Great waffle fries but the price is the quality you pay for! Love the different ssauces they have. I like the Parmesan Peppercorn and the Sundried Tomato Mayo. Don't go on the weekends because its packed! more

The poutine is great and the variety of dips is great. The fries are not as good as those in Belgium or the Netherlands, but they are decent. more
