My first trip out into the city and after getting a lay of the land we decided to have a late lunch at Czehoski's. I loved the space. Even though the upstairs wasn't open when we arrived, sitting in the booths in the bar area gave us a great vantage to take in all the nuances this ex-butcher shop had to offer. The staff was so cordial, from being seated to drink order to dining service and even engaging us prior to our departure.
The food was wonderful - I so wanted to order Poutine, but opted for the veggie cheeseburger and fries. The burger had great flavor and the texture was creamier than I anticipated. The roll unfortunately was a bit dry and overwhelming to the texture and size of the burger. The fries were the star I have to say - perfect in size, the right balance of crispy and softness, and the saltiness was spot on. My BFF ordered the fish n' chips and said it was outstanding. From my view the more than generous portion of lightly battered fish looked crazy good.
After we were stuffed, and had a couple of drinks to wash down our great meal we did take a peek at the upstairs space - an extra bar, a dining space with a fireplace, it would be a great place to eat when I come in for my next visit....and there will be a NEXT visit here!
