   We really enjoyed our lunches. Good portion size for the cost. Serving staff were very attentive and cheerful. We love the decor! Glad to see a restaurant of this calibre in this neighborhood. We shall be back!

   It's a good thing you're on OpenTable to book a reservation because Dave and LaVerne's is hopping! It took weeks to get a table there and we're glad we went. That said, it was VERY loud - to the point where one of our diners had to leave before the rest of us finished our meals because they felt so overwhelmed by the noise. If we were to go again, I would ask for a table on the outside as we were right in the middle of the restaurant. Our server was wonderful and friendly. He took our orders quickly and accurately. The food portions were huge, and overall the taste was good too. I ordered the club sandwich. Lots of good turkey, but one single thinly sliced tomato and single leaf of lettuce left me wanting a little more. The mac & cheese, chicken tenders and burger we ordered were all received well and we definitely took leftovers home. The (non-alcoholic) chocolate and strawberry shakes were delicious and huge. I recommend the fried brussels sprouts appetizer - it hit the savoury, sweet, crunchy, creamy notes.

   Awesome new restaurant. They honour Diners! Going back next week! The chicken fingers are the best in the entire city. The milkshakes are ridiculously good! All the food we had was awesome!

   The food was excellent. We had the Brussels sprouts and they were great! The chicken sandwich was one of the best I ever had. We also had the beet salad. Our sever (forgot her name) she was from England. She was so friendly and made such great recommendations. It is pretty loud but it was a cool vibe and the noise did not bother us.

    This was my first time trying this place out. The Brussel sprouts were SO good. My friend and I also shared the turkey club sandwich, fries and the garlic aioli. Delicious. Our services Madison said she was new and had only been there about a week and a half, she was amazing! Will definitely be going back.
