One time, we came during Sunday brunch and ordered the following: 1. Ale Battered Cod & Chips with Mushy Peas & Tartare Sauce. 2. The Q&B Full English Breakfast. 3. Avocado Toast with Fried Haloumi & Sunny Eggs. As expected with upscale food, their food was quite good. The service was good. There is a main dining room, a smaller one at the front windows, and a small room with a single long table. There is also a full bar. Upstairs, there is a lounge with a big screen TV and a bar for hosting sports game events. There is a very nice outdoor patio during warmer weather. There is free WiFi. The restaurant is not wheelchair accessible since it is in a Victorian house. There are separate male/female washrooms upstairs. There is paid neighbourhood street parking. Review 2025-267

Hair of the Dog embodies a particular philosophy of relaxed conviviality that, while not achieving…read morethe refined precision of haute cuisine, merits recognition as a competent articulation of casual hospitality and approachable gastronomy. The establishment's most remarkable feature resides in its architectural flexibility--multiple dimensional spaces accommodate diverse clientele from intimate dining pairs to festive larger assemblies. This pragmatic responsiveness to varying social needs demonstrates genuine understanding of the hospitality spectrum. Their cocktail program demonstrates fundamental competency: preparations that prioritize balance and classical technique over unnecessary elaboration. The spirit-forward compositions achieve respectable equilibrium, suggesting kitchen staff with grounding in mixological fundamentals. The kitchen's approach to food preparation emphasizes comfort and straightforward execution rather than technical virtuosity. Whilst this represents philosophical honesty, one occasionally detects opportunities for greater precision in temperature control and plating presentation. Service staff demonstrate genuine warmth and attentiveness, creating atmosphere conducive to extended social engagement. The ability to make patrons feel genuinely welcome constitutes underrated gastronomic skill. Hair of the Dog succeeds principally as a social destination rather than a culinary exemplar. It represents honest, unpretentious hospitality that fills genuine niche in Toronto's entertainment landscape. For those seeking spirited conviviality combined with serviceable cuisine, this establishment merits serious consideration.

The restaurant has a lively and charming atmosphere that's hard to leave behind ‍ One dish in particular that stands out is the foie gras.

The restaurant is bare bones, but has a nice bench seating that spans the length of the seating area, a garage door opening to the street, and a small bar area near the kitchen. There is local art on one side of the wall and graffiti style decor on the opposite wall and washroom (which you can pickup one of the provided pens and tagged it yourself). The cajun fries are soft potato wedges coated in chili flakes and paprika. It comes with what looks like the burger sauce as dip and is tangy and finger licking good. Eating at Heartbreak is a messy affair. The portions are great for the price, the chicken is hot and fresh, piled high with coleslaw and sweet pickles on a brioche bun. The owner seems to be the soul (pin intended) cook, served us, did cash, and took care of the guests. Overall, the chicken was crispy, lots of meat, will be back to try their mac and cheese. Great easy bite when visiting Kensington. P.S. if you like super surreal promo videos (their old location) hit up @theheartbreakchef on Insta

Probably my favourite chicken sandwich place in Toronto. And to top things off the portions are massive. Well worth the cost considering how pricey things are these days. We ordered the Cajun fries this time and it was perfectly cooked. Super fluffy and soft in the middle and crispy on the outside with a strong Cajun kick. The owner is right there working his heart out and you can tell it. They moved to Kensington market from their old location on Bloor and honestly I think they fit the Kensington community vibes perfectly. It scream locally made with a lot of heart. Super friendly, good food, but just be prepared to get your hands a bit saucy.

Cozy atmosphere and the service was kind, making us feel relaxed. Maybe too relaxed that we ordered dessert even after being stuffed already. Starting with the mvp of the meal, the dessert - Sticky Toffee Pudding, did not disappoint. In fact, I'm going to go out on a limb and say it was the best I've had. Tender snd delicate cake, ample syrup and the twist was some sort of sour tamarind or cherry candy on top. Perfect! The grilled mackerel was also absolutely divine. Really well prepared and meaty. The mussel dish was incredible too. The broth was gingery, garlicky and coconuty and very comforting to have on a cool night! I wish they had some sort of dry bread to go with it. However, the only bread option, focaccia was ordered. The focaccia was lovely on its own! Not an ideal pairing with the mussels but not bad either. I would absolutely revisit!
