Symposium Cafe Restaurant & Lounge

We love breakfast here! Great selections, healthy portions and delicious. Finally made it for a dinner and were not disappointed. Excellent service from Harman! Must try the vegetable flatbread ...so good!

A go to breakfast location for an impressive breakfast menu. A wide variety of Eggs Benedict to choose from. Every day has a menu special. Dinners are wonderful! Great food, consistently excellent quality. Friendly and helpful staff. New owners to this location. Very friendly people. Good to support them.

Beer lines were dirty offered second glass still nasty floatys. Finally offered a can. Didn't offer to take money off the bil in any way. Had to ask for the bill 3 times Just skip this not worth you time or money!

Second trip to Symposium in the past 1.5 weeks. Tonight three of us ordered the Chicken Souvlaki Dinner. The joint consensus on this dish was it was not good value at all for our money $23.95 plus tax/tip). The three chicken skewers were very tasty and delicious however the chicken was accompanied by a small portion of plain white Jasmine type rice and a small greek salad that had little taste/flavour of dressing. Fourth guest enjoyed his burger; fries were stone cold and had to be exchanged. The restaurant would benefit but changing up this dish add some lemon greek potatoes or increase the rice portion substantially and dress up the rice with flavour etc.

A friend and I went to have a couple drinks around 8:30, we were very excited as things have been closed around us for quite some time. This being said, we were rudely awoken almost the second we walked in. My friend is training a service animal and was questioned about it as soon as we walked in (not a huge problem, of course! and from there after the greeter/waitress was not warm or welcoming. We sat down to order drinks and the waitress made ZERO conversation and simply took our order, which would be totally fine and understandable had they been busy. After finishing our drinks, no one came to offer another nor came to see how they were/if we were doing okay. My friend went to the bar to let her know she wanted another and the waitress took her time to bring that over. After finishing my own drink, we AGAIN walked to the bar to ask for another and we were told that last call was at 9pm ... which was not told to us at any point in the night. Last call is understandable and not arguable, however, the waitress did not let us know about it nor did she come to offer a last drink as last call was soon approaching. Horrible service... but of course when the time to pay came around she was so quick to ask about the dog and make conversation... I used to love this place, but after this experience I will not be back!!
