Toronto restaurants within a 5 minute walk of Union Station | Ratings, Reviews & Maps

It’s very convenient for travellers. I got the large iced coffee for a dollar and it’s really good. I did the survey on a previous receipt to get this deal. I also got a cheese croissant. It’s very average as there’s no taste of cheese in it. Next time I’ll just get a regular croissant and I pay less for that. The girls at the counter are very pleasant and helpful. Service there is superb.

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.

Breakfast at this location was fast and timely, truly appreciated as I was rushing for a tour...their egg and bacon biscuit sandwich was delicious and fresh along with Timbits of course, a hot americano all sealed the start of what turned out to be a good day...recommend this location for fast delivery of service.

I’m here to share my experience dining in the Canoe restaurant. As my wife has a birthday, I have been booking a table a week ahead. Honestly, it was a long-time idea to visit the restaurant. But I just wanted to make an occasion more appropriate. Alright, about the Atmosphere: the view and interior are 5/5, and the location and vibe are good. Service: 5/5 Yes, the waiter was amiable and kind, always trying to do their job well. Food: 4.5/5. Yeah, it’s just 4.5, and I will tell you why. The food looks excellent, and all elements and textures are high-level, but taste was missing in dishes with protein. Maybe I need to order squab or rabbit for better taste. Dining time: 2 hours Dishes: 3 starters, two mains, two desserts Drinks: 2 cocktails Bill: $390 before tips, and $450 after tips. So yeah, if you consider it in this place, be ready to spend.

Amazing! Amazing views from the 54th floor of the TD building with panoramic views over the Toronto waterfront. We picked a sunny day during sunset, but this was a bonus! The seasonal menu of local produce was concise but offered a delight for most - all, I would suggest! All our dishes were well prepared, presented and, most importantly tasted sublime. Staff were spot on, knowledgeable & welcoming. Highly recommended from these happy diners!

Nice view of Toronto tower as expected. The interior design is very nice as well. But bad point is that it’s super noisy, feels like eating in a bistro. Not romantic at all if busy. Food is average, I’d say even low for the price (expect minimum 550$ for the tasting menu for 2). Also, it’s pretty hard to understand what we’re eating because the staff accent is strong. They’re nice and helpful tho. That’s a positive point. I’d recommend you to go a late afternoon for drinks rather than eating there. Parking is free but not easy to find , and you’ll have to switch elevators as well which should be better indicated . Overall no regrets but wouldn’t recommend either.

This is a restaurant where the main selling point is the view and the decor. Located on the 54th floor, you get a stunning view of Toronto. You see the TD tower and the CN tower clearly. The view gets even better after dark. This makes it a great place for business functions and if you are looking to impress guests. The service was also great. Staff was polite, attentive, and took the time to explain each dish. The food is pretty good. I had better elsewhere, and it is extremely expensive. Not just the price itself, but they give you a much smaller portion than you might expect. Overall it was a good experience if you know what to expect. Being a big eater, I had to get Chick-fil-A after to feel satiated.

I had my wedding reception dinner here for 30 guests in the private rooms (east and west room). Staff was extremely helpful, courteous and thoughtful (Amanda, the head server, would bring a straw to me for my drinks on her own accord to preserve my lipstick - thanks!). Everything was executed professionally with care and professionalism. Food was delicious. Planning process was easy and clear communication provided - I was actually impressed staff would remember instructions I had provided during the planning process with the event coordinator which means everyone is communicating behind-the-scenes on what my expectations were and ensured they were met. I highly recommend Canoe for any event! Thank you everyone, really made my wedding day special.

Loved the food and vibe here. We went there for team lunch and it turned out to be the perfect spot for us. Izzy was super friendly and accommodating with the orders and changes we made to it.

We hang out today with a friend that comes from France. And they wer ready for some beers 🍺 the place was kind of full for a Wednesday, but you know it's "Summer 🏝️" so a little bit of sun and everyone wants a patio. So we were 5 and got a table outside. Service was a little slow but good so far. Food was ok. Nachos good amount. My chicken parmigiana was good in flavor and amount. My friends got hamburgers the Smokey BBQ. They said was good. The only problem they could cook in the raw term was looking for. I guess for healthy reason. My fried likes literally bloody meat. Everything else good food. First time here.
Itzia Noriega - 2 months ago

Chicken burger was dry, pasta was undercooked. The only thing good was the nachos. The quality has gone downhill over the years while the price keeps going up. Can’t believe all of this was around $80. Would however say that the staff was nice.

Had a great experience here. Grace was our server and she was amazing!! Loved her energy, so attentive and very knowledgeable about the menu. We have some allergies in the family so she was able to help point us in the right direction. It’s hard to come across good servers these days so it was really refreshing to have someone who genuinely cares for their customers and you can tell really does love their job. We will 100% be back. Service is everything when I go out to eat. Food was great too! Highly recommend

If you have been to Jack Astors then you will know what to expect and if not then you come to the place that has the best chicken fingers you can find. Always fresh never frozen battered in house with choice of sauces and if a burger is your thing you can’t go wrong with the holy smoke BBQ burger. These are just as good now as they were years ago, same good portion and same great taste. Great place to watch sports games or if looking to kill time before going to a game at of of the nearby venues, just be forewarned that it does get busy on game-days.

