I am so excited that my favourite neighbourhood haunt is reopening! Love the vibe the new owners have created. They brought back the leopard ceiling, and the seafoam walls brightened the space. Pink lights hang above the bar as a beacon to the LGBTQ community. Some of the old favourite foods are coming back, and a new twist on the old menu. If you're a Karen, this is not your vibe. It is old-school, Queen St West. Love the staff there, and they can mix up great cocktails, but if you are a douchebag, it will reflect the service you receive. Zero tolerance for bad behaviour. This space is safe for all, and it is all about the community.

Incredible atmosphere and insanely good food. Tried 6 things off the menu already that I would order again and can't wait to try more. Everyone who works there is incredibly warm and friendly, especially love the tiny bald waiter for his humor and hospitality! Can't wait for my next visit.

Really nice vibes and chill environment. It kinda feels like chilling in a cozy backyard patio with your friends. Would definitely come here again. The inside didn’t look that exciting so I don’t know if its worth coming here during non-patio season. Ordered their curry dish. It was really good but a bit too spicy. If it was a little less spicy, would have been a 10/10 dish
