  • This was the first stop on my tour of Winterlicious. I had a little trouble finding the restaurant as it was at night and like most places in Toronto not very well lit. Regardless, we did find it and managed to get a parking spot close to the restaurant right on Queen W (which sometimes a tricky thing to do). I was coming from out of town and had a reservation made. Due to traffic and the trouble finding the place needless to say I was a bit late. When we walked in I immediately liked the atmosphere. We were greeted and seated quickly. As much as I enjoyed the atmosphere the seating could use an overhaul. We were seated right beside two other diners and the seating is so close together we felt like we were unable to have a normal conversation. We had to whisper so the other diners did not hear what we were talking about and we had to whisper so we wouldn't annoy them. The other diners actually got quiet as well no sooner than we were seated. To say the least this put a damper on the conversation for the night. I had asked if we could move tables to a window seat further down but was told no as the table was reserved. That table remained empty throughout the night until we were leaving and then someone came to occupy it. So wasn't really impressed with that. Regardless, the service was exceptional. Once we settled into our table our waitress immediately came and took our drink orders and gave us the menus. We got both the Winterlicious menu and their regular menu (which I think their regular menu is cool as it is on an old vinyl record). We had ordered the Mandarin Spinach Salad, Southern Fried Chicken & Waffles and the Almond Chocolate Kisses. Our food came quickly and was absolutely delicious. The sauces that came with the fried chicken were so good (especially the spicy one) and the waffles were light and fluffy. I was a little disappointed with dessert as I expected something different. (I was expecting by the description more of a cake like dessert). The dessert was a slightly larger than normal cookie with a fudge like consistency. But the fried chicken oh boy! Delicious! The service was fast, friendly and professional. I was extremely impressed with the service I received. The bathroom is in the basement and was extremely cold. I felt like I was going to the washroom outside lol. A nice warm restaurant upstairs and a freezing cold basement bathroom. I would suggest that they make sure they heat the basement as well and install some extra lighting as it was quite dark down there as well. The stairs are steep and not well lit either. *Warning* When we received our bill and were about to pay my friend noticed that the had already included gratuity in our bill. If she had not noticed that we would have double tipped them. I understand that with Winterlicious some restaurants do include gratuity but I wish they would have told us. I almost felt like it was a sneaky move to get more money. So other than the couple of bumps experienced at the restaurant we did enjoy our experience and the food was excellent.
