Very nice restaurant for steak fine dinner. We made a reservation at 6:45pm two days ago and were seated immediately upon arrival. The waitress was very nice, welcoming and helpful. We asked for suggestions of red wine to go with our steak dinner. She suggested local red wine, which turned out very good. We ordered four prime ribs, three medium rare and one medium, and the cooking was just good. The meat was very tendered and juicy. It was a very nice dinning experience. For a bottle of red wine, two appetizers, and four prime rids, we only paid less than $400. Highly recommended.

Table for 8 and tried the 8oz sirloin with a lobster, it was great! Lobster was a bit on the smaller portion, but was flavourful. Steak was cooked well and tender. Got to try three different dessert. Crème brûlée, definitely the go to. The cheesecake, probably skip this. The miller cake, can be for 2-3 people and worth it. Great service and definitely a solid consistent chain restaurant.

I've been to two other downtown locations of The Keg (Esplanade & KIng West), this is hands down by far the best out of the three both in terms of food and service. Food: I got the 18oz prime rib, it was juicy (unlike the dry one I got at the Esplanade location). As usual, the highlights of the meal were the bread and the dessert (got the Billy Miner pie). Service: I found table maintenance to be a real issue at the two other locations but Ted was so on top of it. He cleared our wine glasses as soon as we told them we're not ordering wine. He cleared all our plates and even crumbed our table before dropping dessert menus. Our water carafe was never empty. Dessert plate was cleared before the bills were brought. These are small little details that were absent from my visits in the two other locations. Bravo Ted. While I do find The Keg to be a bit pricey for my spending habits, this is the first time where I feel like I'm getting good value from both the food and service.

I recently dined alone at this location of The Keg Steakhouse on York Street. My life partner and I have visited this place over the years. My server Chantal recognized me and asked about my partner. I mentioned that he had passed suddenly in April of this year 2025. I was returning by myself as part of a tribute to him soon as this was the first time I was dining without him. The meal was excellent. My obligatory baseball steak was cooked to perfection. Upon presenting my bill to me I noted that there was a $0.00 balance. I was very moved by this kind gesture on the part of my server and The Keg Steakhouse on York Street. Much appreciated ☺️

The Keg never disappoints, and today was no exception. We arrived on a very cold day in Toronto, and were graciously welcomed at the bar by Dianna and Emma. They were incredibly kind, courteous, and genuine, all the things you want in a server. Besides the five star service we received, the food was absolutely outstanding, and a real hit. Thank you, Dianna and Emma, for the amazing service and a truly memorable experience. -Mark

Location is fantastic, and the restaurant is clean and well-maintained with excellent service. The washrooms are several floors up, so if you have mobility issues, you may have difficulty accessing them. Food was average. Butter chicken was much too sweet, and with the combo I chose (3), it contained only four pieces of chicken. The lamb Vidaloo was very spicy, but a mango drink made it tolerable. I heard that the buffet was good, so I will try it next to confirm.

I ordered dine in for one person which was costly. The butter chicken tasted too suited and I expected tangy. The pulao rice was great. The saag paneer was also a nice addition. The butter naan was just right. Overall, I would benefit from a lunch buffet at a fraction of the cost. Service was attentive and friendly.

Can’t believe I’ve never reviewed this place - I've been coming here since university! The warm, hardworking family that runs it still delivers incredible service and consistently delicious food! It’s true comfort food - flavourful, well-prepared, and full of favourites. During the pandemic, they generously made meals for medical staff, showing just how much they are invested in their community and the care and responsibility that comes with it. A true Queen Street West staple and one of the best Indian restaurants in the city. Once you're a customer, you're one for life!

A true gem in the heart of downtown Toronto. Beautiful restaurant and wonderful staff. I highly recommend trying the veggie thali dish if you are new to Indian food. It’s a great way to begin exploring this culinary treasure and it’s many aromatic flavours! 🥘🌱😋
Julie Kerri - a month ago

The place offers some great main course options, and I really enjoyed the food overall. It’s comforting, full of flavor, and truly satisfying. The breads were soft and fresh, and the portion sizes for the main course were just right. Overall, I had a wonderful experience and would definitely come back!

Volos Greek Cuisine is one of my favorite downtown spots in Toronto for having a dinner that will surely impress your date, business partner or family. The atmosphere is a mix of traditional Greek styling with a modern twist, the Volos is easily one of my favorite spots in downtown Toronto. If you need to impress a date or client, this is the place. The decor is a great mix of modern and traditional, and the service is excellent. ​The food is outstanding—the steak was cooked to perfection, and the grilled octopus was fantastic. However, the service logistics could be better. Many dishes are meant for sharing, yet we were given regular spoons instead of proper serving utensils. Also, the saganaki needs a much larger portion of bread to go with it!

