I've been to this restaurant before (for dinner) and decided to go for brunch with friends. It's located on Danforth, close to Broadway station so easily accessible by TTC and plenty of parking nearby.
This place from the outside looks small but it's long and narrow inside and can accommodate a lot of people surprisingly- even 2nd floor seating that could be used for private events. The inside has that luxe feeling with beautiful chandeliers and interpretive art that people love to look at but no one really gets.
The brunch menu is decent in selection with the normal brunch menu with a twist. The prices are fairly reasonable as well. I had the grilled cheese with 3 cheeses and tomato chutney and a side salad. My friend had the eggs benny florentine and my other friend had the reuben. The reuben and the eggs were pretty good but the grilled cheese was just not that delicious cheesiness that i wanted. The cheeses they used didn't really go together unfortunately- one overpowered the taste of everything. The side salad came drenched in dressing-I could barely finish it b/c the dressing was super tart.
The service was lacklustre to say the least. Everyone was nice and polite but it took forever and a day to get someone to take our order or pay the bill. We had to ask someone to get our server. It probably added an extra 20-25 min onto our brunch of just waiting. And it wasn't even that busy yet.
No rush to go back but I have heard there is an outdoor patio that is nice so maybe in the summer I will try again
