We enjoyed a nice dinner here on a Friday night, which was suprisingly quiet. The decor is modern and comfortable. No windows, though - you have to go down an escalator to get to the restaurant. The food and service were excellent. Dilip did a great job taking care of our large group of 8 people. My only minor complaint was that the draft beers were not as cold as they should have been. But the meals themselves were hot, fresh and delicious.
We love the Pickle Barrel Yorkdale. It is a go to for us. Food is always good, huge selection with gluten free options, prices are reasonable and today's service by Lenny was fantastic. Her suggestions were helpful and water was always topped up. The atmosphere is pleasant and clean. We did not have to wait for a table and nobody rushed us out like some establishments do. The tomato soup and French onion soup are a must try along with the grilled cheese. Thanks again for a wonderful meal.
We had a big gathering for colleagues ( more than 25 ) and they gave us a nice table. I like pickle Barrel and it has been a long time I didn't go there. Their prices are much higher than they were before and smaller portion ( which seems to be the trend these days at most restaurants ). Most of us liked their food but I was soooooo disappointed with the bowl I got. It was sooooo small ( big bowl and small quantity ingredients )... the rice was like sticking to itself.. veggies were not fresh at all and the chicken had most pieces old with some bad taste.. we had also chicken fingers which were good. I can say, avoid the bowls!!! Even though we were many, the waiter was able to take all orders, split the bills, got the food and drinks on time. He was really good and attentive in a way knowing that the place was busy. I remember when I used to go to their downtown location ( which closed ) and the eglinton one and order some type of Asian salad which I loved, the portion was HUGE and always sooo fresh. No the salads are sooo small and expensive... Will I go there again, maybe... to pay a total of like 30 to 35 dollars ( food + fountain drink + tips ) to eat chicken fingers that I can do at home for less than 10 dollars is too much. I am afraid to order something else and pay more and end up with something like the bowl we ordered. Photo attached. Note: photo attached of the bowl 😁 don't be fooled that it appears so big, it is really half the size it appears and the chips on top makes it look big :))
