We had never been to Myth in all of the years we have lived in the
area, and for some reason I was avoiding it, the ambience was not all
that appealing to me.
So the Mrs. and I decided to give it a try as we noticed they had a
few seats at street level available while most all of the other
restaurants were somewhat full. (Maybe there was good reason for
this?)
We were met by the hostess and promptly seated.
There appeared to be plenty of wait staff standing around in black T
shirts milling about.
For the first few minutes we had a couple of staff looking over to our
table and seeing that we were just sitting there. Now remember, I said
that the place was not that busy.
After 12 minutes, a young fellow comes up to our table, says nothing,
and places 2 water glasses on the table, fills them, and walks away.
Now this is starting to get the hair on my back raised so I says to
the Mrs., they have 5 minutes and we are getting out of here.
Well, at about the 5 minute mark, we get asked if we want drinks and
the Mrs. immediately orders a Martini, Halcyon I think it was. I
really wanted to leave but the Mrs. wants to try this drink so I ask
what's on draft and order a Stella.
The drinks appeared to take forever, and they did.
As I was sitting there, I notice our waiter (the one who took our
order and not delivered) walking out the front door to go to a store
on the Danforth. I couldn't understand this as we had waited a while
and I pointed it out to the Mrs. as I couldn't believe it.
Finally, we flagged down another waiter to pick up our drinks at the
bar. They were delivered a couple of minutes later.
And get this.... the Mrs. got her drink just fine. The draft I asked
for, came in a bottle with no glass.
Paid for the drinks, told the waiter we had to leave and left.
Never to return.
Turned this into a positive and walked across the street to Omonia.
