When I was told The Senator is the oldest restaurant in Toronto I wasn't surprised.
IN A GOOD WAY. I have been going there for years and it is constantly delicious, no wonder they have been going for so long.
I usually go for breakfast and get the house cured lox and bagel platter and COFFEE!! They switched over to Dark City Roast about a year ago and I can't think of getting my cup of Joe anywhere else. I was recently told they added a cocktail program and new dinner menu. I was a bit skeptical about going for dinner as I usually think of the place as an all-day breakfast diner. Being in my late 20's I usually head to the west end for drinks. I was pleasantly surprised with how amazing the cocktails and food were and dinner. Nothing you would expect from a diner - fresh farm-to-table food and unique cocktails! Really great. It's really beautiful to see an unpretentious restaurant doing it right and not so in your face about it (found out they always have served local, seasonal, fresh food). They know whats up and I seriously suggest this spot to dine at! Where else can you go for great breakfast - lunch - dinner?
