    Went on a date here with my boyfriend for his birthday, we're cheapskates so we ordered 2 different meals and shared them, it was really yummy, our waiter was wonderful!

    Lobster punch cocktail
    John S.

    Went to celebrate mothers day, belated but late is better than never. The meal and apps were amazing. For our party of 4 we got 3 and split them. In addition to our entrees The lobster dip with chips reminds me of the Tostito's cheese dip, only creamier and the lobster packs a sinfully delightful amount of flavour, the tortilla chips which seem as if they are made in the kitchen given they are fresh, especially when compared to the tortilla chips at most other restaurants of this type. The stuffed mushrooms were flavourful but not worth going into detail IMO, but still better compared to the Brussel sprouts which can be done at home in an air fryer, if you ask me. As for the entree I got the Kung pow noodles with Shrimp, it served as my meal and dinner the night after the vidit, it was amazing the shrimp was a delightfully fried almost a tempura type of breading, the kung pao sauce made the noodles amazing, as fid the toppings (I'm not to big a fan of noodles,usually) and my drink, the lobster punch it was amazingly sweet, but if you have a sensitive stomach I would advise you pick another cocktail.Finally I'd be remiss if I forgot to mention the astounding service, our waitress was checking on us almost every 5-10 minutes.

    Great place to get your fill of seafood. We went on a weekday night and the restaurant was pretty full. We made a reservation ahead of time so we were seated promptly. Although it's a very spacious location, I would highly recommend making a reservation if you are dining during peak hours. Our sever was nice and really energetic. She gave us a few recommendations for appetizers, all of which were very good. In terms of the food itself, everything is pretty tasty. It can get sort of heavy with the amount of butter and oil that's in pretty much everything. It's not amazing seafood, but it's pretty good for its price and you get very large amounts of food. The seafood wasn't over cooked, it had a good texture and enough seasoning to not take away from the taste of the food itself. The steak was cooked okay as well, very comparable to other restaurants of its degree. The fried foods are honestly kind of bland and really need the dipping sauce to amp up the flavour, although this was to be expected. We ordered 2 appetizers and 3 entrées for our group of 5 people. We were very full by the end and had a bit of leftovers. Overall, Red Lobster is a pretty nice place to get tasty seafood for fairly reasonable prices.

    Crab covered in butter sauce, impossible to open

    $50 crab was over cooked. And the chef decided to pour the butter sauce all over the shell making it impossible to open... the chef did a terrible job and probably needs a day off... order the butter sauce on the side, if you go... this chef doesn't understand basic physics. Vibe was buttered crab flying through the air.

    Lobster Mac n cheese :/

    Silly me did not look at my food b4 I left the restaurant. It was a to-go order. The lobster in the man-n-cheese is SUPER-SALTY, and on the potatoe it's literally one piece of lobster:( I don't recommend either to anyone. I also got the stuffed mushrooms n the presentation, I won't even bother to post that mess.

    Endless Shrimp event. Nashville Hot & Mediterranean Shrimp
    Danielle B.

    Some co-workers and I went to Red Lobster this week for the Endless Shrimp event. It was officially my first time at a Red Lobster. Not normally a place I'd choose, but all the hype about the endless shrimp event was enough to get me to try - just once. One of our crew has a shrimp allergy, (I know, we're terrible people for bringing her here - and on her birthday, no less!) but the staff handled things with ease. The manager came by our table to explain how her food would be handled, and that it would come out before everyone else's meal to ensure there was no chance of cross-contamination. Very well-handled, Red Lobster! The menu is quite large, with lots of choices. Of course, it's mostly seafood, but there are plenty of options for anyone in a group who may not be a seafood eater. Two of us had the endless shrimp, which comes with a side salad and your choice of rice, potato or broccoli, and every table gets a basket of the cheddar biscuits - I just love these! I chose the Nashville Hot and the Mediterranean shrimp to start, followed up by the savoury garlic shrimp. I really didn't like the Nashville Hot, because they tasted like they were doused in sugar and I found them to be way too sweet. I had to smother them in hot sauce to make them edible. The Mediterranean shrimp were ok, but tasted a bit under-seasoned. I did enjoy the garlic shrimp, but I had to blot off a lot of the butter with some napkins, as they got to be a bit greasy-tasting after the first few bites. This is going to sound weird, but I really love that you get a good-sized serving of broccoli with your meal. Too many restaurants these days treat veggies like a garnish and you don't usually get many on your plate. I felt less guilty eating all that shrimp, having a big pile of broccoli to go with it. Especially since I didn't eat the side salad (it was basically swimming in dressing, which I forgot to ask to have on the side) so I couldn't eat it. Despite my food tasting fairly mediocre, I give this place three stars because of the service (especially the way they handled my friend's allergy) but they don't get full points because we did say it was her birthday - and not so much as a free drink or dessert was offered. She did enjoy her salmon entrée, though, so she left quite happy. I don't think I'd ever choose to return, but I know that if I ever went again with a group, there are plenty of choices on the menu. Plus, the cheddar biscuits are almost worth a return visit.

