Brazen is an esthetically nice place but not really an Irish Pub i my opinion!
Went for a few drinks with friends yesterday late afternoon and even though they (my friends) were already in with a table and available chairs for me I have to wait 45 mins to get it because they had hit capacity.
So lets talk a little about capacity while we are on the topic... this place has multiple patios and seating areas so as a result they make their customers pick a lineup and as Murphy's law would have it the one I picked didn't move. The Toronto FC had let out just before my arrival as as you can imagine the lineup was full of loud obnoxious drunk FC fans arguing with the bouncer and holding up the line! (thanks douchebags!)
Once in, the place was packed on the inside but pretty empty on the patio (go figures). We ordered the Calamari and the Mini Bison burgers both were very good. Our waitress was slow, didn't listen when you spoke to her and took 20 minutes to get us the bill!
All in all...good food bad service. Save yourself some greif and skip it if there is an FC game... unless of course you are part of the FC mob :-)
