3.5 stars.
This has become my go to for grabbing a glass of wine and a bowl of soup after shopping on Bloor...love the space, especially in the winter...has a very cozy feel and the bar always seems to have a few folks sneaking an afternoon rendez vue. In the summer I frequented the street level patio a few times - blah! Great people watching, spotty service and rediculous bar menu cooked on a BBQ...wouldn't recommend it unless you have single friends that are looking for the scene and you are being a good wing person.
The french onion soup is good, but venture from the classics and you will find other gems...and service in friendly and slightly formal.
I am glad to see an owner (INK, same as Ultra) who takes soo much pride in the creation of the space...really amazing details and workmanship...like a piece of Paris in Toronto.
I will be back many times, as this spot is now on par with Le Select as one of my favourite French Bistro's in Toronto - give it a try!
