Cafe Diplomatico & Restaurant Toronto, ON
Located in Little Italy, offers both inside and outside patio dining. We chose outside since the weather was nice but the large windows on the restaurant were open and the freezing cold a/c spilled out and made the patio cold too. The food was wonderful. We ordered an antipasto appetizer with several types of vegetables, all fresh and high quality. I had a pasta with a spicy sauce. The sauce was barely spicy but it was still quite good. The best part of the whole meal was the beer. We had the house beer which was a bit of a dark lager. It had a really nice flavor, wish it was sold in bottles.
Shogun Japanese Restaurant Lenexa, KS
Hidden back in the shopping center with Sams Club. I've driven by here many times and didn't know it existed until I found a coupon in the Entertainment book this year. Overall this was a little above average for local Japanese steakhouses. I thought the steak & shrimp was great and the presentation was pretty good. I like the soup at other restaurants better.
Sakura Japanese Restaurant Shawnee Mission, KS
Average Japanese steakhouse. I've eaten at nearly every one in the area and since they're pretty much all the same price this was the one and only time I'll probably visit Sakura. I ordered steak & shrimp. The food quality was marginal to average. Presentation was good but didn't make up for the lower food quality.
Nikko's Japanese Steak House Shawnee Mission, KS
This one shows up in the Entertainment book with a buy one get one deal. I thought it was worth a try. I'd say it was very average for this area as far as Japanese Steakhouses go. I ordered steak & shrimp. I think the food quality was fine but not notably outstanding. The presentation wasn't nearly as entertaining as other Japanese steakhouses.
Pine & Bamboo Garden Shawnee Mission, KS
Much better than average Chinese restaurant in Shawnee. I had beef and green peppers and a bowl of hot & sour soup. Everything was great, I had no complaints at all.
Johnny Cascone's Restaurant Shawnee Mission, KS
Johhny Cascone's has great pastas... a huge variety to choose from. I went with a traditional spaghetti and it was great. I think overall the prices were very fair considering the type of restaurant. It is no doubt better than the Olive Garden!!!
Mr Goodcents Franchise System Shawnee Mission, KS
I prefer Goodcents over Subway any day of the week. I grabbed lunch here yesterday, I wish they were a little cheaper but I do think the quality is a lot higher than similar sub shops. I had an italian type sub with a few italian meets on it. I can't complain at all about the taste, it did the job.
Old Country Buffet Shawnee Mission, KS
Need I say, JUST SAY NO! It is a family style buffet, but they must cater to those old enough to have lost their tast buds already. Most items were over seasoned or sauced... something I find typicall at restaurants like this. It covers up any natural taste the meat or vegetable might have had... but we'll never know will we?
Taste of China Shawnee Mission, KS
Not bad at all. I eat a lot of Chinese food, so I can quickly pick out the ones who don't use quality meats, sauces, and vegetables. I got beef with green peppers with an order of hot and sour soup. The beef was better quality and it seems like they actually made the sauce themselves rather than taking it from a La Choy can like a lot of chinese restaurants seem to. Their hot and sour soup really hit the spot. I can recomend this one for you.
Scoreboards Restaurant & Bar Shawnee Mission, KS
The last reviewer couldn't have said it any better. The smoke was so thick you could cut it. The food is all bar food. We tried an appitizer sampler and none of the items included were any good at all. The potato skins were mushy, buffalo wings had WAY too much sauce on them... I ordered chicken, I want to be able to tast the chicken... take a hint the sauce should only be for accent not to cover the taste of the chicken!
Taco Via Shawnee Mission, KS
It is a good alternative to Taco Bell. I actually do like their tacos here better. The food is certainly all cheap, so you can have a good sized lunch without spending more than $5.
Side Pockets Shawnee Mission, KS
This place has a fun atmosphere because of the pool tables. The food isn't great, but not as bad as some other bars in the area. Prices are reasonable in my opinion... most bars like to really give it to you with food prices. I can certainly recomend this to others.
Hereford House Kansas City, MO
The steaks are great, but of course that is what they are known for. Having said that, they are really over-rated. For the price of a nice steak here you can get much better in Kansas City at other high end restaurants. They are a regional chain restaurant and they show it... it doesn't have the atmosphere I look for in this price range... Steak good but not the best and atmosphere leaves something to be desired.
Gables St Andrews, NB
Great seafood restaurant right on the waters edge. During the summer time when it is warm they have a large outdoor dining area right on the waters edge (at high tide only of course --- this is the Bay of Fundy remember) The focus here is on Lobster and other Canadian maritime seafood. They also offer an array of sandwiches and daily specials. I tried a half cold lobster plate and have no complaints at all with it. My wife orderd mussels from Prince Edward Island. The portion size of the mussels is certainly large. Some folks at the table next to us orderd a huge lobster. I want to say it was 8 pounds... by far the larges lobster I have ever seen. I heard the waitress say they don't normally have one that large there, but they can always order it for you if you request it ahead of time. Talk about great service... Wow. This is a highly recomended stop for you if you're going into St. Andrews for a whale watching tour or anything else for that matter.
Gould's Fried Clams Shediac, NB
Located right on the main drag in Shediac, this is an easy stop after a day at nearby Parlee Beach. Offerings are basically all fried something or other from the ocean. Fried clams, shrimp, fish, and even scallops were the most popular items on the menu. I had the fried shrimp and my wife orderd fried clams. Both were good, not outstanding though. This isn't a gourmet restaurant by any means, but it isn't a place to be avoided if you're looking for a nice budget meal.
Mai Tai Restaurant Presque Isle, ME
We were there during lunch time and got the buffet. I would say the selection was small, but probably large considering what part of the country we were in. The quality however left a lot to be desired. It wasn't terrible, I have had worse. Avoid the Hot and Sour soup at all costs, they make it with tomato sauce.
Big Boy Family Restaurant Perrysburg, OH
Very friendly staff. That was a complete shock to me, since we walked in 30 minutes before closing. I expected them to try to rush us out, but they certainly didn't. The greeter and our server were both very nice, much more so that I get in more expensive restaurants. I ordered a pot roast sandwich which was pretty decent. My wife ordered chicken noodle soup which was made with homemade style noodles. Her soup was also pretty good. This was a good stop after a long day of driving, and certainly wasn't disappointing given expectations.
Waffle House Girard, OH
Ok, it is a waffle house, I don't know that they vary much across the country. The food was quite average as expected. I ordered country ham wich came with eggs and hash browns. The staff did seem more intelligent than the average waffle house staff however, so I can recomend this particular one for that reason.
Peking Chinese Restaurant Watertown, SD
This is a decent Chinese restaurant. We stopped here on the way home from Canada, in this part of the country pickins are slim. We were actually the only customers in the restaurant until just before we left. I would say the food is average. The sauces didn't taste like they were from La Choy, which is a plus... I've been to plenty of other chinese restaurants that seem to get their sauces from their cans. Vegetables were fresh cut, again they didn't look to be from cans either. Don't go out of your way to eat here, but if you are passing through Watertown and need to eat it isn't a bad choice.
Kfc Grand Forks, ND
This is one of the KFC restaurants with a buffet. Don't get suckered into the buffet. The variety of items isn't that great. Most likely you can get everything you want from the buffet off the menu in a combo meal for less $$. OK, so maybe you're a big person and you really are going to eat 4 chicken breasts and 5 servings of mashed patatoes?? Not likely but if that is you then you need to stop.. it isn't healthy and if you do that at KFC regularly you'll end up having a heart attack.
