This is a copy of my review on Trip Advisor.
Hey Carly! We promised ... Travellers ... This is a really nice place to rest your tired bodies.
We ended up in this little corner of the world because someone, at a service station on Portage Ave., had said "there's a resto up the street a bit". Supper, food ... we've had a day of walking around downtown Winnipeg and we needed refreshment and sustenance. Not many people and certainly no line up at the door ... but needs must, as the expression goes. In we went. The young waitress suggests we find a table and there's one in the corner, she's in with the menu in no time. I'm thirsty and ask for a "tall glass of water, like a beer glass, please." She was back quickly with one (normal) glass of water for my wife and ... a beer glass of water for me!!! We'd found our supper place for the next three nights.
Ah ... the food, right? Tasty, right-sized, uncomplicated but welcoming. All in the image of the place, its owner (whom we meet on our last visit) and also the manager/waitress: Carly. We were there three times and each of us ordered different meals, so a fair selection off the menu. I'd go back anytime. As for the price, I would class it as reasonable and good value.
But what will remain longer than the food taste is the fun service we had. On our arrival the second night we were part of the family or the 'regulars', "our" table awaiting. On the third visit, we met the owner who already knew about us!! I also remember that there were quite a number of "Save the dishes" drivers sweeping in and out. So we weren't the only ones liking the place, locals like it too.
Keep it up gals!
Oh ... and in case you want an ice cream, Carly said to go to the next corner up at the Sargent Sundae. And she was right. Join the line up and enjoy.
The other thing right at hand, after a meal at Gus & Tonys is the Assiniboine Park, across the street. More on that later, but really ... you can't miss this little corner of the world.
I went to Gus and Tony’s at the Park today for the first time. We had specially prepared lunch of lamb with roasted potatoes and rice with bean pilaf. It was not only absolutely delicious it was a wonderful experience. Arnaldo and his staff made us feel very welcome. The food and the company was outstanding. I highly recommend this restaurant.
Great food! Great service! Great people!
We had Gus and Tony's cater Christmas Eve dinner for us while my mom was in hospital. We booked a lovely private family room there and all the family came. It has always been our tradition to have ribs on Christmas Eve, and Gus and Tony's came through with flying colours! Great meal!
