    June 7, 2026 An outstanding and highly recommended dining experience! The food was so amazing and flavourful. The service was fabulous and friendly. They asked and paid attention to allergies. We sat at the bar. The Dinette Salad was so unexpected and delicious. We shared the Kosher Rib Eye steak which was perfectly prepared and succulent. Oh … and the Fries …. WOW! We complemented our meal with a glass of red wine each, one from Portugal and one from Italy. The wine selection is spot on. We ended the meal with the chocolate mousse and the cheese cake. All we can say is Arthur’s Dinette just elevated Monkland Avenue!!! Thank you !!! We will most definitely be back for more !!!
