    Meatloaf and Steak Tips excellent. Portion quite generous. I took home leftovers and had no room for desert. My table mate stopped eating to save room for the molten lava cake with ice cream and whipped cream I will come back some afternoon to just order the molten lava cake.

    The staff were all very gracious, Attentive but not hovering. They accomodated an extra seat for an additional guest with no hassle and the food was very good.

    Everything was great. Started with the potato soup and steak and cheese egg rolls. We had the haddock, steal tips, Caesar salad and 1/2 chicken. Finished with key lime pie and brownie sundae

    We have been coming to West on Centre for many years. The food is consistently good and there are always many specials. Not quite sure how they do it but we're glad they do!

    Usually a delightful meal but this time it was really off. Maybe it’s because it’s the holidays, but it felt like a lot of the food was reheated in the microwave. The sauces were heavy and really had limited range of flavor. Sauce for the duck was too heavy in every way. Same can be said of the concentrated apple syrup in the apple crisp. Almost fresh out of a MacDonalds apple pie. I’ll still go back and I hope that this was just a fluke.

    Service was terrific. Food was ok. I’ve eaten here many times. May have been what we ordered. Very noisy. May have been because it’s like an echo chamber. Nice ambience, other than noise issues.
