"Rated best burgers in town and for good reason. I would have to say its the best burger I've ever had! The rest of the menu is good and the bartender makes some great drinks! Highly recommend for small groups or a romantic evening!"

"We had to take a late reservation - 10pm. The place was still completely full, incl the spaces at the bar. Our server was fantastic & he knew the menu items thoroughly, made very appropriate wine recommendations. We started with the Raw Fish Platter which was fresh and flavourful, lovely start to the meal. My partner had the house made squid ink linguine, the prawns were tender and the flavourings were balanced beautifully with this colourful dish. I enjoyed the famous house burger, which is a VERY generous serving, we should have shared it!"

"I liked the buzz of the place, although it was hard to talk at some points. Food was excellent-great oysters-ordered more.Had an excellent risoto and others had the hamburger which they liked.
Wine list is expensive for the type of restaurant-need more options in the $40 range."

"What a great place. After being named as having Toronto's best Burger, I had to check it out. The room itself is beautiful. A little cramped yet very charming and romantic. I ordered the soup and the burger side a side of the beets and brussel sprouts. The burger was of course the standout. It was rich, buttery and very flavorful. I highly recommend ordering it without the cheese in order to truly experience and taste the meat. On top of the amazing food, Bruce from Dragon's den happened to be sitting next to me and that was very cool as well.
Cant wait to go back!"

"We had dinner at the Harbord Room while in Toronto for the night attending the Theatre. We were pleasantly surprised at the casual fine dining experience we had! The service was excellent - our wine glasses were never empty and yet we were never made to feel rushed as we enjoyed some time to chat. Food was excellent - robust and unique flavors - and just right portion size. Thank- you to Chef Cory and his team for such a pleasant experience!"
