seine river cafe

mmmm steak. i went on a friend's recommendation to seine river and i really did love it. i had the steak sandwich and it was great! i hear they have excellent breakfasts and i'm eager to gobackto try something new.
decor is enh but prices are low and flavour is high. the wait staff is very very nice too. i certainly recommend it!

i love seine river cafe. the food is fantastic. excellent chicken burgers and clubhouse. breakfast special is tasty and satisfying. the service is fast and friendly. the only drawbackis its small dining room and cramped tables. beacuse its usually busy the noise level can a bit much. small sacrifice for a great restaurant. i will return again and again.

tried this place for lunch and very busy but worth the wait.  ordered the grilled chicken caesar's salad and was very good. fast friendly service with ample parking. i'll bebackto try their breakfast/brunch.

i used to love this place! i even got others to go and they loved it too but this place is not what is used to be. the restaurant was only at half capacity and we were waiting over an hour for our food (and still never got it). there was an endless line of to go containers going up in the window and no plates! they have decided to completely neglect customers and focus solely on their skipthedishes orders. this was my second visit this year and both times were a horrible experience. i will never gobackand i will share that sentiment with anyone who cares to hear it.

came here for a later lunch, had the chicken caesar wrap with fries and a side of gravy, and the kids chicken finger meal. the kids meal can with two decent sized fingers that were cooked well but were very bland. fries with both orders were store bought, not homemade and i found the gravy to be a touch too salty for my liking. the chicken caesar wrap was ok…it would've been better if the chicken was even throughout the wrap. it was cut in half and one side had most of the chicken and the other most of the salad.
i'd comebackand try it again though.

absolutely worst customer service i have ever had in my life.  all the prices on the menu are wrong, their steak sandwich platter is now $18.99 gone up from $13.99. we had to have the person who answered the phone call usbackto tell us different prices multiple times. when i had cancelled the order for the steak sandwich and calledbackto order something else she had explained the other order was already ready was i sure wanted to order more, well no i suppose not? so now my office is all ready to eat besides myself. very unimpressed with this business, i had never been, my work is across the street, and it would've been very easy to make a customer out of me considering i order food daily but no. i officially will never try seine river cafe. 

sincerely, 

not a fan.

great hashbrowns. we come here for breakfast now and again. i have had other things from the menu though. the homemade chicken fingers are quite good (as long as they aren't overcooked), as are the homemade onion rings. however, i usually just stick tobackbacon and eggs. the shredded hashbrowns have arrived perfectly each time. always crispy but never greasy or under done.

shocked by all the good reviews.... super expensive for a diner. i thought we'd stumbled upon a hidden gem but not in the slightest. typical diner food, typical quality and certainly nothing special. the service wasn't great, especially considering that we went mid-afternoon and it wasn't very busy. i ordered a club sandwich without tomato but of course it arrived with it. i sent itbackand by the time it camebackout to me, my boyfriend had finished his meal, even though mine was apparently being fixed "right away". with two club sandwiches and one coffee, the meal came to $30 before the tip. if the food had been special, different or even above average, i could have understood the price, but with the food being what it was and the inside of the diner looking like it hadn't been updated in decades (mismatched chairs at all the tables) i have to shake my head at this place.

yeah baby! 4 eggs, side bacon,backbacon, ham, and sausage all on one plate. you could also ask for a couple slices of cheddar cheese on the side to round the meal out. delicious!

the seine river cafe is a popular spot and they don't take reservations. 11 burger clubbers showed up at 11:30 thinking we'd beat the lunch rush but instead caught the tail end of the breakfast crowd of shiftless seniors. as dawdling diners finished up, the team of waitrii assembled tables for us like lego. there was much consternation among them as they pushed tables around before grudgingly settling on an l-shaped configuration. i ended up in the bushes and cary got the corner leaving hisbackexposed to attack from the rear, but as he put it “ i enjoyed being molested, repeatedly, by april. i usually have to pay extra for that .” it’s a nicely decorated restaurant and jo-ann “ enjoyed the interesting artwork while waiting for food .” the service really was great â€" even at the tail end of breakfast when the waitresses were probably expecting to

yummy hash browns!!!. always searching for a good sunday breakfast joint. i have to admit that i wasn't too thrilled to go here especially since it didn't look that inviting as we drove up to the place. but don't judge a book by its cover right? actually, i had a great breakfast. this place was busy but not packed so we got a seat right away (granted we were arriving well after 1 pm). they serve breakfast all day so that's a plus.

i ordered the "canadianbackbacon and eggs" breakfast ($6.99) which includes toast (rye, white or brown) and hash browns or 3 buttermilk pancakes. i asked our server if she preferred the hash browns or the pancakes and she was emphatic that hash browns were the way to go. and boy was she right, i loved the hash browns here - probably one of the best i've had. they were loosely shredded potatoes (with some onion for flavour) and had a fantastic crispy exterior but perfectly cooked interior. it was almost like a latke except it wasn't (if that makes sense). they were perfectly seasoned - i'd gobackjust for the hash browns alone! the scrambled eggs and canadian bacon were fine - you can't mess that up too much. portions are good for the average person and prices are decent.

went again and instead of toast/hashbrowns, i added fruit for an extra $2.49 to my breakfast. it was a large portion of super fresh and delicious fruit! great price to have nearly half my plate full of bite sized pieces of cantaloupe, honeydew, apples and bananas. the pancakes are fluffy and thick - a nice treat but i think 3 on a plate are too much carbs for me.

my two issues with the place are:
- oj is from concentrate and not fresh (not that they claimed that) but i prefer fresh juice
- toast was dripping with butter - i don't mind pre-buttered toast but there was way too much for my liking so i'll have to remember to tell them to skip that step. the good thing is that they bring you out an old school rack of pb and various jams in those disposable single serving packages (i haven't seen those in a while).

otherwise, food service was prompt and the servers are super efficient and friendly! the decor is nothing special, things look a little cluttered as there are shelves in the dining room that act as extra storage for inventory. nonetheless, the place feels warm and inviting.
