Lunch special $11, 2-piece fish and chips with refillable fountain drink. My pet peeve is overcooked fried fish... something this was NOT. Truly perfect fillets of succulent pollock, incredibly crispy (if slightly overseasoned) batter contrasting with the delicate juicy flakes of fish within. Nice one!
The tartar sauce, ketchup, vinegars, hot sauces, and salt are all self-serve. Thumbs up!

They have a few lunch specials for $11, one of which is any two tacos with fries and a refillable fountain drink. I opted for the Joey's Fish Taco and the Vietnamese Taco.
Both were overwhelmed by cabbage, but other than that they were pretty good. The fries were plentiful and tasty. Not a bad choice if you want a quick lunch.
The staff here are friendly in that "I'm cheerful because I like my job" way. Kind of like at Starbucks.
Thursday is AYCE tacos day.

They have eliminated their Tuesday AYCE fish and chips deal, replacing it with a superior option!
"$2 Tuesdays" offers the three staple components of a fish and chip meal for $2 each: fish, chips, bottomless soft drink. This offer is available all day on Tuesdays.
I think the AYCE option was $14. With the new approach, you could get 6 pieces of fish and an order of chips for that price -- much more than most people are able to eat.
This lunch plate of 3 fish and 1 chip was $8 + tax. Superb! Nothing makes me happier than when the price is almost as wonderful to swallow as the food. :-)

They have a number of specialty poutines on the regular menu, as well as a special limited time option. The special (until the end of February I was told) is the Stroganoff Poutine. A base of regular poutine is topped with tender strands of slow cooked beef, a rich dark gravy, and sour cream. Yum!
The Large (around $11) was most satisfying as a meal. Monkey not included.
