“Went for Winterlicious lunch. Great food, attentive service. Clean, light filled space on a freezung cold day. Had momos for appetizer, salmon on a bed of tomato lentils for the main course, and creme brulee for dessert. Hot chocolate with whipped cream was perfect for a cold day. I recommend this place, and will go again.“

“Amazing burger! It was way better than I expected“

“A good friend from Montreal, was in Toronto today, and an acquaintance who we haven't seen for some time, and Bill and I met for a late lunch at the 'House on Parliament', (454 Parliament St. - west side of the St., south of Carlton St.). Someone recommended to us and it was our first visit there. The staff were friendly and attentive, the atmosphere was great, the food (great menu) was delicious, and the prices were fair! I had the 'Vodka cured smoked salmon' with fresh basil cream cheese, capers, cucumber, red onion confit and crostini. Very fresh and very tasty. The others also really enjoyed their meal too. If you're ever in the vicinity, I would highly recommend going there. Check out their page on fb to see some great pics of the food they serve. We will definitely go back there...“

“Our family enjoyed the Sunday roast beef dinner to celebrate Easter yesterday.“

“Looking for a new, favourite haunt? We highly recommend the Prohibition Social House. Located in the Riverside Neighbourhood on Queen Street just across the bridge from the Distillery District and known as the small town in a big city. The ambiance is subdued with low lighting and soft music, creating an inviting, friendly and intimate atmosphere. We dined 2 evenings while visiting nearby family. The menu is creative, diverse and complete, which would satisfy tastes from the basic to the more discriminating palates. Beer and wine selections were impressive and very reasonably priced, especially during their 2 different happy hours. Our servers were Victoria and Talia, both of whom were courteous, friendly, personable, highly engaging and extremely professional. We were also warmly welcomed by management staff. Customer service was outstanding. These qualities and the food made us return customers. On the first evening, we thoroughly enjoyed battered mushrooms, tuna tartare, cob salad and the famous Prohibition burger. The mushrooms were not the standard button variety, but specialty oyster mushrooms coated in a light breading, quick fried and served over greens with a very flavourful aioli sauce. The elegant bluefin tuna tartare was fresh, succulent and professionally presented. The cob salad was fairly standard, but plentiful. The meal highlight was the burger. The Prohibition Social House grinds their own beef, meaning that you can order your burger cooked from rare to well done. I ordered mine medium rare. Complete with fries it was cooked to perfection and absolutely delicious, served on a brioche bun with fixings on the side so that you can tailor your burger to preference. All food (other than the salad) was piping hot. The burger was so delicious, I also ordered it on the second evening. No disappointment here… once again, it was consistently impeccable. During our second visit, we also ordered the battered calamari. Again, lightly breaded served over greens with another very flavourful aioli sauce and cooked to a delicate exactness. We also ordered the mushroom ravioli, which was served in a delectable creamy, bechamel sauce. Portions were perfect. All in all… an awesome and impressive dining experience. Well done folks and thank you! We will be back. Quoting a onetime TV show… “You gotta’ eat here!” Phil and Wendy H. (London, Ontario)“

“Excellent dinner and solid atmosphere. We really enjoyed this meal. The salad I had was really flavorful. The Rabbit Hole Crumpet was top-notch and I really enjoyed the Saturday Roast dinner. I tried some of the low alcohol cocktails and they were great accompaniments to the meal.“

“Girls’ night (party of three)

We were starving, which explains why I completely forgot to take photos of our first two plates. This is 100% a sharing-plates place, and we leaned all the way in.

What we ordered:
• Aged Manchego with honeycomb - salty, sweet, gone immediately
• Tomato Bread “Royale” - so good we had to order it twice
• Grilled Savoy Cabbage with miso glaze & scallion chili crunch – interesting cooked salad? But there were bites that were too spicy for my (low spice tolerance),
• Steak Tartare - really yummy, great duck fat and toast that accompanies it (could go for another slice of a bread when sharing though)
• Ricotta Gnocchi - came HOT to the table, different texture than expected for gnocchi
• Double-layer chocolate cake - deeply chocolatey, decadent, and non-negotiable (you gotta try it - I would come back just for it)

We were stuffed after the 7 plates between 3 of us, it was $55 per person pre-tip.

I enjoyed the music, it wasn't too loud that we had to yell our life stories across the table. Service was super attentive without hovering. The only real downside? It is SO dark inside. Very on theme with the bar’s name, but definitely a “slow down, feel with your feet, and squint to find your friends” situation.

Would come again.“

“Amazing restaurant! As someone who loves seafood pasta, this was one of the best dishes I’ve ever had. Everything was cooked perfectly—nothing was overdone. The tiramisu was also delicious.

The staff, service, and atmosphere were all excellent.

I’m already looking forward to coming back!“
