Had a great time at this bar. Very cute Christmasy vibe and all the servers were amazing. This place is so underrated compared to the bigger “viral” Christmas bars there are. The walls are wrapped completely in Christmas wrapping paper, the lights and decorations were so nice. My friends and I got the crispy fries on their menu and some drinks and they were literally so good! Everything was great :)

A staple of the Ossington strip. Food is excellent, but pricey. Portions were good, but they’re designed more for 2 (I visited as a party of 4). A great place to bring a date, with a relaxed vibe all around. Would go again.
