Milestones Restaurant

Awesome service! Loved the waiter, very friendly, knowledgeable, overall he made the experience great. They recently changed the menu and personally I didn’t love the selection but the food I did receive was really good.

Fantastic food and atmosphere. I had the prime rib which was the best I’ve had in a very long time. Michelle my server was very attentive and added a wonderful touch to the dining experience.
I will definitely return and would recommend Milestones as a must stop.

My parents had just picked me up from the airport after being away for a week and I asked them to bring me somewhere comfortable and familiar. This is where we ended up.
Usually I would say that attempting this kind of restaurant on a Friday is just nuts, and I was proven right that night. The place was entirely packed. Which is great considering the old neighbouring movie theatre is gone.
We were seated quickly enough but were not approached by a server for at least 15 minutes. Growing slightly frustrated we flagged down the nearest person who glanced our direction and got Jennifer. She quickly took our order and promised to find out who our server was supposed to be. Jennifer returned with our drinks, stated she would cover for our server and continued to serve us the remainder of the night. Later we found out that she ended up staying later than she was supposed to in order to help out the team. As someone who used to work in a service industry job, I really appreciated her commitment to serving the customers when needed. Most others would have punched out and left when their shift was done. Bravo to Jennifer!
Food wise, I had the seafood pasta. It was decent, a little on the oily side but flavourful enough. My dad had the prime rib which he seemed to really like. I would return to Milestones in the future. Though likely not on a Friday night.

Ordered the seafood fettuccine but was quite disappointed actually. They were out of mussels (dish comes with combination of seafood) so the lady told me they’ll throw in extra shrimps. There was no taste to the sauce. I couldn’t even tell it had Cajun spice. The amount of seafood was not enough. I wonder how their rest of the entrees are. I wasn’t impressed

I really enjoyed this place, despite my children not giving me a chance to sit down long! The service was excellent, really accommodating the kids’ needs without compromising the rest of the meal. I had the cod and chips and it was okay but a fairly small portion and the fish wasn’t as fresh as it could have been. The crumb was also not great, beer batter is the way forward! Slaw was nice but again, I wanted more. I think the dessert was the highlight, this really full on chocolate cake, so great. My husband had an interesting take on a red curry, quite dry but still nice. Overall the standouts were the friendly, professional service and the dessert.

Ordered the mushroom soup and the Cajun seafood fettuccine and Asian steak salad for mains. Soup was good, not cream based but would have been better if it was hot instead of a warm soup.
Asian steak salad was tasty and steak was cooked exactly as requested. Cajun fettuccine was good in concept but was far too oily and while the salmon and shrimp was cooked perfectly the calamari rings were little nubs of elastic that had the living daylight cooked out of them. It’s been awhile since I had calamari so badly overcooked.
Service was friendly and attentive. For the prices I expect consistent food quality.
Would come again but try something else…

Not the Nicest Milestone I’ve been to, I find it too Dark and s bit dated, they need to do some Renovations to create a better ambience.

My coworkers had organized a going away lunch here. I didn’t think I would enjoy my meal or my time here but I was pleasantly surprised.
We were part of a large group so they had seated us in a nice, secluded section from the rest of the restaurant. The waitress we had was quick, really attentive with our orders and was prompt. Usually, with a large group they are quite slow, but surprisingly they were on top of things.
I had ordered the southern fried chicken sandwich. Although my meal was dry and plain, I know others who had thoroughly enjoyed their meal and for that reason I am giving them a 4 out of 5. Do order the sweet potato fries if you can because they were crisp, and not drenched in oil.
There food is a little pricy for lunch, but for the service you get, I can say it’s worth it. I would definitely recommend this place again for a large group setting.

If every major restaurant chain could execute a dining experience the way that Milestone’s does, the world would bed a better place! Even though I tend to lean towards the «mom and pop» kind of establishments, this has become my favourite «go to» place in my area. The staff is courteous, knowledgable and attentive. Although there are about a dozen dishes on the menu that I’d like to try, my meal of choice is the Cajun Shrimp Diane.
The atmosphere is elegant and the price points are reasonable. For my money, you can’t go wrong.

I came here with the group to celebrate a birthday. The Winterberry drink was fabulous. I ordered a stacked burger and fries. Fries came out hot, crispy and salty which was perfect. The burger was actually quite dry and lacked flavor. We haven’t come here in a while, noticed up price increase in a lot of the dishes we used to love. It was good for what it was, but I’d rather take the $ 30 we spent on two burgers and have something a little better.

Comparing to other chain restaurants and other Milestones, this ones scores really low for the food and service. Painfully arrogant service coupled with almost inedible food, this place made me want to leave part way through dinner.
Our waitress took nearly 25 minutes to bring the menu before disappearing again for another 20 minutes. We even asked another waiter to place the order but he said he’d try to find the original waitress. When she resurfaced, we were able to tell her what we want but it was clear that she had a very hard time capturing the mains with our preferred sides or appetizer. She couldn’t repeat back the order. This should have been the point where we just walked out.
When the food was served, some of us were given with the wrong sides. We flagged down the waitress and told her what was wrong. Instead of apologizing, she told us that we were wrong! Then she told us to just switch the mains on the plates to different sides even though no one wanted the rice. Finally she said she’d get them correct but not before rolling her eyes at us.
Another 20 minutes go by and when the food arrives, they’re with the correct sides but the mains are cold. The burger bun is damp and soggy from the vegetables and the salad had a ridiculous amount of dressing on it. The fish is over salted and the fries are so limp.
Just save yourself the headache and go anywhere but here.

