I went to this particular Tim Hortons after my exams. It was really spacious, and the orders were taken pretty fast as there was no queue. There is a separate bar for Sandwiches and Wraps, the guy who did it was really fast and friendly. I hard ordered the Roasted Beef Sandwich, and French Vanilla the former was good, but the coffee wasn't that great.The place had a good interior and it was calm. Definitely would come again.

My first visit here, on my husband's recommendation, as it's his favourite restaurant in Toronto. We ate with our son in law and daughter, who we haven't seen for some time, they live in Vancouver, and we, in England. So, it was a big occasion for us and I was hoping for a great experience! I was NOT disappointed, quite the opposite. Our food was sublime, the service attentive, knowledgeable and professional whilst being warm and welcoming, and the venue itself is contemporary, smart and really very tasteful. We ate every morsel of food, had wonderful mock and cocktails, and thoroughly enjoyed the ambience and the magnificent views. The only thing I'd change? That it was on my doorstep. Compliments to the entire team at this incredible place!!

Made a reservation for Feb 16 online. Followed up with a phone call to inform one guest was vegetarian. Process was very easy. Arrived on time, and fortunately received a window seat. The views are amazing. Please insist on a window seat because this is one of the main reasons to come to this restaurant….the views! We decided to go with the Tasting Menu (seven course meal decided by the chef, based on the local available ingredients). The food was really good, however, not once were we asked how we might want certain food cooked. It was all decided by the chef. The wait staff were very attentive and professional, very efficient and quick, and can’t say anything bad about their service. Top notch. We paid over $600 for dinner for two, and overall feel like the food was overpriced, based on the quality and experience. We likely will not come back because there are so many other choices within Toronto with amazing food and service for the same price.

We had such an incredible time during my first visit to Canoe! The restaurant not only offers the best view in Downtown Toronto, and the ambiance was absolutely stunning. I highly recommend going there with someone you love. We decided to try the Taste Canoe menu, every dish was beyond fantastic. The presentation was top-notch, and the flavors were incredibly tasty. If I had to choose a favorite, it would definitely be the Onion + Caviar. The chef used real onions, and it was simply amazing. You have to try it! Make sure to make a reservation in advance and request a window seat. It's the perfect spot to celebrate any occasion. Complimentary Parking after 5:30PM

We had an amazing Valentine’s Day dinner. The staff are very friendly and professional. There was a set menu, everything was great but we found the dessert to be too bitter. It was dark chocolate moose so I can understand but I think it needed something sweet to make the dark chocolate less overwhelming. Nevertheless it was close to perfect. Definitely would recommend the “hummingbird” cocktail.

Came here in November for a cousin's wedding and the venue was so incredibly beautiful. We were able to watch the sunset while drinking some amazing and strong cocktails. For dinner I had the onion soup as my app, 5.5oz aged Albertan filet as my main, and the blood orange + honey dessert. Everything was delicious, but the cocktails and view were definitely my favourite!

A good stop on your way to an event downtown. The service is usually fast and efficient, the food is good and you have various seating options. New menu items added recently and I don't recommend the pasta! I should've know better than to order pasta at a bar&grill though, that's on me!

This was the first place we stopped when we arrived in downtown Toronto. Very friendly waiters, soft music, delicious burgers and Caesar salad. The potatoes are not the most delicious, the salad was tastier. The burger is great. I recommend! True tip 18% from the check.

Our first time at this location. Thoroughly, enjoyed our lunch. Service was top notch. Staff was professional. Our waitress Layla was friendly and attentive. Did not have to wait long for the food. Ordered the lobster dip with pita chips and nachos. Dip was creamy and delicious. Wings were tasty and juicy. Fiesta salad was original and made with fresh ingredients. Overall had a fantastic experience. Would definitely come back again.

We loved all the items that we had ordered i.e. asiago chicken bow-tie pasta, chicken parmigiana and chocolate malted brownie. Service is great. Price is ok considering the food taste, restaurant location(opposite of union station) and the restaurant ambience. Highly recommend this place for great meals.

A great time was had at Jack Astor’s tonight!! I had no idea this location was so big. It’s so nice in there; I went for a work dinner and we waited 2 minutes before we were seated, no time at all. There were about 15 of us and I swear we barely waited for food and apps. The service was so efficient, no issues, just smooth sailing. Our server Nick was very patient, especially for the first timers, who had questions about the menu. I’ll definitely be back over the holidays.

I would have given more stars if I could. This is our second time coming here and it gets better every time. The food is amazing but the service is even better. At every turn our server Janus made the evening very special for us, just exceptional service. The kitchen staff also made our evening and our anniversary so wonderful, thank you so much to everyone working this evening. Also the cheesecake is to die for.

Always exception service and attention to detail by the staff. Went for lunch and they delivered the food promptly and arrived hot. A bit more difficult to find options if you have a dairy allergy but they accommodated what they could. The pasta was cooked perfectly and the calamari was fresh tasting.

