“Great hang, hidden in the heart of Toronto. Excellent for first dates, or to celebrate. Lots of great selections from knowledgable staff“

“Happy staff, fun environment! New fav drink’”Home Sweet Home”. Smooth citrus type drink...yumm :)“

“This place definitely lives up to it's prices. The fondue recommendation was certainly much appreciated, and I haven't had one this amazing since forever. And the Slovenian sausage was next level.

One minor thing I'd mention though and I'm not sure if it's intentional but the curry we got with the sausages wasn't warm.

Nonetheless, if you haven't come here yet, you should. It's truly a blessed time.“

“Love this place good beer and good service“

“Most delicious meal we've had in 4 days of staying in Libery Village. The staff is over-the-top amazing. Ethan the bartender is an absolute master of his craft! Will definitely be back“

“Went before a show at Massey Hall. Place was full with after work crowd and a little noisy. Our food was delicious. We had Spanish Prawn a”Rice bowl and our server was very friendly and attentive. We had a great time and will certainly be back.“

“The food was fantastic and the service was great. I did feel the prices were a little high considering the décor and overall setting, as it's not really a fine-dining atmosphere. That said, the most important part—the food and service—were excellent.“

“Came here on a Tuesday to celebrate my boyfriends 38th birthday. We had never been, and looked here on OpenTable for some restaurants we hadn't tried. Parquet came up and I'm so glad it did! Tucked away on the corner of Robert and harbour, this restaurant offers delicious eats, and very yummy cocktails to go with. We had, the bread with butternut squash, and some oysters so start. Both were very good, well presented. Perfect way to start. We then got the leek croquettes, and the steak tar tar. Oh my, absolutely outstanding. We were already so excited with what we got we knew the main would not disappoint. We got the short rib, accompanied but the fingerling smashed potatoes. One of the best courses I've had. The meat was fall off the bone tender, and the potatoes were light fluffy, but also so delicious. Dessert we did the panacotta, and the lemon tart which were a perfect way to finish off the meal. The service was great, our server was super attentive, and knowledgeable. He definitely elevated the night for us. We were the last table that left, but didn't feel rushed or pushed out. Will definitely be returning in the future!“

“I get emotional thinking about how much I love the Little Jerry. In a world of increasingly private equity backed restaurant concepts and music venues closing, the Little Jerry keeps the soul of music and hospitality alive in Toronto.
Jodie & the team make you feel like family anytime you walk in.
Whether it's for a cheeky weeknight happy hour, delicious dinner, or a late night dance - the LJ has become my home away from home in Toronto.
The best sound, the best wines, the best music, the best hosts and staff, and the best feeling.
Drop in sometime and it might become your regular hangout too! ❤️“

“Had such a great experience at Bar Banane last night. The vibe was warm and intimate without feeling pretentious. Perfect for a relaxed night out.

We ordered the smoked sturgeon rillettes, which were outstanding and perfectly balanced. Easily a standout dish.

For drinks, we tried the Berry Dangerous and Eleventh Hour, and both were fantastic.

Great atmosphere, great food, and even better drinks.“

“Super cozy and chill spot for drinks and small bites with friends! The atmosphere is great and the server and owner were so kind. It was a great stop after dinner at a nearby restaurant, giving a chance for the night to continue with more drinks and food. Will definitely be back again to try some of the other drinks (super extensive cocktail menu) and food (lots of interesting korean fusion options!)“

“Great spot for creative cocktails.“

“Been going to The Horn for many, many years. We've gotten to know all the staff who are absolutely amazing. It's one of our regular spots in the neighbourhood to have a delish local lager (or three, who are we kidding, right Dave?!) a munchie and chill on one of the best backyard patios in the city. There's always a game on and the vibe on the inside is laid back and comfy. Kristin and the crew are all gems! 5/5!“

“Friendly staff with good customer service! The grub is fresh and so delicious🙂Keep coming back……“

“It's a cozy little bar with lots of live music by great musicians! The staff are great and there's a good beer and drinks selection.“

“Love this place! Creative tacos!“

“What else to say besides all about this place is perfect. Service, attitude, booze and the famous Grilled Cheese! Miss the place so much!“

“Great food, good service, great recommendations“

“One of my faves in the city“

“I had such a a good time. We hosted my uncle memorial here. J is awesome. Such a dynamo of good vibes! I definitely recommend this spot. The food was on point. The drinks kept coming. The laughter was endless. The people are friendly. I met a new friend from Morocco.“

“Great spot for good music ( old school hip hop / r&b ) and an overall dope vibe. In the summer, their outdoor patio really comes alive with everything from comedy shows and open mic nights to pop-up shops. They’re also very responsive and accommodating if you’re looking to host a private event. The pastry selection is nice for anyone with a sweet tooth, and the window seating is perfect for a little people-watching. Very cool coffee shop concept !“

“Great hang, hidden in the heart of Toronto. Excellent for first dates, or to celebrate. Lots of great selections from knowledgable staff“

“it's so good. But it's borderline cruel that the server only gives you one napkin .These are messy af.“

“Great beer selection and a fantastic breakfast sandwich!“

“We had a wonderful experience at Restaurant Blue Bovine. A special thank you to Erin, Mariam, Maya, our waiters, for their attentive, professional, and friendly service, they truly made us feel welcomed and well taken care of throughout the evening. We would also like to thank Antonina, the hostess, whose warm greeting and kindness set the perfect tone from the moment we arrived. Exceptional service like this makes all the difference. We look forward to coming back again soon! Lazaro“

“Had the best time checking out Duke’s Refresher Riverside. So excited they e opened up a location here. We look forward to many more visits!“

“Casual, friendly, good service.“

“I appreciate that they let us try some beer samples before we committed to a choice. Our server was good.
Also, when we went, all the cues were very straight and the tables were well maintained.
I haven't been out to shoot pool in Toronto lately, so I felt the price was a bit high, but maybe that is the standard. It was a Monday, so I would have like a small price reduction.“

“Always a fun time, REALLY cool design to the place, and a nice selection of non-alcoholic drinks if you're the driver. The skewers are a great option weather you're just a little snack, or you wanna go nuts!

Staff are very nice.“

“good food, good service, and even better views!“

“Great Tuesday night tunes and much fun“

“I have been coming here for a little over a year now and the food has never disappointed me! Great portion sizing, always fresh and tasty. The food is always made to order and the chicken pieces are pretty big. When I had an issue with my order, they worked fast to correct it and provided excellent customer service. Highly recommend if you’re in the area“

“Only stayed in Toronto for 2 nights and spent both of them here. Good service, good food, great beer and a very friendly owner who went out of his way to talk to us“

“Night Mananger was on point with helping us and serving us !!“
