"We stopped in for dinner during the Tall Ship's Festival - the food was hot and fast, appetizer came out quickly. Everything tasted great, and our server Shauntay was friendly and attentive. No pic of the Spinach Dip because it was gone too fast! Highly recommend the Chicken Quesadilla with guac!"

"I love giving restaurants food trucks all food service industry the best rate I can. Unfortunately Kelsey's really disappointed in our takeout order. We waited approximately 30 minutes for a meal which we ordered in the restaurant for takeout thank you God we check the bags . We were missing a meal we therefore wait another 30 minutes there's not much sense trying to write our frustration but this is a picture of the dip that was almost $16 for a heaping tablespoon. I even opened it inside and questioned is this the amount we're supposed to get. They said yes unfortunately that is the amount. You can see the bottom of the dish it didn't even cover the bottom"

"Firstly food- The drinks were astonishingly good. I got the frozen Bailey shiver. It was really good. And the blue ocean pina colada was also good. They were flavourful and the blended ice didn’t have any large pieces in it. The naan and spinach dip was tasty, but I feel the proportion could have been bigger and there wasn’t enough pita bread for the dip. I got the chicken parm with cheese garlic bread off the side. The chicken was a little too crispy at the edges and they skimped out a bit on the tomato sauce. The chicken was served hot which is good and the noodles were good, just a little more sauce would have added to the experience. We had the seasonal cobbler, which was apple for us, it was very good, soft and the cakey part was the best.
Service- our server was very attentive. He was pleasant and kind. And determined for the customers to have a good experience. The host had seated us quick and nothing took too long when it came to the service.
Atmosphere- it definitely feels like a bar and grill restaurant. It was nice. I did notice that the seats in the booths were a little torn up in areas. I feel like repairing these could be good for bringing up the aesthetic of the establishment.
Cleanliness- It was clean. Check your salt shakers before using. There was a black substance in ours, so I didn’t use it."
