Okay, I know it’s not groundbreaking, but it is Canada, and Timmy’s hits the spot every time. Okay, yes, it’s a Canadian classic, but it really does hit the spot. We grabbed coffee and donuts more than once, and it was always affordable and reliable.Some locations had a few characters hanging around, but hey, that’s city life. Still totally worth it for the iced coffee and old-fashioned donuts.

Where sophistication meets ingenuity. Only Tim’s I have been to that serves a croissant with the lower half wrapped in paper, highly sophisticated activities indeed. Dare I say superior to other nearby franchisees. Also Tim’s is large and clean.

Went for drinks with a few of people. You pay for the atmosphere here. It is pretty pricey. Drinks costing about $24 and were average to below average for that regardless of price. . The restaurant itself is stunning with panoramic views of the Toronto Skyline high on the 54th floor. service was impeccable overall great atmosphere and a nice place to lounge or go on a date

Our recent dining experience at Canoe was exceptional. We began the evening in the bar area for cocktails before being escorted to the main dining room, where we were seated at a window table offering remarkable views of downtown Toronto. The cuisine was both delicious and artfully presented. Our group commenced the meal with appetizers of burrata, beet salad and warm sourdough bread with butter. All of which were simply exquisite. For the main course, we selected the tuna and the lamb. These dishes were elegantly plated, with the exceptional taste serving as the only true rival to their visual appeal. To accompany our entrées, we enjoyed the pommes frites served with truffle mayonnaise, which was a superb complement to our meal. Dessert offered a perfect conclusion, with our selections including the cheese plate, white chocolate cheesecake, and screeched tarte au sucre, paired with Port and Scotch. The service, however, was perhaps the most distinguished element of the evening, thanks to our server, Stephen. He provided an elevated dining experience from start to finish, demonstrating an impressive knowledge of food and wine. Stephen managed our requests with professionalism and remarkable ease, all while engaging us in conversation on various topics with a refreshing and engaging sense of humor. It was a memorable and truly first-class evening.

We ordered the striploin, medium rare. The cook on this was strange almost like sous vide, it didnt bring out any flavour of the steak and was very gristley - I took the rest home and pan fried it and immediately tasted way better and the gristles were not a problem either. For $90 I expected this dish to be more sucessful, the potatoe pave was not cripsy and smushed together. We enjoyed the burrata and beets appetizer, interesting presenation. I got the meringue, which looked beautiful, but the taste could be improved. We were celebrating a birthday and they gave us a card but could not even comp one of desserts. I guess you really just come here for the view (which we came on a rainy day) food did not wow for the price.

THEY KNOW WHAT THEY’RE DOING It was my Birthday and everything was Just Exquisite. Even though the vibes was just casual The Service and the Food And the View just made it feel like I’m Living my Carrie Bradshaw Fantasy. The Kale Pesto buratta with toasted Sourdough. iconic Plate. Simple, Flavorful and just Correct. It was a Play of Texture which is always a Vibe The Charcuterie board was Great, its a Charcuterie board, we were expecting cheese though. But it was really good, although i feel like Its much easier to eat the olives if they were Pitted- maybe just a Preference The OYSTER is very fresh it melts in your Mouth and its just that Good. Especially with the Sriracha sauce. White chocolate cheesecake with raspberry sorbet and Pistachio creme. SEXY! the balance between the tartness of the sorbet the cuts through the sweetness of the cheesecake and grounding the flavor with the Nuttiness of the Pistachio . CHEFS KISS All In all COMPLIMENTS TO THE CHEF IS NOT ENOUGH ITS THAT GOOD. -zowe

I had an outstanding dining experience at Canoe in the TD building. From the moment you step off the elevator, the atmosphere is elevated by breathtaking views of downtown Toronto. The setting feels refined yet welcoming, making it perfect for both business dinners and special occasions. The service was exceptional—attentive, knowledgeable, and perfectly paced. The staff took the time to explain the menu highlights and made excellent wine pairing recommendations, which really enhanced the meal. The food itself was creative and beautifully presented. Each dish showcased fresh Canadian ingredients prepared with precision and artistry. The flavors were balanced and memorable, from the appetizers to the main course.

