This basement honky-tonk has quickly turned into a mecca for roots, bluegrass, and country rock in Toronto. High-profile singer/songwriters like Ron Sexsmith (a local resident), Serena Ryder, and John Doe (of X) have graced the small stage under the disco ball. Excellent Mexican and Southern-accented food is on offer, and the bar stools fashioned from wine barrels are a fun touch that pay... more

There’s something that differentiates The Dakota from other trendsetting bars on gentrified Ossington. Maybe it's the gun as the door handle. Maybe it's the fact that the live music here is bluegrass and country rock without the Billy Ray Cyrus kitsch. Whatever, it is, it's attracting groups of students, older male country fans and the curious bystander to break out the plaid and enjoy the... more

Dakota Tavern is a charming but small live music venue that serves food. I went there for their Bluegrass Brunch. The group performing was very entertaining. The staff is friendly and accommodating. The brunch, however, favored quantity over quality. Admittedly, at $14.00 for all you can eat fruit, scrambled eggs, sausage, home fries and pancakes, perhaps your expectations shouldn't be too... more

Headed here on a date night, after Khao San Road(which was, as expected, good but nothing special). The cover was $10. The place was completely packed, and had an electric atmosphere. The country music bands that played were amazing, and had the crowd groovin to their tunes. Pretty sure my date and I were the youngest ones here, and we were the only 20-somethings but we had a fantastic time,... more

Dark interiors, country style décor, low lighting, a huge crowd and live music greet you as you enter the portals of The Dakota Tavern. Gorge on lip smacking mac and cheese, crunchy red cabbage, spiced nuts and cherry tomato salad, and fish served on tacos with cabbage and lime, as you listen to some fine country music. On their famous brunch days, your platter is lined up with unlimited food:... more
