    Cashew chicken
    Soriah B.

    This was a great experience. The service was attentive and hospitable. I would suggest getting there early or if reservations are possible, go for it as it is a small space but very cozy. The lights were very dim but the music was nice. We started off with banana frites which was torn up quickly with some pikliz. After that, we ordered the macaroni au gratin and oh my goodness, that was some of the best mac we have had in a long time. My husband and I cherished every single penne. I'm not sure if it was us walking 30 minutes to this restaurant or if the drinks were hitting just right but wow. Do not sleep on that mac. I do want to disclose that it doesn't taste like your typical Haitian mac and cheese that you get from a family member or restaurant in Miami but it was still very good. I had the cashew chicken and red beans and rice. It lacked a bit of spice but the pikliz and hot sauce saved it. We were so full that we had to get an Uber back to our hotel. We really want to come back when we visit again.

    Is this a bar that also serves Haitian food or a Haitian restaurant that's also a bar? With the crowd and music at 11pm, it was definitely the former, and the abundance of bar seats leads me to suspect this is also the case earlier in the day. Philosophical questions aside, I got the Macaroni au gratin & street style griot. Street style meant the griot came with plantains. It was huge for a "snack". The pork was crispy & tasty. It was a good cut - tender but still with some sweet fat. The plantains were smashed & fried, so they were super crispy & had some flavorful seasoning too. There was also grilled onions & peppers, which were also very tasty. The macaroni was rich with a crispy topping & a creamy, cheesey sauce. It used macaroni & penne which was nice variety. Relatively speaking it wasn't as big as the griot. You get a free flow of spicy pickled cabbage. It's crisp but pretty spicy. It was my first time trying ting, which was delicious. Oddly it came in a glass, not bottle. The washroom had a strong vanilla bean scent, and half nude bodies, which was odd.

    It's Friday night and it's a happening place here. My daughter suggested Haitian food and I was all in. While we waited for a table we sat at the bar and shared Rhum punch. I've never experienced this before but it was pre-made in what appeared to be a 12 oz brown bottle. Two drinks were partially poured into glasses each containing a large cube of ice. Fresh nutmeg was grated finely on the drinks. It was a unique taste for me. Didn't seem to have a lot of alcohol but was certainly refreshing. Had Griot as an appetizer. Never heard of it before but in part contained plantains and pork. Also had a cashew chicken dish and fried chicken. It wouldn't do it justice to explain the flavors of these dishes but suffice it to say you have to sample this to appreciate it. This is a bar/restaurant ananda where we were seated in the back was loud in nature but we made do. I would recommend visiting as where I'm from I've never come across it. It's relatively small inside and on the dark side. Service was good. They were pretty attentive.

    Great drink.

    The Rhum Corner was a great overall experience. If you want a good cocktail and great atmosphere you've definitely come to the right place. The space is is decorated with murals/ art which creates the island vibe in the middle of Toronto. The wait staff were very delightful. We sat in the bar area, and chatted for a bit about our lives and the things that are fun to do in The city. Great group of people. The food was just as amazing. We order a bunch of bites as well as plates. The griot, macaroni au gratin, fried chicken (only served on the weekend I think). I'd really recommend the macaroni as it was beyond flavorful. Spicy, tangy, and just all around hearty. I can't remember what the drink was but it was a phenomenal shareable. Can't wait to stop by again.

    I like dark rum and have passed by Rhum Corner many times ... this evening we stopped in to check it out. We sat at the bar. To try a variety of rums, we ordered flights ... you get a half ounce of each rum. We started with Kal's flight as he was our bartender. He was friendly and definitely knowledgeable about rum. We liked his recommendations ... they had a bold taste. Then we tried Julia's flight. We liked Julia's ... they were smooth but not as bold-tasting as Kal's. It was fun to try the different rums this way as we could actually taste them since they weren't masked by pop. And it's a good way to check out higher-end rums than we usually drink. We'll stop in and do other tastings sometime.

