This was one of our favourite spots until today when our friend’s allergic reaction was handed extremely poorly! She has a nut allergy, prior to ordering she asked if her dish contained nuts and she was assured there was no nuts in the dish. After asking again we were assured that the only dish with nuts in it is the peanut butter pie. Through the whole ordeal she was never asked if she was ok, or if she needed anything else. The manager never once came to our table to check on her, only communicated through the waitress. She ended up having to use her Epipen in their washroom and nearly vomited on the way home. And to top it all off she was handed the bill to her meal! We will not be going back ever.
Cozy place to go to on a cold winter Eve. Interesting beer selections on tap. Reasonable prices and tasty entrees. Friendly staff. I will definately be returning.
I’ve been going to a lot of places on 104st and Blue Plate Diner caught my eye. My girlfriend and I went during lunch time on Friday. Evidently it was busy but we got seated right away. The place is has got a old school vibe to it with brick and tarnished metal tables. Their menu is standard fair; salads, burgers, couple mains, nothing too exciting here to be honest. Now time of ordering was around 12:00pm and my girlfriend got a Orangina and I got their Strawberry Lemonade which was pretty dope and not overly sweet. Now our food did not arrive until 12:45 which was a real buzzkill. But when the ice in your drink has fully melted and your food hasn’t arrived yet then that’s a real shame. My girlfriend got their BBQ Meatloaf Sandwich and it was pretty tasty. Meatloaf had a nice soft texture and the BBQ was spot on. The Ciabatta bread wasn’t the best as it was already falling apart on the plate. I got their Bison & Duck confit burger and this was truly forgettable. I doubt there is enough duck confit in the patty to be detectable cause I couldn’t taste any. Besides that the toppings were meh and my beloved Brioche bun was beyond soggy when I took my first bite. The burger did nothing for me but fill my stomach. Their fries are pretty bomb though but they give you the tiniest portion of ketchup you would get at McDonalds in the classic paper cups. Blue Plate Diner has a nice lively vibe to it but not for me. Another restaurant on 104st down and I personally won’t be coming back anytime soon.
I thought I had done a review on Blue Plate but looking back, I haven’t. Here it is. I think blue plate is a very standard and hip kind of place. It doesn’t have a lot of things surprising you but the small menu and local flavours are definitely there. It’s kinda like a sugar bowl. Good contemporary Canadian food. If you are sick of chains then this is the place to be.
This is a staple of dining downtown; it’s comfort food taken to the next level. The burgers are amazing and the green onion cakes are the best in town. I’ve tried almost everything else on the menu and haven’t been disappointed.The patio is small but comfortable. There are 6 rotating beer taps, and pints are $5 during happy hour. The few times that we’ve had wine, it’s been a good selection. Overall, it’s hard to fault this gem.
This was disappointing. Service was fine, but slow (kitchen seemed a bit slow perhaps?). Ordered duck burger special – it was just ok, not anything to rave about, and pork loin. Pork was almost non-existent on the plate… and very dry. I think maybe they ran out of meat? I’d have been happy if they’d told me there wasn’t enough to go around and chosen something else. As it was I got 5 very small, dry pieces and lots and lots of potatoes, onions and carrots to fill up the plate. Tasty but not good value for $24. Maybe another time would be better… Hope they can improve
I love the cozy and casual atmosphere here. They offer a breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner menu. They are also have gluten-free and vegan options. The food is an interesting mix of contemporary comfort food that I enjoyed. Good portion sizes but a little bit pricey. Lunch for two with one drink each and an appetizer to share was $60. chrissymeetsworld.com
