Begbie's Karaoke - Quesnel

In town for a surprise Birthday party we had to lay low to not tip the party girl off. We have stayed at the Tower before and picked it again as it's good value for the dollar. We had eaten lunch here on another visit and were satisfied with the meal. Not earth shattering but pretty tasty. As we had driven most of the day we didn't want to do more driving to get dinner. We saw that they were advertising a new pizza menu so we decided to give it a try. We make pizza at home all the time so our expectations were pretty high. We were not disappointed at all as the pizza was very tasty, large and covered in toppings which were great. We ate as much as we could put down and saved the rest in our rooms fridge. Top drawer pizza in our mind. In the other hand, the following morning we went to the diner for breakfast, and probably have only had a worse meal once or twice. Our server wrote down our order on a piece of paper that had scribbles all over it, so we wondered how she was going to get it right. We were spot on with our assessment! She talked quite a bit to no one, took my tea to the wrong table and left it there even though the patron made it clear he didn't order it. I finally got my tea after asking a second time. Our food came out totally wrong with scrambled and not over medium and sunny up. When she said to the lovely K, scrambled, and was told no, slid the plate to my side. I told her no sunny side up, and she said no scrambled, I wrote it down. The food was taken away and she came back with her notes and the entry ticket she had and tried to show us that we were wrong. When she was proven that she was wrong she blamed the kitchen for not reading what she entered. The lovely K's pancakes were forgotten, and then promised in two minutes. She got them after I had eaten my entire breakfast, other than the potatoes that were barely warm, and dotted with potatoes that had black spots all over them. Needless to say they were not eaten. The toast was so cold that the butter wasn't even remotely melted into the bread, and it was so dry that jam had to be put on each piece so you could choke it down. Once again when the bill was presented we were shown paperwork to show that the kitchen was to blame, which was not the case. My tea was taken off the bill for our troubles with the service and the food. I realize that people have a bad day from time to time, but the vast difference between the pizza the night before, and the fiasco that was breakfast cannot be overlooked. We've never had a server that was so vehement in her opinion of doing a great job, and that we, or the kitchen, were at fault for her shortcomings. We'll stay at the hotel again for sure, but will not subject ourselves to the breakfast situation that was amongst the worst experiences of our travels.

I went to this restaurant based on recommendations on yelp, I was pleasantly surprised how I was warmly welcomed I was when I came in. I had the chicken stirfry on rice, it was a very large meal and very tasty. The garlic toast was a little on the small side but the meal overall was great. I found the price to be a on the high side for a stir-fry, nevertheless I was very pleased with the service and the food. My server's name was Ariadne, She was super attentive and very hospitable. If I ever drive through again, I definitely will be stopping back for another meal. I also enjoyed the karaoke which just happen to be starting when I arrived.

We stopped in on our ride from Smithers to olympia and had an amazing dinner here. The portions are large. The food was delicious. I had the new to the menu seafood fettuccini and when I first saw it I thought not much seafood but once I tucked in there were small pieces of seafood deliciously flavored in every single bite. The baked spaghetti had three enormous meatballs but also had meaty sauce in every bite. Couldn't finish the dishes so would come really hungry or share

Nicole took good care of us and introduced us to a new shot: the Burt ie Burt Reynolds. Very tasty. Mustaches rule!

Ordered the dill spaghetti. Was fresh and tasty. After a long day travel on the Rocky Mountaineer, you should definitely give this place a shot.
