The three Molot sisters worked together to create an innovative coffee bar with light fare and 250 international magazines. Within months the customers requested that they get a liquor license, and so they did.
$20 entree that was just aweful. Overcooked, mushy and no taste. Very politely told waitress that I had to send it back as It wasn't good and not what I expected. She seemed nice at first...said she'd see what she could do...only to come back to charge me the full price for a meal I never ate, because it was inedible. After speaking with someone...it was knocked down to half the price...but seriously...any decent restaurant would NEVER charge a patron for a meal they returned, esp with no offer for a coupon for next time or something like that! No manager visit ...and a glare when we left. I never complain at restaurants but when you work hard for your money..and you go out to dinner to be treated well...that's what you deserve!! All about customer service, and great quality for what you are paying good money for...
The sandwiches had more bread than meat. Not worth it.. The Sweet Potatoe Fries now come in a small cup instead of a dish. Alot smaller dishes for the money. Way to expensive.
Parking is almost impossible.
Had the most uninspired veggie and hummous sandwich. All I could taste was dry bread and, speaking of dry, the chocolate pecan caramel cake was dry cake with hard caramel. Not at all a decadent treat and definitely not worth the calories. I'd go somewhere else next time I'm in Westdale.
The Bean Bar is a really good low key restaurant in the Westdale neighbourhood. They provide an extensive menu with a wide variety to choose from at a reasonable price.
The food is fantastic and comes in portions that are not overwhelming where you can't finish it - just perfect. I brought my parents here to see what it was like and it exceeded their expectations.
I had the ham and maple cranberry wrap and it was terrific. Definitely hit the spot.
The atmosphere of the restaurant is very relaxed and mellow which is nice to have conversation. It's a good place for lunch or an early supper.
The staff is super friendly so the service is great. If you're ever in Westdale, it's definitely worth checking out.
I went on a bi-weekly basis with my girlfriend for almost a year. Great food, especially the french onion soup and deserts. Had only one non hit throughout all my visits.
