"Eating like I'm seated at Swish, Sotto and Joso's" - 5am in Toronto
I'm not ashamed to say that this place was a recommendation from a Drake song (the guy has good taste in food). In addition to the name drop, Yelp had great things to say about this place so it seemed like a no brainer.
One of the most unique restaurants I've been to from a decor standpoint. The walls are lined with artwork displaying naked women and statues. Certainly makes for great conversation amongst the guest.
Food wise, I had an order of the seafood risotto. Truly a delicious dish, but I can honestly say that I've had better. I can't put my finger on exactly could have been better, but it was the difference between perfect and delicious. That being said, this dish was cooked very well and had all the staples of a good seafood risotto dish.
The crowd is trendy and well dressed. Definitely a great place for a date or a group dinner. One of the most fascinated parts of the dining experience is the fish presentation made by the waitress. They bring out all the fish on a platter and explain the taste and texture of each one in great detail. After your mouth is done watering, you'll undoubtedly order one of them. Side Note: Highly recommend dining outside if it's nice out.
Overall great experience here. Thanks Drake!
