Great food and great service!
Pleasant environment and a friendly waitress. Food was a little slow in coming and it was evident it had been sitting out awhile as it was cold when it arrived. Had a 2 for 1 coupon, though, so can't complain!
Brunch was not bad
I was a bit disappointed with the table at first but we managed to talk our our eay into another , if we promised to leave by 7:30 , No problem we were finished before then.
I thought my steak was much tastier when I had been there in feb. Also veg were not hot. But all in all we had a nice dinner. Thank you.
Enjoyed Dr Strangelove
The service from the server was great. The food was a little bland. However, I did get a fantastic deal thanks to the coupons from BCLC
Always a wonderful experience! Vibrant and classy. Live music always a crowd pleaser and great for dancing alone or with a group.
Ordered steak it was done to perfection.
Looking forward to attending another time.
very nice environment, especially dueling piano after 7pm, lots of fun
There has live brand on Friday night at 9pm. It's good place for dancing.
The dancing was superb except that it was not enough space. The waiter was terrible and not attentive at all. We were a group of 10 women for a birthday and had to wait for wine and water for at least 15 min and could only hope for a refill at some point during the night, even though all our glasses were empty. The special occasion was not recognized
I brought my co-workers here for our belated Christmas Party. I go to Personsas often, so I knew what the food and atmosphere would be like. I'm happy to say that they were all very happy with the food, service and experience. Especially my boss, who paid the bill was very happy!
We had a lovely booth close to the dance floor. Dr Stangelove is one of our favourite bands! The fettucini with Prawns and scallops was delicious! I am quite particular about my martinis and Sally got it just right! She was fabulous and her attentiveness to our every need made our Christmas dinner so special and fun! Overall an excellent night out of dining and dancing!
My husband and I had a very enjoyable meal. Our server was attentive and very efficient. We also enjoyed the band that was playing as well.
The service was slow. We waited 1 hour for appetizers. Any drink I ordered they didn't have. And it took forever to get a drink. That was the same with dessert. When we ordered whatever they did have for dessert, it took 45 minutes to get that. While waiting for dessert, we were asked if we can share our table with another 4 people. Which was uncomfortable. We didn't even finish our meal. I've been there before many times and this was very disappointing. My friends and I will definately not go there again. It was better a couple of years ago. Ever since then its gone down hill, and I've been there 4 times since then. This was the worst.
Having a band after dinner was great. Unfortunately the menu did not specify all ingredients in a sandwich we ordered and someone had alkergies to one of the items. The waitress seemed annoyed by this and after too long of a dialogue she took it back but informed us it would be a long wait for another one, we thought this was unprofessional and not helpful.
We then decided to speak to the management who did apologize and send a round of drinks. We were still charged for the sandwich which we didn't agree with and by the time it arrived we were not hungry anymore.
Good food. Service was great until it got busy but we expect that as it turns into more of a night club. Band was ok. Not great like some of the bands we have seen here
Service was not great and the food was sub-par. Drinks were delish and the band was on fire
We were there to celebrate a birthday. The patio was lovely. The fact that they did not have the champagne or several of the beers listed on their wine / drinks menu was a little frustrating
We had a great time at the restaurant plus the food was surprisingly good to top it off.
Thank you!
Awesome as always
Great experience and the duelling pianos were great entertainment.
While the patio was beautiful, the rest of the evening was not. It took ten minutes to get a drink menu and another 20 to get our order taken. The drinks we ordered were sour, and not what was in the menu and when we sent them back and ordered different ones, each time our waiter came to tell us they were out. At 5:30 pm.
We ordered a seared tuna salad, sushi tacos and wok squid. The tuna was overcooked and tough, the tuna in the sushi tacos tasted and looked like canned, and the squid was 95% batter. The only saving grace was the sambal to dip it in.
We were charged for the drinks we sent back and no discount was given after we told them the food, drinks and wait times were not satisfactory. I would not return here.
If your looking for a nightclub feel the this is the place for you
Our "Go to" place for celebrations. Live music dinner and dancing
Great mother's day meal with family but a bit of a surprise that it was actually in the casino. Food was delicios and our server, Megan, was outstanding!
We had a lovely dinner celebrating a birthday. The food was lovely and the service was excellent. Unfortunately I forgot about the playoffs for hockey and basketball. All the TV's were on, and most of the patrons were there to watch the games, so it was quite noisy.
We would choose the restaurant again however we'd make sure it was a quieter sports night.
service was very slow, we were first of many to arrive and one of last served
Food was good and lounge ambiance was fantastic! Each time I've been there, the weekend band was awesome. Great music to dance to.
Had a great stake wonderful best ever! But be cairfull with the potatoes so hot I burnt my roof of my mouth in three places it blistered so fast thank goodness I had cold water but the potatoes were really good too. I had it again today stake great again and the potatoes not so hot but really good.
Friday night was very nice this week. Love the DJ this Friday. Hope this next Friday and Saturday night Persona will be good again.
The food portion suddenly smaller today - just enough today as we had a special afternoon tea event after that. The chef (who may be new) missed to put the fruits (as listed in the menu) on the plate. Luckily the good server quickly fixed it for us. Highly appreciated.
The place is great as long as the control how many people they let into the area on weekends
Great food, awesome service. It's a great restaurant to enjoy with a big group or a good night out with friends!!
Food is good, duelling pianos on Wednesday nights is even better! We come as often as we can.
Poor service (waitress sat at table beside us folding cutlery for 15 min before asking if we've been helped, and took awhile just to get water) food was good but not worth returning for. Bar happy hour is probably better.
Was great all round but noise level high. We had 6 people around square table and hard to talk
We got there and right away the waitress asked if we wanted any drinks. But we were still waiting for a few more girls so we said we'd wait. Then when the next few girls came, right away the waitress asked again if we wanted any drinks when we haven't even seen the menu yet. It felt like we were being rushed even though the restaurant was empty. We decided to do dine out and we noticed on the dine out site the menu listed soup with grilled cheese. But on the actual menu it was just soup. So we were kinda upset of the false information on the online dine out menu. Then, we found out they ran out of the cheese cake dessert so we could either get mini donuts or substitute the cheese cake for lime pie. We ordered donuts.. however, the waitress then comes back saying they ran out of donuts. It was a pretty disappointing meal. My friend order the steak medium rare. And when the food came her steak was well done. We told the waitress and she took it back and made a new one. She then comes back and we cut into the steak and it was so raw and bloody, it was cold in the middle. We were pretty upset with this. The food was dry and bland. The dessert wasn't that great either. I don't think I'll be coming back to this restaurant unfortunately.
We enjoyed our Benny a lot (in fact, we always do) and the service was great too!
Great food. Lovely staff. Awesome vibe.
