| - Note, I have only been here for the nightclub, not the restaurant.
This place has a lot of potential. The upstairs is well decorated, and has a sound system (Alpha Dynacord) that packs quite a punch. The sound system does need some tweaking, but with a little work, this could be the best sounding night club in Toronto.
The downstairs is also very well decorated (with the huge exception of the washrooms - more on that later), with great lighting. It looks great and inviting from College Street. I also like the idea of two large rooms, making a night more interesting with 2 different kinds of music playing on each floor (this has worked well the couple of times I've been there so far).
I'm not sure what happened with the bathroom situation on the bottom floor (maybe the ran out of money during the renos?), but wow are the downstairs men's washrooms bad. They were kept quite clean, but they kind of reminded me of what a bathroom would look like in a run-down train station on the Rust Belt. Considering how nice the rest of the place looks, these bathrooms should be redone ASAP!
The acts they've booked here since their opening (Robert Hood, LE1F, Mark Farina, Josh Wink, Art Department, etc) are A+. There aren't many other night clubs that have consistent booking quality like this place (although they haven't been open for that long).
The draught beer selection is quite good for a nightclub (was surprised to see Sapporo).
I also was impressed with how friendly (and quite frankly, how attractive) the staff at this place was.
For any lovers of quality music, and anyone who needs to lose their minds and dance the night away, Moskito is the club for you.
In my opinion, this is the best night club that's opened in Toronto in recent memory.
