The Chase

Jack's Astor on Sankofa is a great option for those in the city center who want to enjoy happy hour or spend time with family and friends in a relaxed atmosphere, with sports on TV and themed drinks for each season (currently featuring a Christmas menu). The restaurant is a good size, with tables of all sizes and bar service. Entry is usually quick, but if you're planning to go at night, especially at this time of year, it's advisable to make a reservation. The menu doesn't have many options, but a recommendation is to order the poutine with lobster, as it's simply incredible. For customers with disabilities and reduced mobility, the restaurant has tables that accommodate walkers and wheelchairs. They also have adapted restrooms with grab bars and spring-loaded doors. The flooring throughout the premises is level, making it possible to walk around, although the number of tables makes it a little difficult. Unfortunately, they don't have a menu in Braille, but the staff is ready to assist with orders. For families with children, the place has a children's menu and baby changing facilities in the restrooms. If you are using public transport, simply get off at Sankofa; if you are driving, the building has paid parking. It's worth a visit.

We had our retirement party here for our beloved charge nurse! The staff were super nice and easy to coordinate with over email. And they were working hard to keep up with all the orders and people coming and going. The corner was perfect for mingling. I'm so grateful to them for hosting and accommodating us!

We were seated almost immediately but service could have been better. Maybe it was busy, I really couldn’t tell. The ambience was very nice and the food seemed okay. I’ll come again and I hope it’s better.
