| - The ambiance of the main bar area where we were was dim and lively. The room was full of people talking and, while loud, it was never so loud that we had to shout to hear each other.
We waited about half an hour for a table for two and, so, had a few beers at the bar. It wasn't easy to squeeze in to order, but we managed it and were served by an absolutely lovely bartender who was friendly and I appreciated the effort she made to get to us (in my experience in these types of bar situations, such an effort is rare). Our waitress was also great. As was the hostess. So, top marks for service here for being professional and attentive without being formal or stuffy.
The beer selection is well curated with many familiar choices and a selection of things you won't find in the LCBO or a typical bar or restaurant. They were, unfortunately, out of Braufactum Progusta, the beer I was most eager to try. But these things happen. There was plenty of other things worth trying or revisiting.
We ordered a couple of pizzas which were great. Think Neopolitan meets Detroit style. Or maybe call it thin crust Detroit style? I dunno. The crust is crispy, thin, salty, and delicious. The Quatro was melt-in-your-mouth good. The Pomodoro (or whatever it was called again) sauce on the Margherita was spot-on.
I would go back to King Taps for beer and pizza in a heartbeat.
