One of my friends has a membership to the TTS and I take FULL advantage of it. If you have a friend with one, or can manage a way to get an upgrade from Sidecar to the TTS - Do. It.
The last time we were there, it was exceptionally busy and bustling. This time however, we were the only group in there for the entire night (mind you, it being St. Patrick's Day probably had something to do with it.) Regardless, our bartender Robin was very knowledgeable and helpful and had great drink suggestions. We also ordered dinner from Sidecar and it was ah-mazing. I would definitely recommend using the prix fixe option. My steak was cooked to perfection and had a delicious crust.
We had a wide array of drinks ordered throughout the evening, but my favorite was (and still is) the Heart of Glass.
One of Toronto's best-kept secrets!
