| - Visited Toronto for the first time ever for Caribana weekend and my friends and I were on the hunt for food after hours of dancing and walking for the parade. My best friend and I separated from the pack and stumbled upon this gem. We decided to eat here because we refused to continue walking and we were HUNGRY!!! I must say we were HAPPY we did. The decor of the restaurant was, as the name states, old school, but very stylish. It was very clean and the staff was EXTREMELY friendly. I really wish I could remember the name of our waiter and the two bartenders, but if they remember the two girls from NYC and our group of friends who came in after us, just know we LOVED you guys (and they taught us the Canadian national anthem).
Now onto the food. ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. My friend and I decided to share this platter of food that came with two half chickens, a full rack of ribs, two huge biscuits, a large side of baked beans, and two potatoes. This had to be the best meal we had during our entire trip to Toronto. Everything was cooked and seasoned to perfection!!! And their bbq sauce was off the hook!! The drinks were awesome and we just had an overall good time. Clearly we couldn't finish off all the food, but we surely devoured it hours later when we got back to our hotel.
We were all contemplating about moving to Toronto because of this restaurant. I really wish I would've made this yelp posting around the time of our trip because I would've been able to remember everyone's names, but the entire staff was soooooo amazing. Trust and believe we will be back the next time we visit.
