We've tried this restaurant a few times; each time hoping the previous visit was just an off day. The food is adequate, nothing special but the service is terrible!
On one visit the staff took us to a table that was shoved away sort of by itself in a bit of an alcove. We were not happy with this table and asked to be moved to another one. The staff person was not happy about this but finally did "allow" us to be seated at another table. The restaurant was empty, we were the only diners and it was NOT rush hour so what was the problem? During our time there not another customer came in.
On another visit the staff person directed us to a table, a very small table. It was a bit uncomfortable, being so small it could not accommodate our arms (but I noticed that it had leaves which could be lifted up in order to make it bigger so I lifted them up. The waitress came around and angrily dropped them down. We were so shocked ! Once it computed what she had done we left without ordering or eating. We couldn't understand why this should bother her so much. It did not obstruct her path in any way and the restaurant again was empty sans us.
The place has been up for sale for a few years and seldom open. Recently there has been a big white sign on the front that indicates they serve breakfast, lunch and .... I couldn't read the rest. However I doubt if we'll try it again, especially if it's run by the same owners (must find out if that is so)>
a suitable place to "lunch with the girls"
It's hard to find a suitable place to have lunch with a friend in Wasaga. Most are "family", run of the mill spots. Goodies is the ideal eatery to meet, take your time over a salad, quesadilla, or whatever strikes your fancy and just chat. No one rushes you and the food is great. It's a little gem on Mosley!
If you want a taste of good o'l down home Louisiana cooking you will have to try Goodies.
The food is served hot and everything on the plate is is measured to perfection.
Once again we have enjoyed a fantastic meal. The place was packed but the service was still incredibly friendly and fast. Our friends both had the filet and said it was the best they've had in ages. The duck was to die for and the fresh pickerel was out of this world. Would have like just a few more croutons on the caesar salad but that's just a personal thing. The desserts here are just plain decadent, definately a must.
I've heard nothing but "rave" reviews about this place, so I decided to try it with a few friends. That was the first and LAST time I ever go there. We waited almost an hour for our food and the restaurant wasnt even busy. We all ordered water and they gave us tap water that had things floating in it. My crepes tasted like flour and the sauce was gross. The "Crab" was immitation crab meat. Nothing about this place appealed to me at all. Also the owner kept talking to us which was SUPER annoying.
I would never recommend this place to anyone, I actually tell people to not even bother, and just recommend one of our other GOOD restaurants in Wasaga. I can't believe this place is still open.
the food was nothing special brushetta had a wierd taste and the crab in the crab au gratin tasted like it was still semi frozen. My mom liked the food though, but not the sauces on the steak.
Excellent food and presentation, service first class and great ambience. We've ejoyed many breakfasts, lunches and dinners in this restaurant in the past ten years and have never been disappointed. The best restaurant in central Ontario.
This meal was absolutely amazing. Don't let outside appearances deceive you. This place has got the best food this side of Toronto, even better than a lot of places in Toronto.
This is definately a hidden gem.
The place was steady and the service was good.
The food came out pretty fast, there was plenty of it and the prices are very reasonable.
The server told us all of the salad dressings are made fresh on the premises as well as most items on the menu.
Give it a try, you won't be disappointed.

We really love this little place. Atmosphere is very cozy. We dined by the fireplace. Our server was very friendly and funny. She took great care of us and made us feel very welcome.
We've never been disappointed with the food...most of which is made in house and very fresh. The garden salad is very crisp and the dressings are all made fresh.
I had the Lousianna chicken which is very spicy served on rice with vegetables that are cooked perfectly. The medallions of beef were delicious with a croquette potato shaped like a pear....
Presentation is great. Highly recommend this place....
We just read a review in the On the Bay and it was right on. The breakfast was fast, hot and delicious. And you get fresh, fresh fruit.
6 bucks for the biggest omelett I've ever seen, homemade homefries, delicious toast (I think the bread is baked fresh there), pineapple, cantaloupe and watermelon. I was too busy with mine to notice what buddy had.

Unbelievable food, for an area in need of a fine dining place to eat, you can't ask for better. In the Wasaga Area restaurants that actually can produce a quality product over and over again at a resonable price are few and far between. The staff, food and overall eating enjoyment are second to none. Don't be swayed by people telling you to eat elsewhere, try Goodies
I eat here 3 or 4 times a week and have always found it to be fresh and fantastic. The servers are great and very helpful. I'm not sure where the other guy ate, but they're closed Tuesday and Wednesday nights and I guess its hard to say what you ate when you don't know what was on the menu...
The best restaurant around for miles...
And I really do eat out alot.
the schnitzel with pasta was delicious. Too much, had to take some home. I like this place. It is very comfortable and the girls that work there work very hard and they're very helpful especially to an old lady like me.

We love the open kitchen concept...I was told to never eat anywhere that I couldn't see them cooking my food. Calamari was huge and delicious. My husband had the crab and it was delicious. The seafood platters were filling...2 lobster tails, half a dozen prawns and homemade crabcakes. All was cooked perfectly and you could taste the freshness. The caesar salad was crisp and very good. Maybe a few more croutons.
For dessert we had a pumpkin cheesecake that was out of this world. We definately recommend this place to anyone. Has a very cozy atmosphere, fireplace in the dining room and extremely friendly staff. They can easily compete with city restaurants.
Since moving here in September I had heard from...
Since moving here in September I had heard from several people that this place was good. Finally made it for dinner and was certainly not disappointed. If anything I was completely taken by surprise at the quality and freshness of the food. You could tell everything was made fresh. Appetizers were delicious..maybe just a bit too big. My filet was cooked to perfection with an incredible sauce. My wife's chicken was perfectly seasoned and not too spicy and my brother raved about the pork. Portions are very generous. Our server was great. Very friendly and attentive. The owners come over to welcome us to town with a delicious Chocolate dessert....
This IS our new place to dine....Highly recommend it.
I had the Soup and Whitefish, my boyfriend had the Caesar Salad and Filet Mignon. My Whitefish was absolutely delicious. It was lightly floured and panfried. It was so flavourful. I've never had anything like it. My boyfriends filet was so tender and the sauce on it was out of this world. The soup was home made carrot and it was delicious and the caesar salad was the best. It was like the entire meal was made just for us. We will be going to this resaurant a lot. Service was good, considering the place was packed. Prices are fantastic.

My wife ordered the Julienne salad. Probably the biggest salad we've seen and it was served with homemade salad dressing. She said it was delicious. I ordered the Fish and Chips with the Butternut squash soup to start. Soup was amazing. The fish and chips are a new thing to the menu and they were spectacular. Our server was one of the owners and she was absolutely wonderful...great sense of humour. We love the place and will definately recommend it to everyone we know. Many of the items display are for sale, artwork by local artists. Clean, great decor, friendly and great food.
This is probably the best place we've eaten in the Georgian Triangle. We spend a lot of time on the road and eat in a lot of restaurants. Very comfortable, very friendly...almost like visiting family.
