I read a review for the Fuel House in Toronto Life, about there Calamari Po'boy sandwich. I knew I had to have it. So on a hot day I donned my leather jacket and ignored the constant calls from Ving Rhames' secretary so I could head up to Little Portugal (or Little Italy I don't even know).
I was a little concerned walking down College as all the patio'd restaurants were pretty packed and I was just by myself. I walked up Clinton and immediately it was dead, I found this old grey house that said FUEL HOUSE on it and, upon confirming with my phone's GPS, I knew I was in the right spot. It was dead on the inside and I wasn't even sure they were open but a nice fella welcomed me and I sat in the backyard patio. It was very "noice" and cozy and sunny. My server was friendly and cool and attentive. I had a $7 Sapporo and was looking forward to burging on this squiddy burger.
The sandwich I was presented with was amazing and I got fries as well which came with a ketchup and mayo dip thing. I for some reason thought the calamari rings would be deep fried and not squibbly so that threw me off. It wasn't what I was expecting but it was still pretty good. The fries were amazing though, and I don't even eat fries. Prices were reasonable.
I will definitely go back, but for a different meal, and more fries, perhaps a different drink. It was a nice time and service was speedy. However it was just me and two other tables occupied.
