This place is choosen for all the workers of restaurants in junction because is really cheap 🙂 but i get claustrofobic there… Is so small and skinny. The live music is a plus.
So, this is a small place, no reservations, in the Junction. We landed early, around 6:30, and in short order were able to snag a booth for the three of us. Soon after we arrived the flow through the front door was steady and people had long waits, or had to leave. Long waits are worth it, though, because this place is super fun and the food is great. No pretense here. Just a friendly, neighbourhood spot. The cocktails were awesome. There is a solid wine list, a lot of beers to choose from, and one of the lengthiest Scotch lists I have ever seen. Three of us split the grilled broccoli, the Spicy Chinatown Calamari and the Potato and Smoke Cheddar Croquettes to start. These three dishes were superb. We moved on to split the duck wings. Crispy was good, but a bit on the dry side. For mains my husband had the Curry Slaw and Chicken dish, which was beautiful (see photos), but a bit heavy on the mayo for sure. My friend and I split the Steak Frites, which unfortunately arrived cold and our wine was far behind. BUT…..the dish was good. So here is what I would say. This place is really fun, with a great vibe. The food is amazing, and worth some wait times. But…there is a little room for improvement on the service. It’s really slow, which is not great for them because they could have gotten even more drink revenue from us, and could have turned our table a lot faster. We saw three or four people throughout our meal, but only one, apparently, was allowed take an order, and since it was really busy, that meant we waited a very long time for everything, and timing was off. Food arrived colder than it should have, and drinks lagged behind the food. Having said all that, this is still a highly worthy eatery, but in a city with a lot of choices, I just hope they solve the serving problem, and maybe it’s as simple as a host at the door.
