What Douglas H doesn't like about Commodore Restaurant:
Went the other day for breakfast. Hadn't been here in a few years, but have eaten here for more than 20 years. The food is diner quality, but like most restaurants, portions are far less now. Would go again, but prices have risen so dramatically to be on level with far better food places. Not sure I will return again. I can get a pretty nice breakfast for the $17 this cost me. View all feedback. What dadiohead likes about Commodore Restaurant:
Had lunch with a friend at this icon of the 60s style “Western and Chinese Cuisine” diners. Now in the hands of the third generation family members you can get a smoked meat Rueben or the Chinese lunch special (complete with Campbell’s soup). It’s retro, it’s comfortable, it’s fantastic. It’s not fast food ... it’s just plain good food. View all feedback.

Love this place. Diner style food with great specials or Chinese food if that's what you're in the mood for. Delicious and cheap!

Edmonton's Commodore Restaurant is a beloved classic that has been serving up simple, hearty meals for over 75 years. The diner offers a mix of Western and Chinese cuisine, with retro charm that will transport you back to the 60s. The portions are generous, the service is friendly, and the prices are affordable. The food is not gourmet, but it is solid comfort food made with care. The owner, Dave, keeps the atmosphere lively with live music, and the staff are always happy to welcome new and returning guests. Although the prices have risen slightly in recent years, the value you get for your meal is still worth it. Whether you're a regular or a first-time visitor, you'll feel right at home at the Commodore.

A rare restaurant experience. The Commodore is a classic family-run cafe like those I visited with my dad as a child in Toronto in the 1960s. Not fine dining. S...
