This is one of those places you’d go for last minute plans when you’re downtown. I came here a couple times to grab a few drinks with some friends. It’s a nice little place with a very welcoming atmosphere. It’s a nice place to have a get-​together, catch up over a drink… pitcher or two with a couple of friends. They have dice if you wanna play that asian dice game. Pretty cool that they have Super Nintendo running at the back of the bar. Ahhh… so nostalgic just watching the guys play Mario Kart, haha. Besides from this interesting aspect, they always have a DJ spinning at the back of the bar and oh! They have a foosball table at the back too if you’re into that. It’s quite an accommodating and entertaining place to be! However, as the night progresses, it does get pretty crowded. It’s best to go around 9−10pm since this place is still roomy until it hits 11pm… well, that’s if you do mind the crowd like me…
They have quite a few specials as well… unfortunately, I do not remember the exact days these specials are offered on. But! on one of the the nights (I believe it’s a Friday, please correct me if I’m wrong fellow Unilocalers) it’s a glass of free champagne for the ladies.
Nonetheless, good crowd, good vibe, good music, reasonable drinks, so check this place out if you’re in the area!

I like this little place. I came in after wandering up and down Yonge looking for a place to drink on a boring Wed. evening. Most pubs and bars are dives filled with older people.
When I walked by this place and saw that it was more like a bar you’d see in East Asia and there was a cute Asian (Viet) bartender, I decided to stop in. I didn’t regret it. Plenty of big TVs to watch sports and that cute bartender was very pleasant to talk with. If I’m ever in Toronto again, I’ll stop by and try some food.
Its not actually a Korean bar (anymore), and it has no affiliation with the Wa bar chain in Korea.

Who doesn’t like a small friendly bar that seriously throws down a mean party?!
Only ever been on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. «Ones and Twos Entertainment» spin a mean set here Thursdays, I’m not sure who DJs the rest of the weekend. There are food and drink deals every day of the week if I’m not mistaken.
Party, DJs, beer pong, foosball, deals… what the hell else do you want from a bar?

Love this place! Beer pong, foosball, sports and booze! What more can I ask for? They have cheap drinks on weekdays $ 3.50 until 7pm and have daily drink and food specials! The wings are only $ 5 for a pound on Tuesdays! Also they have Super Nintendo and other drinking games.
I also went a second time and saw a DJ! It was a really fun atmosphere and I’m definitely coming back!

Went here for a birthday party. The staff was very accommodating and friendly. The service was good. Granted it was a great night and we got smashed, but that’s what you want from a bar right?
Things were affordable and the place was not too crowded. It’s small but cozy. There’s something for everyone in an efficient little space.
Booths for drinking. A bar. Beer pong table. Dance floor. And a foosball table. … I lost my hat tho, so ill go back for a round two to look for it!

My boyfriend and I came here based on a blogto review dating back to November 2013 saying it was a «hidden gem» where alcohol is available by the bottle and there’s food too. As we’ve been looking for a good place to accommodate a large group for a birthday party on a saturday night, we were looking forward to trying out a place that was not well known yet. We were there early on a friday night at around 5:30 pm so we could try the food and just see what the place looked like.
Unfortunately, the place looked like a hole in the wall, but not in a good way. I’d like to say that it’s just because they’re going through renovations, but it seemed like only the washrooms were, even though the whole place looked like it needed a renovation makeover. We were surprised as the blogto review was from 3 months ago.
Also, unfortunately, the food was bad. We tried 2 of the japadogs and they tasted like bad street meat with toppings that didn’t go well together. We also tried the kimchi fries, which had cold kimchi on top of warm fries, that didn’t taste or feel good in your mouth. After having tried Banh mi Boys and knowing that they’re just a few blocks south, it was difficult not to compare the difference.
With that sad, the server was extremely nice and friendly and removed one of the food items from our bill. We hope she did not take offence to our dislike of the place. They did have a happy hour of $ 4 rail drinks when we were there so it may attract those wanting to have cheap drinks after work or a student crowd.
We really wanted to like this place, but we’re now on the lookout for another restaurant/​bar to celebrate this birthday.

Came here last night for a drink, and everything was really expensive. Specially for the area. My friend and I each got a jaggerbomb and they were about $ 8 each. Such a waste of money. You are way better off going 2 short blocks south to The Urban House Café where all the shots are under $ 4 and pints are under $ 5.
