Went here with some friends for drinks and dancing. We got there just after 10pm and the live band was just going on. The band was good and got a few people dancing but it was a few because the place was dead! Lol And I think us later 20s kids were the youngest ones there. It was an older crowd this night. Aside from the lack of people in the joint putting a slight damper on the atmosphere the service was great and the food and drinks were yummy. My favorite part was that that they have variety seating, tables, couches and a patio outside with gas firepits. Our group enjoyed this area outside where it also has it’s own dedicated bar. Only downfall is the sound from the band lacks bass and therefore lacks quality. I gave it three stars for this one visit but the venue is new so it just needs some little improvements and the rating would go up immensely. And for the crowd it seemed like we were partying with our parents. Lol. A good time nonetheless. :)

I loved the patio at this place. The fire pits are a big bonus for all those chilly evenings. The indoors is also pretty chic. They have recently renovated the whole place. The food is quite decent too. The Mexican rolls and the duo dip were quite addictive. The spinach dip was really delicious. We also tried the sliders and I think $ 10 for three sliders is good value for money. Definitely worth a try. I ordered an the Envy and it was delicious. They have a pretty good variety of drinks. We also got to listen to the excellent live music while munching on some really tasty food. All in all we had a really fun evening. PS: They also have a really good deal on right now. $ 20 for two appetizers and two drinks.

I went here on Saturday night of Canada day weekend with some friends. We were trying to get there before 10 for their Saturday deal: 2 drinks and 2 appetizers for $ 20(how amazing, right!). Taking two cars, our friends got there at about 5 minutes to ten and were told they couldn’t get the deal because the system wouldn’t process it. Boo. Next time. We arrived seven minutes later and each had to pay $ 7 cover. The place was empty except for my friends and two other people. I was not impressed. On to what I did like: Our server. She was really great and helped make the night much more enjoyable. She completely understood how we wanted our bills split and I definitely appreciated that. The food. My boyfriend and I had the sliders and they were JUST as good as when we had them at Unilocal’s Haus Party. Excellent. The fire places!!! It was supposed to thunderstorm but it didn’t and it was a perfect night to sit outside with friends. The live band was also excellent, we enjoyed the music. To drink I tried the Alabama Slammer and I didn’t love it. It needed some lemon juice and carbonation to make it taste okay to me. After that I had two or three beers. The bill between my boyfriend and I only came to $ 50! I was really happy with that. I like the relaxing vibe of this place and definitely love the outdoor patio. The only thing that would make it better is if it were a little more full. There were probably only 30 – 40 people there that night. I would definitely go again.

Hold on to your seats Vaughan, you’ve got one of the coolest live music venues right under your noses and you wouldn’t have known it(had it not been for their huge signage sitting out on Hwy 7). Located in the Interchange 30(AMC) plaza near Ivy and Luxy Nightclubs and above Wendel Clark’s Classic Grill & Sports Lounge, it has replaced it’s long standing predecessor — Berlin Nightclub. While Berlin might have been known as the première place in Vaughan for cougars to prowl and local 40 somethings to get their grind-on(shudder). Musiqhäus is THE place in Vaughan for premium cocktails, delectable appetizers and various other bites, but most importantly — Live music. All nicely packaged in a gorgeous, modern venue. The theme of the venue inside pays tribute to musical legends from various eras such as Jimi Hendrix and David Bowie. The colour theme is dark and sexy(mostly red and black) but the splashes of white on the VIP and patio leather chairs definitely bring that modern lounge feel to mind. The sound system inside is incredible and the resident tech guy/Dj has a great eclectic music library. I was loving the deep house tracks he was tossing out there, as well as some old Euro faves(you can’t be in Woodbridge without hearing a little Euro). But the sound from the DJ booth pales in comparison to the sound quality once a band takes to the stage and begins belting out faves! The food here is excellent! I was able to sample: Calamari, tempura shrimp, Mexican spring rolls, quesadillas, sweet potato fries and their killer sliders. Paired with one of the most diverse cocktail menu’s north of Steeles it’s got everything you could want for a night out — plus I believe they are still offering 2 cocktails and 2 appetizers between 8−10PM for only $ 20! My ONLY item of constructive criticism has to do with the cocktail menu being a tad fruit drink heavy. If I could see a solid Manhattan, Old Fashioned and a Sazerac on the menu(or maybe some cocktails with egg whites, elderberry or toasted rosemary) I’d be in cocktail heaven. Still, I would recommend checking this place out with friends any time this summer as the one X-factor I have yet to mention is their killer roof-top patio! I would tell you more about it, but I suggest you check it out this summer for yourself!

I had so much fun here & can’t wait to be back again. My hubby and I loved the atmosphere and it would be a great spot to hang out w/some friends on a Friday/weekend. I loved the fire pits outside(to keep us warm when it got cold). I imagine it would get quite busy especially the patio area. The live band was absolutely AMAZING. We were actually in the patio and I did not even realize it was the live band that was performing. That was how talented and good they were. It was nice to sit on the beautiful white couches and enjoy the music. So luxe! It just reminds me of the nice wedding venue lounge areas :) The staff was excellent & very attentive(especially Dorota?). The drinks were great. I’m not that much of a drinker but they were definitely generous with the alcohol. Also liked the food there. Can’t wait to be back with some friends. The area has developed so much since my last visit.
