The best French toast in Toronto!
Jodi SpanningaSeptember 23, 2010
They say it's the oldest restaurant in Toronto, no msgs or preservatives, no benedict either, but food is really delicious!
Mario MizziOctober 5, 2016
I had the salmon eggs Benedict. Too expensive for what you get and hardly give you any salmon. Steer clear of this joint, in spite of its publicity. I never come back
Natalie GarsideMay 22, 2010
Highly recommend the herb roasted chicken and mashed potatoes. Simple and absolutely delicious!

The service here is awful. My food came 20mins after the rest of my group. The bacon was under cooked! I can't finish this food! It STINKS!
Ahmad ObayJune 20, 2018
The senator breakfast was dry. Orange tasted off. Ridiculously overrated and overpriced. Service is good though.
