The Good Son is a great place for a casual dinner. Here are a few things to note as you plan:
1. Pizzas. They specialize in pizzas with a drier (not greasy) crust. The Moana Loa is delicious.
2. In addition to pizza, they do comfort food such as a jerk shrimp appetizer, steak frites, steak tartare, burgers, salads, etc. This is the place to come with a group when you are not sure how to please everyone.
3. The place has a fun/strange vibe (lots of 100 year old photos all over the walls) that attracts a youthful crowd from Liberty Village and other nearby neighbourhoods.
4. The restaurant is loud. If you want an intimate conversation, best try elsewhere. It gets loud in here at dinner.
5. Service is very good. The staff are attentive and quick with refills, cheques, etc.
