    We celebrated my boyfriend’s birthday, and it was an amazing experience! We tried the Louix Louis burger, Marlada pasta, and mac and cheese. The burger and pasta were absolutely delicious, but unfortunately, the mac and cheese fell short of our expectations it lacked flavor. Despite that, the ambiance was fantastic, and the service was great . I’d definitely recommend this spot to anyone looking for a great lunch or dinner in the city!

    We dined here for brunch to celebrate my husband’s birthday, after two attempts to celebrate with family over the holidays were postponed due to illness of a number of family members. My husband chose brunch at the Distillery District and I suggested Cluny’s based on some great lunch and dinner experiences I had when I worked downtown. We travel this time from Richmond Hill and the drive was definitely worth it. Can’t say enough about the small plates and brunch options. Thank you!
