Best Live Music Restaurants in Leslieville / Riverdale

We've been lucky enough to visit Louis x Louis a number of times in the past, either for dinner or to enjoy one of their spectacular cocktails. Each time has been wonderful, however, our most recent trip was made extra special - thanks to our extraordinary server Salim. His attentiveness bordered on clairvoyance, without being overly interruptive or aggressive. He walked us through the menu and made the best suggestions for both food and paired wines. Our meals were spectacular and the drinks were perfect. An absolutely splendid dining experience.

Service was exceptional. Waiter made great suggestions. Even for wine. Knew the menu really well. All the staff was very attentive. Food was phenomenal and I mean phenomenal.

We went there as a family to celebrate 2 birthdays. We shared several small plates, plus 3 larger ones. Shared all three desserts. Service was exceptionally attentive but not intrusive. We were all very happy with our restaurant choice.

As usual, afternoon tea at the Lobby Lounge was amazing. The food was tasty and the service is always top notch (you feel cared for and important). The piano music is beautiful but maybe because of the way the lobby is designed it can sound kind of loud and you have to speak louder to have conversations.

Incredible value for the New Year’s Day brunch - $68 for a welcome drink, and 2 courses. The servers were friendly and very knowledgeable, able to make many accusations for a gluten free diet and even a non alcoholic drink (that wasn’t just juice). It’s also a huge space which makes it feel relaxing as you’re not yelling to speak and don’t have to be right next to other customers.
