You can have the same dinner at less than half the price at any number of other restaurants in Toronto. The food is quite ordinary. We had to send the onion soup back, it wasn't edible. They do have a large wine list. Very disappointing. more

We love the food, and we appreciate having servers who have been working the profession for decades. Last time we went, we had the same waiter that I had when my parents took me there when I was 14, in 1984. This is the restaurant we go to when we are looking to eat steak in Toronto. Period. more

This is not the best restaurant I've been to - the food was certainly good, but I've had better. The desserts were a disappointment. However, the atmosphere more than makes up for it, as does the wine list. The service is very good, if a tad pretentious. Certainly worth a splurge to try it - I've never seen a wine... more

Wonderful Service from the minute we walked in the door. The owner is warm and friendly, the servers are attentive and knowledgable, and the food was a treat.

The service was perfect and I really mean it. Actually, I think I can't think of a better service ever. We also had a chance to visit the wine cellar. The... more

We ate in here on our recent trip to Toronto. Don't be fooled by the outside, it looks like a bar or pub outside but inside it's a bit like sitting in someone's living room. The food is gorgeous, the garlic bread they bring out is especially good although you won't be doing much kissing afterwards! Prices are quite steep.... more

Great steak, excellent oysters and probably one of the most extensive wine lists in the city. You wouldn't know it by walking into the place; it feels a bit like one of the Hungarian joints that used to be on Bloor St ... until you notice the original paintings my members of the Group of Seven on the walls.
