    Avocado toast
    Maggie G.

    Brunch at Ruby Soho was mostly fun and delicious but slightly slow. Came here for a birthday brunch with a group of 14 girls and overall had a great experience! The food was beautifully plated and full of flavor, with a few standout dishes. The Classic Breakfast was simple and delicious the raspberry jam that came with the toast was amazing. Only thing that lacked was the corn bread it was dense and dry. Pork Belly Benny was rich and flavourful the pork belly was almost candy like sweet, crunch and fatty. The only letdown was the Avocado Toast, It felt a bit bland and got lost under the sprouts. Our waitress was friendly and did her best due to short staffing but overall it was still very slow service.

    Lemon drop martini & Lychee martini
    Shaguna W.

    Great time here! Had drinks and apps to start the night. Drinks were perfect. Lemon drop martini was perfect sweet/tart and lychee martini tasted like fresh fruit. The poutine was so delish and the crispy rice with salmon was good (rice fantastic but salmon mouse on top was only ok) Service was fast and excellent with our server checking on us as needed. Will definitely return.

    Needed a spot to relax after an intense afternoon. There's a cozy covered patio for a cold, but sunny day. Great place to unwind or even finish up the work day. I got to meet a couple of sis and get some puppy love (where was on a work call) before settling in with the happy hour menu (starts at 3pm!). Unpretentious Fresh food, good pricing, super friendly staff.

    Went here for our second stop of the evening after our company Christmas party. They were able to accommodate our large group. The server was doing a hell of a job keeping up with everyone's orders. I really enjoyed the truffle fries. The sweet potato fries were only ok in comparison. They had a wide variety of drinks and cocktails available. I would definitely come back with friends!

    Inside fun vibes

    I love the aesthetic of the place. The skeeball and the church window and the plants waterfalling from the skylight. So fun. We went for happy hour. They have a great collection of options that are perfect for sharing. We had the Shishido nachos which had so much on them. We have the Kelsey Caesar salad that had pine nut so we felt very fancy and we had the coconut shrimp Our server was so good at checking in on us to make sure if we needed anything else and make sure everything was tasting good. It's a great spot for a happy hour. They have lots of cocktails as well for happy hour, but we didn't try any this time

    9/10 truffle parm fries. Portland mule was yummy. Great attentive service. Pretty loud environment but not as to the point of yelling. Definitely understand why this is such an iconic spot! Excited to return for happy hour.

    Vibe, ambiance, staff, food, and service was great. Went with the wagyu burger and it was delicious. The vibe of the patio was really cool and swank. The drinks were good as well. Toronto is an amazing city, and you'll want to stop here.

    I met a friend here hoping to try their dinner menu but we got there to early so we opted for the brunch menu. I ordered the tomatillo + baby kale benny and let me say, it did not disappoint at all! It was very delicious, especially the brown butter hollandaise sauce. It was rich and smooth. I was very happy with my order despite coming here specifically for dinner. The atmosphere was nice, most of the seating was on high tops and lots of people were weaving in an out so we had to be mindful of that. The servers were nice too, they gave us a heads up with the menu switching times.

    Pork belly breakfast sandwich
    Rajat G.

    Stopped in for Lunch around 1:30 pm, found out menu was still on Brunch. Good selection for breakfast as well as Bennys & Pancakes. Interiors are done reminiscent of a tavern , staff are welcoming and friendly. Had a Pork belly breakfast sandwich as well as a fried crispy chicken sandwich, both were delicious, prepared well and the potato wedges were awesome !

    I've been to this bar a few times, and I always enjoy the vibe. It does get pretty packed, and you might spend a fair amount of time in line to get in, but overall, it's worth it! The only downside is the strict seating policy--they don't allow table changes. We were seated right in front of the door, and when I asked to switch, they said their priority is accommodating those waiting in line. Still, it's a fun spot with great energy!

    nachos, coconut shrimp
    Marilyn T.

    . ive seen this place all over my tiktok and decided to give it a shout . we went during happy hour and the place was fairly full? just the patio . patio spacing was okay, little tight but we get by . service was pretty good, really nice server . and came by to check up on us often . i was tbh expecting more from the food . nachos are more on the burnt crispy side but the coconut shrimps STOLE THE SHOW!! amazing. . the main entrees felt really "mid" . especially for the price point (20-30$ range) . the burger felt very generic and dry, and the clubhouse sandwich felt like it was left in the toaster for a minute too long- not specifically to our liking . i dont like the drinks. maybe this one is on me for what i ordered (something watermelon) but next time i will be getting something sweeter . the sour patch cocktail was easier to drink but would rather recommend the warehouse's drinks . overall, a not bad experience but will be visiting neighbouring restaurants before coming back.

    Loved our drinks :) service was fast and the ambiance was so fun. We ordered the smashburger and birria tacos

    Came here for drinks and it did not disappoint! I always hear such great things about Ruby Soho. Their drinks and food look delicious here on Yelp, their IG and website. Came here after dinner on a weeknight and got seated quickly. Our server was fun and got our orders quickly as well. The caesar here is BOMB! I really hope to come back soon to try their foods and other drink options. Friday nights here are always packed and during weekend brunches as well. Can't wait!

