Posted September 24, 20177 yr comment_293514 So anyone go anywhere good lately, with iHop opening on monday (surely this one will be better than the one in grand forks service wise) I'm kind of wondering if anyone has been anywhere decent recently a month ago I went with my friends to canadian brewhouse.....man that was a good burger but a word to the wise, do not get an appetizer if you also plan on getting the John Candy Burger it's the second most expensive thing there...but man those garlic fingers were excellent, but there were more than I thought so I asked "anyone want to share my fingers?" which they gladly did I can assure you that the John Candy Burger is nothing like whatever John Candy like item that Rumors Comedy Club has....it was just two patties compared to the Rita Challenge I'm not sure if anyone has made a restaurant thread yet so I'm just leaving this here Edited September 12, 20195 yr by iHeart
September 24, 20177 yr comment_293517 Doors will open at 8:00am plus the first 100 customers in line will receive FREE breakfast for a year!

September 24, 20177 yr comment_293531 My memories of IHOP in the States is literally a minor step up from Denny's. Nothing special at all. Local restaurants.... Phuong Nam is always great. I tried BMC Taqueria on Henderson last week and it was really tasty and cheap to boot.

September 24, 20177 yr comment_293550 Perkins used to leave the carafe as well or at least they did for us bouncers when we’d go there after work at 3am First time I went to vegas in 2008 my buddy insisted we go to IHOP as he had such a great experience there previously. I didn’t think it was anything special and he actually agreed it was better in his memories. I went to Rockwood bar & grill a few times and really enjoyed it. I can also attest to the sheer volume of the John Candy burger at Canadians Brewhouse. Big and good. They are building a Mr Mike’s in that same block. I enjoyed my one and only visit there when I was one Dauphin last year.
September 24, 20177 yr comment_293567 I also went to a place I think called Roxie's on the Red in Selkirk... you wouldn't think much of the place driving by. The food though is fantastic with massive portions and a wide variety. The jalapeno pulled pork sandwich is my go to dish when I visit.
September 25, 20177 yr comment_293803 As far as new places in town go, One Great City Brewing near Polo Park is a great, fresh spot. ONLY local brews available - excellent. Food I had was really good; though we went for le burger week.... so I haven't seen a regular menu. Decor and vibe was neat.
September 25, 20177 yr comment_293804 And not so much a restaurant, but seeing as how iHop is mentioned above.... There's some decent (&new) food options at Outlet Collection in the Ikea neighborhood. I had a Chachi's sandwich w/ mac&cheese from the food court.....very tasty. http://www.chachis.ca/ http://www.ogcbrewingco.com/

September 25, 20177 yr comment_293887 IHOP is probably a step down from Denny's.. why would anyone get excited about it?

I was just going to mention I went to One Great City on the weekend... I very much enjoyed it... I would recommend it for several reasons: 1. All craft beer, brewed in-house... 2. I had the pulled pork sandwich and fries... it was fantastic... didn't try any other food but I'm sure there's other gems on the menu... 3. It's local... you're supporting a Wpg business going there, not some major national or international chain... that's something that's important to me anyways...

Glad I'm not the only one who prefers to dine local! I'm from St.James, born & raised. We need more places like this succeeding in the neighborhood. Next time a friend suggests Smitty's for wing night, imma slap them and say OGC or nothing at all!
September 27, 20177 yr comment_294360 Yeah the food at OGC is top notch. I was actually pretty surprised.

October 16, 20177 yr comment_298296 I fondly remember going to Bonanza on Pembina because the Sundae's were do it yourself.

October 16, 20177 yr comment_298307 We prefer to support local business's as well instead of chains. I don't think we ever go to a chain for breakfast except when we're out of the city. Usually hit the Seine restaurant or something similar. For supper, we really like Aurora's on Corydon. Authentic Italian food. The owner and chef are from Rome. The sauce tastes just like my Italian mother in law use to make before she passed away. Really good gnocchi. The pizza is good, they used to have meatballs on the menu which were great. One of the servers there is a little slow, but the others are good. Edited October 16, 20177 yr by Logan007

I lived a block away on Dorchester last year and didn't notice these guys...