Great atmosphere with super lively Christmas decor! Our server lady was friendly and thoughtful. Adult meal took sometime to arrive but kids meal arrived quickly which I appreciate. Lobster poutine was absolutely delicious. I also ordered wings with coconut Thai curry sauce. The wings were not just with the curry sauce on the side but also was tossed with the curry powder. Without dipping the sauce it was already flavourful which made their wings tasty and unique. We only could find the main entrance with stairs so we had to pick up the stroller to go up and down. Overall experience was absolutely wonderful, we will go there again.

We dined here after a Leafs game, it was a very pleasant experience with great food and love the atmosphere. I ordered the Chicken Parm and side salad, and while the quality of the food was genuinely good—it was delicious and well-prepared—I felt the portion size wasn't adequate, especially given the price point. ​The restaurant's standout feature was the ambiance. The Christmas decorations were lovely, and the overall vibes were nice and welcoming. Everything about the decor contributed to a great setting. ​However, the main area for improvement was the service. Our server was minimal at best and very inattentive. We barely saw him throughout the meal, and it was difficult to get drink refill. While the food was good enough to offset some of the frustration, the lack of attentiveness definitely took away from the overall experience. ​In summary, delicious food and a wonderful, festive atmosphere. I would recommend it for the quality of the meal and the decorations alone, but focus on improving the attentiveness of the wait staff and. 4/5 stars.

We came Sunday night after the Aquarium with our toddler. The staff were excellent. Karolina was on top of everything. We ordered the smoked BBQ burger, Fish Tacos and a kids pasta. The burger and tacos were actually excellent! Perfect amount of heat. We don't handle spice well but they were perfect. Caesar salad was good. And they had a sour beer, jam up the mash on the menu. Perfect end to the evening.

I feel like the food here is always hit or miss watched two people walk out with full plates left on their table, but also watched random ppl after they left steal one of the chicken tenders I guess for them it was not great, but hopefully for the tender theives it was. For me however it was pretty generally good, barring on middling bar food. Can't go wrong with it.

Every time I come here, the food is great. The ‘New York’ dish with fries is just amazing. The atmosphere and service are always good, the food is consistently delicious, the outdoor area is spacious and pet-friendly, and they even have Wi-Fi for customers.

I came here for a corporate dinner, so the bill wasn’t on me this time — and I’m glad I had the chance to give it a try. The food was really good quality with great flavors, though I was hoping for something a little more memorable for the prices on the menu. Everything was nicely prepared, but nothing really stood out or melted in my mouth — except for the white chocolate cheesecake, which was absolutely amazing! The service was exceptional. Our waiter was attentive, friendly, and knew the menu very well. The ambiance was lovely too, with nice lighting and a relaxed feel throughout the restaurant. Overall, it was an enjoyable dining experience, though I’m not sure I’d personally splurge on those prices if it were on my own tab.

Jump is one of my favourite Oliver & Bonacini restaurants and have been here countless of times. Every time I need to impress friends and families, this is the place to be. Tried to come here again for their Summerlicious and everything is spot on - from the delicious food, attentive server, and modern and stylish restaurant decor. The restaurant is beautiful, creating a welcoming and elegant atmosphere. Every dish here looks like a work of art, with its vibrant colours and artful arrangement. The roast beef sandwich was deliciously juicy and tender. My friends raved about this sandwich and enjoyed it so much. The roasted Atlantic salmon with couscous was flakey and moist. The coconut panna cotta is probably one of the best panna cotta we've ever tried. Everything is perfect with this dessert - soft velvety texture, creamy but not overly rich and just a hint of sweetness. It can be a little bit busy during lunch hour and noise levels are often higher. But it's not physically painfully loud that you can't hear your dining companions. We had a wonderful dining experience and would definitely return.

