Sauce, Danforth
10 people recommendvia r/askTO10 comments cited below
What people say, in short
Sauce on the Danforth is a bar people recommend for its cozy, artsy feel, with plush bench seating, a back patio and live music. Two commenters call it a fun, great-vibe spot and one says it is a strong choice for a first date, while another likens its atmosphere to a noir novel in a good way. It sits east of the central core, and one patron feels it is too polished to be considered a dive.
