If you’re looking for Teppanyaki cooking then the Villa Restaurant in Whitby is for you!  We have visited this restaurant several times and find it is a really nice way to enjoy a dinner out.  The menu features lots of different Sushi and Sashimi but the Teppanyaki dinner choices provide you with a dinner and a show!

Teppanyaki involves the chef cooking right in front of you on a red hot, gas fired stainless steel grill. During the cooking process the chef will do tricks with the salt and pepper shakers and sometimes even chop an onion, stack it in a pyramid shape, pour in oil and light it on fire for a spectacular onion volcano!

There are a variety of Teppanyaki dinner choices, but we found the dinner for two selections to be a great way to go.  The amount of food you get for two people could feed 3 people!  Very good value for the money.  Our dinner featured Miso Soup, Salad, Lobster tail, Steak and Chicken (yes all three!) along with cooked vegetables and rice all for about $58.00.   We found by the time you add a couple drinks into the mix and a tip the bill for two was about $100.00  but worth it.

So if you feel like doing something different and you want a fun dining experience, check out the Villa in Whitby.  (check back for photos soon!)

The Bâton Rouge concept is a true success story based on winning factors: first-rate quality and an overall experience that is consistently good from one restaurant to the next. We believe in this philosophy and know that it is the reason for our customers’ high level of satisfaction. That’s why we could never compromise the quality of our food, the service in our dining rooms, or the ambience that graces each of our many restaurants.

The story begins with the opening of our first restaurant, in Laval. Right away, our concept set itself apart from the competition. Our founders attended to every detail: colours, textures, lighting, food quality, precision of recipes, presentation of dishes, service. They designed a menu rich in variety to meet the needs of a diverse clientele. To ensure a high standard of quality and freshness, they unanimously agreed to prepare all the food on site.

The popularity of Bâton Rouge restaurants quickly took off. Today our 21 franchises located throughout the provinces of Québec and Ontario can accommodate on average 230 diners each (7,000 to 9,000 square feet). Each new location is carefully selected in order to draw in a diverse clientele. The company seeks strategic growth rather than aggressive expansion in order to maintain the very essence of its concept. Bâton Rouge is a division of Imvescor Restaurants Inc.

Riley’s Pub is located on King St. in downtown Oshawa.  The pub is located right next to a multi-storey parking garage making finding a parking spot a breeze.  The pub has lots of seating (don’t get the booth right in front of the entrance on a cold night…you’ll freeze!), lots of tv screens and features a variety of traditional pub fare, on our last visit we sampled the roast beef dinner which was quite nice (although is seems impossible for Canadian establishments to get Yorkshire Puddings right).

Our most recent visit to Riley’s was on Jan 24th, a Saturday night.  We made a reservation (recommended) and arrived at 7pm.  The restaurant was busy and the billiards room and lounge were fairly quiet.

I ordered the Steak and Ribs ($31.99). The Angus Striploin was very nice, but I found the ribs a bit bland.  It seemed like they applied the sauce right before they were served and therefore the saunce didn’t get a chance to penetrate the ribs themselves. The mashed potatoes were really nice and the garlic veggies got my taste approval too.  Our service in the Restaurant was also very good.

With it being a Saturday night during our visit, Riley’s had live entertainment upstairs and down.  The gentleman who was performing in the upstairs lounge (see video)  was excellent at performing Elton John’s Hits and his piano playing was amazing.  Very entertaining.   Our upstairs server was attentive and even let us know when a pool table became available so we could play pool for an hour ($12.00 per hour).  Pool tables are available on a first come first served basis, so it was really nice of her to do that without us having to stand at the entrance to the billiard room hoping a table would come free.

All in all, our visit to Riley’s was a nice experience. It was great to have dinner and then be entertained afterwards without having to go to another location.
