Our mission? Great people helping other great people totally have a blast while enjoying amazing food. Wow, that was a mouthful. But can you blame us? We’re a restaurant. One that specializes in delicious food and great times. Our goal is to make you laugh. And depending on your hot sauce tolerance, cry.

In all seriousness, we take real pride in our food. Try our Cluckin’ Fresh Chicken Fingers, made and seasoned with fresh, never frozen chicken tenders. This isn’t run-of-the-mill pub grub. Our Band of Chefs are influenced by a wide variety of tastes and have travelled across the globe to gain inspiration.

But outside of the kitchen, we find it hard to take ourselves seriously. We’re sports fanatics, music nuts and love a good joke. If you’re into at least one of those things, we should hang out.

I wasn’t thrilled with this place. The hostess would not allow me to bring my water bottle to the table, which was ridiculous. She said it was against policy. She finally allowed me to bring it in if I dumped the water into the potted plant! I then walked to bar to have them refill it. It was a exercise in stupidly. We were seated at a table near some giant palm leaves that kept hitting me in the face. I had to fold the fronds behind each other to eat in peace. My friends’ meals came but not mine. I had to flag down my server to ask. I asked if there was a main floor bathroom because I struggle with stairs. I was told no, even though they are a ‘Service Inspired Restaurant’. On the plus side, the food was good, but I won’t be returning to this place. Downtown Toronto has many great restaurants with great food and far better service.

The service from the staff was excellent. The food was tasty and portion for the price was reasonable. I have no concerns with the customer service or the food and drink, that was great. But the washroom situation is less than desirable. There was no soap and the water was barely trickling out, the locks are broken on the washroom doors. No paper towel left either. For a downtown toronto restaurant, close to major venues for events and concerts, that see a large volume due to this, i would expect the bathrooms to be well stocked and clean. Jack astors you can do better than this.
