Einstein's Cafe - Guelph

Our waitress Sam (I think was so pretty and nice and sweet all night long. Would highly recommend she get a pay raise! Great environment :

I was in Guelph in 2012 quite a bit for work and discoverd Einsteins. It was my go to place for creative, imaginative and all around excellent food.I am back visiting and took my wife and her cousin/ hubby for dinner, hoping it was still as good. It was, and everyone loved it. One of the many things I loved about Einstein was the amazing soups that you cannot get anywhere else. Last night the carrot corriander soup was right up there with the best.We started with warm cornbread which was killer. Prime rib special was amazing ask for horseradish, it is homemade and special. Wife and cousin had sweet potato quesadilla and loved them.Our server Kay was great and ran after us when we left without our boxes of food. My wife commented how the prices seemed very reasonable and after seeing huge portions and quality she was more impressed.We were stuffed and were going to take carrot cake to go but sadly they were out. All in aĺl it was like visiting an old friend and realizing we are still best pals.Too bad we live so far away.

Really cute place to eat, love the cozy interior. A must visit for any Guelphite. Their patio is nice too since the neighborhood is quiet.If I had known the sweet potato quesadilla came with a bed of plain rice beneath it, I would've asked for a substitution. The quesadilla itself was delicious and their Caesar salad was perfect. I'd return just for the caesar.Very interested in their experimental meals, which is also what I'd come back to try.

The waitress behaves like she is doing you a courtesy to let you dine there. Our table location was very poor, and she proceeded to indicate most tables had a standing reservation . Aha for the special folks I assume. We had a reservation. My pasta was very poor and she explained to me each meal is cooked especially for the individual. Hmmmmmmmmm guess I am once again not special enough. I have been a server for many years, either their staff requires retraining on CUSTOMER SERVICE or they don 't actually need patrons.

Once again, the food was great, the service was outstanding the the environment was conducive to mingling .. which we wanted ..Rocky and staff .. well done.Parking: Limited but okay
