Jack Astor's Bar & Grill, Toronto, ON (Bloor/Yonge)

I had four enrolment seminars to conduct today in the Yonge/Bloor Street area.

For lunch, I went to Jack Astor's.


I got there about 12:30pm and it was busy.  There were no tables available so I sat at the bar.


I ordered what I always order at Jack Astor's ... Chicken Parmigiana.  I really like it.


When it arrived, the cheese wasn't melted (it was really obvious) and when I stuck my finger in it, the chicken was stone cold.  Needless to say, I sent it back.  The chicken came back piping hot but the pasta was just warm.  It was tasty, though.


Even though there were a bunch of servers buzzing around, I found the service lacking.  After my meal was delivered, no one checked to see if I wanted a refill on my pop when my glass was empty or if I wanted dessert.  After waiting for a while, I had to ask for my bill.

I've been to some great Jack Astor's ... this one is definitely not one of them.  I won't be back.
