Wickedly delicious and original drinks, martinis, good Mexican beer options and super-yummy food. Outside seating for enjoying summer evenings and people watching. Can be crowded and noisy inside but that is part of it's charm.

This is my solid "go-to" place for lunch or dinner. Always good food, comfortable, quiet enough to converse, often pleasant acoustic music in the evenings, a nice fire place in the winter and elegant historic decor. Don't miss this.

Excellent sourdough breads in many varieties (try cherry with nuts and German chocolate) and fabulously exquisite treats such as bird's nest cookies and raspberry tarts. Such a cute place tucked away in an alley behind the BMO, it makes you feel like you have slipped into another world!