    Delicious cocktails! The Jungle Bird had sweetness from the pineapple, but was still well balanced and so pretty. The Golden Hour had a bit of spice from the ginger. My bf got a rum old fashioned which tasted just how you'd imagine. For food, I got a flaky patty with salted cod inside. We also got 2 pieces of crispy, flavourful and juicy fried chicken. The oxtail was rich and filling. They give a side that looks like coleslaw - beware, it is spicy af (even for my spice-loving bf). Still tasty to nibble on though. They don't take reservations, but if you get there early it's fairly easy to get a table. Their patio is cute with umbrellas to shade you. The service was attentive and friendly. Washrooms were gender neutral. At the time I went, indoor dining wasn't allowed, but during my trip to the washroom I could see the decor inside was cozy yet stylish! Overall a great vibe and great experience.

    Saturday night at Rhum Corner was a delight. I had just read owner Jen Agg's fantastic book and was inspired to try the cocktails and Haitian menu. Entertained by anti-vaxx protesters while we munched on fried chicken and pork shoulder, Ms. Agg joined the patio and her diners as she weathered the abuse with grace and dignity. Her staff were warm and friendly as they too manoeuvred through the chaos. My water glass was never empty and my cocktails were icy cold. We'll be back and most likely with friends.

    Nice cozy spot with limited seating and nice vibes/music. Had the spiced rhum and ginger ($10) which was a tasty cocktail. Also tried the oxtail dish which was cooked well and served with rice and some kind of gravy. They had a jar of coleslaw on the table - it had a nice spicy kick to it, and was on the vinegary side.

    Came here for some pre-drinks before dinner with a few friends. Luckily we managed to get seating at the bar for all of us. This place is tiny - bordering on claustrophobic for me - I felt squished in. It's dark, it's cozy and it's lively and loud here! You want to try and discover new rums? Come here! You want to get some knowledge about rums? Come here! Basically I think everyone should check this place out with the intention of trying out some new brands. Once you've had a good quality rum you will never go back to the cheap stuff. It goes down smooth, like velvet...instead of a 3rd degree burn. The service as many others have mentioned is a bit lackluster. I know they are busy but we waited awhile for our bill, even asking for it twice. Since we were on a time crunch and had dinner reservations we ended up going to the back to pay at the small counter. I'd go back in the summer, maybe at an off peak time when it isn't so slammed to try some more of their libations.

    Some of the bar! :)

    So I was in Toronto for about a week and had tried so many different spots and types of foods. On my last day, this is where I went..... BEST DECISION EVER!!! I walked about 40 minutes here from my hotel (didn't know any better). But glad I burned some of the calories I was about to ingest! The setting is really nice. I'm Haitian and I was really happy to see a place that kept the integrity of our culture and was still able to share it with others in a way they can enjoy! I walked in and Haitian music was being blasted, drinks were being served, people were talking having a blast, and eating amazing food. The first thing I ordered was a drink. I got the Spiced Rum + Ginger. That was really good. For a bar/restaurant, it's nice to have a place that has really tasty but strong drinks! After that I ordered the griot as an appetizer. I loved it! It was extremely moist, which can be hard to do with griot. It was a little bit on the salty side, but still very enjoyable. They had little jars of piklíz all over the place. And I loved it! To see and eat, haha. To go, I got the boulette entre (seasoned meatballs). Usually, they are fried and this was the first time I had them in sauce. It was a surprise to me when I opened the box. But man! I'm glad I went with it cause boy was it good! I loved that they also had their own hot sauces. I bought 3 bottles to go just because they were so good and hot! It's like piklíz in a bottle. On top of the great food, my server was also amazing! Very knowledgeable, friendly, and patient! I don't remember her name, but it was cool they hired someone very familiar with the culture. I highly recommend this place. If you live in Toronto or are there for a visit, it's a really nice place to go.

Was very cold with a touch of orange and came with show of a long pour which was fun. They have their own vodka and gin they use. 5 stars - Menu: sweet/dry, light/spirited quadrants mapped out on the front page Also a sketch drawing of the drink so you can see what type of glass you'll get and colorful pictures on the side to set the mood. - Spicy nuts: good yet dusty but bonus for having hazelnuts. 4 stars Midlights: - Can get on waitlist if full and can text you (note: was full even early afternoon on a Saturday) - Wanted to try more food like the beef sandwich or french onion soup but we were in between meals Lowlights: - Took over 30 min to get our first drink after ordering which was odd at a hotel of this caliber. The next ones did not have the same wait time which was good.
