| - I went to Typhoon Lounge a few weeks ago for my ten year high school reunion. Now that I've dated myself, I'll get on with this ;).
The bar/lounge is deceptively large considering the apparently small footprint from the outside. The indoor area has room for at least 20-30 people seated, and probably 50-75 people standing. The outdoor patio is in the front, around the entrance. The bar is pretty long, and easily accommodated a large number of our group.
I went for the Garden Wrap for a vegetarian option (I was glad they had at least one or two vegetarian options, but not a great selection). Already overpriced at $15, I opted for the additional $3 to upgrade the fries for the sweet potato variant. I was not impressed. The fries were soggy and flavourless, and the wrap was just uninspiring. It wasn't awful, I just expect a much higher calibre for the price I was paying.
One thing I found quite interesting and endearing is the plastic mesh guard in the men's room urinal. Bear with me, I know we're in "weird" territory here. It's cute because it's a hockey net! I rather enjoyed the feeling of scoring the winning goal :P.
Overall, Typhoon Lounge is a perfectly adequate venue, but I probably won't be coming back simply because it's not really my scene, and the food was overpriced and disappointing to me. Take my experience with a grain of salt, but your mileage may vary.
