The Rosebud
Couples walk under an antique sleigh to enter Rosebud, clarifying the restaurant's name. Once inside, the comfortable, cozy, 30-person dining room is the perfect place to escape busy Queen West for some intimate conversation. The menu offers a fusion of French and British cuisine, with black pudding fritters and wild board tourtiere served alongside brined and roasted quail. Reservations are strongly recommended.
