Gizmos Chill Spot

Restaurant

😐 Second time here, first time eating there(first time they had no chicken, so we left). It's a nice Chilled environment, depending on the time u go there, it can be spacious, but it tends to get busy as the night gets old. Some menu item with chicken was unavailable, so I couldn't order jerk chicken,... People often mention good, service, great, time, drinks, menu, wait, customer, chicken, nice,

    Second time here, first time eating there(first time they had no chicken, so we left). It's a nice Chilled environment, depending on the time u go there, it can be spacious, but it tends to get busy as the night gets old. Some menu item with chicken was unavailable, so I couldn't order jerk chicken, but other menu items that had a little chicken was available (like chicken pasta). Overall the food tasted good. Some of the seasoning and dressing can be a bit much, especially for what I had. The appetizer I had was the loaded fries, but it had WAAAYYYY too much cheese, so that turned the appetizer into meal that filled me up before I got the main food. The chicken wings were very good. I had the same issue with my chicken pasta.... Wayyyyy too much pasta sauce... However the mash potatoes and potato wedges were proper. Ofcourse the drinks came in small cups and were expensive for that size. Some of their special drinks looked and tasted good. As the food is done to order, there is a little wait, so expect that. The staff members were friendly. They need to hurry and get a card machine, I had to leave to go draw the cash to pay for my stuff. The music can get a bit loud sometimes too.

    The wait time in this place is exhausting. After 20 to 25 minutes of getting the menu, we have to call a waitress to tell her we are ready to order. Then most of the food listed on the menu was not available. We then wait almost another 30min before we get the juice that was ordered. By the way I was served what should be a frozen juice in a beer cup. After 2hrs I finally get the food. Trust me it nuh worth the wait. Feel like me pay $5000 for 12 pieces of wings. So upset me not even take no pick. I would recommend Russell Sport Bar and Grill over Gizmos any day.

    An awesome restaurant, their drinks are lovely, their food is lovely and the ambiance is a killer. I've seen some complaints about wait time but it's a restaurant not a fast food chain, lol, if you didn't have to wait a while for the food that would either mean it wasn't freshly prepared or they didn't put an effort into it. 10/10 customer service.

    This place was really nice, clean and spacious. We visited in the early afternoon. The menu was limited as they had previously just catered two big functions, so we could only order the finger foods. The service was professional but the food was a little slow in coming to the table; that said it was delicious! The owner came over and had a chat with us, a really friendly and pleasant lady. I'm looking forward to my next visit and the full menu experience. πŸ˜‹πŸ‘πŸΎ

    The food was great. I enjoyed the ambiance. The in house DJ kept us entertained while we waited for our meal. The owner is always there to meet and chat with his guests, very welcoming guy. Overall we had a great experience. Party of 5. The only downside, you may wait a tad bit longer for some meals.

    My girls and I enjoyed the energy there, the 🍸 were good. Just the right amount of alcohol in the daiquiri. Wasn't much of a fan where the tequila was concerned. Overall good spot for drinking with friends...

    I went there last night and there was only one server there. And I waited about 2 hrs to get my food and another hr just to get my bill and pay it. Everything was nice, but they really need more servers. I felt bad for the one guy, so I remained patient because he was nice. I think his name was Christopher πŸ™Œ

    The ambiance was amazing. Customer service was ok. The meals were honestly delicious and had the right amount of seasonings. The only downfall was that the meals took a little longer than usual to be prepared. But it's a lovely place.

    Service was professional yet friendly. The food was great and the ambiance is superb and clean. The only flaw I had was the time taken to receive my food.

    Went for a date night , food was great, presentstion very 5 star rated, and I respect the fact that they have a dress code (which is strictly enforced by the way), the seevice was awesome!!!! My girlfriend had peanut allergies and they took the care to ensure that no peanuts were around. All in all an exceptional place

  • 1/5 alrick g. 1 year ago on Google
    The food was very overpriced and the fish tasted old(upset stomach), either it wasn't cooked the same day or the fish itself was caught long ago. The floor and tabletop were very slippery.

    This Resturant is so terrible I cannot begin to express how much I hate them....they took 3 hours to make me a pina calada and the place bearly had anyone there, on top of that they forgot to bring me one of my meals, just as I was about to leave after eating that's when they brought the cold food to me after 4 hours! The waiter acted like a robot, watever u do , don't go to this restaurant!!

  • 4/5 WΓ£Ε•Ε•Γ©Εˆ C. 4 months ago on Google
    Visisted last night the only issue is that I had to wait until a literally finish eat main course and about to leave before getting my juice that was ordered to serve with the meal, the variety of choice on the menu is limited the; menu needs to be updated. The atmosphere was nice along with food, one single waiter though but he was chilled very calm and collective, pretty chill guy. Otherwise from the long waiting time, yeah it an alright spot for couples in no rush and wants the time to communicate.

    Gizmo is a really cool place to chill... its always clean and provides peace of mind and the music is awesome. It's one of my favourite spot to chill. Only issue I have though is it can take some time for the food to be ready but besides that customer service is great, the food and ambiance is awesome.... great job!!!!!!

    I went to gizmos for my belated birthday, it was the first place that played my choice of music ( hip hop and afo beats ) dj had my dancing all night, the mixed drinks were great and the food was good and I will most definitely be heading there again, if not for food for mixed drinks and music.

  • 2/5 Drea A. 2 years ago on Google
    Ambiance is ok, but the wait for your order is far too long. Our waitress was extremely incompetent and almost 3 hours later, I left with no entrΓ©e and the only thing she got right was my appetizer.

  • 2/5 Ohhani E. 4 years ago on Google
    I had my wedding reception the decorater Is so nice so much manners 1 and 2 of the staff was nice but the others are disrespectful during my event one of them didn't have the common courtesy to tap me on my shoulder and talk to me just wave her hand rolled her eyes and walked off and some of staff where playing music and laughing loud during our event it was rude.

    Unprofessional waitress, worst customer service ever.

  • 1/5 Tia 4 years ago on Google
    This was the WORST experience I had at a restaurant ever. I will NEVER recomend anyone to visit here if you wanted value for your money. Firstly, the waitress had attitude and spoke to us like she didn't want to be there. Secondly, I ordered a Long island iced tea and it only had rum in it, when I asked if I could exchange it for something else, the waitress said she had to ask the manager. The manager didn't even come directly to speak to me, he spoke with a friend of mine, which was very unprofessional. The waitress then came and told me that I had to pay 50% for the price of the drink that I did NOT drink. How am I gonna pay for a drink that I did not drink? Being a former server myself I know what is expected and that wasn't it.

  • 1/5 Nastasia T. 4 years ago on Google
    Bought lunch here and I couldn't eat it. Too much egg powder or whatever season them put on the meat. The vegetable smell soooooooooooooooo bad. This is unacceptable!!!! Went back for a refund and was told I can't because of the time I ordered.

  • 1/5 Khrys R. 4 years ago on Google
    Ultimate trash very unprofessional... they wish to cater to a professional class but are unprepared for such people... brought a big group in and understood the challenges but there’s no excuse for two hours not to get an order to be told the item is 86 but I guess they won’t understand that term, wish them the best but I’ve lost my taste to their consistent bad service

  • 4/5 Khalil K. 2 years ago on Google
    Customer service is overall good. Sanitation is excellent and the tables socially distant. The quality and quantity of the meal to price ratio is good. Ambience is fair the multiple screens playing pg music videos with children present was a turn of this can be solved with better monitoring. There are clean bathroom facilities. The waiters were polite , respectful and efficient. The time taken to get the meal from the kitchen needs improvement. A good mixologist would a good investment and more social media promotion.