The wait time before we were seated was 45 minutes. But Boy was it worth it. The menu was full of abundant choices. We ordered 1. Slider burger appetizers 2. Egg rolls sampler appetizer 3. Louisiana chicken pasta 4. Chicken and shrimp gumbo 5. Shrimp tacos The food came in ridiculous large portions Wowza And everything tasted extremely flavourful We all were thoroughly full from all the food The only suggestion I have is to avoid the shrimp tacos. They came kinda soggy. But everything else was wonderful. We will definitely be back to enjoy this establishment as there is a reason they have been there so long An easy recommendation if you are looking for some casual dining of American fusion cuisine.

Multiple gluten free option available, vegeterian and allergy friendly option to choose from. As the name suggest, cheesecake is their signature and they have a lot! For me, I'm a tower truffle chocolate cake person (I'm not fan of cheesecake). They have some bread that you can eat while waiting. One of the bread if black/brown. I don't know the name, it's a different type of bread that really taste different. I'm not a big fan but my girlfriend love it. The other one is regular baguette style bread. They are normally served fresh hot with 2 dap of butter. For us, only the brown one was fresh and hot. The other one was cold and stale, even hard to chew. The butter was also ice cold, hard to cut. Not what we normally get from a cheesecake factory experience. The place is very loud. Both the very high volume music and all the customer talking even louder because of that music make it for a very loud place. Worker must have headache at the end of the day. The waiter was very nice and friendly. They are very busy, enough to have other staff pick up the orders or help, and I saw this with nearly all waiter. I think they need more staff, although I did see a lot. I took the smokehouse bbq burger. My girlfriend took the four cheese pasta. The burger was good. It come open with the bbq sauce and ketchup on the side. The pasta was good too. We took cake to go because we were full. Unfortunately, the very cherry cheesecake is not available anymore although its on the menu. All in all, it's a good place. The price is normal for today's pricing and the food is good.

The modern, chic decor sets a wonderful ambiance, and the service was immediate and welcoming. The food was spectacular from start to finish. We started with fresh, warm bread, followed by a flavorful seafood gumbo loaded with meat, and a generous portion of two lightly breaded crab cakes. For our mains, the 10oz ribeye and 8oz tenderloin were seasoned and cooked to absolute perfection--compliments to the chef! They came with a lovely side of baby potatoes and vegetables. We capped off a perfect meal with a warm pecan tart and ice cream. I highly recommend coming here. We noticed they have a pizza oven and plan to add pizza to the menu soon; we already can't wait for our next visit to try it out!

There are specials that change weekly. The interior is decorated with New Orleans memorabilia, medium lit, cozy (not large), with jazz music in the background. Service was attentive and friendly. They operated for 30 years at their old location. This location soft-opened on 2026-02-12. We came on 2026-02-25 for dinner. There were still some furnishings to complete (there were unforeseen delays). They kept the same menu offerings but it will be expanded within a month. We ordered the following: 1. Citra Terre D'Abruzzo Pinot Grigio - Italy (glass $14.95). 2. Coke. 3. Crab Cakes ($19.95). 4. New Orleans Shrimp Cocktail ($19.95). 5. Jambalaya Aranchini (weekly special). 6. Blackened Lamb Chops (weekly special). 7. New Orleans Fisherman's Plate ($39.95). 8. Pecan Pie warmed with Ice Cream ($14.95). 9. Bananas Foster ($14.95). 10. Beignet ($14.95). Every dish had an excellent presentation. We spent a lot of time taking photos and videos. What did you expect from me?! We loved all the dishes! The portions were large! There are more staff than in the previous location, allowing the service to be excellent. They tend to have many loyal and returning customers. Every table starts with freshly baked bread and butter. The bread was so fresh! The three appetizers tasted good. They each had a little kick due to creole cuisine. I loved the shrimp the most. The Blackened Lamb Chops was perfectly cooked. Each of the four pieces were very tender, accompanied by a delicious sauce. The dish had some very nicely cooked seasonal vegetables: roasted potatoes, a red pepper, string beans, a broccoli, and a carrot. This dish will be put into their regular menu in the near future. The New Orleans Fisherman's Plate is great if you want a little sampling of their seafood: Blackened Fish, Cajun Calamari, and Coconut Beer Shrimp. It also comes with rice and seasonal vegetables. The fish was so good! We brought some home for my mom and she really loved it. The Coconut Beer Shrimp was on top of a Orange Marmalade Sauce, which is really liked. The three desserts looked really good and tasted good. I loved the pecan pie the most. They can split dishes in half in the kitchen and serve them on two dishes for two people to share. The restaurant uses fresh seasonal ingredients and spices to create authentic Creole and Cajun tastes. Everything is made in-house except for bread and butter. In the near future, their bread will be made in-house too. Currently, there is only indoor dining but they are looking into the possibility of sidewalk outdoor dining. Mike Djurdjevic runs the front of the house while his wife, Mira Djurdjevic, operates the kitchen. Their son, Marko, also helps in the front of the house. There is a large pizza oven at the back of the restaurant. They will be introducing creole pizza in the near future. There is a separate large room for events, parties, etc. This room will be ready in the near future. They also do catering. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible, but there is no door-open button. There is one gender-neutral washroom, which is also wheelchair accessible, and one female washroom. Thrre is paid neighbourhood street parking. Review 2026-037

