According to the Toronto Star, “Great
food, great jazz and incredible atmosphere!! Great place to spend time your significant
other.” While Tripadvisor.com said,
“…one of the finest overall dining experiences I’ve ever had. I tip my hat to you, Boiler room restaurant
House!”
The Boiler House is located inside Toronto's
Historic Distillery District at 18 Tank House Lane, about 150 feet from the
movie-famous iron gates. Its location
was one of the reasons why I love this place.
I started this review with in a very confident way as the Toronto
and Tripadvisor.com were also very confident in saying that the place is
really great. I have a lot to say about The Boiler House and most of them are
in their favor. At first it wasn’t
exactly the best dining I prefer but maybe subconsciously I fell in love with
the place when I started going there frequently, I schedule meetings there more
often and dine there for no reason at all. Not only me but this place is
actually the number one stop, a meeting, dining, and party destination.

I just love the feel and the vibe of the place, the
atmosphere was very welcoming. There are
a lot of things going on in this place but it was never tiring in the
eyes. There is this towering 22-foot wine
rack, the jazz trio perched overhead, or the sultry projected image of a woman
seemingly emerging from the century old-brick walls.
I especially like the way the place was constructed, the raw
wooden beams and planks reclaimed from the original Gooderham and Worts
Distillery predominate - from the floors and booths to the massive bar and
25-foot ceilings. You can really feel
its 100 years of existence.
Yes, this place has been existing for 100 years; according
to their official website, The Boiler House was the main source of energy for
The Distillery. The coal-fired boilers are now long gone but the energy remains
the same. This is where the Distillery's heart beats.
The site also says, Two "Gotham City" style,
heritage alcohol pasteurizing tanks perch up high, are left over from the
Distillery's days as Ontario's largest sprits exporter. Today they're beautiful
pieces of art and help set the tone of "cool industrial chic".
Another thing I like about this fine-dinning place is
because they leave you with many choices.
You can choose an upstairs perch overlooking the popular bar, a table or
booth on the lower level, or one of the "snog booths", a
pedestal-style enclosure that frames a romantic dinner for two. This is a very romantic and intimate place
for lovers and a perfect quiet place for meetings and businesses.
