| - GREAT PLACE TO WATCH THE GAME!
Real Sports was rated by ESPN as the best sports bar in North America, I have not been to every sports bar in North America so I cannot vouch for that but I can say it is probably the best sports bar I have been to. The food itself is not extraordinary; on the two occasions I have been here I have not been blown away by the food. I have tried the pulled pork nachos which were okay, pulled pork was too sweet, and the portion was quite generous. On my latest visit I had the taco salad which was lettuce, green onion, guacamole, pico di gallo and sour cream in a hard tortilla shell. This salad was ok, not enough veggies in it, I would have liked something more than just lettuce; however the guacamole in it was very creamy and quite delicious. I have seen their wings and they look amazing, I will give those a shot next time. Overall the food merits 3 stars.
The reason this place is so highly thought of is the experience. The place itself is massive, has a bar area and a seating area and even has lazy boy chairs on the second level for those who want to kick back and relax. No matter where you sit in this bar you will be in view of a TV, including the giant TV that is about the size of a football field. Hell there is even TV's all over the washrooms so you don't have to miss a single crucial second of the game. This place is always buzzing and the crowd is always into the game making it the next best thing to the arena experience. In terms of beer this place does have many taps but most of them are mainstream beers, nothing too adventurous. In terms of the viewing experience this place definitely gets 5 stars, you can't go wrong watching the big game here just be sure to call ahead for a reservation (especially for leaf games) as they are constantly jammed.
