Cozy and friendly restaurant with great food!!…read more Egg Benedict with Pork Belly is sooo good. Pork Belly is so soft and juicy! Carb Cake Egg Benedict is also great. Kids love their fluffy waffle and scrambled eggs too. Highly recommend!

Was meeting a friend for breakfast and looked around for choices and found 3 good places downtown…read more I had the crab cake Benedict and my friend had peameal bacon with scrambled eggs. The place was not very busy considering it was a Saturday morning but idk perhaps there's a glutton of breakfast establishments? The place was clean and service was decent. Just had to ask for the 2nd cup of coffee. Maybe people just don't like to come downtown cause it's not the nicest But it's not I felt unsafe. It's all fine. Parking is also free on the weekends so that is a bonus! Prices are great and the portion was good

I have been going to Mel's for decades. The food is delicious. I am a huge fan of the wraps with…read moresoup or coleslaw, both made fresh in-house. The staff is friendly, accommodating, and totally professional. The restaurant gets VERY busy at times, but the servers are as efficient as is reasonable. We even invited our favourite bartender to our wedding! The decor is 50s diner right down to the tabletop jukebox selectors and the restaurant is always clean. The main eating area is reasonably wheelchair accessible; the "lounge" is three steps up, for those of you who need to know. The patio is lovely. Even though it faces a parking lot, Melanie (yes, she's real) puts flowers and other plants all over to create a welcoming space. There's live music on Friday nights with lots of great people to chat with. I met my husband at Mel's back in the 90s and I just celebrated my retirement there a few weeks ago. Melanie Pringles isn't just a restaurant. It's "that" place--the spot regulars flock to for lunches with friends, Sunday dinners with the kids, drinks on a Friday night, like the spots you see in sit-coms, just with booths instead of a couch. In my opinion, 5 stars isn't enough.

The decor is still the same, old school diner but I think the food has changed a bit. Portion size…read moreseems larger than the last time we went. Kids meal were a good portion and the salad my wife had was massive. My wings and ribs were so good, maybe a wrong choice on the dry seasoning on the wings but it was still enjoyable. Always a good choice for good atmosphere, great service and fair value.

Updated review. My most recent visit to Angelique Family restaurant was to celebrate my…read moremother-in-law's birthday. We ordered eggs benedict with by far the best Hollandaise sauce you can get. The poached eggs were medium with lots of yolk to spread on the peameal bacon and english muffin. The shredded potato hashbrown is addictive and massive portions. The baked beans were nice and warm to compliment your breakfast. I ordered the 3 eggs over easy with 3 sausages and 3 bacon. They actually serve 4 eggs which I assume they are using medium sized eggs. That's OK as the extra makes up for the smaller eggs. You get a choice of toast ( white, whole wheat or rye) along with shredded potato hashbrowns or home fries. My mother-in-law ordered the Western Omelet with ham and onion. She really enjoyed the dish and she managed to eat almost half of the dish. The coffee is bottomless and the service is very friendly. I suggest dressing up for the cold weather because you might have to lineup outside the restaurant. I don't think they take reservations and it's first come first serve.

An absolute gem! What a cute restaurant and yummy breakfast food! Get there earlier to avoid line…read moreups! It's a cute space that makes you feel like you're supporting a true mom and pop store. They seem to have a great lunch menu - something I shall try when I return for a third time!

We went this past weekend to Hot Rocks Creative Diner in Whitby with our friends…read more We made reservations here which is definitely recommended given the space inside The vibe was a comfortable casual vibe Our server that night was Alejandro that me and my husband had before He was once again super friendly and accommodating The food was amazing as usual Me and husband shared the table bread to start I had the beet salad with chicken One of the best beet salads I have had anywhere My husband had the chicken, sausage and shrimp linguine which he devoured I would definitely come back here again for a meal and highly recommend them as a spot to dine in the Durham region

Well this is an oshawa institution. I have been living in Durham region for a couple of decades…read morenow but never close. However we are always ready for a road trip to visit. The latest visit was as good as the first one. Same decor, everything still spotless, wait staff friendly and fast. Due to us missing Thanksgiving we had turkey. Yes real turkey not processed roll. Large portions as usual, house made gravy. Mmmm. Close to the 401 easy to get to parking on site. Excellent choice in the menu. And the house made rice pudding for dessert or strawberry pie. A must visit. Pricing very reasonable. Very busy during peak hours. Go!

A relic from the past is still going but I'm not sure that is a good thing…read more Dinner on a Sunday evening at 7pm was met with immediate news that they were closing at 8pm so we were told to rush and order asap. Our server was rough around the edges, very short and to the point. Food was good. A nice portion sized deli sandwich and crispy, golden cut fries. This is why you're coming to Teddy's and the cooks are making it happen. The decor is horribly dated, the restaurant hasn't been updated since the 90s. It's like looking at a parody restaurant from a movie with all the sports and tchotchke memorabilia on the walls from years gone by. It's in a desperate need of an update. My biggest gripe was the server taking our deserts order while in the middle of vacuuming the restaurant because they were closing soon and she obviously wanted to go home. It doesn't make you feel very welcome. They also locked the doors and told us we had to leave from the side door instead of the main entrance. I don't know if I'll be back, it doesn't feel like they want me to come back.

Glad to try this place!…read more Had craving for burgers at night. Checked Ubereats, and a bit debated between fast food chain or a local burger place - and found buy one (Original burger) get another free deal at Sam's Grill. The burgers were loosely packed, with two generous coarsely ground meat patties (well done but juicy) between the fluffy buns. I got "everything" as the toppings - but the delivered burgers were not soggy. Veggie toppings were fresh and crisp, giving it a great texture. Loosely packed with fluffy buns, standing tall. Delicious X 2! Great deal! Their poutine has a good reputation. Next time for sure!
