I stumbled into this bar with a couple of friends on my first night in Toronto. The place itself, while on a large street, has a tucked away vibe-- the sign is so subdued you could walk right past it without noticing (if it wasn't for the "This is the place" sign, I wouldn't have believed anything was there). Inside, the atmosphere is laid-back and put-together. The little cushioned booth-tables are great for conversation, and the bar is pretty big. You can see where the living room used to be when it was a house.
The drinks are really good- I had a long island iced tea that was actually made by the bartender, as opposed to being made from a pre-mixed bottle, and was made well. Our server was attentive and the prices were reasonable.
If I ever come back, this is going to be one of the first places I'll come back to!
