A retro lounge/restaurant that, thanks to affable hosts Tim and Pam, has become known for its friendly service, great food, and some of the best bar bands in town. The funky little Orbit Room sits in the middle of Little Italy's cappuccino and cannoli cafes. When you climb the steps to the second floor bar, however, you enter another time and place. This laid-back lounge, specializing in martinis and Manhattans, opens at the 5 pm cocktail hour. Hors d'oeuvres are served nightly (try the coconut battered shrimp), and dinner ranges from Thai concoctions or basic North American fare. The tiny back patio at the second floor tree level is perfect for summer relaxing. Check in advance which nights The Dexters, their rockin' house band, is in session. An added note for music lovers: Alex Liefson, of the rock band Rush (and now a Member of the Order of Canada for contributions to the Canadian music industry) is one of the bar owners, so you never know what famous rockers will drop in and take the stage for an impromptu jam session.
