Step inside Reposado Toronto

Located between Queen and Dundas on Ossington, Reposado Toronto is easy to find if you look down along the sidewalk at night as a bat logo shines from a spotlight at the front door. Made me smirk, Batman styles.

This Ossington restaurant and bar should be filed in the “don’t judge a book by its cover” chapter. The exterior doesn’t scream at you but once inside the interior offers a fantastic ambiance featuring accents from a Quebecois church and the glimmer and glow of mood lights.

Skip through the front door of the popular Mexican bar in Toronto and you’ll find exposed brick walls, a long narrow bar and the perfect pitch of subdued romantic lighting. There are a smattering of stools to hop up at the bar and four top tables near the front of the room.

It’s not your typical Mexican-themed Bar. You won’t find tacky sombreros, Day of the Dead skulls or cartoon tacos here. Reposado Bar is where tequila connoisseurs, Mexican snack lovers and live music fans come to kick back and relax.
