    Staff was friendly and attentive. Food came mostly in a timely manner. Pancakes were dry, the rest of the food was good. We (6 of us) mostly ordered breakfast, one ordered salad. We would eat here again.

    Not our first time and definitely not going to be our last time here. Sri and everyone here was so helpful and courteous. Sorry if I spell Savan the managers name wrong. Thank you for everything you did for our party of 4. Although we were the last people there, not rushed to leave. Great time had. Back soon.

    Always enjoy a meal at Symposium Ajax. Food is great. The noise level is good - no loud music. The patio is very nice there too.

    We went there for brunch on Sunday. We had six people at our table and the table was reserved. No problem getting table. The food was good. We had breakfast, fish and chips which were massive, and the burger was delicious. My major complaint would be that it is extremely loud and almost impossible to hear because of the high ceiling

    My girlfriend and I sat at are table for 10 minutes and never had a server come to our table so we got up and left and that's when we were notice and then followed out the door by a stuff member trying to get us to come back so it took us getting up and leaving to get notice and follow to almost my vehicle before I had to tell him leave us alone needless to say myself and anyone that I know will hear this story and will never be in this place again

    The staff at this Symposium are friendly and attentive. The service is great. The food is always amazing! We love it because everyone in our group can find something (or many things) on the menu that they can enjoy

    Great experience to end a busy week, the food was delicious and the ambience was great. We ordered a bottle of wine which was 1/2 price for their Friday special. Not my first time dining and drinking and surely won’t be the last, highly recommended drinking and dining experience.

    Not our first time. Sarah was great looking after us. Actually all the servers were very friendly and helpful. Would recommend this restaurant to anyone. Seems to be busy every time we go which shows how good it is. Thanks again.

    Had breakfast with friends to celebrate a birthday. Restaurant was busy but service was friendly and timely. Overall food was good but all commented that the portions given were not what was described or expected when it came to the eggs and bacon. The menu describes the breakfast as having three eggs when I would say that at best each person was given 1.5 eggs. The bacon strips (3) were paper thin. “Shrinkflation” I guess. While the food was good the cost did not match what you received. Those that had waffles said they were very good.