I haven't been to Jump in a loooong time (~10 years). On this evening I came here with colleagues and client for dinner. Staff was amazing and attentive. Decor and atmosphere was very nice as well. Food was excellent. There were a lot of menu items I wanted to try, but landed on the seared scallop & Argentine shrimp seafood risotto. My only criticism is that portions weren't great -- but I guess this is quality vs quantity debate, or maybe I just eat a lot ^_^ For dessert I got the pear tarte tatin, which was amazing, but I couldn't taste much pear in it (but it was still good). I had colleagues who sang praises for the white chocolate cheesecake as well.

Visited for Winterlicious recently and enjoyed a tasty, upscale menu with a great experience to boot. They're conveniently located in Toronto's Financial District, with street-level access and indoor access both accessible. The food was prepared in a timely manner and all dishes were great - the salmon gravlax and Arctic char were delicious, as was the banoffee pie trifle dessert. Service was good as well and food arrived shortly after ordering - the staff definitely go above and beyond to make your experience a great one. Worth checking out for your next downtown dining experience!

We dined at Jump before a show at Meridian Hall, and we were in a bit of a rush. Our server was very accommodating, and he placed our orders right away. He made sure that we got all our food and were able to get out in time to catch our show. We were there on December 30th, and they had beautiful decor with gold and black balloons which gave us some photo opportunities. The decor and ambiance is gorgeous. And the food in service is impeccable. We had beef carpaccio, burrata, and scallops for appetizers and all three were hands down delicious. For main course, we had lamb, chicken el pesto and half chicken. I felt the lamb could use more flavour, but the other two dishes were so good. Thank you for the wonderful experience!

Enjoyed a great meal here with my two sons. We were seated right away by a friendly staff member. Our waitstaff was polite and super efficient. We shared some nachos and I had the Gizzle which was an amazing cocktail. My son’s had the Notorious MAC burger, the other son had the Woody burger and I had the Loaded Truffle Fries. The portions were extremely generous. Will not hesitate to eat here again.

We went here as 10 member group before easter long weekend..This place was pretty much crowded.. but loved the place.. I have first ordered Gizzle cocktail which tasted like a cough syrup(I won'trecommend this one)..so I just can't even drink that.. I just informed the waitress in first sip itself and she kindly talked with the manager and helped to change the order.. And they have wide range of beer! And the service was so good.. and we just loved the nachos , wings and the top part was brownie with ice cream just loved the soft and hot brownie!

Fun little spot we like to hit up before any raptors or leafs game while in town. Like both bars upstairs and downstairs. Prices are reasonable and live music downstairs.

Had a great date night with my girlfriend here. Heard great things about this place. The service is very good. The drinks were cold and fresh. The food is really really good. I order the nachos to start with guacamole and chicken. I also ordered the 2 pound wings, buffalo butter, hot flavor, which was amazing I would go back to this place just to order wings to be honest and I also ordered the chicken avocado club sandwich with a Caesar salad. Very good choice as well. I went during all star weekend and the staff were giving out free million Canadians mini pints which was a real cool experience. I will be coming back forsure, great atmosphere and Enviroment.

Food and service was amazing! we ordered nachos and food both came out insanely fast, and our waitress was always checking on us! even some of the kitchen staff when bringing desserts would also check on us, really really fantastic. only complaint was the artwork was mot my favourite too look at (youll understand when you see it ) but thats just personal preference, everything outside of that was 9/10!!

Bymark provided a commendable setting for a corporate lunch, blending a business-like ambiance with a menu that generally impresses. Located conveniently at the TD Tower, it offers the perfect backdrop for workday meals with colleagues and partners. The cuisine, except for the fish dish, met expectations, suggesting that Bymark is a reliable choice for professional gatherings where the setting is just as important as the meal. The restaurant's atmosphere, coupled with its satisfactory culinary offerings, makes it a suitable venue for those looking to combine business with pleasure.

The truffle fries, and tiramisu trifle were really good, however the lobster roll was a solid 3/5, didn't have much of a fresh seafood flavour as it was mostly mayo. The cappuccino i ordered was very watered down. Place is really expensive for the amount of food you get. The service was really amazing though

Highly overrated. This is a very average to disappointing restaurant overall There was some hype about this restaurant, so I wanted to give it a try and so took my husband and four of our friends here for his birthday. To start, the staff were not educated or trained on the menu. When our table asked our waiter for suggestions, he was completely oblivious - he didn't even have one recommendation. We also had to beg for water 3 times over the course of the dinner. Similarly, when we asked for recommendations on cocktails/drinks, the waiter replied, saying, " im into traditional drinks," - that was not very helpful. We were left to fend for ourselves. The menu itself was not very inspiring, original, or unique. For example, staples like fried calamari, Caesar, and kale salads can be found in so many mainstream restaurants across the country like Jack Astors, Milestones, Joey etc. Despite that, I wanted to put this menu to the test, so we ordered a total of 13 dishes to share among 6 patrons. To our dismay, 5 of the dishes were extremely boring, bland, and flavorless - the beet salad, the turkey sandwich, the kale salad, the beef tartare, the grilled lobster to name a few. Six other dishes were average, such as the Wagyu dumplings and the tuna tartare. We had to return our fries to the kitchen because they were cold and soggy and reminded us of stale fries you find under the seat of your car. There was not one dish that I found to be intriguing or which I crave to go back and try again. Besides the food and awkward waiting staff, the atmosphere was eerily quiet, lacked ambiance, and was filled with dead silence. I was shocked to see that only 4 of the 25+ tables had guests, and despite that, the waiting staff struggled to stay on top of orders. Learning moment for everyone: I will save your time and money and prevent you from emptying your wallet here needlessly. Go experience fine cuisine elsewhere. Your expectations will not be met here if you are anticipating a gastronomical delight. And, definitely do NOT take anyone here for a special occasion like a birthday, first date, or anniversary - they will be disappointed. Go elsewhere that has an inspiring menu, good service, and at the very least, a spot that offers minimal ambiance. Amen.

