Review: The fries were very good. They were slightly larger than typical, hand-cut and very crispy. There was a fair amount of cheese curds on them. Unfortunately, the gravy had a bit of a lack of flavour despite having a nice, dark colour and good texture. The cheese curds were good. Rating: 7.3/10

Mozza Pizza – Burger
Review: This will be harsh, but I’m talking about a pizza place, not a burger place, here. Still, if you have burgers on the menu, they should be better than what I received. The picture is misleading because I added my own slice of cheese thinking they forgot to include some, but there was some …
Mozza Pizza – Pizza
Review: This pizza was very doughy and heavy, but at least it was not raw, which can happen. The sauce was a lot sweeter than expected, which I kinda liked. There was a decent amount of toppings (sausage and onions), but it almost needed more because they were so generous with the cheese. I did …
Mozza Pizza – Poutine
Review: This poutine was ok. Every single element was acceptable, but nothing stood out as exceptional, poor, or interesting in any way. The ratio of cheese to gravy to cheese was just right. It was very safe. Rating: 5.9/10
Manhattan Handmade Burgers – Burger
Review: The patty was packed tightly and cooked well done. The cheese was very good. I opted for fried onions, shaved lettuce and mayo as my toppings. I was given several bun options and chose the brioche, which was lightly toasted. It was actually the best part of the burger. Rating: 7.6/10
Manhattan Handmade Burgers – Poutine
Review: The skin-on, hand-cut fries were lightly seasoned (they offered a spice blend that I could have used even more of) and very crispy. The gravy was a little thin, but not lacking in beefy flavour. It was generously covered in cheese curds. This was really a good effort. Rating: 8.1/10
Pizzeria da Romolo – Pizza
Review: This pizza was a good example of Neapolitan-style. The thin crust was pleasantly chewy and nicely charred. The sauce was pretty basic, but adequate. There was a reasonable amount of cheese. The sausage was nice and spicy, which was a pleasant surprise. I thought it needed more herbs. Some pizzas came with basil, which …
Baja Burger Shack – Burger
Review: The burger came with a pretty thick 6-ish ounce patty. It had a decent amount of cheese. The bun was quite soft and seemed eggy. The veggies were pretty standard. The separator here was the Baja sauce which was interesting – a very mild creamy chili sauce that I kinda wished included mayo. Rating: …
Baja Burger Shack – Poutine
Review: The frozen fries were large and mildly spiced. Unfortunately, they just couldn’t hold up to the gravy and became very mushy. The gravy was too thin and lacked flavour and there was not enough cheese. Rating: 4.7/10
Johnny Farina – Pizza
Review: The most distinguishing thing about this pizza was the crust which felt more like focaccia than typical pizza crust. It was a little light on the toppings, but what was there was pretty good, including some parmesan mixed with the cheese. The sauce was pleasantly sweet. Pieces were of varying thicknesses, so for thin …
