| - Bymark has a restaurant in the tunnels of Toronto as well as a bar that sort of "peeps" up to the street level. My review is for the bar portion only.
There was something unidentifiably cool about this bar -- a random glass-walled enclosure sitting outside the TD building in the middle of the financial district. Leather couches, dim lights, soft background music, and an attentive & attractive staff. A weird, deserted, distant, but warm kind of place. Classy, modern, dark, high end.
Something in me clicks with the atmosphere of the Toronto financial district. During the holidays, it's gorgeous with the enormous Christmas tree outside and snow all around. This bar is as close to outdoor seating that you can get in Toronto during the winter.
Wish I could tell you that the drinks were amazing, but I basically just drank the peatiest scotch I could find and an unknown but decidedly not small number of manhattans. Which, yes, was amazing. But how could it not be?
