    6 adults and 1 six year old enjoyed our time at Original Joes. The pub food was very good and our server was friendly and efficient. The only reason I would give this restaurant less than five stars is the noise was so loud we could not hear each other very well.

    Was looking forward to mini yorkies, apparently not available due to supply issues. I ordered ribs, the taste was good but they were way overcooked, so dried out. I will probably go there again but order something else, service was good.

    This was my first time at this location and I will say that I was overwhelmingly disappointed. I arrived with my partner and we were seated at our reserved table right away, and then had to wait for over 15 before being acknowledged by our server. There was no introduction, no hi, no how are you. We ordered our drinks and food right away and got nothing more than a few ok`s from our server. The drinks were good but the presentation of the food and the taste were not the best and left my partner and I feeling sick. At the end when our server brought us our bill she started talking to us enthusiastically as I took out my card to pay. I am a server at a restaurant, I understand having a bad day and not being able to go all out. I also understand that good service is crucial to give customers a good experience. Smiling, small talk, checking in, these are the bare minimum even when a server is not having a good day. Having had none of these until the very end when it came time to tip ruined my experience and unfortunately left me telling others to avoid this restaurant. I will give some credit to who I believe was the manager. He was super nice and crazy fast when I had asked for ketchup and that lightened the experience a little more. Overall I`m sure I have given and have received service that was not the best but I have never felt the need to write a bad review... I ended the night by apologizing to my boyfriend for bringing him there, for what was supposed to be a nice birthday dinner.

    Good overall experience. They were busy, the staff are young and doing their best so they’re not paying attention to empty glasses, empty plates, no cutlery, etc. You have to advocate for your service but once they know, they’re quick to react and courteous overall. Food is tasty, good quality menu. I’d recommend this place if you feel like experiencing a quality pub experience.

    Had a great visit there - again. Should get a frequent eaters card! Food prices have gone up, as everywhere. The biggest negative was the noise. Will go around 2:30-3 when bit quite so busy. Waitress was great and food was good as well.

    This was our first visit here. The food was good, the ambience was nice, the sound level was ok, but the service was questionable….hard to get service and the worst part was when our food was dropped off at our table, the server left, and we had no utensils with which to eat with. And so we sat there for quite awhile staring at our food and then finally we caught the server to ask for…..ms ps a bit pricey tho…$…..

    The place was easy to access from town and lots of parking. The servers began attentive but slowed down their service to us. Ordered a vegetarian meal but was delivered with chicken so had to wait for it to be cooked again. They brought out my sides to start eating while my wrap was remade but no other compensation or real apology apart from explaining server ordered it wrong. Overall not too bad a place, good for groups on the deck.

    It went well, unfortunately, even though I have asked several times regarding allergies. We were served some food with the allergen. The server forgot. It was scary we had to leave early. My son got a reaction. It's unfortunate because it's our favourite place we've been there a couple except for yesterday!!

    Never saw the server again after we ordered, cold food but waited and then ate it after waiting for someone anyone to come around. Waited forever for the bill. No idea where she kept disappearing to as not on the floor. When we finally got our bill she never came back with a machine. Left us waiting forever again till we flagged someone else down to pay. Definitely will not be back there again as it's definitely gone downhill for quality.

    The food was good don’t get me wrong, but I was not pleased with the staff besides from our waitress. I loved our waitress but however because we were a bigger party, there was more than one person accommodating us. We felt rushed, and some orders were misunderstood and the servers barely came out to check on us. Would just recommend getting the food thru skip.

    Food was delicious. Our Waitress was awesome. The one receptionist needs to improve her customer service skills. Not really welcoming and made a little fuss on our reservation. Good thing the manager is accommodating and commend his excellent skills. We felt rushed a bit coz we weren't offered at least a dessert so we just paid and left.

    Very busy. Appetizers arrived and no cutlery so asked the server who brought the appetizers to bring some and he said he didn’t do that. We had to prompt him to go tell someone who did “do that” to get it for us. Food was good except the French fries were cold on all of our plates; fish, beef dip and quesadilla were hot so obviously the fries were plated too soon before the rest was added. Server brought us an order of fries that were hot as replacement. Overall food was tasty.

    The place was packed at 1pm when we arrived, I'm glad we had a reservation and I highly recommend it. Friendly services, professional environment and a great selection of food items on the menu, prices are resonable, especially given the environment we are in. The local craft beer was really good too. I will definitely be back.

    Was a good experience however it was busier than I thought it would be so the noise level made conversation a tiny bit difficult but food and service made it all worthwhile. Glad we had reservations as didn’t have to wait to get seated and the elevator was very nice to have particularly for one individual in our party. Thx OJ’s.
