Winnipeg Shop Local is a complimentary platform that aids neighborhood businesses in promoting their goods and services. When you back local establishments, you’re bolstering what sets a community apart. These hometown enterprises employ residents, support local charity drives, and take part in communal activities. Without such businesses, our communities wouldn’t thrive.
Not as good as I hoped. I doubt I’ll be returning anytime soon. Pros: Attentive service. Nice people. Busy but not crowded. Potatoes and mushrooms tasted fresh. Hummus and pita were very good although ready immediately. How fresh is the Hummus. Cons: Clearly all vegetables were from a frozen grocery store package. I’d know. All patrons (I counted perhaps 15-20) were over the age of 55. This is a con because the neighborhood is changing dramatically in the next decade. Be prepared. I am not confident that the salmon was not from frozen as well. The beer menu is very limited. Fort Gary is not local. Carry TCB, Non Such, Torque, Sookram etc. The people procuring and preparing the ingredients at this restaurant do not appear focused on healthful whole foods. Just my opinion. Lacking in love. Also: They serve breakfast but don’t open until late. No espresso machine. What a miss in revenue and business. They close at 830pm. Catering to seniors. It is so easy to look at a map of Charleswood to see there is only *one other place* for many kilometres in the south west to go have a drink. Stay open until 10 or 11, and pick up some good beers, you’ll be happy you did with the changing demographic. Good luck !
The food and the atmosphere was very high end. If you want to treat yourself, this is the place. The best Greek salad I have ever had. Actually everything is amazing 😀
I recommend the lemon soup, it was the highlight of lunch! The service was super friendly and the rest of the food was good and very generously portioned. I made an extra meal out of the leftovers.
Update: I went there with a group from work. The kitchen messed up my order (it came much later than my coworkers when we all ordered at the same time) and they made it up to me. Food is great and the service is excellent. First review: BIG portions--other reviewers were not exaggerating when they wrote that. Overall the food was delicious. The tatziki was a bit too lemony and the raw chopped onion on the calamari was off-putting. The moussaka was good but a bit too much cinnamon. The lemon rice soup was surprisingly tasty. The Lamb chops were tasty as were the mushrooms that accompanied them. Our server was friendly and the place was cozy.
Food was excellent, lots of it you won't go hungry here. Service was excellent and accommodating. Highly suggested.
