The service was great and the food was amazing! I ordered dinner for my sister, who has a gluten allergy, and I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of gluten free options! All of the food and drinks we got were amazing and definitely the best Vietnamese/thai I’ve had in a while. I would definitely recommend the vermicelli and iced coffee!
My husband and I took his daughter here along with some other family members to celebrate her graduation from university. She had eaten at this restaurant before but we had not. I have celiac disease, require all food to be gluten free and am very afraid of cross contamination. There is only a select few “safe” restaurants I will eat at on a special occasions and this is now one I will add to my list! I was aware ahead of time of the food selection thanks to the website clearly listing their menu and dietary restrictions, however our server was VERY helpful and lovely. All items at the salad bar and hot table were clearly labeled with gluten, dairy, nuts, etc. and our server had fresh gluten free cheese buns brought out to me that had not sat next to the other regular bread to reduce risk of cross contamination (although both breads did not touch on the table).
Our party of five (except me) ate every type of meat there was and we all agreed that the grilled pineapple was simply the best ! I don’t eat a lot of meat and the salad bar selection was excellent along with an order of shrimp. The servers were all friendly, prompt and clearly hard working.
Our bill was steep but well worth it. The quality of food and drink is evident. We cannot wait to eat here again. Thank you for the excellent experience.
Great burgers and fries! For people with celiacs, they have a gluten free fryer, so the fries are fair game! New gluten free buns that don’t instantly fall apart too!

UPDATE . THIS BAR/ PUB REFUSES MY SERVICES OVER A BURGER BECAUSE THEY CAN'T TAKE A SIMPLE ORDER. I'VE BEEN GOING OR WAS GOING FOR 3 MONTHS EVERY SINGLE DAY SPENDING MINIMUM 40 DOLLARS SOMETIMES EVEN TWICE A DAY. BUT I AM CELIAC AND THERE ARE SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS LIKE GLUTEN FREE BUN AND A PLAIN GRILLED CHICKEN WITH NOTHING ON IT.... IS THAT REALLY AN ORDER TOO HARD TO MAKE? AND ONE DAY OUT OF THE BLUE, A LADY COMES UP TO ME AND SAYS THAT I AM NO LONGER WELCOME TO THE BREWHOUSE ELLERSLIE AND SHE SAID FROM NOW ON, THEY WOULD NO LONGER BE TAKING MY ORDER AND TO LEAVE..I WAS NOT IMPRESSED. I HAVE SPENT THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IN THAT PLACE AND THE SERVICES THAT I'VE BEEN GIVEN WERE BASICALLY FIVE OUT OF TEN. A FEW OF THE GIRLS WERE VERY, VERY NICE(THEY WERE 10/10). SO NOW I AM FORCED TO DRIVE AN EXTRA 20 MINUTES. DEPENDING ON TRAFFIC PROBABLY LONGER, JUST TO GET THE SAME SANDWICH AND THE SAME ORDER, AND THEY ALWAYS GET IT RIGHT. AND FOR YOUR INFORMATION, I LIVE TWO BLOCKS AWAY FROM THE ELLERSLIE LOCATION, SO YOU CAN SEE MY FRUSTRATION. And multiple times they've made my order with a regular bun. Rather than the gluten free bun, which means i'm paying extra for a regular bun, and I needed my medication to offset some of the symptoms. In my opinion, this is unacceptable careless behavior and service.
We always have a pleasant experience at Original Joe's. The food is good. Our kids are welcome. The prices are reasonable. The service is great. Dig the burgers and that dill dip for the fries..kids options are decent. My only ask would be more gluten free options. A dedicated fryer for gf items would attract a lot more people and give us more options for our celiac daughter. Even my parents, one is vegan and one is rather picky, both enjoyed their meals and want to come back and that never happens.
We had an absolutely beautiful dinner, excellent food and service.
The Gluten Conscious menu options were fantastic (Avocado Bowl!! 😋will come back for that again for sure!)
Ordered 2 extra large and 1 gluten free last Thursday and they were really good! The person who had the gluten free said it was the best she ever had:)
Food was delicious, a friend and I got multiple dishes and split them. Lots of gluten free options. Only complaint was the waitress seemed a little in a rush with an empty restaurant and then there is no menus you have to scan with your phone.
Thanks to our server Holly who was so attentive to fast and friendly service and helped to make sure we had a gluten free breakfast for my daughter both days we were there. She even remembered the order on day 2! Thanks for being awesome Holly!
We have become regulars diners at Saffron for over a year as this south side restaurant has become one of our go to spots for spicy comfort food.
The venue is noticeably polished while this cleanliness standard has been maintained throughout our experience. I will mention I find the venue to be brighter than preference due to a personal light sensitivity however, we usually opt for a semi private booth in a slightly dimmer section. The modern interior is perfectly set up for events and get togethers with an open concept design for the majority of the restaurant which includes a lovely bar. While we don't regularly purchase alcohol within this venue they do have a large list of house cocktails at a reasonable price point.
We currently have favourite dishes at Saffron that we regularly order being; The Chili Paneer with a substitute of Cauliflower instead of Paneer. As Saffron offers options of spice level to their dishes this crispy cauliflower dish can be ordered mildly spicy with tons of flavor available or a high spice level that will provide a sure kick to your taste buds. I would recommend to order the milder version if you are new to spice. Alongside this we also order The Lamb Curry, this is a regular dish of choice for us anywhere we go and have never been disappointed here no matter the spice level. However, I have personal preference for a medium or higher option of spice level for curries in general and continue this trend here. We have also ordered and enjoyed The Goat Curry as well. A side of basmati coconut rice, gluten free roti and peppermint tea with honey accompanies our meal as this provide a lovely sweet side to our normally spicy dishes. If you do not have any sensitives or allergies I would highly recommend to upgrade specfically to their Garlic Naan ( not pictured ) as this always comes out hot and is the perfect match for any Curry.
Seating has always been quick alongside attentive service with short wait times. That being said the wait is always worth it, as we leave with the satisfaction of a full service meal that somehow mananges to also bring us the comfort that is usually only brought to you with home cooking. As always, we look forward to our next visit.

The food was great. We didn't stay and was there early on Sunday so it was pretty empty. It is a nice place. We had to order GF food and they made sure it was all prepared properly. The menu had a separate page for the gluten free choices. I had sashimi at a few different restaurants in the past few month and was disappointed. The sashimi here was great.
We will come back definitely to eat at the restaurant.
Worst service I’ve probably received, they have incredibly rude people working there specially the old age owner he even don’t know how to talk with girls who refuse to listen to you when you try to explain what you want. I have dietary issues and have ordered gluten free pizzas multiple times without issues, however they make it an issue. You want a pizza but instead you NEED gluten free crust? They tell you no you can’t do that. Along with the fact that they don’t like to communicate at all.
Every single person I’ve seen work here was incredibly rude and a horrible person to deal with.
Only delivery women is nice here who work with them .
I’ve given the place multiple chances but it’s never been a good experience.
Please don’t order from here and most of the time the don’t give you complete order they miss something in your order don’t waste time here .
there are more 2-3 option in Beaumont you can try from there .
