Always a great experience! The food was superb as usual. However, I’ve noticed that the cider selection for flights has become a bit less exciting over time.

The food is always excellent at Her Father's; this is the third time we have gone, and they have an amazingly diverse and solid menu. The drink selection, particularly the cider menu, is unparalleled in Toronto.
