| - Decided to venture a little bit outside my usual 'hood, because, as I always say, "At least if it sucks I can Yelp about it!"
Two Bite has a good concept behind it, but some of the execution is lacking. I will talk about the good points first. I though the service was good - when we first arrived it was early, only about 5:30,and we were the only two in the restaurant, but the only server didn't make us feel like he was going to hover over us and make chit-chat - he let us be, while still paying attention to us enough. I liked the ambiance of the place, and the bathrooms were really nice (this is always a big deal to me for some reason).
We ordered 5 sliders for $15. $3 a slider seems really steep to me for what you get. I think a $2 price point would make a lot more sense. We had all the meat sliders (not the tofu) - peameal, brisket, beef, pulled pork and fish. The fish was the best, by far. I thought their system of identifying which slider was which (colour coded toothpicks) was ingenious. We had a side of collard greens, which my dining companion said were "too tangy".
The real highlight for me, however, was the cocktails. We ended up trying four on the list, and they were all excellent -- really excellent, maybe some of the best cocktails I've had in Toronto in a while. For me, if I were going to recommend this place, I'd say go for some pre-dinner drinks and snacks, and then go somewhere else for your main meal.
