About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for creative cocktails
  • Neighbourhood gem
Coach House, 2x James Beard Award and Jean Banchet Award-nominated Chef Zubair's Mohajir’s latest venture, is a Tasting Menu experience featuring a heavy dose of South Indian flavors whilst avoiding direct tradition. Coach House is located in the rear of Lilac Tiger's street food location, on Division St.

Our 7-course Tasting Menu rotates seasonally, and is featured on Friday and Saturday nights at 5:45pm and 8:30pm; this experience gives insight into the culinary traditions that Chef Zubair was raised with, reimagined through a modern lens.

Your experience can be supplemented with one of our thoughtfully-curated wine and cocktail pairings, or you and your guests can select your sipper from our worldly wine list, elegant cocktails, and vibrant and non-alcoholic signature drinks.

    Seats at the counter provided a truly one of a kind experience, allowing a front row view to the creation of each course as well as open dialog with chef and his team. The service was top notch and the meal is not one I will forget anytime soon.

    The food was incredible. Every dish was different and surprising. My spouse is vegetarian and was blown away by the veggie options. The best baklava I’ve ever had. They change the menu every quarter so we’ll definitely be back!!

    The entire menu is well thought out from each dish to the drink pairing. The service is very attentive and the entire experience was very intimate which gave an unexpected community feel.

    What a treat to dine at a restaurant where the chefs and front of house staff are passionate about what they do and eager to share their enthusiasm - and delicious creations - with you. Perfect night out.

    We had dinner and wine pairings for 4. Compared to prior visits, the courses were of varying quality - some of the courses were flavorful and memorable, while some missed the mark. Similarly, the first and last wine pairings were terrific, as was the melon-infused cocktail, while the intervening wine pairings fell flat. The orange wine in particular should be permanently retired. Chef spoke for only a minute this time, while in the past he shared more of his personal life story and journey, including more about each course. All in all, Chef has enormous talent but did not lean in with as much passion as we have enjoyed in the past.

    Tasting menu and wine pairings - loved the duck, scallop and crab and enjoyed all the drinks that went along with the experience. Adored the bit by the sous chef engaging us with the nostalgic theme throughout the evening. Wonderful night.
