One of my favourite places to enjoy fantastic flavours in Toronto. I have been a few times since my daughters took me here, and I love introducing my friends to delicious Mexican cousine, excellent margaritas, and lovely service. Last night we had a singing waiter with a beautiful voice! Everything is wheat and gluten-free and I have enjoyed most items on their menu. So I can say I recommend anything they serve. Yum.

I had a great time at Lobster Burger Bar. The place is modern and classy. They had the leaf game on behind the bar, but it was definitely more of a dinner spot. The manager was super nice and provided free shots for a birthday. Would recommend! 8.6/10

If you are looking for the best Indian meal in town, this is it! The appetizers are so good, the gulab jamun in dessert is out of the world. Abhish was our server & he was the best :)
