The Down Pour is a restaurant that offers a wonderful dining experience, with delicious food and excellent service. It's a great place for special occasions, such as work gatherings or after-parties, and the vibe of the restaurant is welcoming and enjoyable. The staff, including waitresses like Sam and Avory, are friendly and attentive, contributing to a great atmosphere.
The restaurant's design is charming and well-thought-out, featuring a bar area with high table seating and a romantic setting in the back with twinkle lights and umbrellas, creating a sparkling effect like rain. The menu offers a variety of options, from specialty drinks with unique flavors such as pomegranate and fig, pear and ginger, and pumpkin pie, to a large selection of beers and wines.
The food at The Down Pour is highly praised, with dishes like short rib poutine, Caesar salad, feta cheese watermelon and arugula salad, chicken Caesar wrap, ahi tuna appetizer, and fried rice balls receiving excellent reviews. The portions are generous and the ingredients are fresh and flavorsome. The specialty menu, which rotates seasonally, includes a variety of appetizers, meals, and desserts, with the pumpkin tiramisu being a standout.
Prices are mid-range for the area, and while appetizers are reasonably priced, it's worth noting that the specialty menu does not list prices, so it's best to bring a credit card. The bathrooms are clean and quaint, but the stall doors may be a concern for those who have had a few drinks.
