    Great place for cocktails, conversation, and elevated bar food. Cocktails were all good and as described in the menu. The lobster roll and thin fries were stand outs. Lots of lobster, roll toasted just right, and stuffed full. Fries were crispy and perfectly salted. Went well as a starter with the cocktails. Lots of varied seating and late hours.

    We booked to eat at Hemingway’s on Christmas Day before we left England based on reviews and the fact it did a Christmas dinner! We had a fantastic experience / seated upstairs on the patio, the service was exceptional and the festive dinner was tasty, hot and plenty of it - and all for $23. Would definitely recommend eating here and if we ever come back to Toronto then we’ll definitely be back. 10/10

    I had an incredible dining experience at Score on Queen! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting. Our server, Rucker, went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. He was attentive, knowledgeable about the menu, and made excellent recommendations. The food was absolutely delightful, bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. I can't wait to return and enjoy another fantastic meal. Highly recommend!
