A small place with a luxurious atmosphere. It was late so there was only one server working both the bar and tables, but he was very pleasant and made sure we had everything we needed.

I was staying upstairs in the hotel and decided to eat dinner here out of convenience. I was really impressed. The service was excellent and the food was tasty. It’s a smaller, more intimate setting.

The portions were small, too salty and didn't taste great. the dessert was poorly executed. Our server was nice and attentive though.

Terrible experience. Do not eat here. They were out of four items on the menu, my sister, who is gluten-free, ended up just having fries. Our steaks were over cooked. One person in our party did not get their meal until every one had finished, at least 20 minutes after the rest of us. They forgot one of our drink orders. They apologized and comped 50% of our meal but it took an hour and 45 min for us to eat and we only ordered drinks and entrees.

Good chicken schnitzel but the spatzle was very odd. Service was warm and friendly and excellent. Nice hotel bar.

We were early but they kindly let us sit until they were open. Service was very good and friendly. Menu was clear and interesting. We all had the Chicken Schnitzel which was really good but the spaetzle noodles were not anything like what you have in Europe. Nice quiet place at 4pm. don't think it stays that way as the evening will start around 7-8pm.

Convenient hotel lounge at Pantages and excellent location (theatre, mall, Yonge). On this night, understaffed for the pre-theatre/happy hour crowd. Made more challenging by a unruly patron that caused a scene and, because of understaffed, wasn't managed well.

Very small restaurant but in an ideal location. Very few tables inside the Pantages Hotel which was not understood at booking. 1 bartender and 1 server. Pleasant server but the food arrived cold.

Disappointing visit. Food quality fair to poor. Great fries, not great fish and chips, cool pasta, and small portions. Service was nice, though.

The restaurant was definitely under staffed on our visit Jan 1/24. One waiter trying to to run the restaurant is just not feasible, no matter how good they are. Long wait time to take order, had to remind waiter what we wanted, food came out cold and once food was served, no on came by to ask if the food was okay. Not a good way to commence the new year. For a restaurant with pricey entrees, one could afford to have more staff on!!

I don't believe a "chicken sandwich" can be so disgusting, like the one they served me on December 30th, 2023. I was staying at the hotel with a friend and ordered 2 of those "culinary delights" to go (they cannot even deliver it to the room, but OK, maybe it is the hotel's fault...). What you get is 2 layers of almost burnt breading between 2 pieces of round bun. No sauce, no ketchup for your fries, just a thin, almost invisible trace of some plastic-like substance, which is supposed to remind you of cheese. I challenge you to find any traces of chicken in that sandwich! Well, I finally found 2 paper thin slices lost in that thick breading. The price? - $25 plus tax! How can a manager of this place and the cook even have a job in 2023!?

Took my Fiancée out for their winterliciois. I’m vegan and they had an interesting vegan menu. I was especially looking forward to the lemon merengue as it is my fave dessert hard to find vegan and wasn’t made from coconut :) First was a mushroom medley. It was tasty but lacked in the mushrooms. Second was mainly just a big plate of veggies put together in a fancy way. I was expecting something very different plus I don’t like yellow peppers and it had soooo many. I really liked the tomato based sauce that was in there I would have just eaten that with bread 😂. My partner enjoyed their dead animal 😂(darn vegan at it again) And to finish THAT MERENGUE WAS AMAZING like I would have had 3 courses of that. So happy to hear they will be keeping it on the menu. Will be back for that. Staff was friendly and attentive. The lighting was much too bright for the atmosphere and the time of night. Would have made it more romantic/fancy if they were dimmed down A LOT more (I don’t even like too dark when I’m eating but too bright can totally ruin the vibe) All around lovely experience.
