Reviews of Take 2 Restaurant & Bar (Fish Shop)

Bill Fancy

What a mess! As per usual, the temperature was uncomfortable in the restaurant due to a terrible heating and cooling system. Also, not only did we get a glass that had lipstick on it, but, we also received a tartar sauce that had been used. It was blatantly obvious that a chunk was missing from the tartar sauce with fork marks in it. When the owner came over to talk to me about it, he became enraged and stated that it was impossible. Eventually he stormed back to the kitchen after offering me no form of compensation and began to scream erratically. Throughout this whole mess of a visit, our waitress Katie was amazing. She is a truly lovely person.

Probably the best kept secret in Fort Erie for food. Everything I’ve had has been delicious. A must try!!!

The fish was great.Was a friday special.They have 2 sizes to choose from. Good for small or large eaters. The staff was very accommodating. there is other items on the menu I want to try. We will be back to enjoy.

Just had drinks, but the manager was awesome!

Mudd Mann

Totally agree with Pat Shaddocks review. Great food great service and we all agree Katie is our favourite waitress ever!! We always call ahead as a courtesy instead of walking in with 6 or 8 people. Sorry to say we will not be doing this again after being scolded lately by who I believe is the manager for not calling by 2:00 for a table at 6:30. The restaurant is empty by 7 to 7:30 so dont understand. We do not think this an appropriate way to treat loyal customers who have been regulars for years through good times and bad.

Great food, horrible service. Too bad the owner is a very skilled and talented chef. The problem with this place is the hired help. The manager is ill equipped to deal with the public and there is a constant turn over in help. Because of poor management we had to wait almost an hour for our food to arrive. When it finally arrived it was out of order, with the appetizer arriving after the main course, which finally arrived cold. Upon complaining to the waitress we had the manager approach our table. She was belligerent and confrontational. We told her that we did not feel that we should have to pay for cold, late food and she removed our food from the table. We left the establishment and will never return to eat there again.

If I could give it zero stars that’s what I would give it. The food was just plain gross garlic bread looked like it say foe awhile my chicken souvlaki was grey and no dressing for my Greek salad it was just gross will never return.

Walked in with my family for a bite to eat and a drink..there was a fight going on as soon as we walked in. We ended up being told the bar was closed in a unfriendly kinda way..even though they didn't have it on their sign or online...and they had 5-6 people already sitting at the bar. ????‍♂️ It's was totally fine with me, I walked out and won't be back. Tried this bar a few times. I liked it better in the old days.

The restaurant was clean looking and the booth was comfortable and that unfortunately is all it had going for it. After a glass of wine and waiting for chicken tenders for over 1 hour and watching everyone else around us get served we go up went to the bar to pay for the wine to leave. The waitress was scattered and unfocused the whole time we were there running around talking on the phone and told us the meal delay after asking was because the chef was new(he was not). Another server offered the wine as complementary and a free meal. Which was nice however we will not be back. This is the 2nd bad experience

Rob McConnell

Good food, great service.

Karen Lauzon

Great food and service ambiance can't say enough

Justin E

I've been a few times. They make a patron feel welcome despite a lot of other places having a tense covid environment. They don't

Patricia Shedden

Great service, nice atmosphere and very delicious wings, siracha and honey, and Japanese curry and rice. Will definitely go back when we can

micky kent

I went in last night for a pint and some wings with my sister good food great manager!

Peter Kingston

As locals of Fort Erie, my wife and I always see cars in the parking lot and finally having a chance too, we did exactly that. Our server was a very kind down to earth young man who did a great job of checking on not only his but his other tables. The food was served in a very timely manner and arrived hot. The quality was simply delicious, we really enjoyed it and will definitely be going back

Ray Rosettani (Fort Erie REALTOR)

Good variety on the menu. Food was great and they do not scrimp on the serving sizes.. Fully licenced. Service was excellent. Prices were very good. Good amount of free onsite parking.

Mark Argentino

It's your run of the mill facility

A random stop for lunch. We drove nearby and looked on Google maps where are the near by restaurants and navigated to a cluster of them. Stopping in the first one to look what are the options and on the way looked at the menu. I am usually more picky then my wife but she was hungry and said it looks fine to here so we set down. Surprise place! Really. We ordered from the lunch menu but the full menu looked good too. My pulled pork with fries was homemade, done perfectly bun was seared and didn't fall apart which happens when the pork is so moist. Fries are homemade and were just the right way. Great choice of russet potatoes and good Doble fry. My wife's beef wrap was excellent too and the chowder soup was very good. Tiramiso was done just right (I like mine with coffee and liquor and this version had a different syrup, but that's just a preference of mine) and was very generous. Coffee was fresh and huge. Service is meticulous. My Beer had a problem and was replaced immediately. I don't know if the line was not flushed or if it was the end of a kag but they closed it immediately to replace a kag even though the waitress said it was recently replaced, to avoid any problems with next customers. I usually get bad surprises (last night was one in a different place) and not enough good ones and this place was definitely a great one.This place feels professional. Service, food, ambiance, cleaning. We will definitely come again when covid will pass.

