for the 2 meals of one couple) and of $6 for the one meal of the other couple...

    Honestly disappointed. Went here because it seemed popular…read moreand nice and busy. Assuming that meant it was good. Bought 60 dollars of food for half of it to end up in the garbage. Never coming again. The squid rings were extremely salty and way too greasy. I know deep fried squid rings ought to be greasy but this was extreme. Ended up with a family member getting sick and throwing up from the heart burn afterwards. The batter hardly stayed on them. Not to mention them dumping the hot rings straight into the Styrofoam tray which melted onto a couple of the rings. Absolutely dangerous. The poutine had watery gravy with very little flavour, they used store bought fries which some were a bit hard in the middle, maybe udercooked? Not sure what caused them to be like that. They also had no flavour. At least they tried to make up for it with about half a blocks worth of cheese on it. The only decent item was the loaded wedges, which weren't initially given to us. We got takeout and had to turn around and go back for the rest of the meal which they forgot to hand to us. And then treated as if it were somehow our fault by the moody staff.

    Excellent fish and chips and fish tacos. Service was excellent. Chips are called wedgies and are…read moretasty. Nice view over the water. The rating on line is not justified. Way better than a three. Rating it a 5 after our experience.
