This is my husband and I's favourite spot! It's cute and intimate and it gets busy quick. We go early and usually have no trouble getting a spot at the bar or a cute two-person table. Their fois gras is THE BEST in the city! Top-notch compared with most cities in fact, and I eat in NYC often. They serve blackbird bread which is also the best bread in Toronto IMO. We usually order the rib eye to share and it's tasty and juicy. As for dessert or a snack, if they haven't run out, get their butter tarts!
I love the service as well, they are relaxed and attentive at the same time, if ya know what I mean. My goal for 2018? to round up a few people to book their butcher table tasting menu.
We also love the food at Union, the sister restaurant and visit often - the atmosphere of the two spots are different but food is consistent and delicious!
