This is the Best Tim Hortons in Ontario. The coffee is always Perfect. The Donuts made me enjoy Timbits and the Double Chocolate donut again The Breakfast Farmers Wrap perfectly Made. Bathrooms were spotless. You can't control The clientele so I won't judge them based on who's standing around their Business. The Best Tim Hortons By a Long shot.

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.

Best service you can get at any Tim Hortons. The staff is super friendly and always keen to help customers. Pay them top dollar they are true gems.

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.

Canoe was incredible! We went to celebrate our anniversary and they had a nice little card on our table. All of the staff were friendly, knowledge about the menu, and made us feel very special. The food was incredible. We ordered the scallop en croute, which was the best scallop that I have ever had. For entres we ordered the stuffed lamb saddle and the wild bc halibut, with the chicken salt fries on the side, all of it was outstanding. And the screeched tarte au sucre for dessert was good. The experience was definitely worth the cost.

Toronto is a city I’ve spent my entire adult life exploring, and every so often you have an evening that reminds you why you fell in love with it in the first place. Dinner at Canoe was one of those evenings. As the sun set over the skyline and the CN Tower slowly lit up outside the windows, every course that arrived felt like a celebration of Canadian cuisine, creativity, and hospitality. The food was beautifully executed, thoughtful, and memorable without ever feeling pretentious. What elevated the experience, however, was the people. Johann welcomed us with the kind of genuine hospitality that can’t be taught. He made us feel like valued guests rather than just another table, and his presence added warmth to the entire evening. Our server, Steven, was outstanding. Professional, knowledgeable, witty, and effortlessly charming. He reminded me of the hospitality professionals who understand that great service isn’t about reciting menu descriptions—it’s about creating an experience people will remember long after the last course leaves the table. Steven did exactly that. I’ve worked in hospitality for many years, and I know how difficult it is to make service feel natural, personal, and seamless. Johann and Steven made it look easy. An unforgettable evening, incredible views, beautiful food, and hospitality that stayed with me long after I left the restaurant. Thank you for a truly memorable night.

Outstanding restaurant for an enchanting evening. The view is simply phenomenal. A smorgasbord for the senses. Michelle, our server, expertly blended professionalism with approachability. Hats off to her. The food was fine but nothing knocked our socks off, although there was a traditional pie dessert that was sublime. The lamb and halibut were well prepared but not exceptional. That said I would return to Canoe. On balance it is a restaurant you do not want to miss.

Visited for Winterlicious lunch. The view was stunning. We're lucky that we got a standard seat next to the window with the unbeatable view. The food was properly cooked but not impressive. I liked the dessert very much but the portion was tiny. The restaurant was a bit noisy for me but it's quite standard for this kind of restaurant. The service was professional but a bit cold. Overall a great experience but it's quite pricey. I guess we paid extra for the view.

Kristen in the front and Jesús at the table were extremely helpful as the rest of the staff. I came here with family (3 adults, myself, and a toddler) They were accommodating, the food was delicious. I came here as a celebration for my graduation, and they had customized notes and all staff had known about it and congratulated me. It's my family's first time in Toronto, and they loved it here.

Whoa, this place is an absolute zoo on game night! We arrived at prime time (6 p.m.) before a 7 p.m. Leafs game, and there were lineups everywhere. It wasn’t immediately clear where we were supposed to stand, but once staff connected with us, they moved quickly and got us seated faster than we expected. The atmosphere is fast-paced, loud, and energetic; definitely game-night vibes. The décor is trendy, with Rolling Stones magazine covers and album art lining the walls. It feels lively and modern. Space is tight, though. We had to squeeze our way past other tables, which felt a little chaotic. That said, they absolutely nailed the timing. We told them we needed to eat quickly before heading to the game, and they had us in and out in 45 minutes. It’s only about a 7-minute walk to the arena, which is super convenient. Our food arrived quickly, which was impressive. However, we barely saw our server after ordering. Our table was missing basics like salt, pepper, and vinegar, and we had to flag down other staff to get them. By the time everything arrived, our fries were cold (and I’m definitely someone who likes hot fries.) If you’re heading there before a game, I’d strongly suggest looking at the menu ahead of time or while you’re waiting for your table. Having our order ready definitely helped speed things up. The spinach dip was disappointing. We expected something thick and cheesy, but it was quite watery and came with only a small handful of chips; there was far more dip than chips. A tiny sprinkle of feta on top didn’t add much. At over $20, it felt very overpriced, and I wouldn’t order it again. Overall, the food was just “okay” but filling. For four people: one Coke, one iced tea, four handheld sandwiches, and two appetizers; the bill was close to $175. For the value, and considering how many other restaurant options there are nearby, I’m not sure we’d choose to return. I was impressed by the speed of service in terms of food timing, but that was the highlight. Also worth noting: this location is not wheelchair accessible. There are stairs at the entry, and the bathrooms are downstairs.

