Oh Boy Burger, Queen and Portland
Have you been to Caplansky's recently? Obviously different type of food but similar in its overpriced hype with bad service and worst of all mediocre product.
Oh Boy Burger, Queen and Portland
Another hyped but disappointing Toronto eating experience (eg Caplansky's). Overpriced and underwhelming food by poorly run restaurant.
In short: Confusing service and seating, missing menu items (out of onion rings and fountain drinks), orders misdressed (I asked for no mustard but got it but no mayo, 2nd burger asked for hold onions and got NOTHING but lettuce and tomato). 2 burgers cooked inconsistently, one medium well (good) other past well (bad). "Host" was overly attentive to young blondes rather than doing job of managing lines, crowd, sit-down vs. pickups.
Feel bad for cooks and prep chefs who are working with really inefficient system while in a fish bowl of people waiting 20+ mins for a burger to be cooked.
in the end, if the burger was outstanding one could excuse all the problems as growing pains but the burgers were average and overpriced.
ps- I know it's a different kind of place but patrons and management need to take a cue from In 'n Out and dim sum restaurants. When a place is operating at high volume don't just hang around talking with friends. Out of courtesy you should get your food, eat it and get up for the next person when you're done.
