    Really fing hot wings
    Christina D.

    Score on King was walking distance from our hotel (TOOR) and got good reviews, so we gladly went. We were exhausted from flying in early morning from Fort Lauderdale, but the sweet bartender (Carlee/Cassie? Sorry!) made us feel at home and even gave us recommendations for things to do in the city. The ambiance is that of a small, quirky sports bar with outdoor seating. We split the wings as an appetizer, which were good, but would have liked to know that they were breaded ahead of time, we would have requested naked wings. I ordered the pulled pork mac and cheese, which was DIVINE. I'm still dreaming about it... Hubby ordered the Korean Short Ribs, which were ok, but he preferred my mac and cheese. I would definitely recommend this spot to locals!

    Made a pit stop here late one night and their Seasars were . I'll be returning to try two more.

    honey garlic wings, lemon pepper wings, kale caesar salad
    Suzanna G.

    My partner and I walked into Score on King on Dec 11, after walking by and saw they had a wing special for $12/pound, so we decided to take a shot. We were seated pretty quickly, although the service was a little bit slow and not as attentive as expected. We placed 2 orders of wings for $12 each (honey-garlic and lemon pepper), and a kale caesar salad ($18) to share. Honestly, the food was pretty underwhelming. My honey-garlic wings were pretty standard, but the lemon pepper wings barely had any flavour. You also had to pay an extra $1.5 just for ranch/blue cheese sauce, and there were no vegetables. The normal price for the wings is 19.5 dollars, in which I would have been really disappointed with the quantity. The salad was also lacklustre, it was very lacking in the toppings (e.g. maybe 2 or 3 cherry tomatoes, a light dusting of parm) considering what we paid for it. We left the restaurant still feeling hungry, but unwilling to order more food from the restaurant due to the previous showing. The atmosphere was trendy, a busy sports bar, and seemed popular with people grabbing drinks after work or having a casual date. The music was super loud, so it was difficult to hold a conversation.

    Beautiful Canadian Sunday!

    Wanted a brunch spot to watch American football while we wait for our flight.. The interior bar, food selection and reasonable pricing caught my eye. But to my surprise they had a very inviting outdoor seating situation with a $5 breakfast deal and it was a beautiful day!! Service was a little slower then I'd like BUT very nice. Plenty of food options for even the pickiest of eaters, plenty of TVs inside for the sports goer (none outside). Tator tots were the perfect crisp, eggs were fluffy. Mimosas are basically orange juice so just get Prosecco. TVs inside playing sports and music in background. And my favorite part, it cost us $40 with 20% tip! Loved this spot! Must check out t

    Perfect for Friday night/ after-work get together with collages, if you are working close by. I was curious about this place everytime I pass by during my work time. As it has a beautiful patio always full of happy-looking people. Glad I finally came here to be one of them! This place is famous for their specialty food Caesars garnished snacks (like onion rings etc). But I opted out for this, and ordered regular Caesar this time as we ordered other snack for share. Regular Caesar is not on the menu but it is available. They have a good selections of draft beer as well! White Sangria was very refreshing, and good kick of chardonnay with loaded fruits flavor. Jungle jim (cocktail) was also nicely boozy and flavorful. The egg white topping was not as creamy as I wished. Yet, it was tasty. Nacho came with a very large portion way more than enough to share with 3 of us. Salsa was a bit mushy. But the food was not what I looked for - I looked for a relaxing nice vibe space to spend time with my good colleagues to celebrate our surviving another crazy week. I think many guests around us came here for same reasons - to relax. Nice patio, efficient and friendly service, and a lot of drink options! I cannot wait for coming back with my colleagues again!

    Fried chicken lettuce wraps
    Stephen C.

    Nice after-work hangout, nice appetizers Food: The appetizer we ordered, the fried chicken lettuce wraps, tasted very fresh with the crispy butter lettuce, carrots, cucumbers, crispy onions, fried chicken, and the sesame aioli with a hint of peanut that tied things together. It was a great start to our meal for sure. The Miami ribs were okay, with the ribs having a nice grilled flavour, and the egg cooked nicely, but the rice was on the dry side and the broccoli was a bit bitter. The tuna poke bowl was a little underwhelming, and was more of a salad of mixed vegetables and tuna rather than a typical poke bowl you would expect. Overall, I think what other reviewers mentioned was sound advice - I would stick to the shareables, drinks, and come for the vibes, and not for the food. Service: Our server was very friendly and welcoming, and was highly attentive. We were seated quite quickly, and the water and food came rapidly as well. We even had our plates cleared after our appetizer, and our table cleaned. The service was impeccable and fully redeemed. Atmosphere: We were seated inside as it was lightly drizzling earlier today and on the chilly side. It was on the dark and moodier side, and good for hanging out with co-workers or friends after work to share a few drinks. It was definitely on the louder side as the music tuned out conversations around us.

    Stopped for brunch with friends, ordered Chicken & Waffles, The Lil Breakfast as well as a couple of Green Toast & Jam, pleasantly surprised with the quality of food, well prepared, tasteful and quite good. We chose to sit inside as it was quite a hot day although they have a shaded and large patio. For drinks, we had Spiked Lychee tea & mimosas. Service was great, staff friendly.

    I've been here a couple times for drinks and eats. I love their patio with the big wooden booths. The decor inside is really nice and hip rather than a grungy sports bar. They have great drinks, my favourite being all of the fancy caesar's you can get. You can essentially just order caesar's with crazy fixings and that can be your meal! That being said it'll be hard not to order food b/c their food is great too. I've had their breakfast sandwich and nachos. Both were large, flavourful and delicious. I'm so glad this place is near my office for after work fun!