I was craving seafood and then found this restaurant. The warm seafood salad just became my favorite dish. Every bites of that was well balanced. Thanks for this BOH team to make the best seafood meal. I will definitely recommend my friends to visiting.

If I had to describe this restaurant in one word, it would be - mediocre. We went for dinner a couple of weeks back. The hostess was very pleasant and had us seated. Good start. Now for the not so good Volos is priced as a higher end restaurant. The first impression one gets is the decor. We were seated near the kitchen. Where it was quite ordinary. The ceiling was open and you could see the vents and wiring. Average looking chairs. With the prices Volos charges, decor should be a factor. The biggest disappointment was our server. We planned to share several appetizers rather than ordering mains. Her face visibly fell when she heard that. We ended up ordering over 5 appetizers over the course of the evening, so it wasn't a cheap evening. Plus dessert. However, our server never stopped by after taking our initial drink and dinner order. So much so that we had to ask another server to get us more drinks. At which she magically reappeared at our table with the drinks. The food itself was also mediocre. Pantheon, in the Danforth, is so much better. For the prices they charge, you are much better off going to other $$$ restaurants in the downtown area.

I recently visited Volo’s Greek Restaurant with my family for a birthday celebration, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish. The service was outstanding — the staff was attentive, friendly, and made us feel so welcome. The food was absolutely amazing — every dish was full of flavor and made with the freshest ingredients. You can truly taste the quality in every bite. From the appetizers to the main course, everything was served beautifully and on time. We had such a lovely time, and I’m already looking forward to coming back. Highly recommend Volos for anyone looking for authentic Greek food.

It’s a nice place for dining. The service was quick and appropriate. The food quality was great. But, I’d like to see more Mediterranean options.

I'll just say this: I love everything about this place! This was my 2nd time here and even though I'm not a vegetarian I've loved everything on the menu here so far. The meet like dishes tastes amazing!! 100% recommend!! Price is super fair. Great venue! Very nice for date nights or bigger group gatherings ❤
Maral Vafaie - a week ago

One of my favourite vegetarian places. The atmosphere is so nice and the food presentation is beautiful. The maki rolls are very delicious and mimic real sushi pretty well. The only unfortunate thing is the prices they charge, why am I paying the same amount for a roll with watermelon and avocado as I would for one with fish
Rajvi Chavada - a month ago

As a someone who isn’t a fan of sushi or vegetables, this place is now on my go-to list! The food was full of flavour, the textures were fantastic. Our server was patient while I debated over choices, and explained everything well. A great space for a great experience :)

Love Planta Queen! Been here multiple times and have never had a bad experience or food! My husband has an onion allergy and they were so accommodating to his allergy. Service is always good and friendly! And of course the food is delicious!

The Food was Amazing. We ordered Dragon Sushi and it was really good. Bang Bang broccoli was heavy but again really good in taste. I think the food was good for the price so is quantity. Atmosphere - 5 star Service - Waitress and Staff were really good but their computer system were down (Not blaming restaurant) but it made little chaos in order. There were nice enough to provide dessert on the house. One thing to note here is that: they do not allowed cakes from outside specially if it is not Vegan. If you are going for birthday celebrations maybe call them and ask them which cake they will be okay with.

Jasmine was our server and she was attentive and knowledgeable. One person in our party was a celiac and everything for them was gluten free with no issues. The wine was awesome and the food was amazing. It was a nice change to have such a positive restaurant experience these days. Well done! Will be back!

What a lovely restaurant and staff. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted warmly by the friendly staff. The staff was chatty and offered suggestions on the dinner options. This was an early Christmas gift for my niece - dinner and the ballet, and Little Anthony’s delicious food and wonderful staff helped create a lasting memory.

Honestly surprised this place was not more busy! The food and service was fantastic. Our server Iana was friendly and all of our food came out in a timely manner and was done to perfection. Will definitely be back! Highly recommend the oysters and the tuna tartar.

