Restaurants near Holiday Inn Toronto Bloor Yorkville

My first time at the king Street location and the ambience was great. Initially I loved it. My issue was with my order. I ordered two espresso martinis made with tequila instead of vodka and they both came loaded with some kind of hot pepper! My throat and lips were burning after I tried it. That was a major mistake in my opinion that unfortunately turned me off of the drink even though the waitress was apologetic and brought new ones. I understand mistakes will be made but when the bill came I was also charged 4 times for the two drinks that were originally laced with hot pepper! I didn't get the drinks removed from my bill for the pain of the first sip (long lasting burning in my throat and lips) and for the inconvenience. I think that is what should have been done in that situation. Other from that unfortunate experience, I enjoyed the restaurant.

Service from greeting to payment was attentive and exemplary. The food recommendations were spot on and everything we ate was outstanding. We also loved the ambiance and are planning to return with friends early in the new year.

Overall the atmosphere was great and the food delicious. I liked the pear salad and the shorth ribs were testy. Unfortunately the desert choice was disappointing, Christmas pudding or apple crumble were cheap options for the menu price and the restaurant standards.

The atmosphere was wonderful, like a winter wonderland with cozy igloos, blankets, cushions, and outside there were trees, firewood, and a cozy fire. It felt like I was far away from being in the middle of Toronto! The food was delicious, flavorful and creative. The service was just lovely, attentive and just right! The igloo had 2 heaters in it so the temperature was comfortable. It was a memorable experience. I will certainly go again!

Delicious breakfast and great drinks. Wonderful service by all.
