    Food was very good. If I had any thing to complain about it would be the inconsistent amount of meat served on your carvery. One guest dinning with us received a small amount of meat for a medium serving. I have noticed your prices have increased and your servings are smaller. Everyone at our table enjoyed their meal. Thankyou

    Our group patronises this place regularly. This time the ordering procedure took forever. At 12:45 pm I was about 15th in line and it took about 15-20 minutes to be able to order. Too long. Not enough staffed ordering stations this time. Now wondering whether we should favour another restaurant.
    Boardwalk Bistro - Wrest PointResponded on 17 March 2025
    Dear Bernie, Thank you for your feedback and for being a regular patron. We're sorry to hear about the long wait time and the lack of staffed ordering stations during your visit. We'll address this issue to improve our service, and we hope you'll give us another chance to provide a better experience. Many thanks, The Boardwalk Team