On a Sunday evening, it was quiet and intimate. Our server, whose name I did not learn, was excellent: kind and willing to make recommendations. Union Social has an excellent menu, with lots of diversity to cater to all palates, but not so many items as to be overwhelming for either staff or customers. We started off with cocktails, and my son's Citrus Mule -served according to tradition, in a copper mug - was so tasty. I enjoyed my Smoky Apple Old Fashion so much. It is worth coming here for a cocktail alone. Now, on to the mains (we skipped the appetizers, but the shrimp tacos did look tempting). I explained to our server that I was torn between the Smokehouse Beef Burger (which I regretted not ordering on a previous visit) and the Spaghetti Positano, a seafood pasta finished with lemon-herb breadcrumbs. She enthusiastically and energetically recommended the pasta (I love it when they actually give a recommendation, as opposed to, "Well, it depends what you want"). I was not disappointed! The seafood spaghetti was terrific! Surprisingly, the breadcrumbs more than compensated for a sprinkling of parmesan. I savoured the leftovers the next day, and I'm still thinking about it. The other diners, who ordered Cobb Salad, the Chicken Sandwich Special, and the Tuna Bow, were similarly satisfied. Apparently, the Steak Frites and the Fish and Chips were outstanding, as was my Pasta Positano (especially for garlic lovers!). A few other diners ordered dessert: they each had creme brulee, smoking hot from being freshly torched. The surface featured that perfectly glossy, lightly burned sugar, which always reminds me of a caramel-colored skating rink. The dessert was, according to my daughter, who is a connoisseur of creme brulee, was perfectly done. To finish off, my son (don't worry, he's an adult) had an espresso martini. I had a sip, and I can totally vouch for it being so divine! We had a very satisfying meal, and I'd only wish that I knew my server's name so that I could acknowledge how excellent she was. I'll be back. I keep planning for the burger, but right now, I could sure go for another helping of Spaghetti Positano!

Back to why I do this. I'm endlessly curious about food, people, and the magic that happens when great meals meet good music. Friendships just seem to evolve naturally around a table. And thank you, E, for another incredible photo -- your choices are always perfect. Mercado on St. Clair is a hidden gem. What was once beside my mom's flower shop downtown has now found a home in a slightly more industrial setting on Caledonia -- and somehow, it works perfectly. Cozy seating inside, a great covered patio outside, and that village-style European restaurant vibe you hope to stumble across. First off, the waiter was phenomenal. He walked us through the menu, explained everything perfectly, and genuinely elevated the whole experience. The menu is massive -- meat, seafood, everything you could want -- but we came for the paella. We were told it takes time because they make it the proper way. Not overly crispy, just authentic, rich, and layered with flavour. Worth every minute of the wait. To start, we had the gambas / shrimp in a rich red garlic and herb sauce plus extra toasted bread for dipping, per our waiter's recommendation. Absolute rockstar move. The other appetizer was a delicious beef stew served over crunchy rustic bread. Simple, hearty, and top notch. Now... drum roll please. This may have been the best paella I've ever had. Okay okay, maybe somewhere along the coast in Spain I've had one fresher... but this was absolutely off the charts. Zero fishy smell. Just beautiful saffron-infused rice with that perfect slight crisp, loaded with mussels, clams, octopus, calamari, shrimp, and more. Built for two people to share and completely unforgettable. A few glasses of house white later and bam - there was absolutely no chance I was going back to work. And dessert? I kept telling myself: "No dessert, Frank. No dessert." But there's a rule in life ; if you see crème brûlée on a menu, you order it. This wasn't exactly crème brûlée, but a cheesecake-inspired version of it. Two spoons, four bites, and thank you very much. Favourite meal of the year so far. Completely blown away by this place. Mercatto -- go now. Go fast.

    I was there for my birthday and this place didn't disappoint, even on a Monday…read more The atmosphere was calming and refreshing with an upbeat fun whimsical garden. Service was friendly and prompt. The food was delicious. We were a party of thee and ordered a plater that served us well. All ate from the Beira Mar platter and all meats and seafood were cooked well to order. Fantastic place for a night out or a get together with other friends family or special occasion.