I had a fantastic experience at Jump Restaurant for their Valentine’s Day menu. The food was incredible—every dish was well-prepared and full of flavor. The cocktails were just as impressive, perfectly balanced and refreshing. The service was quick, friendly, and attentive without being overbearing, which made the whole evening even more enjoyable. Overall, it was a great night with amazing food and drinks, and I’ll definitely be coming back!

First time at Jump and we had a lovely time. The service was excellent! The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. We enjoyed cocktails to start along with the Heritage Beet Salad which was so flavorful! We ordered scallops and lamb. Both were delicious in their own right. We moved over to the bar area to end our night with a few more drinks. Highly recommend Jump!

What a gorgeous hidden spot in the heart of downtown! My wife brought me here to celebrate a key milestone in our lives and this place was just perfect. Firstly, the staff is extremely courteous and accommodate for varied requests. Starting with table selection, since we were there with our baby boy in a stroller and we requested for patio in our reservation, they took us out to the patio and asked us to choose which table would be most comfortable. We chose the perfect spot with great views and a light breeze. I had to change my baby’s diaper, so when I requested for the baby changing room, he immediately eacorted me to the accessible washroom and brought in a table to ensure I had everything with me to change the diaper. This shows how much they care about the comfort of the customers. Our server would keep checking in on us and would be quick with all our orders and requests. Secondly, the vibe and the ambience were so comforting that we lost the track of time. I highly recommend the patio, even though while you are arriving, you may think it will be noisy since it is close to Yonge Street but their patio design keeps the area quite silent. Finally, the food was excellent overall with some opportunities for improvement in their desserts - selection and their sweetness. Overall, absolutely loved it here and will be back for sure. Thank you team Jump! Keep up your amazing hospitality!

Went to Loose Moose after a Leafs game and it was a solid spot to hang out. I really liked the low lighting and overall vibe inside. It felt relaxed and lively without being overwhelming. The food was good overall, though the fries were not my favourite and did not taste like they were fried to order. Service was fine, nothing standout but no issues either. All in all, a good place to grab food and drinks and chill after a game. Would come back for the atmosphere alone.

Loose Moose / Antler Room is our go-to gathering spot downtown. The vibe is lively without being chaotic, perfect for catching up over great drinks and comfort food. We love the rotating taps, creative cocktails, and shareables—wings, nachos, and sliders never miss. Staff are upbeat and on the ball, even when it’s packed, and there’s always a good playlist (plus plenty of screens for game nights). Whether it’s a quick after-work meet or a longer hang with friends, it always feels easy, fun, and welcoming. Our downtown default—for good reason.

Visited The Loose Moose recently and had a pretty good experience overall. The place has a lively and energetic atmosphere — perfect for a casual night out with friends. The ambience was excellent, with a rustic pub-style vibe, great music, and a welcoming crowd. It’s the kind of spot that feels vibrant without being overwhelming. I ordered the Calamari and Nachos to start with. The nachos were definitely the highlight — served in a good portion size, well-layered with cheese, toppings, and accompanied by fresh dips. They were crisp, flavorful, and great for sharing. The calamari, however, was disappointing. It came out as small fried rings, and the portion felt underwhelming for the price. It lacked the texture and flavor you'd expect from a good calamari dish. Honestly, it felt like a bit of a waste of money, especially when compared to the quality of other items on the menu. That said, the service was fantastic — the staff was friendly, attentive, and quick to check in and bring everything out in good time. It really helped elevate the overall experience. If you’re going for the vibe, drinks, and pub classics like nachos or wings, Loose Moose is a solid pick. Just be mindful when trying some of the smaller appetizer items. I’d still recommend it and would definitely return to explore more of the menu.

This place is pure fun. The burger was excellent, the raspberry lemonade was elite, and the shot called “My Ex Lover’s Heart”? LISTEN. It delivered exactly the level of petty satisfaction the name promises. A great spot if you want good food, good drinks, and a little comedic therapy in liquid form.

