Just got better. Before, you got decent burgers and fries. Now, you get great service from the employees, and even better food made by them.

I would suggest eating here if you plan on not eating for the rest of the day. Everything that tastes great here is packed with calories, fat, carbohydrates, and the price is like a nice sit-down restaurant. I got the Six Dollar Jalapeno Burger value meal with an extra patty and extra jalapenos. Holy sh*t, it is really good for a fast food burger. After you eat, you basically feel like a sumo wrestler walking out. WARNING, you may need to be rolled out pf thw restaurant after your meal.

Excellent excellent brunch spot. For review #100, a 5 star review for a 5 star restaurant is definitely fitting. Casbah does brunch, lunch and dinner, but brunch is my favorite meal and also what they do best. I ordered their prixe fixe brunch option which is a choice of an appetizer, brunch dish, and drink for $22. I started off with smoked salmon and had the waitress recommended braised lamb and eggs as an entree and a mimosa to drink. My companion ordered butternut squash & apple cider soup, wild mushroom omelet, and a glass of fresh orange juice. While waiting for our food, we munched on their complimentary pastry basket consisting of super moist mini-muffins, scones, and super rich and buttery biscuits with honey butter. The smoked salmon came with capers, minced red onion, crumbled egg, a drizzle of aioli, and a beautiful fried potato cake. There was just the perfect amount of everything on the dish; the potato cake was just big enough to balance out the saltiness of the smoked salmon and the capers of course paired beautifully with the smoked salmon. I tried some of the butternut squash & apple cider soup and it had some a pretty complex flavor. My entree reminded me of an eggs benedict with a twist: grilled sourdough topped with spinach, braised lamb shoulder and two poached eggs. I love braised meats because braising can do such wonders to tougher cuts. The braised lamb shoulder was flavorful, tender, and super rich. The best part about poached eggs is sopping up the extra yolk with bread and it just tasted better with the sauce of the lamb soaking into the sourdough to soften it up a bit. This dish itself is enough to make me a regular. I tried my companion's home fries which came with this slightly spicy ketchup (I think it's house-made) and also a piece of her omelet which was pretty good too. Service was good, ambiance was good, portions were big, quality was excellent, AND they take reservations. Sometimes I don't mind waiting the half hour it takes to get seats at some restaurants (Point Brugge, Coca Cafe, etc.), but most times I'd rather spend time with people in the restaurant at a table rather than waiting outside, especially now with winter approaching.

Heavens to Betsy! When I popped into this place to meet Miss Jenny L, I initially thought she'd totally dropped the ball! GG is not the most polished looking of places and I'd go as far to say it looks a little shabby, a little cheap and a tad on the garish side. But that's all so minor when it come to everything else. Service wise it's spot on. Friendly, swift and non intrusive (the holy trinity!). However, it's the food where this place really hits the 4/5 stars. With a modest menu consisting of breakfasts (all day I thunk), burgers and sandwiches, it's easy to navigate and promotes the feeling that they don't do a lot, but what the do, they do well. This was most certainly the case with the 'Ultimate' breakfast which managed to defeat me (I know! I've let down my gender and my Glasgonian brethren). The 'Ultimate' hopped into my life with it's scrambled eggs, muffin, bacon, venison sausages (I'm gonna say yum, but in truth I've never really been a big venison fan), haggis (genuine yum) and salad (hahahahahahahahaha). It was awesome and stands out as one of the best I've had in a good while. As with Jenny, I'd reserve the fifth star to see how it deals with a bigger crowd and entirely agree that a dinner munched in the lower seating area could well be the saddest occasion known to man. Something as simple as a lick of paint and some tlc could easily see this place be outstanding. For now, it's just plain awesome!
