This place sets a standard for sports focused restaurants. In fact this establishment focuses so well on food quality and service standards that the sports events and game focus to me, are simply an added bonus. The food was served fresh and warm with no lack of attention to detail. From the Ahi tuna stack, the fresh and cold beverages, to the crispy wings and unique hand crafted stone oven pizzas. Flawless. The pulled braised pork za was immaculate. Ingredients tasted delicious. The ahi tuna stack was fresh, crisp, light and finely served. They aren't lying when you're told you eat with your eyes first. Plating choices etc., No lack of visual appetite here.
The cocktails are served fair, as in you can taste the alcohol content which in terms means that your paying for what you get. No shortages. Recommend the Laker Maker or the Jurassic Juice.
The service is also top tier. Now to be fair, I did show up while it was quiet but having said, its been nothing but attentive, courteous and fully representative. The individual serving me today was Jade and her recommendations hit every mark. Please note the Kudos to Jade and thank your chef/cooks for me.
The atmosphere, as mentioned, was quiet for me which was nice but it has the potential of being a very fun environment during live events or big games. I could see this place being nothing short but perfect for the group looking to get together over an important series. TV volumes were not obnoxious at all, being able to hold a conversation.
Ordering a single order of wings and the pizza (as a classic combo), I would recommend focusing on the wings first in order to have them at optimal temp and crispness. I will add, prices were a tiny bit steep but you're in the GTA, I wouldnt shy away from saying that this place fits the bill.
I highly recommend this establishment. Either solo, with friend/family or even for work related meals. When ever I come back I will definitely be here again. Consistency is key, so I gotta keep yous honest with another visit soon.

Thank you for everything, truly enjoyed my time having a solo meal at your establishment.

Nice atmosphere, but the music is too loud — it’s impossible to have a conversation with the person you came with.

This place is electrifying! A lot of cool NBA related items spread around the restaurant and decor. Good menu options for burgers, flat bread pizzas and etc. tvs with all the games on! Food was good, waitresses were prompt and friendly. Great place for the NBA to catch a game, or watch before heading out to a raptors game.

Truly was not the best experience. Walked it with an empty can ... not to discard on the street and because I did. Was denied service. After being ignored by the waitress for 10 mins

I explained why I had the can and told her they can rewind the footage at the front door to see I was looking for the trash yet she and the manager we adamant of no service.

Sad maybe that's why the establishment is always empty.

Overpriced food! Regular bar food, nothing that special.

Got pear and prosciutto pizza - the toppings weren’t evenly put on the pizza, and the cook was not generous with the toppings. Though the hand pulled dough was amazing.

Wings were good, would recommend honey garlic. Would not recommend Jamaican jerk.

Stay away from cocktails here, they are pre-batched and are just overpriced juice.

The service was pretty bad, our server didn’t help us much, we had to wave her down every time we needed something and she didn’t see to care too much.
Even when we arrived for our reservation, the hostess seemed like it was difficult to seat us.
Overall, no personal touch with service.
If they were more customer-first, this place would be so much better.

Good ambiance though. Nice new restaurant to watch the game

Guinness was poured terribly twice and wings are small and over priced.

Better off going to chucks for the same atmosphere.

This location is in my opinion better than Real Sports Bar and Grill. It’s not as busy, has great seating both inside and outside, is clean, quiet, and has a great atmosphere. It’s a great place to watch the game, and the food is good. I had the burgers and wings, and they were a good portion at a reasonable price. This place is definitely a place to go before going to a game at the ACC. I’ll definitely be back in the summertime.