Wed night walk-in and we decided to sit at the bar to grab a quick bite and libations. Amy at the bar was cute and friendly and we stuck with local lagers which included Canadian Lager and Moosehead Lager - both really easy to drink. For food, I got the Spicy Mexican Rice Bowl ($21.21) with Tofu tossed in Buffalo sauce - Amy's recommendation to toss the Tofu with something, and that did the magic! Big portion size, but good on flavor. I couldn't finish the plate though! Noise levels got louder as the night progressed and it was kind of difficult to have a conversation while seated at the bar. Perfect place if you are looking for some good drinks and bar eats!

Soup Nutsy is a great lunch spot in the PATH for your lunchtime soup cravings! Although a bit pricey, it is absolutely worth it. Lots of variety in every category (Seafood, Meat, Veggie). I enjoy the Vegetable cabbage soup, which is a “lighter” soup but still fills you up and has lots of flavour!! Delicious. This location is inside the TD Centre, accessible via the PATH from union station through the Royal Bank Plaza entrance. Only drawback is that it is only open during the PATH office hours and unfortunately not open on weekends.

This is the perfect spot for a quick lunch. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. I tried the chicken gumbo soup and pulled beef sandwich. The sandwich was good, but the soup was amazing! So flavourful and delicious, I’m getting the bigger size next time. I can’t wait to try their other soups, will definitely be here all winter.

Excellent soup, vegetables, carrots, celery, tomato, green haricots, oignon, and .. beef, like a minestrone italian soup or Algerian chorba or 3des .. Mediterranean style, wonderful, with any 2 top that you chose : bread, fruit, salad .. 15$ not bad.

One of the best places to eat in all of Toronto. Fresh soups made daily, with varying options from day to day. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the owner is goes above and beyond for his customers. The soups are incredible - some of the best I've ever had.

I've only tried the bisques - Jamaican Crab Bisque, Creole Bisque and Lobster Bisque, but all have been delicious. The breads are always fresh and tasty as well. Service is always cheerful. It's a little tucked away in the PATH but easy to find with use of landmarks.

My partner and I had an absolutely amazing experience! From when we got there untill the time we left. The hostess that greeted us was super friendly and kind. We sat downstairs in the dining room. The restaurant itself was absolutely gorgeous. It wasn’t super busy, so it made for a wonderful birthday celebration, we didn’t feel rushed and we didn’t have to fight the noise of a pack restaurant. . Our server was amazing. The food, phenomenal!! The quality superior.! I’d definitely recommend this wonderful restaurant for anyone looking have a nice night out. Thank you to everyone for making this special.

A pretty solid spot in the financial district. We ordered steak, a few appetizers, crab meat tacos, and sea bass—everything was fresh and well-prepared. The outdoor seating is a big plus when summer’s here. Prices are on the higher side, but overall it’s a nice experience.

Bymark Toronto – A Little Oasis in the Heart of the Financial District 🌿 I had bookmarked Bymark for a while now after seeing it pop up on an influencer’s IG reel, and finally made it there for a summer lunch — and let me just say, the location does not disappoint. Beautifully tucked between the towering TD buildings, the patio feels like a calm little escape in the middle of the concrete jungle. We got a lovely spot right by the flowers, which really added to the vibe. While I was waiting for my friend (thanks to the eternal downtown parking struggle), I did feel some subtle pressure from the staff — those lingering looks and the “when will your guest arrive” energy was slightly uncomfortable. But once we settled in, the food more than made up for it. I ordered their garden salad paired with a glass of Prosecco Rosé — such a refreshing combo for a summer afternoon. The freshly baked focaccia was warm and fluffy, and my friend’s seared yellowfin tuna was perfectly done and full of flavour. That said, there was one downside — the service felt a bit too eager. Multiple check-ins asking if we were “still working on that” or if they could clear our plates began to feel a little intrusive, especially since the patio wasn’t full and the place stays open well into the evening. A more relaxed pace would have matched the serene setting better. One suggestion — it would be great to see a few more vegan options on the menu. Right now, there are maybe two or three at best. Would I return? Absolutely. For that unbeatable downtown summer vibe alone, I’d come back — maybe next time for cocktails at golden hour 🌇.

