The decor of the restaurant is very inviting and enjoyable. My wife and I ate on the patio and watched the sunset over the bay. The location is great and easily accessible, but our service was subpar. We entered the restaurant from its interior entrance and we were told we were put on the list to be sat so we went to the bar since the wait was only 15 minutes. We waited the 15 minutes and I went to check our spot on the list and we were never placed on it. We were sat 20 minutes later and after arriving at our table it took someone 15 minutes to notice we haven't been taken care of yet. The food arrived quickly and we had the cornbread as an appetizer. Growing up the south I was afraid of what Canadian cornbread would be like but this was probably the best cornbread I have eaten. I got the 2 piece fried chicken with the potatoes bravas and I was very pleased with my choice. My wife on the other hand got the chicken sandwich with fries. She enjoyed the fries but the chicken on the sandwich was paper thin. While here I tried a beer from the bar (their on tap selection is lacking) and the whiskey lemonade which was very tasty. Overall I would grade the food a 3.5/4 and the service a 2 with the atmosphere being a 4/5. If we are ever in the Toronto area again I may wonder into Joe Bird for a second time.
