Alexander S.February 23, 2014The kitchen is super great! Chicken Marsala, Angus Burger, Cheese Cake are awesome!!! Atmosphere is pleasant for talking and great evening:) Now in my fav places list:)
Ahmet SabancıFebruary 12, 2014Amazing service and try the best California Chicken Sandwich....mango salsa was soooo good!
Love the homemade ravioli! They also rock at brunch- from traditional to fun twists like spanakopita bennies or healthy egg white omelettes!
Heather TurnerMay 17, 2014Steak was overcooked. If you like rare then this place is good for you. But I like blue rare and this was not. The house salad was nice. It had beet and carrot peels. Not too pricy.
- Geoffrey CavenAugust 16, 2014A hip, urban atmosphere with great service and good food. Would definitely recommend.
Alice PhanNovember 26, 2015Tuesday! $6 Tapas (4-6pm & 10-12am) as well as $4 Pint of Mill Street Tankhouse Ale.
the sandwich options are probably the best deal here. really good. also the sharing platter for 2 is really yummy. however, the veal scampini isn't that great.
Clarissa JordaoJuly 1, 2013Great beer selection, great food, very friendly waitress (Thank you, Rachelle).
April 2012 special on Foursquare: free appetizer (bruschetta or spring roll) when you order one of the specials. Wow!
Dan BrownAugust 9, 2013Keep an eye out for daily drink specials (margarita night, sangria night, etc.)
WinterliciousDecember 21, 2012Join us at Brownstone's Bistro & Bar from January 25 – February 7, 2013 for a delicious, 3-course, prix fixe meal as part of Toronto's Winterlicious. #LiciousTO- Looking for lighter dinner fare? Try my favourite: warm goat cheese salad with added grilled calamari.
Denisse GonzalezMarch 30, 2014The gay bald host is sooo racist and rude! Food was good tho & He seemed chummy to see everyone else but us and tried to seat someone who didn't have a reservation first and we were before him
TinyMarch 30, 2014Racist douche bag host. Seated others before us when we came first then talked shit about us on the way out loudly to a waitress. Food was good but I'll never come back here. Asswipes.
Recently renovated. Love their complimentary mini-muffins at brunch.
Jeremy PacApril 11, 2011The Steak, Chicken, and Shrimp meal for $25 bucks is surprisingly awesome, considering the price.
She Said BlogSeptember 10, 2011Come right after a meal so that by the time they come to take your order you'll be hungry again.
TorontoDrinksWeeklyJuly 3, 2012$4 Creemore pints on Tuesdays
Nicholas DeeSeptember 14, 2013Would be great if there was a server around and not just an order taker
Ask for Big Brownstown Breakfast, but substitute ham for more bacon or sausage.
She So SavvySeptember 4, 20111/2 price appetizers from 4-6pm!
Cari M.August 27, 2012The food was horrible - probably frozen and reheated because my lasagna was a wet mush. The server was really rude. Will never come back
Angie TsangJune 15, 2013Pretty horrible. Waiter completely ignored us for some reason. waited 20min and just ended up leaving
