    Nice looking club and good music. But the vibe was way off. Me and my friends tried to sit down to have a drink and to chat but got kicked off the sitting area because we didn't do bottle service. So we moved politely. Then got kicked away from another seating area again. When I told the lady that I didn't know this, this wasn't informed she just responded with "Well that's just how we do things here so you need to get up. " This wasn't very comforting since we payed 30 dollars entree per person and about 100 dollars on one round of drinks, we just wanted to relax and enjoy for a bit. The drinks were great and the bartender ladies were very nice. Wouldn't recommend going here unless you get bottle service(?) you might get treated differently.

    I went to this place only once. The interior design is very good and stunning. They have two big hall and patio as well. Their music is not the best and it wasn’t my taste and I was wondering with playing good songs this place can be amazing for Friday/Saturday night. We got bottle service and it was pretty pricy. I think this place is good for having parties and they do that too, because when we were there it was a group of people getting ready for birthday party.

    Good was good but the service was average at best. My colleague is celiac and asked the waitress a few questions. The waitress responded very vaguely to every question and we didn’t feel confident with her answers. And on top of that, she kept on mentioning “ok we know about your severe dietary restriction” and it was pretty rude... she mentioned that maybe 4 times and it got sort of awkward. Anyways - apart from the service. Food was good and bumping music!

    We came here for a party with friends and it was great! Music was awesome while the place wasn’t packed at all. Then we tried to book a table on our own and didn’t get a response for a week! Their Instagram says “dm to reserve a table”. I dm’ed and got a quick response that someone will reach out via email. Nothing. I followed up and got the same response. Still nothing. Then I sent an email to them instead of waiting for them to reach out to me. A few days later, the night before the party (!), I finally receive a templated email which I had to wait for a week?!! At that point, we already had other plans. It was a very unprofessional treatment from the Booking Manager. If the business says “dt to book a table” then be respectful to actually timely book your customers and not make them wait for a week. As much as I liked my first visit and wanted to introduce more friends to Parlour270, this unprofessional experience just ruined it all.

    Nice atmosphere. Artists bring the crowd. However low A/C and ine bartender thought they were slick and didn't give me my change. Common ethics to always return that. This is the real reason why I made this review. Sorry lady, you shouldn't have thought I was intoxicated.

    I visited this business with my wife for a drink for our anniversary. I accidentally hit with my shoulder another guest while dancing and apologized for it. As a surprise he brought the bouncer and asked him to kick me out. The guest started grabbing me from my hands basically wanted to fight with me while the bouncer being present and not doing anything I was forced to leave so I didn't make a scene in front of my wife. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE AT ALL

    Good place. Bouncers, bartenders, and management seem good. The operation of this place is fairly smooth. No wanna-be terminator bouncers. No one constantly policing you. Overall friendly staff. I err on the younger side of the age of the average population that frequents this place. This never seemed to be an issue. For its targeted audience, this place is a solid 4/5. When it comes to night life ratings that's pretty much gold standard, a "gem spot" if you will. I have noticed something; that the speakers farther away from the DJ desk are lower in volume. I don't know if this is intended or not, but I enjoy it as I know if I want to have a conversation with someone I can just kind of walk to the back of the venue . .

    This place has been playing extremely loud music open air past midnight almost on a daily basis. They have a patio hidden away in a back alley and we couldn’t pinpoint the location the music was coming from for the longest time. It’s now 1AM on a Thursday night I went out and was finally able to trace it to here. There are a lot of clubs in the area and none of them emits this much noise pollution, affecting all the residential buildings in the area. DO NOT SUPPORT THIS BUSINESS, THEY NEED TO BE FINED.

    Really great spot for brunch on weekends. We tried a few different dishes and everything was delicious. There is also a nice heated patio outside. Definitely recommend the pork belly bites!

    Good music and strong drinks. The atmosphere was great as well. I wish it was a little more busy though. Saturday night at 12:45am and it was really that busy.

    I highly do not recommend going to this establishment for either a drink or to have fun. They kicked my husband out just because he bumped someone by mistake.

    Went to Toronto for a work party and ended up here, had to pay 25 dollar cover for everyone and then got kicked out in 45 mins for things that weren’t even rude! The bouncers were extremely rude! Won’t be recommending to anyone

    Went here for my birthday and it was totally worth it. The DJ and bartenders were great!

  • 5/5 Nadia J. 4 years ago on Google
    It’s like a little house with mansion aesthetic. Such charming decor and for the most part, grounded people. Small dance floor but people respect your space from my experience. The washrooms are upstairs, kind of steep so I wouldn’t recommend heels going here. Cover charge is a bit expensive but it is worth it if you’re staying the whole night and are looking for an after party in Toronto.

  • 1/5 Varun V. 1 year ago on Google
    Very small place. And just the trance music playing. Not so interesting to dance. Too much crowded and no vibe to have fun.

  • 5/5 Melissa A. 4 years ago on Google
    One of my favorite spots in the city for good house music. Awesome setting, Victorian furbishing, dim lighting really creates a good ambiance. Is a great place to grab a drink and enjoy a good house set with out the crazy atmosphere of a normal club. There is a small area to dance which I also enjoy. So whether your in the mood to dance or just sit back and enjoy the vibe this place is perfect.

    They don't get the indian come in and just let the girls with nice look can come in. Racists . Very poor club

    Pretty nice venu but it gets very crowded. Music is very good as well!

  • 1/5 Gabrielle L. 5 months ago on Google • 1 review
    I live next to this place and it’s impossible to sleep. They are so disrespectful blasting music on the patio until 2am SO LOUD. There is a bunch of other clubs around yet they are the only one we can hear. We are on a pretty high floor of our condo building and yet it sounds like we are in the club 😭. This needs to stop.

👍 Good food as always! Convenient. Kids friendly. One star less because in the men’s washrooms there is no arrangement for baby diapers change. I managed it somehow but for a single dad with baby it is not convenient. I hope management would put up something to resolve it. Thank you.
