Was there a couple of weeks ago. Absolutely gorgeous inside and the food was great. The only problem I had was the curly haired waitress rushing myself and my date out after we said we didn't want dessert. She kind of tossed the bill at me. I didn't see this behaviour from her with her other tables. Otherwise there was an older lady who I'm guessing is the Manager who was a gem that made us feel welcome. And the door man as well.

The place was great, the service was super fast and accommodating as we were running late for a show, thanks to the service here we were able to have a lovely dinner and still make it to our show despite running late.

Lovely little restaurant, full of charm, excellent food and friendly staff.
This was a great place to have dinner. I’m especially thankful to Anne for her outstanding service and help.

Very nice pre or post theatre spot. We shared the Baguette and the Brussel sprouts as our appetizers. Both were excellent. The Shirley Temple and spicy Margarita wee on point. The pasta was lovely and my companion had the chicken pot pie that featured actual large chunks of chicken. Both are highly recommended! We also ordered some sparkling water to share. There was a gentleman that opened the door that welcomed us and a lovely person inside that greeted us and took us to our table. They asked if we were going to the theatre. Lovely so far! There was another server with red hair that asked how we were doing during our meal, and the person that brought out our food was also friendly! I could only wish that our actual server (shoulder length curly brown hair) was 1/2 as pleasant as the others. They weren't overtly rude, but we both didn't feel welcomed by them. I'm out often with my 20 something daughter, and we both felt we had somehow offended them. The icing on the cake was the way the bill was slapped down in front of us. I didn't think we had under ordered or taken too much time at the table. Anyway, the food is good, good luck with the service.

Without a doubt, these are the best mussels in Toronto. The sauce pairs perfectly with the mussels, and when the pot is opened, the steam rises. The service at this restaurant is impeccable. If I could give more than five stars, I absolutely would.

The Senator is a timeless diner that keeps things classic—no fussy reinventions, just comfort food made with real quality. It’s the kind of place where lawyers, travelers, and suited regulars linger over a solid Americano or treat themselves to one of their sweet, decadent coffee creations. Bonus: there’s a full bar, too.
We’re smitten with the Senator Signature Sandwich: pillowy challah—an enriched egg bread—is griddled into golden French toast, then layered with ham, melted Swiss, and mayo. Served with a side of maple syrup for that perfect sweet-savory touch.
If you love a good club sandwich (and we definitely do), you’ll appreciate ths: tender roasted chicken breast—not deli meat—stacked with crisp bacon, fresh lettuce, and ripe tomato, mayo, on toasted challah. Simple and very satisfying.
So not forget to order a side of their home fries!
