Reviews for Loch Side - Bar & Lounge in Burlington, ON

The only reason I gave 3 stars is because of the friendly waitress we had today, and the location, near the lake and we were... seated on the patio which was nice, the inside looked decent too. But i wouldn't return for the food. I ordered the crab cake,it was a decent size, but I doubt coleslaw is usually served warm? And the crab cake itself was BARELY WARM, felt like it wassitting out or barely re-heated in a microwave. NOT HOT AND CRNCHY like a crab cake should be. Very few options to choose fromon the menu as well. On top of that, the menu had remnants of other ppls' food on it. My stepdaughter ordered the crabmac-n-cheese that had FAKE crab meat but cost $26.00. Not to mention we received cutlery in a dirty napkin. Maybe try your luckbut as for me, NOPE. Read more

A restaurant that definitely deserves 5 stars. The food was absolutely amazing with so much flavor. The ambience and location is... right in the heart of Burlington and offers a chic look and feel to your dine in experience. Alex the hostess/bar tenderprovided excellent service with great recommendations. We started off with the Fried Halloumi Popcorn which was so flavorful anddelicious. The entree's were the Winter Salad and the Mushroom Brie Burger. Both dishes are a must try. I cant wait to come backand try the other items on the menu. Read more

My husband and I came in yesterday and saw the reviews and wanted to give it a try as I don?t see many Scottish restaurants... around (at least where we live). We ordered the crab cake, Cajun chicken pasta and pulled pork sandwich. The food is deliciousand the service is good. The only thing that was a little bit off was that the coleslaw that was served with the crab cake wasbrown. I brought it up to the manager and the server and they fixed it right away and gave us another salad. The drinks arereally good at this place as well. If you haven?t been here then you definitely need to give it a try! Read more

Thank you Michelle for a wonderful afternoon experience.We will be returning again soon thanks to our server and the kitchen! Read more

Drove to our Burlington favorite hangout city near the lake. Was looking for a place to have dinner. Found this hidden gem right... across from the lake. Ordered a strawberry salad and added delicious large garlic shrimp to the meal. My spouse had the Quinoaburger awesome ! What a delight. Food was delicious and filling. Service was great as well. Awesome area for shade on a hot dayand beautiful scenery of the Lakeshore.. Only thing I could say was to have inside air conditioning option and prices a bit morereasonable.. Read more

We came by because the area is a great location and the interior looked nice. I thought I would have the quinoa burger as my... vegan option but they said it wasn?t vegan due to egg being in the patty. I got the quinoa salad instead without halloumi butI?m not sure where the quinoa was. Just wilted spinach salad for $17.50. All of us at the table didn?t finish our meals. Ketchupcame in plastic ramekins? My friends said the crème brûlée was awful. The cocktails had melted ice, no taste and laughablegarnishes. The restaurant was completely empty so there was no reason the kitchen and bartender couldn?t do a great presentationon our meals and drinks. Unfortunately, there would be no reason for us to come back. Read more

Girlfriend and I came for lunch and we?re glad we did. We loved the atmosphere and the food was even better. Our server Michele... was very inviting and made our dining experience unforgettable. From the moment we sat down to when we left she was such adelight. She was very knowledgeable about the drink and food items and we couldn?t be happier with her recommendations. Willdefinitely be back soon! Read more
