In Toronto, King Street restaurants are defined by a subtle approach to contemporary luxury, with features that are rustic and inviting. The latest addition to the strip is Añejo. This is a modern establishment that was founded in Calgary eight years ago.
Añejo offers a variety of premium cocktails, with an emphasis on tequila as the restaurant explores different variations of the spirit to suit every taste. The menu is planned to supplement the drinking experiences with "handcrafted, regional Mexican dishes cooked to perfection."
The interior of the new King Street restaurant is definitely alluring as it features a variety of warm elements that are supercharged with modern sensibilities. Its luxurious demeanor is playfully accented by natural elements that can be authentically tied to the country that informs Añejo's cocktail and dining menu.