Terrible service and food was not worth it. It was really empty on a Saturday night, maybe 3 or 4 tables in the entire restaurant at 7:30pm. Waiter tried to be pleasant but it felt like he wanted to rush the service and go home. We asked him at 8:15pm what time they closed and he said kitchen closes at 9pm. He kept spilling our bottled sparkling water all over the table (dumping the entire bottle into a glass and seemed to be rushing even though there were no other tables to serve). He brought 5 or 6 bottles of sparkling water and just kept pouring and spilling it. We ordered 2 of the grilled octopus but they gave more squid than octopus. Better to buy it at Costco and make it myself. The donut dessert was terrible. It did not look anything like the other reviews. All the donut pieces were on one side of the plate like someone didn't balance the plate properly. I didn't take a photo as it looked terrible! I had been here a few times before but this may be my last as the service definitely went downhill and the food- definitely not worth it anymore. Our bill was $1100 but just felt it wasn't quite worth it. This was a pre-birthday celebrate for me but I felt disappointed. Looking forward to where we are going on my real birthday where I will post another review.

Was craving carbs but wanting health. Got both. I had the burrito salad with a bit of brown rice. I love how you can customize with tons of flavours but can keep the calories in check. Beans. Corn salsa. Can also go for it with guac, sour cream and cheese. Service good! Vibe fine.

If you are looking for a quick bite in this part of town, Chipotle will not disappoint. We had their Chicken Bowl with Gaucomole and the order took about 5 minutes. The food was pretty good and it was not spicy. Definitely worth a visit.
Rajiv Bajaj - 4 months ago

I was excited to finally try Chipotle after months of seeing videos online. I was in a hurry and needed to eat dinner quickly so that I could take the train home. First thing I noticed was how unclean the location was. My friend and I ended up eating at Union Station because it was much cleaner. The seating at the restaurant is weird to begin with. Secondly, was the service. I did receive the food I had ordered and it was delicious. I appreciated the amount of food received in the bowl. I hope that in the future, this particular location improves on cleanliness and service.

Meh. I was excited to try Chipotle, as my son said it was great. So, I get in there, and notice almost EVERYTHING has cilantro in it!!! That is the devil’s lettuce! 🌿 The rice, the meat, everything. So, I ordered a burrito, and the strange thing is they grill the shell before everything goes in, and not after, so the cheese doesn’t melt? Weird. Anyhow, I got brown rice (with cilantro), refried beans, chicken (with cilantro), salsa (with cilantro) sour cream and cheese. It was a good size, I will give Chipotle that. But, without the cheese being melted, it was just ok. Don’t know if I’d go back. Also, tables were very dirty, and seating was limited. The only thing I really appreciated was the variety of beverages (as captured in the picture).

Dec 13/25 visit. Great old school steakhouse, downtown Toronto. Quiet atmosphere, lots of wood trim & decor. Book a reservation for sure. Not a lot of tables. Short walk to Scotiabank for hockey fans. Steaks are great, quick and attentive service. Will be going back.

Dined here recently with some friends and it was unbelievable! Not only the food being spectacular but the service is second to none. Jamie greeted us from the time we walked in the door to when we sat down, checked on us plenty of times to make sure we were doing well. He talked to us as if he knew us his entire life. It’s the little things like this that go in the long way To start we split the cheese bread which was to die for! Wow wow wow. Also got the jumbo prawns which is served with cocktail sauce. Our entrees were the 12 ounce New York strip, 10 ounce New York strip, 7 ounce sirloin. Sides were baked potato, fries. The steak was cocked to perfection, super juicy, full of flavour. I would 100% recommend this place to anyone looking to try.
