Casey's Bar & Grill
I found out recently that other than at the airport, there was a Casey's to be found in Mtl. However, it's not exactly close to downtown. I'd estimate it to be a 15 minute drive & i recommend having a navigator (GPS) in your vehicle in order to make it easier to locate.
It's located next to a mall & also has an outside 'terrasse'. The restaurant is fairly nice, but similar to most of the other Casey's Restaurants located throughout Canada. The waitress was very friendly & cute, and told one of my buddies to go for the burger instead of the fajitas when he asked her for advice. I wasn't that hungry since i had already had lunch at my favorite restaurant (Reuben's), so i just ordered chicken wings & chicken noodles soup. It took a while for their food to arrive. The restaurant was somewhat empty & we couldn' figure out why it would take over a half hour at least to get our food. The wings were good, but nothing to write home about. The burgers my buddies ordered were very good, but one of them had trouble concentrating on the food since he probably would be running late for an appointment with an sp scheduled for late afternoon. I joked to him when he'd speak to the agency owner to advise of a slight delay that he should tell him "now you know how the client feels when he has to wait for the girl."
We finally were able to leave the restaurant about 5 minutes prior to my buddy's scheduled appointment & he did advise the booker once again that he'd be about 10 minutes late. That's what happens when you go too far to have lunch prior to an appointment!
All in all, nice restaurant, but too much traffic going by the 'terrasse'. Cute waitresses, but it took longer than usual for our food to arrive. Oh yes, before i forget. The waitress told me that my wings could have been ready sooner, but one of the waiters had mistakenly grabbed the order and gave it to his table. So i had to wait for his original order to be ready & she brought it to me soon after she brought my buddies' burgers. No big deal & i suppose i'm not gonna make a big fuss (unlike other people) for her honesty.
Do i recommend this restaurant? No.
Reason for not recommending it: Too far from downtown. Not worth the 15 minute drive.
Note: I would have recommended it if it was located downtown. But there's not that difference between what's on its menu & what's on the menu at the Hard Rock Cafe. An hour later, i went to the Hard Rock Cafe (my 2nd most popular place to eat) with another buddy & had my usual, which are the classic chicken wings. It is my opinion that the Hard Rock Cafe has the best chicken wings i've ever eaten anywhere!
