Pasto's Grill - London Canada

Stopped in after checking into our hotel which is next door, and so glad we did. One of the best meals we have had in years! The baguette with garlic butter was unbelievable, I could live on it! We also loved the Caesar Salad and the Gnocchi with chicken, peas, bacon and a garlic cream sauce was the best we have ever had! Do not miss this place!

Really lovely place... large area but still feels very personal and intimate Was truly deserving of a 5 Star rating but the Wonton Shrimp hit a flat note and was so out of sync with everything else we ordered. Almost tasted like pre flavoured frozen shrimp that was microwaved and 5 of them placed in a plate with a ton of salad Now that I 've got that out of the at let 's move onto everything else that was outstanding Chicken Penne Garden Penne Seafood Linguine Steak Sandwich All of these were authentically flavoured and tasted fresh and light Maybe the seafood linguine could be the same portion size as the pennes ... would be my only suggestion here And then we topped these off with a two bite brownie ... which was delectable and way more than 2 bites When we are in London next, we will make a stop here PS: Also had a wonderful experience while we were waiting for our starters There was a young couple scoping the place and engaged in discussions with the staff about seating arrangements, dates, times, menu options .... When they crossed our table, they apologized for 'invading our privacy '... which they clearly did not we are not Canadian if we don 't create an opportunity to apologize! . When I told them that they had nothing to be sorry about, I couldn 't resist complimenting them about how thorough they seem to be in planning an upcoming dinner... And their response blew me away.... they were in process of booking a table for 8 and selecting the menu because that was going to be their wedding dinner Wow... just wow In a world in which I 've seen and experienced more than my fair share of ostentatious weddings with hordes of people... this couple were just such a refreshing breath of fresh air... we wish them very happiness And thank you Emily for taking such good care of us

We were staying at the hotel for a hockey tournament and the restaurant was able to accommodate us for an early dinner on the Friday night. The wait staff was great and managed to keep up with the growing number of tables and keep track of who was with who. The food had mixed reviews but mostly positive. We had one player not like their meal as she felt it tasted and smelt off. The chef came out to question her and made her feel intimidated. She did not want a replacement and chose to finish her appetizer as she had a game to play. She was surprised to find the meal charged to her. I stepped in to help as her mother was not present at the dinner but asked the server not to bring the chef out as she was intimidated by him. He came out anyway and told me there was nothing wrong with the meal and he had tasted it himself. (Who says that? He said he offered her something else, but she didn't want anything. Please note that we had over 30 people in the restaurant and yet he refused to comp one $22 meal. My husband stepped in to try to reason with him but it was clear his gigantic ego could not accept someone thinking there was something wrong with her meal. He even gave it back to my husband since it was paid for (which we left because he had tasted it, which is gross and everyone else thought there was something wrong with it . I have never had such an experience in a restaurant hence the one-star rating. Please note that we did return for the free breakfast on Sunday and it was very good. The chef who was there on that morning was wonderful and pleasant so the rating is not for him.

Always get a good meal here. Friendly service and overall pleasant atmosphere although can get a bit load when full. Highly recommended.

Ive been coming to Pato's grill for lunch for the past few weeks and I've yet to have a bad experience. The wait staff is all extremely friendly, service is fast and the food is great!!