Unfortunately, the second small paragraph of comments was from three years ago. Just went back yesterday (Jan 22,2024) got a very disappointing experience. The environment was still nice. The location is perfect. It nestled in the tall buildings of our well known financial district. But the food was horrible. We ordered two of the famous signature burgers, substituted fries with king mushrooms (tasted like leftovers) and brussels sprouts (overcooked and dry). After waited for more than twenty minutes, almost finished all of our drinks, the burgers came out, they were dry as hell, with only a bit of shredded lettuce in between. There was not a single trace of truffles. They did bring some shredded truffles out as an apology. But you could tell the truffles were not fresh. And they admitted that they used majority truffle oil. With that kinda quality of food, I spent $200 right there. Don’t think I’d like to go back again. One of the best burgers in Toronto! this restaurant’s truffle burger is so delicious!

It was a very delightful experience. The price is absolutely worth the wonderful food. • The Calamari and Octopus in Cashew and Coconut paste was so well presented and so delicious (4.5/5) • The beef Burger was medium rare and juicy on the inside (4.5/5) • Veal Schnitzel was extremely crunchy on the outside (4/5) • The dessert was by far the by best dessert experience of my life. Caramelized popcorn with ice cream and cheesecake. The presentation in itself was wow. (5/5)

Unless you're getting crab, cajun sea gumbo, or lobster soup, don't bother. Whatever soup is left after rush hour is still available for a reason...

So delicious. Wish they were in Mississauga Oakville area. My husband brought me the Jamaican crab bisque, was full of real crab meat. Can't wait to try more.

This place has one of the bests soups I’ve ever tried in my life. They were closing shop and offered me and my 2 friends complementary soups to go along with our purchase which we found to be so thoughtful. The staff is super friendly and they give off amazing vibes that resonates with the food they make. 5/5!!!

The food here was okay, not great. The service was good and made up for the lack of atmosphere and food quality. Other Chipotle is better. This one not too consistent with the brand

Stopped at this location to dine-in multiple times during my visit to DTT. The staff was always friendly. Clean restaurant. The food was good. Some of the best Chipotle I've had. The portions seemed generous to me. Yum!

Absolutely love grabbing takeout from Front St Chipotle! My go-to spot for a quick, delicious meal. Whether it's their signature rice bowls or the a custom bowl, every dish is a hit. The staff's efficiency is remarkable, ensuring a swift pickup every time. This location has become a staple for my meals on the go!"

It's a little outdated inside but what a meal we had. Drinks food and service was all great. I had a 35oz steak and it was so delicious. My friends all had different cuts of meat not as big, they all really loved the food. 6 men 7 appetizers of course mains as well a bottle of wine many drinks. $200 a person including tip. We also had desert.

Foods - excellent, their steaks were soooo good Services - formal old style, so a bit cold. A bit of smiling face added to the style would be great, a bit of regular check in would show a formal and caring style od tgis new era. Atmosphere - traditional old style, tiny space (i am petit and found it hard to get in my seat!), the seats were shrinking.... so old in every senses. I expected old style but classy everything, to the price we paid

I’ve been to Bardi’s a few times now and it’s always a great experience. Whether you are going for a date, with some friends or a bachelor party they have you covered. The service is always incredibly and Jamie is the best. Always greets me by name and does a great job of making you feel important. The food is absolutely terrific, the steaks are always cooked to perfection. I also recommend the shrimp cocktail, the size of the shrimps are massive. The decor is slightly outdated but it’s definitely your traditional steakhouse which I love. It’s also conveniently located steps from union station and near Scotiabank arena so it’s a great stop before a game. I will 100% be returning again as soon as possible. Highly recommended .

Amazing Service. Amazing Food. I think these unchanged old school restaurants will really become popular again. We had a dining experience thanks to the staff, amazing food and wine. Highly recommend

Toronto is sleeping on this spot! It's been here for a very very long time, the food and the service are unparalleled. This is a real deal old school steak and upscale meal spot. I try to arrange my business dinners here whenever I can and enjoy seeing first time guests morph from being a bit reticent upon seeing the decor (could use an update) to utter delight as soon as they meet the waiter and have their first bite. There aren't a lot of spots that offer family style steak service anymore; they've always been so amazing with me to create a family service from anything on the menu. Don't skip the cheese bread, either! Bardi's is on the higher end for cost, but you absolutely get what you pay for. Places like this are what make Toronto unique and worth visiting!
