Preliminary picks

Preliminary reads are early assessments from a smaller review sample, not full Seemor analyses.

Dinosaur Bar-B-Que B-range · Preliminary
Dinosaur Bar-B-Que delivers smoky meats, especially ribs and brisket, alongside generous, flavorful sides in a lively riverfront space. Most diners find the meal well worth the wait, though execution and hospitality can wobble during busy or late visits. Try: Ribs.
La Casa Restaurant B-range · Preliminary
Set in a distinctive, homey building with colorful art, a bar, and outdoor seating, La Casa delivers a fun night out. Food ranges from excellent brisket nachos and taco salads to bland, underfilled, or overly saucy dishes, while service is usually friendly but not immune to sharp lapses. Try: brisket taco salad.
Rabbit Hole Tavern B-range · Preliminary
This riverfront tavern has an appealing patio and views, with a loud, energetic interior and a broad American menu. Fish fries, poutine, rabbit dishes, pizza, and sandwiches earn real praise, but cold or undercooked food and severe service lapses also appear. Try: fish fry.
