| - I used to frequent this one when I lived nearby on Nelson street, aka Screaming-Drunk-People-Central. The service is always great here, and the food is on par with other Jack Astor's, for the most part...depending what you order.
I took away a star because my beer glass tasted like vanilla the other day, which was terrifying and stressful! Well no, but if anything it was weird and confusing. Also, when you order poutine at this location it appears that they put it in a bowl first (like the other locations serve them in), but then they dump it out on a plate so that your poutine is sitting on your plate, looking at you all sad, in the shape of a bowl. It's strange. It's also cold in the middle.
The Jack Astor's on Front Street (by University) is better IMO. Much better atmosphere there, no matter where you sit. The bar area there is much more lively than the one here, which is often half empty. This one is ok if you need somewhere to go before going next door to watch Peeta and Katniss.
