According to the Toronto
Star, “Great food, great jazz and incredible atmosphere!! Great place to spend time your significant
other.” While Tripadvisor.com said, “…one
of the finest overall dining experiences I’ve ever had. I tip my hat to you, Boiler room restaurant
House!”
The Boiler House is located inside Toronto's Historic
Distillery District at 18 Tank House Lane, about 150 feet from the movie-famous
iron gates. Its location was one of the
reasons why I love this place.
I started this review with in a very confident way as the Toronto and
Tripadvisor.com were also very confident in saying that the place is really
great. I have a lot to say about The Boiler House and most of them are in their
favor. At first it wasn’t exactly the
best dining I prefer but maybe subconsciously I fell in love with the place
when I started going there frequently, I schedule meetings there more often and
dine there for no reason at all. Not only me but this place is actually the
number one stop, a meeting, dining, and party destination.
I just love the feel and the vibe of the place, the
atmosphere was very welcoming. There are
a lot of things going on in this place but it was never tiring in the
eyes. There is this towering 22-foot
wine rack, the jazz trio perched overhead, or the sultry projected image of a
woman seemingly emerging from the century old-brick walls.
I especially like the way the place was constructed, the raw
wooden beams and planks reclaimed from the original Gooderham and Worts
Distillery predominate - from the floors and booths to the massive bar and
25-foot ceilings. You can really feel
its 100 years of existence.
Yes, this place has
been existing for 100 years; according to their official website, The Boiler
House was the main source of energy for The Distillery. The coal-fired boilers
are now long gone but the energy remains the same. This is where the
Distillery's heart beats.
The site also says, Two "Gotham City" style,
heritage alcohol pasteurizing tanks perch up high, are left over from the
Distillery's days as Ontario's largest sprits exporter. Today they're beautiful
pieces of art and help set the tone of "cool industrial chic".
Another thing I like about this fine-dinning place is
because they leave you with many choices.
You can choose an upstairs perch overlooking the popular bar, a table or
booth on the lower level, or one of the "snog booths", a
pedestal-style enclosure that frames a romantic dinner for two. This is a very romantic and intimate place
for lovers and a perfect quiet place for meetings and businesses.
