| - I've been to The Harbord Room twice now and it's hands down my favourite restaurant in the city (Sorry Gio's!).
Both times I've had the Steak & Frites and holy fuck, it's the best steak I've had in my life. Get it medium rare and then just suck the whole thing down. Both times I've been tempted to lick the left over juices right off the plate, but this place is kinda fancy-like, so that would probably be frowned upon.
The last time I was there, the three annoying girls next to me all ordered the burgers and mother of God did they ever look and smell delicious (the burgers, not the girls). If only it wasn't for my impeccable sense of social decency, I would've totally punched one of the chatty Kathys in the face and stolen her juicy, perfectly cooked meat, along with the wonderfully moist egg bun that encased it, right off her plate.
The fries are great too.
And they have many a beer in various bottle sizes and lots of vino.
Oh, and Paul Gross hangs out there as well. So if you want a little Canadian celebrity in your life, this might be the place to go. It's tiny, but in the Summer their patio doubles their capacity - but reservations are always best.
I will go back often - well, as often as my bank account allows, that is...
