    Notch 8 moved happy hour so that it ends at 5 pm. For those of us who work downtown, it used to be a fantastic place to enjoy live music and a solid happy hour until at least 530 (it may have been up to 6 pm at one point). As a result of this, two glasses of wine and a side of fries, with poor ambience (no doubt due to happy hour time change) set us back $60 with tip and an incentive to never return.

    Our brunch was wonderful but found the a/c was a little too cold which made the food go cold very quickly. The food tasted very good and great selection but as I said, the hot buffet needs to be hotter. Our server Pedro was wonderful!!! The washroom needs some work done to it. Such as the toilet keeps flushing while one is one it.

    This was my first time at Notch8. Maybe the only issue was that the seats weren't comfortable, but overall, it met my expectations.

    My girlfriend and I attended for the one-year anniversary of our meeting, and they made the night so special. The service was a great mix of informative, subtle, and attentive. They even brought us a very well-presented, delicious dessert at the end of the night. Our wounderful dining started with the Beef carpaccio, there were so many flavour experiences on top of the beef. The Mains were exceptional, the pan roasted Pork chop was nicely paired with morels and the Char Sui Sable fish was bold but cooked so perfectly, for the often difficult thin slice of whitefish. Notch8 made the night such a great experience, thank you.

    We had Sunday brunch at Notch 8 today. Our server was wonderful, however the concierge who checked us in was not. We arrived at 1109 am for an 1115 reservation and were very curtly advised that we could not be seated until our reservation time. It was evident that there were many available tables - when we noted this he responded that the kitchen wasn’t ready This also shouldn’t have been an issue - when I noted that we just wanted to sit down - he finally acquiesced - but rudely noted we could not get any food until our reservation time. This was not an issue for us - he could have communicated that message more politely.

    We visited Notch8 for cocktails on Saturday night and returned the next day for our 11:15 AM Sunday brunch reservation. The brunch experience felt a bit disorganized at first-the staff asked about our reservation several times, and we waited about 10 minutes before being seated. From my experience, Notch8 tends to be very busy during the first hour to hour and a half after their brunch buffet begins. If possible, I recommend arriving after 12 PM to avoid the rush. Alternatively, you can enjoy a leisurely start-sip your morning tea or coffee, chat, and take your time exploring the buffet. I promise the atmosphere and service improve significantly after noon. The Saturday night cocktail experience was fantastic-Notch8’s late-night vibe is vibrant and inviting, with live music and a great atmosphere that’s perfect for catching up with friends and chatting the night away. Thank you, Notch8, for both the wonderful brunch and the memorable cocktail night. I’m already looking forward to my next visit in June!

    Delicious food! I had the schnitzel, and we shared the charcuterie board, beef carpaccio, and pull apart bread service. Camy is a charming server!

    The power bowl entree was very small, more like an appetizer with not very much in it. Definitely fell short of expectation for what was charged. Addressed this with waiter and manager and both were very thankful and said it would be addressed with the cook. Other lunch was a Notch salad as starter and the special of butternut squash tortellini. Both dishes were fabulous and good value for the price.
