We wanted somewhere special for our anniversary so we, chose Fosters. After bringing us a drink the waitress ignored us for 50 minutes until we called her over. Our baked potato was under microwaved. When I complained my steak was full of gristle she said - yeah its charred on the outside but how is it inside. We won't be back and thats too bad because we have had good meals there before.
Good place! We were staying at the Fosters Inn for the Stratford Festival and decided to have our first dinner right here. Steaks were good - I wouldnt say excellent but good. The lamb carpaccio was good when i got to it (it was covered in about 4 inches of shaved cucmber slices) My wife ordered the shrimp appetizer which was very good. We went just after the evening show had started so the place was nearly empty snd the service was excellent. It was a nice warm night so we took our after dinner liquers and espresso's out to the patio where the waitress treated us like we owned the place. Pre-dinner drinks, appetizers, main course, bottle of wine, dessert, liquers and espresso was $220
The food is far over priced and the amount of food is not adequate. Nice atmosphere and would reccomend for drinks.
It has turned out to be one of my favourites in town for a couple of drinks and chat with friends. The restaurant has also become a favourite. The decor is casual elegant. Lots of use of wood and soft paint colours. The bar is small and along part of the one wall of the bar area. The door to the street is the main entrance for the establishment. Several tables with stools are at the rear and a couple of low tables as well. Drinks and service are very good. The bar menu is well done and reasonable. The Gorgenzola (sp) Fries are a great as is the burger. The decor of the restaurant is much the same with an open kitchen on one wall. Lighting is low and comfortable. That something that can kill a place. If the lighting is poor..too bright..too dim...it can ruin the atmosphere before the food even arrives. Fosters got it right on the money. This is one of the only places you can actually order a steak in town and get a reliable cut of meat properly cooked. But don't misunderstand, this is not a steak house. The menu dosn't reach beyond the kitchens ability so the food across the menu is realiably good and very well presented. The best item on the menu in our opinion and what we usually order is the daliy pasta special. Chef creates something new each day and the portion is ample and excellently prepared. In the dozen or more trips there we have yet to be disappointed. Service is top notch. No issues of any kind.
4 out of 5 in our group ordered the Squash soup, one bowl you could split apart in the middle it was so thick, the other 3 bowls were watery, so stir the pot before you serve the soup, how trained are these Chefs. The duck I ordered was awful, 5 slices of duck which was mostly skin and fat, with 3 slices of potato on the side, it was a real disappointment at $23.95. Would not go back.
