The steak was cooked perfectly, but overall I wouldn't say the other dishes were particularly flavourful. The burger was difficult to enjoy as it was overly salty, & the food options felt quite limited.

The focaccia bread was a highlight, though - it was delicious & definitely one of the better parts of the meal.

Such a cool spot, sat out on the patio with the pup. Had some great cocktails, oysters & cortados.

The inside decor has a super cool vintage vibe but still very unique

My group went to Le Bar Darling for brunch on a Saturday morning. Beautiful restaurant with an amazing atmosphere & really pretty food & drinks. The food was delicious & so fresh.
To top it all off so that I can confidently say that this is my favorite restaurant in all of Canada, the service was amazing. My only complaints are that I didn't come more hungry, & that I didn't catch our waiter's name. Our waiter was attentive, asked us about our food, & made sure we were taken care of.

delicious food at pretty good value. the bread is grilled with butter & pairs beautifully with the ricotta. tartare is delicious though a smaller portion.

Très belle place avec plein de caractère! Le service était assez rapide. Lorsque la place se rempli, je trouve que c'est un peu trop serré entre les tables. La nourriture était délicieuse, mais les portions pas assez généreuses pour le prix, pour certains items. Les cocktails étaient assez forts, une rareté! j'aimerais maintenant y retourner pour le brunch.