Im surprised by some of the reviews but all I can do is report on what I experienced. Business dinner on a rainy weeknight. Maybe half full. Very good service and friendly staff. I thought the wine and food was all well above average. Apps were a bit pricey but the beet salad was delish. Lamb chops were plentiful and properly cooked. Seafood risotto was large and tasty. Branzino was also delicious. Food was hot. Mains were decently priced (for Toronto). Atmosphere was good for a business meeting but there were couples on dates too. Id go again for sure.
Peter Berczi - a week ago

The Verdict: Is it worth it? ​Yes, especially for groups or dates. The atmosphere is upscale yet quiet enough for real conversation, which is a rare find in the core. ​Quick Highlights ​The Food: High quality and consistently good. ​Value: Mains: Reasonably priced for the quality/location (typically $30–$50 range). ​Appetizers: On the pricier side for the portion size. ​Atmosphere: Chic and comfortable. It’s a "low-noise" environment, making it an excellent choice for a romantic evening or a business dinner where you actually need to hear each other. ​The Service Experience: ​The service is a bit of a mixed bag. While the staff is friendly, you might encounter the "Upsell": Some servers can be quite aggressive in pushing the most expensive specials or premium wine pairings (the "used car salesperson" vibe). ​Attentiveness: Inconsistent. You might find yourself waiting for a refill or the check while the server is busy with the "hard sell" at another table. ​The Parking Trap: Being at Richmond and York, nearby lot prices are notoriously high (often $25–$35 for a few hours). ​Pro Tip: If you want to save on parking, check the Green P at Nathan Phillips Square (110 Queen St W). It’s about a 5-minute walk but can save you $10–$15 compared to the private lots immediately adjacent to the restaurant.

Had a lovely experience from start to finish at the Downtown Toronto location. All of the servers were friendly and helpful. We had the pleasure of having Tapash and he was welcoming and kind. The menu is extensive with steakhouse fare, make sure to arrive hungry as you’ll want to order everything! I was torn between steak & seafood so I had both. The sides are very generous portions! This is a nice place to celebrate special occasions as the staff are extremely accommodating. Had a 10/10 evening. Highly recommend.

We recently took part in the Summerlicious menu at Ruth’s Chris, and it absolutely did not disappoint. Some of us went for the steak, others for the chicken—and both dishes were truly out of this world. The garlic crust on the steak was the perfect finishing touch and made it unforgettable. What really elevated the experience was the exceptional service provided by Mike. He was not only courteous and professional, but also added a fun touch with some great one-liner jokes that kept the atmosphere relaxed and enjoyable. Highly recommend giving it a go—you won’t be disappointed!

Fantastic experience! Our server Selena was amazing friendly, attentive, and made the night feel special. The food was outstanding; you can hear it sizzling before it even reaches the table. Everything came out hot, fresh, and quick. Dessert was beautifully presented and the perfect ending. We’ll definitely be back and asking for Selena! 10/10 experience thank you!!

We had an absolutely wonderful dining experience at Ruth’s Chris Steak House at the Hilton in downtown Toronto. From start to finish, our server Angelina truly made the evening exceptional. She impressed us right away with her knowledge of the menu and thoughtful suggestions, which showed she really knew her stuff. Beyond that, her friendliness and genuine kindness stood out, she made us feel comfortable and welcome from the moment we sat down. Angelina connected with us so easily that we felt relaxed and at home, which made the experience even more special. Throughout the meal, she checked in on us at just the right moments to make sure everything was perfect, without ever being intrusive. Her warm personality, attention to detail, and caring approach elevated the entire evening. The food was, of course, fantastic, but it was Angelina who truly made this experience memorable. She was fabulous, and thanks to her, this was one of the best dining experiences we’ve had. We’ll definitely be back!

Came here for my birthday, was not disappointed! We particularly love the scallops and their salmon here, melts in your mouth, feels really fresh and taste quite a bit nicer than your average sushi place. And of course with great quality and service comes a greater price tag, more on the pricier side, but not outrageously expensive. We sat on the floating sushi boat bar, and the quality of the sushi is still very good, despite not being made right out from the kitchen, still tasted fresh. Also tried the Udon and wasn’t disappointed, the broth especially smells really nice. Would definitely come back on special occasions!

The service and quality of the food we received was great. It was a little on the pricier side but worth it. The experience was great especially seeing their rotating sushi boat system. I would highly recommend this place if you want fast service and quality food.
Janice J - 7 years ago

Quite an expensive place. But it’s a fun experience to sit around a turning table full of boats on water carrying sushi. They also have a menu where you can order more expensive items like the fatty tuna. The fatty tuna sushi is quite nice, but the sashimi is not that fat. Meaning it’s a lower quality cut of the tuna.
Wen Z - 6 years ago

Fun experience with decent sushi but lacking in that wow factor for the price. You are paying a premium for the experience of having one of, if not, the only conveyor belt boat sushi restaurant experiences in Toronto. Service was satisfactory and attentive but expected for the price. Sushi variety was average with some exotic options and a range of drink and sake selections at all price points. Each plate is between $4.50 to $8.50 for two pieces, on average. Higher priced items like uni are also available. The uni was tasty enough but not from Japanese waters. I would return annually for the floating boat (Fune) experience, not for the price or quality of fish.
Bryan Crisp - 6 years ago

For sushi that's high quality and consistently good, come here. The floating sushi bar is cool and the selection that comes around is great. And if you want something that doesn't float on by, just order it off the menu. Service here has always been great during all my visits. The waitresses are prompt and attentive and the food comes out quickly. Prices here are reasonable too considering the quality you're getting. This isn't your all-you-can-eat quality here. Overall, one of the best sushi options in the city in my opinion. And considering this place has been around since the early 90s, others must think so too.

