Come taste a delicious creation at Harlem Underground. They are open nightly all week and are conveniently accessible by bicycle and public transit. The neighboring location is memorable for its restaurants, merchants and parks.
Great food; really interesting atmosphere. Spectacular drinks! The seats on the outside patio are tree stumps. There's live music too on some days. The menus come on a vinyl record. And I had pretty good service too. No lingering waiters but I saw them pretty often during the night. It's one of the few cozy getaways left in Toronto.

I went there for a going away party on a monday night- we were a large party of servers and bartenders, and were the only ones in there.
the decor was great, and as servers we're a pretty charitable group, but the service was horrible. They never came back to see us, and when they did we ordered like mad- we even asked them to come back more often.
so, yeah, the food was good, the drinks were okay, but the service was horrible.
you'd think that with a tab of $900 for the group they could have paid alittle attention to us, as the ONLY people in there!
Get a feel for the Deep South with Southern-Fried Chicken and Waffles. The dynamic duo of crispy fried chicken and sweet buttermilk waffles, with scotch bonnet-coriander-lime syrup and homemade gravy, is available at both dinner and brunch service.
The true standout - and insta-worthy selection - however, is The Bloody Jerk. While the cocktail itself sounds par for the course (vodka, Worchestershire, Jamaican jerk bitters, Harlem hot sauce, horseradish and Clamato), it’s the garnish that will wow the crowd: Harlem's Signature Mini Chicken n’ Waffles, candied plantain and deep-fried pickle.
