I thought Smuggler's was overrated.

My Top list is probably something like:

Ceasers
The Tribune
Bonterra
Moti Mahal (Best Indian food I have eaten)
Inglewood Pizza (Best pizza I've had. I tried Vogglio's and I didnt like it very much)

We dont really go to high dollar places, so its pretty basic stuff I've eaten. :dunno:

[nonlinear]

italian: sandro's or il centro (both have shit service, tho)

mexican: mi tierra, salt & pepper in bowness, or that modern mexican place downtown (forget the name)

pizza: matador, il centro, vogglio's (but very inconsistent)

donair/falafel: jewish place across mcleod from chinook (falafels deep fried to order! like it should always be done). wish i could find a good palenstinian place though.

sushi: wa's

chinese: china city

thai: thai sa on, the king and i

steak: i used to like hy's

[rmk]

In no particular order....

Taj Mahal
Silver Dragon
Centini
Falafal King


:rofl:

[GiangZilla]

Pho Dau Do
Moti Mahal
Cattle Baron
River Cafe

[dannie]

Steak: Mercato

Sushi: Tokyo Garden (Its close to my area of town:) )

Mexican: Mi Tierra

Thai: Chili Club Thai House

Indian: Moti Mahal for the Gobi Korma, Surahy/Rajdoot for Butter Chicken

Seafood: Catch

Falafel: The place across from Chinook

Italian: Mercato again. I like that its so fresh

Random favs: Bistro Twenty Two Ten, DiVinos, Tribune. River Cafe, The Ranche, Brava Bistro, Lazy Loaf and Kettle, Marathon, Muse, Teatros, Bavarian Inn, Route 40 Soup Co.....Oh god, I have to stop. There are waaaay too many :)

+1 for Thai Nonkai, the wife and I have been going there since it opened since we used to live not too far away and walk there.

Da Guido is definitely one of my favorites, but the one restaurant I wish that is still around is Mescaleros.

Smuggler's and Caesar's for steak.

Plaka's in Shawnessy for Greek food.

[nonlinear]

vintage steakhouse, are you kidding????

LOL

I used to stop in there for a few drinks before going out, and have had some food a few times, but I definately wouldn't give it 5 stars and especially wouldn't take someone there to 'make an impression' LOLOLOL

but then again you do live at the cecil

j/k hehe :nut:

[dannie]

^ I used to think it was good, but their food has gone downhill in the last year. If you want a good steak, Mercato is handsdown awesome. Wildwood has a very good one too.

[A790]

Haha I was there last night too. What did you have? My friend had the Tenderloin (delicious), and I had the Swordfish (also delicious).

What REALLY impressed me is that the last time I was there (May) I had a female server. When I went back today she was my server again... AND SHE REMEMBERED WHO I WAS AND WHAT MY FAVORITE DRINK WAS. Damn, now that's service!

[krazynammer69]

[DJ_NAV]

oriental dallas in NW is good...
theres another one in huntington that is good too... close to T&T supermarket.

[krazynammer69]

where is Oriental Dallas?

[imjimmylin]

It's in that little strip that's in the same parking lot as Bugaboos. It's downstairs though so you have to go in the front entrance and down the stairs.

[krazynammer69]

ok thanks

[DJ_NAV]

Originally posted by krazynammer69

its on 53rd st, south of dalhousie station.. in that strip mall with macs in it.

[a social dsease]

My favorite restaurants are the Pfanntastic Pannekoeken House, so damn tasty I love those fuckin pannekoeks, and Bolero because I love meat.

[petoria]

viet- noodle world
chinese- food in east or bobby chaos
sushi- towa or shikiji
white- vintage or ruth's chris?

[tm88]

Italian- La Luna Rossa and Pulcinellas
Vietnamese- Saigon Palace
Brazillian- Bolleros
White- Treasures of China:rofl:

[flipteck]

+1 :thumbsup: Bolleros Brazillian Steak House (All you can eat steak everyday! :drool: )

[cooperS]

my new favorite Vero Bistro on Kensington 10th street.
MUST TRY!

[Impreza]

Oceana!

[megavolt]

I used to eat at Smuggler's all the time, but the last few times I was there I wasn't impressed.

Usually go to the Cattle Baron for steak now.

Another place I love/hate is Bolero... that place just seems to be hit and miss service-wise. The first time we went I left stuffed and my plate was never empty. But a couple of times I've gone we were waiting 5-10 minutes between servers coming to us with meat. All depends how close to the kitchen you are and how busy the place is.
