“Came based on Reddit reviews saying it was the best chicken sandwich in Toronto. It was good. Very good. And the fries were super tasty. But a chicken sandwich is supposed to be made with chicken BREAST, not dark meat. Will be back though. Great job guys.“

“This is a great little gem in Toronto's Junction neighborhood. The brunch was delicious. We had the specials. Their home fries are the most unique and delicious fries I have ever eaten. They also have a cool waitlist option that they use to seat their guests. The servers are very polite and friendly.“

“Best BBQ I've had in the city but the service is disorganized asH.

Been here multiple times but every time the staff have no system or management. Everyone is doing something and nothing at the same time.

Other than that this place is still 5 stars but pray you're not in a hurry LOL“

“My friend had a big family reunion last night with over 50 people coming in from all over GTA and beyond to King West. Her 500 sq ft condo wasn’t going to hold everyone, so she booked her beautiful condo party room.

So… what to serve? Well… queue SmoQue N’ Bones. She ordered over $1700 worth of food. And it was supposed to be ready for pick up at 4 pm. They were ready with all the perfectly packed containers by 4:05 pm. They apologized for being late (which of course they were not!) and provided us with lots of accompanying sauces and dips. The food was so tasty! Loved the slider, ribs, corn bread, corn, sweet butter, wings…. Incredible!

I walk by here all the time and haven’t once gone in to try the food. After this experience, I would definitely order from them for a party but also will consider it an option next time we are wondering where to go for dinner.“

“The BBQ here was full of flavor with a lovely smoky touch that I really enjoyed. The ribs stood out with their finger-licking dry rub while the brisket taco was moist, tender, and packed with flavor. I finished off with a small portion of burnt ends which paired perfectly with my old fashioned. The bourbon selection was impressive and definitely something I’ll have to explore more next time when I am not driving.“