    Excited to eat tonight at Score on King!

    I've always passed this place whenever around Union station and yesterday was the first time I tried it! It was moderately busy for a Friday night and my friends and I sat on the patio. The service was great. Our waitress was friendly and gave us good recommendations for the pineapple sriracha chicken wings and the small nachos with pulled pork. The food was good, but nothing too crazy. Portions were big enough for us to be satisfied and the nachos we had were enough for 3 people to share comfortably. Towards the end of the night, we ordered the ice cream sandwich and it took over 15 minutes to get to our table. We had to ask the waitress to get our order and once we did, she brought it out right away. Overall, the place is alright for a late-night food stop in the downtown core. The patio has great ambiance and the surrounding area is nice to walk around and take photos.

    Mac & Chaesar
    Tyga M.

    The good: I really enjoyed the Ceasar cocktail, even better than the bloody mary - the ceasar is less salty and less spicy, and felt more refreshing. Also, the experience of getting a cocktail with food on a stick is generally fun, and the price was reasonable. The ok: the aforementioned food on said stick was... meh. Not bad, but not at all memorable. I got the Mac & Cheasar, which comes with two Mac and cheese balls and 3 onion rings. The balls were good in the sense that you could taste the actual macaroni in them and the breading wasn't overwhelming, but that and the onion rings lacked flavor outside of the strip of ketchup that comes on the balls. Note: this definitely didn't feel filling enough to be a meal on its own, so be prepared to eat again soon after. If you do plan to order another entree there, be prepared to pay, as entrees looked to start around $18-20. The annoying: right after I put in my order, I got noticed that their internet was downand they wouldn't be able to accept card payments electronically (if paying by card, they would write down your info... yeah, that's a no for me). The server was nice about me hopping to the bank across the street to try to get some money, but alas, they did accept American cash for the meal, which I luckily had. TLDR: treat the ceasar drink as an appetizer, and bring cash just in case.

    A good place to hang out and have some drinks and snacks. We stayed there for like 4 hours and had a bunch of drinks and food, no one rushed us to pay the check of leave the table and we laughed, talked and had lots of fun. Drinks felt a bit watered down but otherwise were tasty, food was subpar but still good enough for a causal night out.

    Ain't no thang Caesar
    Gurbani K.

    This is a pretty popular spot at the King street! Do reserve a table before going here because I had to wait 45 minutes to get in but I was definitely worth the wait. I ordered their most in demand item the Caesar - Ain't no thang: which comes with a glass of Caesar with 4 onion rings and 4 chicken wings. This drink is perfect as it comes with snack to goes well with the drink. The chicken wings were amazing. Costed me $15 for the whole thing and it was worth the money!! The ambience of the place is also so good and inviting. The customer service is top notch. Even the water that was served was like to point, right temperature and it felt so nice. I'll definitely recommend this place to everyone!! It's going to be my hangout spot for sure.

    Great steak and an amazing garlic sauce!…read more I ordered the steak with fries and was really impressed with the steak. It was cooked to a perfect medium-rare -- nicely seared on the outside and juicy and tender on the inside. The fries were also crispy and delicious. The real surprise for me, though, was the garlic sauce that came with them. It was so good that I decided to try it with my steak, and it paired incredibly well. Definitely one of the highlights of the meal! The mushrooms, unfortunately, were just okay. Considering how expensive they were, I didn't think they were worth the price and probably wouldn't order them again. Our waitress was friendly and pleasant, which we appreciated. However, she did forget to bring us water and takeout containers, so we had to remind her. It was a minor inconvenience, but it did take away a little from the overall experience. Overall, the steak, fries, and especially that garlic sauce made for a great meal. I'd definitely come back for the steak and fries!

Same waiter comes back five minutes later with no drink and asks AGAIN for my food allergies, explaining that I have to tell him that I have one.

I loved every bite. My husband's chicken was crisp, crunchy and flavored fantastically. Highly recommend these items if you can still get them.

We ended up sitting at the bar since we were walk-ins. It is also a very low light restaurant, especially at night. so it might not be the best place for older adults or those who are visually impaired. Service was good, however, we were somewhat forgotten at times since we were tucked away in a dark corner. We ended up ordering the Truffle Fries, the Spicy Rigatoni Vodka pasta, the Korean Chicken, and the Vodka Pie. The truffle fries were crisp and plentiful. We added sausage to the Spicy Rigatoni Vodka pasta, and it was delicious paired with the pizza. The Korean Chicken were bite sized and flavourful as well. However, The vodka Pie haunts me in my dreams. I think I crave this pizza about every week. The pizza at King Taps has one of the best crusts I've ever had, and the vodka sauce is to die for. It's sad to know that this pizza will rotate out, I'd definitely try it before it leaves! I will be back for the Vodka Pie, mark my words!

We started with the Brussels sprouts which is always a great choice from here. Crispy on the outside and not an overwhelming Brussels sprout taste. This is likely because there is a generous sprinkling of grated parm and a great amount of dip. We tried the crispy tuna sushi. The tuna was beautifully marinated, so flavourful. And the sushi was nice and crispy. The vodka pie was a seasonal item and when we saw it listed, we knew we needed to try it. The sauce- amazing, the press was nice and flaky and light and really tasty. And the soccer Sada added nice saltines and flavour without being too overwhelming. For happy hour, the apps and pizzas were $5 off, and the ranch water was $5. I'd come back for the pizza alone! Jeans was our waitress and she was great!
