I was a little nervous after reading a couple bad reviews, but I’m so happy we still went. We went for a late dinner as a stagette party and had a dairy allergy in the group. The staff were quick, friendly, and accommodating. The service was great and the food was top notch. The Caesars were delicious! Great prices and portions. I got the chicken bacon Alfredo poutine and packed half of it to take home. Would definitely go again!
The steak and lobster is a favorite. It's steak cooked how you like it, sliced and served on a piece of garlic toast and topped with lobster meat and Bernaise sauce. I enjoy it with mashed potatoes for the option, and it comes with seasonal veggies as well. I devoured this meal that I enjoyed with a pint of Mountain Ape IPA from our local brewery, Rival Trade. My meal was excellent and so was the service. My mom, who is a fussy eater, and a self-proclaimed fish snob and gravy snob, ordered fish and chips with gravy. She said the gravy was good, the crispy coated fries were great, but she didn't care for the fish. It was somewhat dense, and definitely not battered in house. Next time we enjoy a meal here, she will likely go back to her regular choice, baked lasagna with garlic toast, which she always ends up bringing half home for another meal. I never seem to have leftovers here. I gobble it all up, unless I filled up on local beers before a big burger meal
This is by far my favorite place to eat now! My ceaser salad was fantastic! The steak was just as impressive. This is a road trip worthy restaurant! Come check them out!
Update. What's going on here? I'll add a picture of what we just ordered and what we got. There is literally like a handful of fries here - for POUTINE!! And as a side. This place used to be really good with quantities of food. What happened? Time to switch to Mr. Mikes? Our server was super friendly and hospitable. Food was great and exceptionally well priced. Update: recently had their pizza and really liked it. The crust was light, not the heavy greasy mess that the pizza chains serve up. Another update: you have to order the dry ribs. Big, lots of meat and sooooo good.
Excellent New York steak! If you're visiting town, Rocky has some great independent steak restaurants, I'm not fond of the chain steakhouses that are in town, they can be real hit or miss. I stick with Fo4ty 8ight steaks and Cucina Restaurant steaks, restaurants for different dining experiences & budgets. One is casual, one is upscale for certain I'll get a wonderful steak at either one - and support local business owners! During my most recent visit to Fo4ty 8ight On a Friday evening. Our waitress was attentive and checked on our table regularly - excellent. I enjoyed one of the best New York Steaks! Perfectly cooked to medium rare - with perfect grill marks - excellent. Served with Grilled (real fresh veggies, not frozen) were flavourful and carrots were still nice with a pleasant el dente to them - not over cooked. Starter soup Crab Dill was absolutely delicious and well made - perfect for the -20°C outside weather that particular day. I'm a local and recommend this restaurant. Food quality, portion size, price & service.
We had been out in mountains for the morning and desided to stop in Rocky for a bite on owh. I ordered the prime rib beef dip. It was pretty good, cheesey, mushroomy, and a fair amount of beef. The fries were crisp and hot. Perfect plate of food and my glass never emptied. Place could be a bit cleaner imo, cutlry was glued to the napkins with spilled idk what. Waitress was a complete sweetheart just an amazing host, caring and funny. Im glad we stopped in. Id eat here again.
The food was simply amazing! The steak was so tender and juicy, perfectly done. The poutine was so delicious, I had to order another portion to go. If we are passing through, I will definitely stop next time.
