Came here for Winterlicious. Just a short walk north from King and Yonge. Had reservations with my friend to sit at the bar. We assumed it would be more of a restaurant with the usual bar table but lbs seems to be more of a place for "after work drinks". Half of the seating is around the bar (square bar area). Nice decor. Everyone was dressed nicely (suits, office clothes).
My friend and I got pretty much the same thing for Winterlicious ($44 dinner): seafood chowder, 1lb lobster, and I got a pannacotta (she got the ice cream sandwich)
Chowder was tasty but not amazing. Decent portion and you could taste/feel bits of seafood in it. Came with two slices of toasted bread (mine was a little burnt)
Lobster was ok. Cooked just right and sliced up and cracked so I had to do minimal work to open it up. Came with some melted butter on the side and some spicy rapini (it was a little too spicy for me so I didn't touch it).
Pannacotta was nicely presented in a glass dish. Wasn't very sweet (in comparison to pannacottas that I've had at other places). Came with strawberry jam or compote on top.
My friend enjoyed her ice cream sandwich (it was kinda like a churro ice cream sandwich)
There was a woman sitting a few spots away from me and she got the steak option for Winterlicious and it didn't look very good (small portion and it didn't look very appetizing... Looked like a brown gravy mess on mashed potatoes). She asked why her steak dinner didn't looked like some other guy's dinner (she pointed across the bar to some other meal) and the bartender said that the guy's order was from the regular menu and not the Winterlicious menu (his food looked good... Looked like a proper steak and had a side of veggies and potatoes).
Server was attentive and friendly. All in all, a decent meal. Not the best seafood dinner I've had but it was ok.
