We came here after sushi on bloor took an hour wait and snakes and lattes didn't have any seats and were we lucky to find a place like this. The service was excellent, the ambiance was great and the overall environment of the place was great.
First thing's first is that this is NOT the best dinner place at all. We came here for dinner, and we ordered the 8 ounce burger, the eggplant pizza, and bruschetta. The burger I had was nice and juicy and came with a salad and fries ( which weren't crispy! grrr) but had a nice sort of homemade garlicy mayo. The bruschetta was quite nice albeit a bit standard and the pizza had a soft crust but tons of eggplant and really cheesy. Again, standard if not a bit below average bar food.
However, the best part of this place is how it looks and feels. The server we had was really nice and very helpful helping us decide which martinis to get and which shots to take, and I must say there is a HUGE selection of drinks. The instant you walk into this place you will notice the gigantic wall of alcohol they have. They even have Jager on tap (how awesome is that?). The martinis are quite pricey at $8.5 but there is such a wide selection of them it is insane. The lighting of the place is a bit dark but it is quite fitting for a bar sort of lounge.
This place is a very good example of a lounge-bar sort of restaurant. It isn't a very good place to eat but the food is very cheap (under $10) which explains the average food quality. However, it is not about the food it is about the drinks and the environment which this place absolutely nails. Definitely check this place out with friends if you are looking for a place to hang back, drink and relax. Think of it like a lounge/cafe with bar food and tons of alcohol without the bar-like atmosphere.
