Our Guestbook
“ We selected this restaurant from a Google search. We walked in and there was a short 15-20 min wait. It is a small restaurant which apparently used to be a laundromat. Once we were seated our server was on top of it and provided excellent service. The food was great and an excellent value. ”
“ Came for a work outing with a large-ish group, everyone in my party was thoroughly impressed with the value and taste of the food and drinks! I got the brisket main which was surprisingly hefty for the price point and mega delicious. The space is fairly small, it is very popular and fills up quickly, I’d recommend reservations to guarantee your spot. The staff are accommodating and welcoming. Definitely coming back! ”
“ Fabulous restaurant that is very popular for many reasons - friendly service, delicious food, affordable prices, a cozy atmosphere, plus a wide variety of popular food and drink options. I had the spicy wings, and they were great. Ashley, my server was amazing! Ashley was super friendly, offered great advice on the food and drinks and I had a great time because of her wonderful personality. I highly recommend The Third. ”
“ If you can get a table at this adorable spot, consider yourself very lucky. Worth the wait. Food is amazing, very reasonably priced, service is fantastic (Ashley was so kind, knowledgeable and wonderful) and they always have rotating taps of craft beer. Not featured on their menu but AMAZING: a Caesar and the poutine. ”
“ Stopped by today for the first time, my friend and I were both impressed by the great service, delicious food and reasonable prices. We both have the grilled cheese with beef brisket, it was yummy and I would get it again. We both said how it was the perfect serving size. I will definitely go back! ”
