    Loved the cocktails and the vibe but the food was underwhelming We were a table of two seated between two tables of 5 on the banquet and it was hard to chat with no out yelling.

    Our server was quite rude. We ended up having a extra guest with us so our reservation for 4 was for 5 people. Once the table of 2 beside us left, we asked if we could use the table to be a bit more comfortable. Our server rudely stated "ABSOLUTELY NOT, we have reservations." We didn't ask to have the table the entire time, a simple "unfortunately, we have a reservation coming in" would've sufficed. I'll just add in... the table remained empty the entire time from when we asked to when we left. We would have let go of the fact that the food and drinks were nothing exciting, however, the behaviour of our server was absolutely unacceptable. Thankfully, there are many great options to choose from in this city not including Prequel and Co Apothecary. Needless to say, we will not be returning here.

    The food is truly amazing and the atmosphere is so beautiful. I would highly recommend the crème brûlée was absolutely divine. We had to get a second portion of everything because it tasted so good!

    I understand it's an exclusive place or you want to sell that idea. But they should know that there is a line between selling the concept of ​​an exclusive place and being rude. the only person who gave us great service was the bartender. From the beginning to the end, all the other people gave us this vibe that they are doing us a favour instead of giving us a service or an experience. I love cocktails and I've been in a few of the top ten around the world, from Barcelona, to Mexico city, to London. The big difference with those places is how they treat the people, they make you love the place. You should learn from it if you ever want to rank your place in the top 50. With the culture of this city no wonder why there isn't a Torontonian or a Canadian bar ranked in that list. You are from the same team. Learn from Bar Chef, the treatment there is simple and humble. I know you will learn from your mistakes and I do love that you are trying to make something different from Toronto. I hope you will make the necessary adjustments.

    Beautiful space… but service, though friendly, was very slow… waited almost 25 minutes to get my drink. Server said it was bc they “had a rush of ppl arrive at the same time” but I’m assuming that would be pretty predictable on a Friday nite at 730🤷🏻‍♀️
