I had Smokey BBQ wings and my husband had Thai chilli chicken as our mains.We could tell the cook loved their job. Will definitely be coming back! Read more

Food is great, but the service, is incomparable. Heather, the head bartender, is absolutely amazing. She\'s personable, kind,... friendly and on top of her game. She\'s truly one of a kind, and Monster Pub is EXTREMELY lucky to have a staff member likeHeather, to be apart of their establishment. The renovations have made it a more comfortable environment, and much morewelcoming. ?? 4/5 for the food\n100/5 for the service. You\'re amazing Heather! You rock! Read more

I had followed a friend out to Bowmanville on an errand and stopped in at KSJ Monster Pub & Restaurant for a bite to eat. First... impressions? Weird name. Clean interior with intimate lighting, attractive seating, and a nicely stocked long bar. Lots of TVs.Very nice.\n\nWe were greeted by the lone server/bartender who brought us menus and told us all the specials of the day. Idecided on the burger special - 8oz prime rib burger with cheese, bacon, and fries for only $10.00!\n\nThe burger arrivedopen-faced, dressed with lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickle. It looked good. It tasted really good! The burger patty was big andjuicy, topped with two strips of bacon. It tasted pretty good! The fries were really good, with every one being nice and crispy.Great fries!\n\nFor a completely random, unplanned visit, this was a very pleasant experience. The food was delicious, theambiance was very nice, and the service was outstanding! Kudos to our server, Shirly(?).\n\n4.5/5.0 Read more

We went for lunch it was so good and our server Shirley was super! So we decided to go back for supper and it was awesome with... our server Heather going out of her way to make it even better and then we had a visit from the very friendly owner - great finishing of our evening.\nThe following morning we just had to return to try out their breakfast. Once again....great service,nice presentation, very reasonable prices, acceptional food quality and a friendly chat with the owners.\nSo sorry we didn\'ttake any pictures to post. :(\nWe will definitely be back whenever we are in the area!!\nJust Awesome! They deserve 5-Star Plusrating!!\nKUDOS to the entire team!! Read more

We had the best time in this restaurant. The atmosphere and the seatings were more welcoming which also has the outdoor patio... style seating. They have a big menu for lunch and dinner. Would definitely recommend trying the restaurant if you are around Bowmanville Read more

Ordered deep fried cheese curds, calamari, deluxe burger, pad Thai and a house made alcohol beverage monster melon. Enjoyed the... food taste wise and portions were fair. We did not finish our meals. Had to box it and go. The service was quite exceptional andFern was our server. Not sure if it was the owner or the cook, but they came out to ask how the food was. Will definitely comeback. Enjoyed the atmosphere. Read more

We decided to try this restaurant for lunch on their outdoor patio as it was a nice sunny Saturday afternoon.\n\nThis restaurant... has quite a large menu and I\'m sure there is something for everyone. The waitress was friendly and helpful and we were seatedand order taken shortly after arriving.\n\nOne order was Chipotle Chicken Wrap with soup on the side. Both the wrap and thesoup were quite good. The other order was Chicken & Shrimp Pad Thai and it was really good.\n\nI have attached pics although Iapologize for pictures of partially eaten food (didn\'t think to do it until we\'d been eating). The soup was cream of broccolialthough you can\'t really tell from the picture of my empty bowl lol.\n\nThe Manager/Owner/Chef stopped by to check if we werehappy with the food and service and he seemed quite genuine in his interest.\n\nThis restaurant has only been open for 2 weeks. The outdoor patio seems to be a permanent outdoor fixture which is nice as a lot of the outdoor patios at other restaurants thatwere around for 2 years of Covid restrictions are no longer there or functional. Inside the restaurant there are quite a fewtables and a large bar.\n\nIf you have any special requests, I am certain that if the Chef can, he will make every effort toaccommodate them.\n\nSo go ahead and try out this nice new restaurant with the large menu.