Very nice decor, much nicer than expected. Good service, reasonable prices, especially the luncheon specials! Everyone in our little group enjoyed their choice of food. Second visit on Monday, chose to sit on the patio. I really enjoyed my souvlaki, but we were surprised at the generous size of the steak hoagie! Good was really delicious, but what made this visit remarkable was our server, Quincy. The three of us agreed that his service was the best any of us had ever received, welcoming and attentive without being fawning. We will definitely be back

William Taylor

My wife & I thought we would try Take 2. Our usual place we go to is either closed or just shutdown. We gave it a shot. Food was great. Waitress Jen was pleasant & treated us good. Price was decent. Atmosphere with all considering Covid 19 was fun & inviting. We will be returning

Sarah Hart

Enjoyed this local restaurant for dinner last night. Food was great - server Katie was friendly and very efficient. We will definitely be back!

Larry Miles

Love the food & service BUT lack discipline regarding masks for health measures

Diane Huczek

Great selection and service at this location and very friendly staff. Very large layout, plenty of space at tables and nicely decorated throughout - this location is recommended!

Tom Johnson

$15 / bucket Beer!

Elizabeth van Oudheusden

Nice atmosphere. Regular fare here but the chef is Korean and has a list of noodle and meat dishes with a Korean touch. I had the thin noodles with beef. The beef was delicious and the noodles awesome. Would highly recommend this restaurant.

G. Miller

Outdated and backwardy...

Ronald Ryckman

They were able to accommodate 7 U11 boys and families (17 in total)! Quincy, our waiter, was fantastic, bringing the boys cut up oranges for their last game. Food was excellent! Above and beyond service!

Billy Moussias

Ordered take out from here. Lady behind the bar was pouring shots for herself and 2 other guys. Ignored me for about 5 min until I asked where I pick up my take out order. She proceeded to tell me she was off at 4 (this was 7pm) and to go ask the girl at the front. Why is there a lady behind the bar drunk pouring shots for her friends after her shift was over for 3 hours?? Food was decent but clearly need some better management. Also I hope she paid you for all the liquor she was drinking. Lol

Jean

Our visit here was OK. I wouldn't say it was something special. The server was polite and friendly. They atmosphere was nice. I don't think it to be fair to judge a place's entire menu on what I ordered today. I would go again and try something else before I up or downgraded my four star evaluation.

Beverley Ashey

Rude staff and mediocre food.

Justin Rutter

We went tonight for the wings because of the wing special . That was a mistake. The service was very slow. We waited about an hour for 2 pounds of wings. My boyfriend asked for spicy and extra saucy wings...they were extremely dry. Barely any sauce and not spicy. No blue cheese or celery/carrots...we didn't even get napkins or plates. They weren't that busy (maybe 4 other tables outside) but they said they were short staffed and that was why it was taking a while. But really...1 hr for 2 pounds of wings?!?...doesn't make sense to me. Unfortunately the server wasn't very attentive to us...I don't know if it was because we changed tables and requested a table on the patio or if she was just not able to keep up with the guests. I am usually really patient and give people the benefit of the doubt but the service was pretty terrible. We paid $38 for half decent food, 2 beers and poor service. My money would be better spent somewhere else. The wings weren't bad but they definitely needed more sauce. Maybe it was just an off night. Not sure if we will return though....pretty disappointed with the whole experience. I even saw one of the servers standing at the bar and playing on their cell phone...guess they were too busy to serve their guests properly...

Irmgard Upmanis

Food is hit and miss depending on what you order. The burgers and wings are good. The fried chicken was disgusting. Not sure If they ran out of what they usually use. But we got a couple breasts of breaded no bone chicken breasts with the consistency of Subways grilled chicken. Rubbery and nasty. Prices aren't bad wait staff was friendly. FYI they do nothing for birthdays.

Susan Thom

Great main bar area ... food is fantastic and offers a really good breakfast menu as well.

Hilary Hale

The food was good, the waitress was terrible. I asked for napkins and silverware .. eventually i had to go inside and the bartender got it for me.

Chelsea Waters

Over priced, poor quality of food which had no taste. The waiter was polite, courteous but over rated the food on the menu. Although the restaurant is owned by Koreans, and the cook was Korean, their Korean menu left a lot to be desired. If you are looking for a place to have a few beer and hang out with friends, I imagine this would be a good place. However, the quality of the Korean food and the size of the portions leave a heck of a lot to be desired. We would not return there ofr suggest to anyone.

Fred McNamee

I did take out and it was on time. Food was very good.

Worst customer service ever, I have never felt so unwanted in a restaurant. The servers will push customers away, we came with a party of 15 and they basically told us to leave. I called to make reservations but got denied so we showed up with time to spare and they just kept making excuses to not serve us. Just beyond rude, I am never ordering from this place again and I'll pass the horrible experience on to everyone I know in this small town.
