This place is good for:
- 2 people - large groups did wait longer than everyone else
- good size and tasty brunch if you're OK waiting for a table
- if you like the diner atmosphere
This place is not good for:
- large groups - even groups of 4 or more
- if you're really hungry and can't wait to eat
I came here on a Sunday at around 12 pm with a group of 3. We waited about 30 minutes - mostly in the cold as it's a small place and there were many other people waiting.
What I ate: Eggs Benjamin ($16.50) - 3.5/5
- the eggs and hollandaise sauce with the salmon were perfect
- I wasn't a fan of the apple coleslaw - I'd prefer some berries, mixed fruit, or even some mixed greens
- the potato rosti was OK - I've had better homefries at other brunch places (for example, Insomnia near bloor and bathurst)
Service - 3.5/5
- the host and server were friendly. However, there was no system for those waiting. I would recommend taking phone numbers and sending notifications via text to confirm if those waiting can still make it or not. I find that many restaurants are starting to do this and it definitely helps to provide better service.
Overall, in my experience, I'm not sure the wait was worth the meal. It was good, but I would go back to try other plates, like the crepes and waffles, to be a better judge.
