Visited with a friend on a Wednesday night. We were actually looking to head somewhere else nearby, but since it was packed we had to find a new spot, not too far, and we had heard great things about Harbord Room so thought we'd give it a try.
It is small, and dark, but the atmosphere is cozy and relaxing. We went right in and sat at the bar. I'm not much of a wine drinker but had some great recommendations given to me that I'll be trying at home now too. The staff were friendly and helpful and the food (vegetable salad and oysters) did not disappoint! A little pricey, but easily worth a few good drinks and some amazing food... If we want to continue the night after that, we just move on. I can't wait to go back.
