Its a real local pub, as it always was, not part of a chain, One of the few authentic pubs still around. The place was redone and kept its older 1950-60's local feel which is great. The food has improved wonderfully, it was always good, so its now up a few notches. Their burgers are even better than they were and way better than most pubs. I will be back probably next week. I highly recommend to all. Maxim

Food/Drink: My wife had a Roman Candle IPA, which she said was smooth and juicy; a perfect choice for a light, flavorful beer before the game. Service: The guy working there was super nice and even chatted a bit about the area, which made the visit feel welcoming and personal. Aesthetic: The brewery has small seating with three picnic tables and two high tables, giving it a quaint and intimate vibe. It's simple but charming, perfect for a quick stop.

Zui Bar is right around the corner from us, but we realized we'd never been! Time to explore…read more We entered and were greeted and seated promptly by a cheery staff member. The music was not loud, which made it easy for us to hold a conversation. The neon decor was stylish and gave off cyberpunk vibes. Service wasn't the most attentive, but it was efficient and alright for the price point. They have a scannable QR code at the table, so that's how you order. They offer a happy hour combo from 4-7pm, where you get 1 cold dish, 3 skewers, 1 main, and 1 cocktail for $25! I'd say it's a pretty good deal. The main fried rice had a lot of wok hei and the portion was quite good. We added a beer to this and the two of us were fairly full. Great option for a light meal with some drinks!

What a cozy spot in mid-town Toronto. There really is nothing like it in the area and I would say…read moreit is welcomed! There is a bar area and then a section with a couch and chairs to fill the rest of the bar. The cocktails were good, but not amazing. My old fashioned was way too sweet, but still a good mix. The food was good. Tried a few tacos and the chicken skewers. The prices are a litle high but expected in this area. All in all a great option in an area with little options.

"There's Always Money in the Banana Stand" Hefeweizen (a reference to Arrested Development) also stood out for me. Even though I'm usually not a big fan of mac-and-cheese-style dishes, I really enjoyed the Käsespätzle. The homemade spätzle was cooked perfectly, and the quality of the cheese and Mornay sauce really came through. The crispy fried onions made a big difference as well.

I have never been more disgusted and insulted. I went with two other people, walked in and sat down…read moreat a table that had not been cleaned yet. We waited 10 minutes until we had to get someone to come serve us. We simply asked for the glasses and table to be cleaned off. Waitress #1 gave us a dirty look, cleared off the glasses and walked away. She didn't come back. We had to flag down a second waitress to help serve us, table was still dirty. She asked us what we wanted for drinks with no menu to choose from, so we asked for a menu and for our table to be cleaned (again). She gave me a dirty look, scoffed, and walked away. A THIRD waitress came to clean the table and take our order (finally). She came to check on us once, and about an hour after we sat down we needed a refill with no waitress in sight. My boyfriend had to walk up to the bar to ask for a refill, and waitress #2, who was dressed as if she were in her pyjamas at home, didn't even acknowledge him. Eventually he ordered and sat back down. She placed our drinks at the other end of the bar. At this point, we were getting pissed off by the lack of respect and service here. He asked if she would bring it to the table and she said "you ordered it at the bar, you can pick it up at the bar". He said "I'd like to have it brought to my table and pay there or I can leave." She replied "walk out and I call the cops, you've been rude since you sat down." Since we sat down, waitresses didn't give us even a glimpse of eye contact for 10 minutes and we had to go and ASK for service. Apparently that's being rude. I have never had such shitty service ANYWHERE to this degree, to the point where my boyfriend and I were both angry to the point we were shaking. Do NOT go here unless you want to be treated like shit. The typical service you'd expect at a bar or restaurant was asked for here and wasn't given, and apparently by asking for service we were being "rude".

