	This place was very good. It is right on the beach as the name says and can serve as vanue to several occasions and events. The scenary is beautiful being right there on lake Ontario. I was there at sunset and it was quite good. The patio is what makes this place, however the inside is quite decadent. The drinks are reasonably priced, however their menu seemed just a bit high. The food was great. I had artichoke mediterranian dips for an app, and I was pleasently suprised. I would suggest that to my best of friends! I also had a shrimp pasta in a white wine sauce that was also quite good. Buyer beware, no free refills on the soda. The dessert menu was small, but I had a piece of cheesecake that was one of the best I have ever tasted. The service was very friendly as well, and very accomodating. Cleanliness seemed fine. The place can also serve as a dance club on some nights, as well as a bar. While I was there, it seemed that some kind of reception was going to be held there. I also was impressed with how the place has its own private dock, so people can sail their boats right up to Barangas.

	Good place, not a huge favorite, but I never turn an oppurtunity to visit.

	Very yummy place. I stop there when I am in the mall. The place is kept very clean and the food is cooked fresh. I am fond of the teriyaki chicken rice bowl. They can be stingy on the sauce. I usually have to ask them.

	This place is very enjoyable and it is always a nice change of pace. The potatoes that they serve are among the best I have had and the come with every meal. The place is decorated very nicely. Great mediterrean feel. The portions are well sized for a great value. Their ribs are also very good. The servers I come across are Ok, they sometimes seem a little stressed and I have heard stories of them snapping on people. opa!

	This is good little place to go, it is not a great place. It's got a smoke room, which is a plus. The service is friendly. I have to say that the food is pretty good as well. Never had a bad meal yet there. A long time ago I had a server who took 4 hours to bring a bowl of chilli, but that is another story. They also seem to smile, it has a big baseball feel to it, which I am not huge on but it is pretty cute.

	A great little spot on the Burlington lakeshore. I will admit I go there more to drink than to eat. The menu is decent and fairly priced. The atmosphere is splendid.

8	Sun Jun 13 14:07:55 2004	Ontario	Burlington	Chaps Restaurant	5.20
	It has a pretty good menu. It is pretty small and the southwestern theme is a little overdone. The service is not very good, almost a snobish feel.

9	Sun Jun 13 14:05:48 2004	Ontario	Burlington	Boston Pizza	7.60
	Pretty good food and service. Very nice colourful atmosphere. I had a pasta dish, it was seasoned and delightful. I recomend this place.

	I used to work at this restaurant so I may have a little more insight than others. Before I worked their, I was a customer and fan of the place. When the place first opened it was the happening place. The place was booming with excitement, the service was friendly and the atmosphere was original. Over time the place lost a bit of its flare, which can be expected. The kitchen is not kept very clean. Most of the management seems strung out and edgey. The food is ok, they have some original dished such as the Prime Minister burger, a few of their pasta dishes and the buffalo wrap. The wings are pretty good, but I saw first hand how they were kept half cooked in a bucket on the floor next to the mops and stuff prior to being ordered a cooked. Don't be fooled. They are not dirty, they are just not super clean. The bar is good, they just recently changed locations and seem to have a new approach. But what seems to be the main issue is the restaurant is the service. Ok, they go out of their way to hire busty, young, hot and dumb women. They are generally conceited, moody and rude. I have seen them (tsk-tsk) out customers on more than one occasion, and quite frankly is just doesn't sit well with me. I hardly ever go there anymore, and when I do I am not very impressed.

	Really greasy kinda joint. Service is ok, not too chatty. Place is a little unclean. Basically a good stop on the way to or from Montreal is you want authentic Quebec poutine or greased up pizza.

13	Sun Jun 13 13:27:12 2004	Ontario	Burlington	Q B Sports Emporium	8.20
	Q.B.'s is the best bar in Burlington by far. The place is a little run down but it has a really rustic homey feel to it. There is a lot of sport merchandise all around. The service is fantastic and friendly. The smoke room is a plus for those of us who enjoy watching the game with the boys. The food is really good. Their tequila lime fettucine is to die for and the rest of the menu is also good. The prices are about average, which is impressive for an indepedent restaurant. The monday and wendesday night ribs are delicious and a great value.

14	Sun Jun 13 13:08:37 2004	Ontario	Burlington	Tucker's Marketplace	7.00
	The feature of the night at this rather upper middle class all you can eat buffet was the BBQ chicken, which I was delighted with. The restaurant is set up like a market, fun idea....it can get crowded at certain areas. Our table was a little far from the buffet area, so that was a little bit of hassle, but we still got a table on a walk in. Server was nice, a little slow considering she just had to bring us drinks. There are some neat perks of this restaurant. The salad area is quite diverse, there is an activity centre which is great, and the pasta on demand with personalized ingredients is a plus. The activity on the nite I went was tacos, which I liked a lot. One of the good things about buffets like this one is that you can sample all kinds of things you would not normally order. I would say it was all good from a taste and food quality point of view.

15	Sun Jun 13 13:00:53 2004	Ontario	Brampton	Wong's Restaurant	7.80
	Really good buffet, one of the best I have ever had. I was impressed with all of the selection offered, including a sushi bar. Service was nice, and they gave me a hot towel at the end. A little on the expensive side compared to other chinese buffet's, but well worth it. It can be a little hard to find on Queen street if you are not from the area.