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.

This place is great for a quick bite and stop before a game. Got the Buffalo wings as an app and it didn't disappoint. Great flavor and decent size. We wanted to order more, but we had a burger coming. I got it with of side of smashed potatoes. As the name says it, it was definitely smashed and so good with the caramelized onions and green onions on top. Better than I expect. The burger was huge and filling. I'd say a bit over cooked as it seemed a little dry for my tastes, but overall with the toppings it was still pretty good. Love the little fried onion strings on the burger too! On top of that I had to get the Mango fish bowl for a drink and it was delish! Glad to see the atmosphere was still quite lively. Ill definitely be back. And I also look forward to when their patio opens up in the summer. Also as a side note, there was something very strange with their black paper straws. Each time we got a drink, we had to remove them. Overall great place and I'm be back!

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.
Shane Mahendran - 5 months ago

We were seated quickly thanks to our reservation, and the bacon cheeseburger with Caesar salad was good in both quality and portion. Unfortunately, the Fiesta salad with chicken was disappointing, the salad didn’t feel fresh and the chicken was very dry. The guacamole was fresh but felt unfinished, more like ingredients to assemble ourselves. Compared to the price, there are better options in the same area. That said, our server was very friendly and polite, she spoke with the manager to remove the salad from the bill, which we really appreciated. Overall: good service and ambiance, but food quality ranged from average to poor.

Came here to celebrate a birthday and had a great experience. We took advantage of a special they were running for a bunch of oysters and a bottle of sparkling wine—the oysters were pretty fresh! For my main, I ordered the pasta, which was cooked to a perfect al dente and packed with flavor. The ambiance of the restaurant is very quiet and peaceful, making it ideal for a nice dinner out. Our servers were also very mindful and attentive throughout the evening without being intrusive. Overall, a fantastic experience. I will definitely be back for future special occasions!

It was the perfect place to celebrate my husband’s birthday. The servers were punctual, friendly and accomadating. We wanted to order food from the happy hour menu as our appetizers even though it was no longer happy hour and they allowed it. They decorated his dessert for his birthday and brought complementary champagne. The food was delicious. We got calamari and spring rolls for appetizers which were both amazing. And then steak and lamb as our mains. Again, delicious. The ambience (in the dining section) was dim and quiet which was perfect for us. We’ll definitely be back.

We had the most amazing experience at Jump. The food was fantastic (Cornish hen, tuna tartar, octopus ) and the service was great. Our desserts were perfect and well balanced. Would recommend it highly.

Our server, Amon (sp?), was beyond pleasant; He was so genuine, took the time to connect with us in addition to providing exemplary service! Our orders were super tasty and fresh. They have a great selection of non-alcoholic beverages and a giant pretty patio space. Highly recommend!

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.

Great place to grab a bite before a game. Atmosphere is fun, a little loud but proximity to stadiums it's a good place to eat and get excited to watch a game or concert. I had dinner with me son and it was pretty good. My son had the fish and chips, little pricey for a one piece but it was good and worth the money, very thin batter which was great. I had the bacon cheese burger and it was very enjoyable, great flavour, good size. Had a side of the hot sauce for dipping my fries and the sauce was delicious. Service was fast and friendly and the washroom was clean. Been here many times over the years and will be back again.

