tomahawk restaurant

pathetic place. my father was kicked out of the establishment for not orderingfoodas he had already eaten. they wanted to charge a $5 seating fee when he already ordered $7 worth in drinks. they did not need the seat and there was no other reason for this seating fee, other than a cash grab. overall this place has goodfood(great bacon) but the service is terrible and the owner is greedy pig. don't go here, just avoid this awful place.

overcooked. saturday night for 2. mixed grill and turkey roast plate.

difficult to find this place if you are not a local, as there is absolutely no signage in front of the restaurant. however once inside you could get the sense of the history in the building. service was fine, but thefoodtook a long time to come out which was a surprise, as the restaurant did not look completely full.

food: one word describes the experience: overcooked. and to be honest that is indicative of a poorly managed kitchen i feel. i'm no michellin chef but even i know not to overcook bacon to the extent it turns super hard (or is that what yukon bacon is suppose to be? hard and unpalatable?). the 100% beef pattie was dry and overcooked. the turkey was dry and overcooked. the reason this grates on me so is they are all cuts of meat that are not hard to cook well. it's not like trying to cook tender chicken breast, or fish that is just right. the portions were huge, but having huge portions of poorly cookedfooddoesn't make thefoodany less poor.

tip: if you do go - get something stewed. at least then there's no way it'll be overcooked.

so looking forward to this "breakfast experience" but let down!!!. since bothfoodnetwork shows "diners, drive in's and dive's" and "you gotta eat here" was filmed here and recommended, my boyfriend and i were stoked to try it out.

we both had egg's benedict. very overpriced for what you get! sadly came with frozen hashbrowns!!! like c'mon!!!!!

owner was very rude as he stood taking the payment from the customers, couldn't help at all with taking our names to sit down though!!!

overall terrible experience!! go to moodyville's on lonsdale!!! superb breakfast!!!!!

came here after leaving vancouver island. looked up good places to eat and saw this was on ‘you gotta eat here’ so figured we’d stop. we were the only ones when we first arrived but a few more people trickled in later. we did show up 45 minutes before close. the waitress was friendly and attentive and we asked for her opinion on a few different items and she was helpful.foodcame out quickly. the eggs benedict was good. hash browns were in the very small cubes which i really like. eggs were cooked nicely - not too runny and deep orange yolk. ham was vinegary and had a good texture. husband ordered the cheesesteak and the beef was tender and cheese sauce very traditional. decor is quirky and adds to the feeling of the place. would definitely recommend!

fantastic. the tomahawk restaurant is a hot spot restaurant that is a must visit! thefoodis homemade, with freshly squeezed orange juice at breakfast. the mushroom,cheddar, and bacon omelet is sooo delicious. the portion size is great for the price, and it comes with yummy hash browns and toast! it's a popular place so you might have to wait, but trust me, it is worth every minute of waiting!

the 3.3 average rating doesn't show what a fabulous restaurant this is, their breakfast is to die for! my husband and i have gone here twice now, the breakfast is amazing, the yukon sausages, yukon bacon and how they make the hash browns are to die for! they staff is also amazing, very pleasant always returning to see if you want any thing else or  just to ask how everything is. for the price the amount you get and the taste, "wow" its great!  i have told several people about this place, i have gone back twice now and i don't live in the area, but love thefoodand the service and will bring me for years....

thanks tomahawk restaurant for a great meal and great service....

expensive. normalfoodfor diner style.

sadly this icon of the northshore has fallen to the state it is now. once upon a time, when the father ran this fine restaurant the level offoodquality was much higher. that and the service was second to none. that being said you won't find that now. these days you find high prices and reduced meals.  many years ago, the yukon breakfast was known for taking on the challenge of trying to finish the meal. now it is a just  average over priced meal.  seems the son, and his children don't have the passion for the business. might be time for them to close the doors, and return those fine artifacts to the natives who are the rightful owners.  so don't waste your time, or money eating here. there is many finer places to spend your hard earned dollars.

solid comfort food, nothing super fancy but they do simple well. decor was interesting and every little bit offered some part of history. service was direct, fast and attentive! didn't have to wait long for food, drinks, desserts or refills! will revisit when comfortfoodis needed.

great place with great designs, yet great service!
the foods taste incredibly amazing, they amazingly keep thefoodquality throughout years, highly recommended!

disappointing. where to begin? all four over easy eggs at our table arrived completely cooked solid. the hashbrowns were from a bag in the freezer. stingy on the jam. kids meals were really pricey. fish and chips were from the freezer and the fish was still cold. i'd rather pay for goodfoodthan quirkiness.

diners, drive ins and duds!!!. i had the new york steak special, came out looking like it was microwaved. it ended up being the worst steak i've ever had at a restaurant. i think the cook forgot to add spice. i wish i'd read reviews prior as i wouldn't had come based on theirfoodsharing charge. who in their right mind would've recommended this place to guy fieri? how embarrassing to have him come here. i will give props to the service as our waitress was kind and attentive.

disappointed. we drove 40mins to check out this place, we've heard rave reviews about the food, which looked delicious. unfortunately the experience was disappointing in that i didn't want to eat a lot and it was not an option to have an extra plate to eat off of unless i wanted to pay $5.50 for it. they have a no sharing policy they strictly enforce. so if you order a large portion and can't finish it - don't allow your pals to share it with you, you'll get charged. i can understand there is a sharing charge if i wanted to split a dish and have equal portions hashbrowns etc and the kitchen has to put the time and energy into splitting the dish- no problem i'll pay. but 'you're not allowed to share and divy up thefoodyourself' policy. i guess the establishment doesn't make enough money to spend the extra 25cents in the broader picture- to have the dishwasher clean the extra plate and set up cutlery, so that the customers dining experience is a pleasant one.

food for thought!

listen to this. thefoodhere is bad when is busy since the kitchen is very bad design only 3 people can cook in the line because there is not space to fit more people and the problem is that the owner doesn't wan't to fix that situation because he doesn't wan't to spend any money at all...(greedy). the restaurant fits 80 to 90 people sometimes up to 3 sittings so 3 cooks makes 1and half plates a every minute....so they don't care much about quality or flavour but speed all they want to do is sending orders out even the products are good quality like organic eggs, organic meat, etc the final product is bad 'cause the owner doesn't want to pay more cooks and in the other hand the unprofessional teenager (good looking) servers gets tons of money in tips from 100 up to 300 hundred (im not kidding) per shift tipping nothing to the kitchen ...my friend used to work there and she told me whats going on...

“tomahawk” has been recommended to me on several occasions. known more for their breakfast, i still decided to come in for dinner. located farther for me in north vancouver, i found it worth the introductory trip down. if not for the comfort food, for a decor like no other. if you miss it, the restaurant’s entrance is flanked by a pair of matching totem poles, the only place like it. with a spacious parking lot to the side it is fairly easy to get to and convenient to stop at.   at the lobby you are greeted with a scaled down gift shop. a corner store of candy, souvenirs, and native memorabilia for purchasing. i suspect this does fairly well as tourists often visit, and have been doing so since 1926. proof is in their framed awards. rows and rows, and years and years of accolades lined the foyer. decades of achievements throughout time, and a testament to their longevity.   past thefoodand collectables is a running water feature. a pond sized pool surrounded by brick, settled in by y
