Some places in Toronto revel in the "I don't try too hard" attitude that all the cool kids have. The Reservoir Lounge is not that place. Located a few steps down from street level, this sub-basement space tries to be hip and cozy with exposed brick, candlelight and a well curated musical lineup. It is one of the best spots in the city to enjoy a cocktail while listening to live jazz, blues and swing music. The vibe is part New York City, part New Orleans, while still being all Toronto. Cocktails and martinis are in the $10 range, which sadly, is very reasonable for Toronto. And for those looking for a bit more sustenance, the menu offers a selection of tapas, sandwiches and pizzas, and the kitchen's open until 2 a.m.