Needed to try poutine on my trip to Toronto and was given only one recommendation.. Smoke's. The menu is excellent with choices for everyone. We got vegetarian and meat options as well as the original poutine. Service was decent enough and friendly. This location isn't very accessible friendly or stroller friendly but we made it work. Overall a nice experience.
Preston p - 2 months ago

Quite disappointed, I bought the traditional poutine (take out) only to find out when I open it that there’s only a few pieces of cheese inside. So basically paying $13 for fries.. not what I thought the famous Smoke’s Poutinerie would be stinge out on

Kids love the word "aura" these days, and when my dad asked me what it means I told him "think Soho House 2010-2014." That confused him more but I like messing with my dad. Forreal though, the run Soho House had can only be rivaled by 2011-2015 Whole Foods. You really had to be there… but like any other prime, Father Time always catches up. I was set to do a full rise and fall piece on the Soho House right here on Yelp but in my research, I stumbled upon an article by Lydia Moynihan in the NY Post and she nailed it. I really didn't have much to add so go over and read that if you have a sec. Shoutout to Lydia. Instead, I'll just recap our experience here like any other boring Yelp Review. We came to this Toronto location before the Taylor Swift concert, and I was pleasantly surprised. It felt like prime Soho House. A beautiful, discrete brick building with an old school interior. Whoever designed this one needs a raise. I'm so tired of the cookie cutter half-assed modern architecture. The ones in LA and NY now feel like it is just a bunch of dorks trying to be seen by God knows who. There is no soul in those locations. We grabbed a drink in the lobby and went upstairs for our 5pm dinner. I domed a couple of negronis and we split a margherita pizza and a bottle of pinot noir before our mains arrived. I got the rigatoni, per the waitresses recommendation because she had a thick Italian accent. Big truss. She wasn't lying either, that rigatoni went crazy. I took like 30 pictures before a staff member came over and said no pictures, as I didn't know that was still a rule here… please don't beat me up. We closed dinner with a couple espresso martinis before setting off on foot to go see Big Tay put on a show. She really did her thing. Thank you Soho House Toronto, for giving me a taste of what the Soho House used to be in the states. IG @jnov_ Tiktok @jnov_reviews

We created some flowers and peach still life with my business The Moody Blooms for an Amazon studios event “A league of their own” in the upstairs bar. Was a beautiful intimate space, with historic details. The staff were very helpful.

Excellent spot with great vibes for a meeting or for casual hang with friends (as long as your friends have membership to Soho House IYKYK 😁). We had lunch at the restaurant, and the food was delicious, service impeccable. They also have a great selection of food for our vegetarian and gluten-free friends. The roasted salmon was seasoned well, and most importantly had crispy skin - yum! My colleague was very pleased with his zza, by the look on his face. Delicious and a well-cooked undercarriage! We’ll definitely be back if our friend invites us to hangout there again! 😁

While the food and location are great, the service is not up the required level. I came with my daughter and specifically requested a non spicy meal. I ended up with spicy mayo and pepper covered veggies. Definitely no communication has been made to the kitchen to fulfill my need. Disappointing indeed.

My wife has been a member of the Soho house Toronto for 2 years now and I always enjoy visiting with her as a guest! Today was a fabulous brunch with friends for a birthday. We had the pleasure of being served by Karen, who was absolutely fantastic. Her attention to the table was diligent and swift. The food... WOW! I enjoyed the cold buffet, with fruit, cold cuts and an assortment of dishes. Followed by the most amazing fried chicken, macaroni and back bacon. My wife always indulges in the salmon, seafood and oysters. While my toddler ate more selection than I could keep track of. The freshly made crepes at the end, sealed my stomach with a kiss! I can’t wait to come back! Highly recommend anyone that’s considering becoming a member!!! UPDATE!!! Just spent New Year’s Eve 2020(Phantom of the Opera theme) with our friends on the first floor. Photo booth, live singing and performances!!! The “2020 vision” drink was amazing and the music was on point ALL NIGHT!!! We had the most amazing “ring in the new year” experience!
