  • What a great experience! I had heard about this place all the way from Australian almost 2 years ago and said I'd have to try it if I was ever in Toronto. Fast forward and we had a single day and night in Toronto yesterdat and this was where we had dinner. Such a cool concept. The owners, a married couple who are not deaf but thought that deaf people needed a restaurant that they could have a better dining experience, were both on the floor and we spoke to the wife who said she was learning ASL at night school, she was really lovely and a great host. After you are seated you are told about the concept and shown the ASL tricks and tips guide then they bring your waiter over and she introduced herself via a translator and gave us some signs such as yes, no, please, thank you, enjoy. It's such fun trying to learn the words and then ordering in ASL. For someone who has never done any sign language before it was a great experience and the pictures are great at teaching you. We thought it was funny that in this restaurant non ASL speakers were the "difficult" tables and when we were there we saw a number of ASL people arrive and I'm sure the waitresses were like "phew, an easy table!" lol which is so great, I hadn't really ever thought how hard it must be for the deaf to eat out at standard restaurants! Anyway, now for the meal. We had the special 3 course meal for $35 each (plus tax and tip) where you pick from a few options that are on the regular menu. This is a great deal given the usual main courses are between $20-29. The food is pretty good, pretty standard fare. I really enjoyed the peppercorn sauce on the NY strip steak (which was also cooked well) and my bf had the Mahi Mahi which had really great blackening. The service is good, our server was great and super friendly! it is not particularly fast given the ASL newbies like us take forever to order, so definitely don't come here for a quick meal (not like you'd want to, we enjoyed trying to learn words over dinner). Loved the place and a very memorable dinner!
