Regent Family Restaurant is one of those places that just feels like home the second you walk in. The owners, George and Nik, are genuinely good people. They’re always greeting everyone who comes through the door with a smile on their face or a joke in their pocket, making conversation, and creating that classic family restaurant feeling. This visit, I ordered the kids 2-topping 8” pizza, the kids poutine, and the Chicken Frazolaki with a side salad, fries, and a side of gravy. The salad was fresh and generous, with big chunks of tomato and cucumber. The Chicken Frazolaki was delicious, packed with feta, red onion, tomato, and their homemade tzatziki, which is honestly the star of the sando. It’s so creamy and flavourful The fries were golden and crispy, but let’s talk about the real main character: the gravy. Regent Family Restaurant has the best gravy. It’s thick, rich, and actually sticks to the fry properly, which is very important gravy behaviour. No watery nonsense here. The kids poutine was also delicious. Baked, cheesy, and coverered in that delicious gravy, this poutine deserves a spot on the Kids Meals Adult Appetite list. And the za? Amazing. Their housemade sauce has this sweet flavour that makes it stand out from the rest, and their housemade dough is thin, crispy, and just the right amount of sweet. It’s simple, nostalgic, and so, so good. Also earns a spot on the Kids Meals Adult Appetite list. Overall, Regent Family Restaurant is a solid local spot with great owners, comforting food, and the kind of gravy that deserves its own fan club.