Very nondescript outside facade - no sign telling you what it is other than a small "BSC" (for Bovine Sex Club) painted near the door. Hard to miss though as the exterior is made up a punk rock style sculpture of rusted bikes & other assorted ephemera. The interior is similar, visually. Great sound system & chill vibes pervade throughout. Weirdly the stage is right in the entrance of the club, on your left, with a long bar along the right side, heading back. Great, crowd, great location in cool area with lots of restaurants & plenty of parking - both on the street up to 2 hours & extended parking for a flat-rate of CA$20 (~$14 USD) from 6:00pm until the next morning, just 2 blacks away.

Without attempting to try to present a front of a time long gone, The Bovine simply exists today as it once did in that time long ago, before Smokes stickers, before iPhones, back when people would just go to a bar to talk with those they didn't know the morning prior. Bring cash though, unless you're looking to make some big orders, because credit card is a minimum fifty-dollar spend.

I mistakenly came upon Town Crier Pub due to some marketing miscommunication on my part. I saw a lovely lunch special sidewalk sign and thought it was for them, but it was actually for the restaurant next door! However, I was already committed, and I always loved pubbing. Opened in early 2011, it was named after the historical role of town criers who served as the primary news source in medieval times. With the general theme of Belgian and German styles, its owners believed that European beers and news were linked. Would I be crying in my beer at this pub for entering the incorrect eatery in this town!? PURCHASE(S) Hacker-Pschorr Munich Gold Lager Beer 5.5% ABV 20floz Draft ($11.50CAD): Golden amber color, aromatic malty aroma, low body, malty sweet flavor, clean smooth finish, and malty aftertaste. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&select=Oks3ELRLtUfkwpMwMfZ7YQ Town Crier Burger + Add Cheese ($17.00CAD + $2.00CAD): A simple burger made with prime rib beef patty, lettuce, pickle, red onion, and tomato on a lightly-grilled bun with an added slice of cheddar cheese, it was a sizable burger and did the job, but there wasn't anything special about it. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&select=XV6Yy6lwP5yngWkIFicroA [ONION RINGS/STRAWS/STRINGS ALERT - 3.5 of 5.0 STARS] Substitute Onion Rings ($3.00CAD): A good side portion with many rings of generally uniform size, these were hot, lightly golden browned, semi-crunchy, and had a tendency to crumble when bitten into while the onion ring (not sweet Maui) pulled out at times. Although they were somewhat oily, they were good, and didn't come with any dipping sauce. Innis & Gunn Mangoes On The Run Fruited IPA Beer 5.0% ABV 20floz Draft ($11.00CAD): Dark strawberry color, fruity mango tropical aroma, low body, fruity hoppy mango sweet flavor, smooth finish, and slight bitter fruity mango tropical aftertaste. This was my favorite of the two for obvious reasons! https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&select=_MZhEukjAcdC0Qfo4P2Kaw SERVICE I was happily greeted by a young host outside on the sidewalk who then directed me to a nice outdoor patio table perfect for people watching and the weather. He handed me a massive menu, supplied a glass of water, and soon enough I placed my order. My beers arrived quickly while the food took about ten minutes. He checked in often while we chatted throughout the time. It was a cool hang out for lunch - danke! PARKING (Varied; N/A this instance): I was in the area all day for the start of the Toronto International Film Festival, so I simply walked. Otherwise, there were spots along the main drag of John St. and all surrounding streets, some nearby structures, numerous public transportation options, and rideshares - 'nuff said! ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE A cozy snug layout throughout, inside had a loungey warm feeling with a focal bar with a few stools https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=0&select=LZIKI_6GFVgLIPXXkbrICA and many closed-in tables; whereas, the outside patio was less formal but equally compact. Inside was very ornate of Belgian and German styles, while outside was casual and simple. Minimal natural lighting entered inside through the few windows and door opening and of course plenty outside while dim electric ceiling and table lights filled in both areas. There were no TVs nor any background music because chatter was everywhere. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=24&select=bYpvTBTNnDqaLvrEqNtYtA ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL Town Crier Pub had me laughing, talking, and people watching for a relaxing afternoon and would gladly return. The number of beers available both on tap and in bottles was insane and I loved it! The food menu was expansive. The food was fine but nothing special, and the prices were relatively comparable. But, it was the service and staff that literally reeled me in for a good time. I found very good value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $50.00CAD BEFORE any discounts/tip). And, they accepted my credit card of choice...

We've never had British food, so this was definitely a unique experience. The ambiance was very mysterious, with the dim lighting and wooden decor.

We ordered a steak pie, along with a tofu and eggplant Thai curry. They were both very delicious and filling. The Thai curry was bursting with spices and flavours that I haven't experienced in any other dish, and I loved it.
