Swiss Chalet Rotisserie & Grill

This is a Swiss Challet Express store — it just happens to have a couple of tables in the back. For neighbourhood folk its perfect, though we catch the occasional «tourist» looking for a full-​service restaurant… which this isn’t.
There’s no table service as there aren’t any waitperson’s. Convenient, as there is no «tip» button on the Interac machine :-)
But, what they do have is that extra good swiss pidgin n’ juice that all Canadians have come to know and love.
It gets better, and greasier. They have free Wifi
Oh, and the driver’s that mingle. They’re nice folk.

Partner ordered a couple of more times. They are back on track — lets hope it stays that way.

Thank goodness it was dark in there, well lit and this dirty little stop might have been horror movie ready. Along with the bad lighting this was the least franchise-​like location I have seen. While décor is not highly important to the eating experience, when it actually detracts from the experience I have an issue. This Swiss Chalet was less chalet and more axe murderer hideout, filled with large amounts of dollar store paraphernalia which both collected dust, and took up valuable space.
As far as food went it was your standard sauce and fries, I tried the new fishthey are offering and it was alright. Tartar sauce was a relishy mess tasting more like sweet and sour sauce than said tartar, and if I was you I would just leave the tiny coleslaw in its tiny cup as it was pretty bland.
Bottom line… I love chalet sauce, but this restaurant made it turn in my stomach, bring your wet wipes if you dare.

I must echo Tiffany’s review: this «express» Swiss Chalet location was filthy. The floors were especially disgusting and none of the tables were cleared. I mistook a customer for an employee rigorously wiping down a table and chairs before sitting down. I should have done the same.
On top of the grime uncharacteristic of a Swiss Chalet, the menu board did not have all of the typical items — it was a pared down menu with only the basics. Not sure if it’s because it was a ‘no frills’ location or because they don’t have a full kitchen facility. There is no table service — you order at the counter and take it away yourself. That is, provided you’re able to secure some space at the counter in the first place and elbow one of the drivers milling about out of the way. There needs to be a better division for customers ordering vs. employees picking up orders for delivery. This was a terrible Swiss Chalet impression, and I expected more from The Beaches as there isn’t another one for miles.
Also, did you know that a plate of Swiss Chalet fries (mmm) contains 544 calories? Yeah.

Eating at Swiss Chalet is something I look forward to and even get excited about. The Swiss Chalet in the beaches however was a disappointment last week.
The «Express» dining area contained tables filled with trays and garbage that needed to be cleared.
The creamy chicken soup was not creamy. It was opaque, but very watery and unappetizing. It seemed as though the kitchen staff had added extra water to get more milage out of the pot of soup.
Swiss Chalet delivery drivers were milling about in the dining room and hard to maneuver around when leaving.
The chicken on a kaiser was good and the dipping sauce heavenly as usual, but in the end — you can do better Swiss Chalet. I have seen you at your best at other locations and this was weak.
