By far my favourite lunch place in Liberty Village. The patio in the summer is to die for - and to burn for - I'm currently nursing a burn, but it was worth it! I love that you can sit on a patio - catch some rays and not hear a peep of the street below you or the construction around you.
The design is funky and classy and the food is yummy - and always fills me up - sometimes to much. I don't find this place pricy, but others might- it's CHEAP in comparison to The Brasen Head and has much better food and more of a selection for drinks.
The restaurant is kind of split into the Bar and then the dining area - with all the TV's hanging over the bar - so if you're not there for a Soccer or hockey game, you don't have to watch or listen to it. The staff (all pretty girls) are nice, but can be a bit ditzy. Obviously this place caters to the male business man lunch, but that's kind of the area.
I have to say - the day time manager - his name I have yet to learn - is SMOKING HOT! He's super sweet, always comes over to the table to see how you're doing - if everything is right and if you're just enjoying your time. It's the little touch that makes this place stand out from other restaurants in the area. Not matter the size of your party, he comes over. He even offered me sun block for the burn I'm nursing, but I wasn't fast enough on the witty line of "if you apply it for me"....maybe next time :)
A friendly note - it does get busy at lunch - so head over promptly, or go after the rush.