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.

Stepped into this bar while looking for a quick bite around lunch time close to Union station. It was busy but we were lucky to find a seat. Ordered food which was served in 7-10 minutes. Food was fresh and on point. Good experience!
Amber Hasan - 3 months ago

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.

Great place to stop late after a show. The sliders are crazy delicious. Wings are hot and good. Staff was friendly. Atmosphere was hoping and fun. Good music on a Friday night. Lots of people having fun.

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.

Before I tried it I used to wonder why anyone would line up for soup. It seemed a little cliche, playing out just like the Seinfeld episode for which the restaurant is named. But then I tried it and fully understood. I went back the next day and have since gone back several times. Although the line up might seem long, it does move at a fast pace (after all it doesn’t take long for the team to scoop the soup into a bowl). You can avoid the line entirely by ordering in advance with the Ritual app. Try it once and you’ll be hooked!

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.
David Boulos - 8 months ago

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.

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.

Came here for a family get together and was not disappointed. My second time dining at Bymark and I recall the food was delicious hence recommending it to family. It was a slower evening so only one waitress was serving but she was very friendly. We got to try the dry aged duck, the rib eye steak which was tender and juicy cooked perfectly, oysters, salmon and a bunch of sides. Portions were fair , taste was on par to my expectations. The cocktails were just okay. Location was conveniently located inside the PATH. Would definitely come back again

Found some pictures of when I visited with a group last year. Food was memorable even after a year. So good. Service was great. These dumplings OMG. Need to go back one day.

First time at Bymark. Had an early Friday dinner with a colleague and really enjoyed my meal. Was a little breezy outside so we ate downstairs around 7:30 and it was quite empty, everyone else seemed to opt for the patio. The menu had no vegan options listed but when I inquired there were numerous options available… I opted for their vegan lasagna and I’d highly recommend it. It was delicious. I could have made better notes as their online menu doesn’t track to what I recall… we had a starter that included a sweet pea based falafel, which I had never seen before, it was also great, a nice bright green falafel, which when you think about it, makes sense, yet I was still surprised to see it, would order again for sure. I did opt for two scoops of their sorbet for dessert… both great, but again forget what they were and no help from the website. Server suggested the scoops were a modest size so I went for two… but they were pretty big, would have been fine with just one… naturally I ate them both :). Will gladly return.

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 🌇.

Went there on June 11 for the BOGO event if you wear a jersey! We definitely put on our Arsenal jerseys and ordered two bowls. Love the steaks and the beef and the portions were generous (we couldn’t finish them) friendly staff great game vibe! Love that they are doing this. ❤️

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.

Easy access and close to the union station, good for quickly grabbing food in between layovers. Fast service, decent price, very lively. Beef barracuda is an amazing choice

Super fast. Friendly staff. Food good. 1 overall less star owing to APP and the order experience. I tried placing order but it kept saying "sorry we are having issues with payment system" Tried 1 card 2x and 1 card 1x - still same error message. So i went to store and paid normally. Little did i know that the failed orders went through (despite error) and I have been charged 3x for food i didn't receive. So this is poor as has the follow up.

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.

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.

My wife and I went here for Valentine's day. We frequent mid to high end steakhouses. It was not busy. The service was excellent and the atmosphere tho dated was pleasant enough and whats to be expected. Bardi's is priced below blue bloods and some of the other steak houses, but higher than the keg and silimar to Ruth Chris. The cuts were limited. We ordered a porterhouse for 2 medium rare. Although it was cooked to medium rare somehow it was very dry and lacked flavour. The sides of asparagus and brussel sprouts were very good. But the steak was not. Perhaps it was precooked? Or left under the warming lamps for too long.. I would sadly rank this at the bottom of the list for toronto area steak houses.
Matt - 5 months ago

My wife and I shared the 35oz porterhouse steak with fries. Medium.. Absolutely delicious. We met a lovely couple also celebrating their wedding anniversary. Expensive, but you get what you pay. We'll definitely dine there again.