Friendly but slow service. Rubbish food. The best thing to say about this place is they were very very accommodating since we had a service dog with us and sometimes places are weird about that even though they shouldn’t be. I had the Southern fried chicken sandwich and it was beyond bland. The fries were also lackluster. I don’t understand the appeal of this place.

Love this place!!! Beyond excellent customer service and awesome Sunday brunch (egg Benedict are fantastic!)

Came here on a busy saturday night with our party of 8 and had to wait 20 mins by the bar.
The very attentive staff kept us updated all the time as to when our table would be ready.
The food when it arrived pretty quickly was excellent for our group except for me.
I had the mushroom soup and New York Striplion peppercorn steak.(see pic!)
Unfortunately the steak which was supposed to be medium rare came well done.
I sent it back and the replcement came barely five mins later done more medium than medium rare. I didn’t want to make an issue and accepted it as is.
It was totally fine and very tasty though.
We finished with the apple crumble which was again excellent.
The wait staff was very attentive, friendly and caring though out our dinner.
For my slight inconvenience, at the time to pay for the dinner, I was told that my steak was comped.
Kudos to the staff for that!
I’ll be back.
4.5 stars for the food.
5 stars for the ambiance and staff. (which are great looking BTW!)

Good food, nice atmosphere. Don’t know why this has such a low rating. Its far better than others with higher ratings. Been here many times always been consistent and good.

I had a lunch there with a client and three coworkers.
It was busy and apparently are meals were taking longer than usual. The manager came over to apologize. We were talking so hadn’t even noticed. Good customer service.
It’s been a while since I’ve been at a Milestone’s and I remembered that the Red Curry Chicken Bowl is delicious and that’s what I ordered … and it was delicious. It would be nice if they replaced the crunchy side crackers (or whatever they are) with naan.

Why is this place rated lower than Jack Astor’s which is across the parking lot from here? Jack Astor’s sucks (see my review). This place was awesome. Great food and the service was very attentive. She even gave me a free slice of cake when she heard that I was visiting from the States!

Milestones is rapidly becoming one of my least favorite restaurants and this one seems particularly bad. There were 3 of us at the table. One meal was perfect. The other two (steaks) were not. They were under cooked (I asked for med rare and it came rare, the other one was ordered medium and it came medium rare) the vegetables were very unappealing, the garlic mashed potatoes looked awful, service was average. We sent one of the meals back only to have it come back with the wrong side dish. We asked for water no ice … of course lots of ice. The meal was a mess. The manager came by three times and for our woes she gave us a free appetizer for next time? Yes I’ll be back to use the free appetizer card and spend more money … As if. If your looking for somewhere to go before a movie … Go ANYWHERE else :)

***1.5 Star***
I visit here every once in a while for the Eggs Milestone. Tasty goodness. That is now the only reason — this is my first sub-​2 star review.
I haven’t eaten supper here in yonks, so when I was given a $ 25 gift card for something I can’t recall, I went for dinner just to see what I was missing. The bar area was seething with Internet daters. It was surreal. I forced my wife to have a drink at the bar first so I could stare.
Sorry, back to it: I settled on the Kobe meatloaf b/​c I luvs mah red meat. It was a tasteless, uninspired brick of meat. Nothing could save it.
Wife had the butternut squash ravioli which was also below par. It wasn’t seasoned very well and the ravioli underdone. Server seemed a little lost (she looked new).
Going back a few weeks prior to this night, I met up with a buddy for drinks before Christmas as this place was roughly midpoint between our homes. I got there early and the Internet daters were in full-​effect! I wonder if there’s a free appetizer in it for them.
Any way, my buddy was running late and so I sat at the bar for 10 mins before I got an acknowledgement and 20 mins before I was asked if I wanted something to drink. Normally, I wouldn’t care too much as I wasn’t in a rush but there were between 3 – 4 staff behind that 15 foot bar during this time.
Good selection of beers/​wines. Too bad service sucked. Will return for the eggs, but for nothing else.

I have no complaints about this place, really. The food was pretty good, not great. the waitress was definitely helpful, but maybe a bit too «in your face» for my liking. Not quite as genuine as I like my servers.
However, the two things we wanted to order, a) the prime rib for the meat eater, and b) the squash ravioli for the veggie — were both no dice as they were out. So that was kind of smelly.
I do appreciate the way the restaurant is laid out though. the booths are rather private, which is solid, especially when your conversation drifts to rather unpleasant topics that are usually left for after dinner parties, and even then, the more crude of stand up routines.
