| - On our first visit to Toronto, we wanted a late brunch. So we hit up Yelp and saw that this place had high marks. After trekking a few blocks from our hotel, we found the place in the middle of the GLBT side of town. Rainbows everywhere. The place had a modern, industrial decor. Reminded me of Apple products. We ordered the Square Peg, Lake Erie fish, and Mac&Cheese. The food came out after about 15 minutes. Everything was delicious. The Square Peg is a bento box with a salad, meat, side, and dessert for $10 (lunch). The meat that day was a succulent sliced pork shoulder. The salad and sides weren't as remarkable but the fudge tort was crispy and not overbearingly sweet. The Mac&Cheese was baked and came with a small salad. Our children enjoyed it. I didn't taste the fish dish but it disappeared quickly under the fork of a very discriminating eater. Overall, the food was good and the experience was efficiently pleasant. I deducted a star only because of the small portion sizes. I didn't feel full after a Square Peg. The only thing I would suggest for travelers is to be aware of the community characteristics if with children. Our 4-yr old innocently asked the waiter (waitress?) out loud, "Are you a boy or a girl?" Thankfully, it didn't appear the question was heard.
