the crazy canuck

stopped in at the crazy canuck after visiting st.jacobs market. it is quite a small restaurant, but aren't those the real gems? they take on a southern style approach to food with bbq ribs, baked hot dogs and the best burger in town! i kid you not, it's called the best burger in town and for good reason! the food is delicious, and thestaffare friendly. my only gripe was the size of the place. lots of ample parking also. all in all, worth a look, just hope it's not jam packed!

disappointing food. i liked the casual atmosphere but disappointed by the food. when i visited it was quite clear that the kitchen cooks and up frontstaffwere untrained. my order was placed and proceeded to sit down to wait for my meal. the up frontstaffthat took my order came to inform me that what i ordered was now unavailable (sold out) and i should choose and alternative. my soup arrived and it was burnt......yes burnt! then my main order arrived and it was sub standard at best. when i complained about the soup the reply i got was "yes, that was from the bottom of the pot"

it is quite evident that these people are very inexperienced restaurateurs.

my new favourite restaurant. my girlfriend and i got lost on the way due to the directions posted on urbanspoon (look them up beforehand, it's by the antique shop in st. jacobs). when we got there we were greeted by the extremely friendlystaffthat worked there. extremely personable and genuine people that truly cared for their guests. i got a burger with bacon, cheese, mayo and jalapeños. i upgraded for the pulled pork poutine which has got to be the best poutine i've ever had. the poutine got topped with a side rib which fell right off the bone and their world class pulled pork. my girlfriend got the teriyaki chicken pizza which was also really good. i was extremely satisfied with everything. thestaffthere made us feel at home and the price was very good, costed me under 25$ for the two of us. we also spent some time after in the neat little antique shop. i would definitely say it was worth getting lost for. i recommend crazy canuck to everyone 100%.

best. poutine. ever.. got a tip from a friend to check this place and am i ever glad that i did. my girlfriend and i went for a quick dinner and were extremely satisfied. i had the burger with a side of the smoked meat poutine. the burger was very basic, but very delicious - there's something to be said about a simple burger done right. and the poutine - i am a poutine fanatic, and this was probably the best poutine i ever had!! smoked meat, pulled pork, apple gravy, cheese curds, and 2 side ribs to top it off. i was full about 3/4 the way in but i had to finish every last bite since it was so good. my girlfriend had the chicken club - again, a simple menu item done right. she opted for the regular poutine, which was delicious, but the smoked meat poutine was out of this world.

i would really recommend this place to anybody. inexpensive, delicious, and extremely friendlystaffas well. i will definitely be going back.

when you own a small establishment in a city thats flouded with big name franchises you have to do something special to standout. the crazy canuck does this in spades excellent food, friendlystaffthat care about your dining experience.my girlfriend and i will definitely be returning.
