AAA Bar is bringing barbecue to Leslieville
Adelaide East’s Texas-style barbecue joint AAA Bar is opening up a little sister saloon in Leslieville in the space previously occupied by the short-lived Hummingbird Caribbean. Co-owner Racquel Youtzy (who also operates Riverdale’s Mr. Ciao with her partner Tiz Pivetta) says to expect more of the same, just in a much smaller space, and with wine on tap. “It’s more of a family neighbourhood,” says Youtzy. “But we aren’t going to do anything different—we’re always kid-friendly.” The (also adult-friendly) bar will offer the same drink specials as the Adelaide location: a dollar-an-ounce wine, three-dollar tequila shots and five-dollar Triple A draught. Youtzy is hoping to have it open by the end of February.

“Bringing”…..TL you do remember naming Leslieville pumps BBQ one of the top sandwiches last year? Well done you!
I didn’t think they allowed Texas out of the state.
why bother with AAA and it’s tiny portions and terrible hipster service. In Leslieville,and anywhere else in the city actually, the best BBQ is AFT
West: 7
East: 2
Aft is in Riverside. :) But I agree, its great.
I’ve always found the hipster servers at Triple A to be very friendly. Maybe you went on a bad night.
Went to AAA on Adelaide a year ago. They were out of ribs (funny, right?) so I had chicken and waffles and wings. It was all astonishingly bad. And too expensive. That said, the servers were very friendly, as other commenters have pointed out. Never went back.
