We opted for the outdoor seating, and they provided a proper high chair for our daughter, which earned them some points. However, the menu we were given was quite limited compared to what we had seen online, with very few main course options available. This wasn't a huge issue, but the wine list was decent, and we ordered a bottle of Chianti after checking if we could cork it to take home if we didn’t finish it. We started with a few appetizers and a children’s pasta dish, which came out in a reasonable time. However, our appetizers took quite a while. The Caesar salad was just average, and the garlic cheese bread was cold and tasted a bit stale. Nobody came to check on us until long after we finished our starters, and no one offered to refill our wine. We eventually had to go inside to ask if we could place our order for the main courses. We ordered chicken parmigiana and porchetta. The description of the porchetta on the online menu referred to it as a stuffed pork belly, but when I asked the server, she described it as a pork chop. We ended up waiting nearly an hour for our main courses to arrive. Around the 40-minute mark, the manager came out to ask if we had been overlooked, and we mentioned that we were getting pretty hungry, but we still waited nearly another 20 minutes. Unfortunately, the main courses were not good. The chicken parmigiana was a frozen chicken cutlet with some cheese on top. My porchetta was a small piece of dry, overcooked pork belly no larger than a lamb chop, and it was practically inedible. The potatoes served with it were cold and greasy. The green beans were fine, but for $28 a plate, I was disappointed. I've had better meals at East Side Mario's when I was in school for half the price. For a tourism destination like Prince Edward County, which prides itself on locally sourced food, this experience was truly disappointing.

Waitresses walked by multiple times and no service so we walked out and got seated at the Drake Devonshire. Don't waste your time at this place.
