off the beaten path and worth the effort
The wait time for food that was easy and fast to prepare was outrageously long in this not even half full bistro. Then the chicken burger chicken was cooked to overcooked crisp. When complaining the server had invalid excuses she used on these senior citizens sitting there. None of us will return to this Heron Rock Bistro after this first visit.
The most consistently excellent restaurant in James Bay and area. Point randomly at anything on the menu, and it will invariably be great. This place is my go-to anytime I want to go out to eat.
Ainsley was a great server. I come from years in hospitality and if I ever have standout service, I leave a review. Food was great, everyone in my group enjoyed it. The beef burger was so good (delicious house made bun!) but our service is was stood out to all of us. Thanks for the great experience Ainsley, we will back eventually and asking for you!
We sat on the sundeck with the dog. The view of the trail helped make it nice. It's almost springtime. And it was such a nice atmosphere.
UPDATE: I gave them another try with the eggs Benny and it was very good. I am still upset about the terrible fries that were sent to me last time so my rating stays at 3 Was very disappointed to received fries cooked in old, brown fryer oil. Very unprofessional and tasted awful. I hate throwing away food but these were inedible.
Amazing food at a great price-point! We fell in love with the Duck Wings, but after coming here 5 times we still haven’t found anything on the menu we haven’t thoroughly enjoyed.
Chicken and Waffles Benedict! Need I say more? Great service. Highly recommended.
We received our meals and didn't see a waiter/waitress until we were ready to leave. I ordered the chicken burger which was drier than an dessert and will not be returning to this restaurant anytime soon
