| - Great addition to the Toronto restaurant scene. Everything worked; the service was friendly, great ambiance, food, and price.
Even if you don't sit by the open kitchen ~ charcutterie, swing by for a look. It's the real deal, and you enjoy your lunch knowing it couldn't possibly be fresher.
I'd describe the ambiance as loft meets pub but with an edge. Exposed brick, creative lighting, and whimsical art. It's all really well done without going over the top. A wonderful neighborhood style restaurant that you can visit often.
The emphasis is on local. There is even a map that highlights the origin of various ingredients, farmers, and suppliers. Fresh!
The soybean oil with balsamic vinegar and fresh house made bread rocks to start. We had two burgers and one special of the day, a ham sandwich on crunchy house made brioche style role. Three thumbs up! Starters included oysters (fresh, can't imagine a better experience) and salad that featured grains and fresh lettuce.It could have been a meal in itself. Fries and onion rings are worth saving room for.
Couldn't do dessert, but make sure to try a coffee. Big flavor, whether coffee, latte, or cappuccino.
Graham greeted us at the door and was our server. Nice job.
We'll be back often.
