This restaurant was recommended to me by two people and a friend and I finally made it there. I go along that part of Bloor all the time; but I guess I never go along Royal York because I had no idea this place was there. I was surprised at the size when we walked in. We had a lovely table by the window. I had lasagne and my friend had another pasta dish, both were excellent. As for the dessert menu - I've never seen one like it - spoilt for choice. The service was excellent - but not intrusive. We didn't require separate cheques, but I agree with comments here that seeing a sign saying not to ask seemed a bit weird ... although they do take separate credit cards. I don't really understand some of the comments here stating that the place is dated, or tacky decor. The patio looks charming, although there is a sign stating that there was a 2-hour limit to sit there.
It's a keeper.