Very recently during my stay in Windsor for business I ate lunch here. The waitress was polite and…read moreattentive. I was told I needed to try the chicken delight which I did. Now I can say I know what a chicken delight is. The order cake with a side which I hit the cedar salad. The only thing I disliked the chicken delight has way too much creamy sauce as well as the salad The salad was soggy. I ended up picking up the chicken from the wrap. The chicken was cooked to perfection. Really busy when I was there for lunch.

El Charrua is what I imagine the "old boys" club in Uruguay is like. There are two TVs tuned to…read moreSouth American sports channels, a large Uruguay flag hanging on the wall, and a table of middle-aged men playing cards, who are always there without fail. I might feel out of place going there, but they're always so friendly and welcoming. The restaurant-bar itself is clean but plain, with bare tabletops, metal-backed chairs, and a large beer fridge sitting next to the bar. Basically, it's more about function over form. So the reason to come to El Charrua? The amazingly delicious steak, done Argentinean/Uruguayan style. It's cheap (around $16), the meat tastes really fresh, and they don't over season it: the steak is grilled with salt only (or so it tastes) and they just hand you the chimichurri sauce on the side. Plus they serve cuts of steak that you can't find in a typical North American restaurant, like entrana and asado. Although that being said, I still like their new york steak the best. Asides from the meat, the beer and wine is reasonably priced as well. If you want to experience some South America in Toronto, or you miss South America, or you want to make card-playing friends, or you want to watch some regional soccer played by clubs I've never even heard of in South America, you should check out El Charrua.

Especially the chicken and ribs special. Customer base is down to earth and it is easy to join conversations, which harkens back to earlier and simpler times. Staff generally are engaging and encourage good times. The Cat is a good place to get your drink on, but it can close early sometimes. Can't really think of a feature that makes this place unique or conversation worthy, but therein lies the appeal. A no BS blue collar pub that always has the game on the many TVs.

It is rarely busy in the morning so you really feel like you are having a private dining experience. They have quite a few unique menu options and very reasonable prices. Everything here is delicious, but especially their breakfast wrap that comes absolutely overflowing with filling. I recommend ordering it with salsa.

On Friday August 14, 2020, my girls & I went to Leng Keng to have a girls night!…read more Prior to our reservation: I stubbled upon this place while being on Instagram 'Toronto' stories and I saw a video story of this place, it was breath taking! Watching it, it reminded me of Shanghai and their clubs with all the lights, and electric music. Immediately I was excited! So I called them and made a reservation on Monday for Friday for 5 people. I got in contact with Alex, the manager, he set us up for Friday and answered any question I had. As this place is very new, there weren't many images or a website set up when I found them, and I was still unsure if they were open due to COVID. But they are open! I informed my girls of this place, they were thrilled and our group quickly turned from 5 to 7. Luckily, I called Leng Keng back asking if I could increase the size of my party & they were able to accommodate me! During our reservation: Coming to the place, the exterior isn't the most attractive setting. But as we looked past it, inside was just like the video that I had seen. It took me back to the time I was out with my expat friends in Shanghai club hopping. Covid protocols: Since we're still in a pandemic, Leng Keng had great protocols emplaced. As we showed our IDs to security, we signed in with our name and phone numbers. Once inside, there were masks & hand sanitizer available at the door. The tables were well distanced and people would stay within their allocated booths. The atmosphere of Leng Keng is extremely beautiful, nothing like I've ever seen in other Toronto bars/lounges/clubs. The lights are constantly moving & changing colours very beautifully as electric music plays in the background. We were greeted by very nice servers that showed us to our table. Once seated, we were able to take in the place more, & my friends were truly impressed by the place. For food we ordered Calamari and French Fries to share. For drinks we ordered Cosmos, Rum & Coke, Margaritas & a couple shots of Vodka. Everything tasted well, besides the Calamari that was slightly too fishy, the Margaritas didn't come with limes or salt on the rim of the cup. Other than that, this place was magnificent & we do believe Leng Keng has great potential in being the next trending spot in Toronto. We will be back soon! Thank you!
