  • After seeing the video on Facebook I shared it with my friend and we bookmarked this place to come down while at Fan Expo and that's just what happened. After a long day of walking and standing around at Fan Expo a cocktail and possibly a bite was needed before heading home to Buffalo. Looking online, possible Open Table my friend saw that there were no open reservations but possibly we could get a seat at the bar. After the typical drive through Toronto we made it to our destination. Conveniently parking is right next door and with a ton of Canadian change I gladly filled the meter. Walking in you'll see a non descript exterior, they do have a sign and some gold painted dolls in a case. Walking in you'll see a great wall of comic wall paper and their "store". My friend apparently didn't watch the video and when asked if we were ready to enter she started to walk outside opposed to hitting Cap's shield. As the door opened you are suddenly aware of the different ambiance. Guests are asked to NOT take pictures of the walls or decore however more than welcome to document food and drink. Walking past the Star Wars display near the entrance I loved the Millennium Falcon and Death Star againt a mirrored space and above the bar there is a Pac-Man scene which sadly wasn't lite. After glancing at food and drink menu we opted for only a few cocktails. To start I enjoyed the Malificent, a dark and stormy cocktail with activated charcoal. Served with a blossom and half a lime set a blaze with a brown sugar cube and absinthe. After blowing out her witchy magic I poured what's left into the drink to enjoy. Malificent, like her name sake can be deadly as you do not taste the alcohol inside. My second cocktail was a Johnny Blaze and although not a whisky drinker the curiosity of tobacco smoke infusion couldnt be passed up. I found Johnny smooth, balanced and the hint of tobacco really compliments the blend. All in all I appreciated the experience however am finding a lack of authenticity in the comic cover to this high end restaurant. The comic "shop" covering the restaurant is more small display than shop and isnt a space you'd hang out in to browse comics or collectables. Behind the wall, besides light decore and cocktails you wont find a heavy influence. This space seems more niche than serious comic enthusiast especially since they had no plans around Fan Expo. Overall our experience was great, the bartenders were a great team. Extremely friendly and courteous, they both were well trained in the mixology trade and personable enough that we didn't feel uncomfortable sitting there for about an hour.