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!

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!

Summerlicious Experience ☀️ We hit up Jump in the financial district to celebrate my fiancé’s birthday with some friends, and boy, did we have a blast! Jump was pretty chill for a Saturday night, which was perfect for our celebration. We had a reservation, so getting to our table was a breeze. A couple of friends were fashionably late (thanks, TO traffic! 😉), but the restaurant staff didn’t rush us at all and took our drink orders while we waited. The appetizers arrived in no time – the Ahi Tuna Ceviche was a refreshing start! For the mains, the linguine with pangrattato was just okay, but the steak? Absolutely divine! It was seasoned nicely and definitely the highlight of the night. We wrapped up our meal with a delightful peach tiramisu, which was the perfect sweet ending to our evening. 🍑🍮 Service was top-notch! Our server checked in on us a few times to make sure we had everything we needed. If you’re looking for a spot to catch up with friends without the loud music, Jump is the place to be ☺️

One of the most reliable lunch spots in the financial district in terms of taste and timing. The portion size is perfect and very robust menu. I’ve been many times and always had a positive experience. I had the catfish again and it was delicious as usual. IG: mansafx

Great dining experience for lunch today. The Braided Sausage Rigatoni was very flavourful and Jump’s Classic Peppercorn Steak, was mouth watering. We finished the meal with a delicious white chocolate cheesecake. Of course we were happy to know it was Happy Hour and enjoyed some bevvies as well. Our server did a great job however was not very engaging. Oh well, I’d still recommend going to Jump.

We stopped in on a Saturday afternoon and were able to get a seat quickly. We order drinks, appetizers, and meals. The calamari was tender and simply seasoned. The drinks were cold, and the service was quick and friendly. We split a meal, and they cut it in half for us with separate plates. We all left the meal enjoying the experience and would be excited to go back next time we are in town. If you found this review helpful, please give a 👍

You will not find a better atmosphere than the loose moose. Classic, sophisticated, rustic and all that accompanied by amazing food, beer and cocktail options. They serviced my family of 5 with ease. The chicken wings and calamari were absolutely delicious. Plenty of food options for all ages. If you have little ones, be aware their seating is high tops.

Good food & nice place for a social hang ✨ ------------------- • 🍻 Food • We got sweet potato fries & nachos to share along with drinks and they both tasted good. Well seasoned and warm. The hot brownie with ice cream and peanuts was sooo good 🤤. I WILL DEFO COME BACK FOR THIS Y'ALL!!! (This item was not on the menu & I had to check with the server) -------------------- • 📜 Menu • Available online & inside. Standard bar grill menu style with burgers, sides, and surprisingly nice salad/bowls options catering to vegan & vegetarians as well. -------------------- • ✳️ Atmosphere • So this place was the one downstairs. They have a bar with amazing decor (see images) with some fun car plates and jokes! Their bathrooms were well maintained as well. -------------------- • 👩🏻‍🍳 Service • Long bar tables that were shared with another group on one end during busy hours (4 people). Our server was friendly, & helpful. She answered all our questions, got us an item off the menu, and removed an item from our bill that was not to our liking. --------------------- • 💲Cost • I'd say the price:portion ratio was good. Expect to pay 20-30$ per person (incl. taxes & tips). --------------------- • 🇨🇦 Location • Situated in the prime location downtown just 5 min walk from Union Station, Scotiabank Arena, and CN Tower! If you're a tourist looking for a bar to watch the game, hang out with folks or just grab a drink and snacks, I'd recommend this place.

This restaurant is minutes away from the Scotiabank Arena. Service is always excellent and food is always delicious. I asked for a classic margarita and it was made perfectly. We look forward to coming back very soon.

The food was great. The buffalo chicken sandwich was great and we got some other food as well. The waitress was overly rude and not very nice. The lack of kids menu items was poor. No it is not really kid friendly restaurant but it is very good food . Plenty of tv to enjoy sports. I would go back because the food was very good. And the overall experience was good and would recommend.

"En route to Union Station, I stumbled upon an unexpected culinary delight. This modest establishment, nestled discreetly along the path, boasted a remarkable selection of house-made soups – no fewer than ten! After much deliberation, I narrowed my choices to three, and to my delight, the affable staff graciously indulged my request for a tasting. The lobster bisque ultimately captivated my palate. Striking a masterful balance, it delivered rich, nuanced flavors of the sea without succumbing to the common pitfall of an overly fishy character. This is a testament to the chef's culinary prowess. While the confines necessitated a hallway repast – a table and chair were fortunately provided – the experience itself was nothing short of delightful. Toronto's culinary scene promises much, and I eagerly await the opportunity to further explore its hidden gems upon my return."

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.
Lynn Covey-McDonald - 9 months ago

Friendly and efficient service. They serve excellent soup and yummy sandwiches. My favorite order is the shiitake mushroom soup and turkey/pesto sandwich.
Kay - a month ago

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!

Classy experience in the financial district. Tasty food, but abnormally slow service (hopefully a one-off). Oddly empty given the quality of food. We went in as a group of 4 on a Friday night with reservations at 6:30. The restaurant was completely empty upon arrival and hardly filled up throughout the night (there were maybe four other table throughout our time there), much to my surprise. I had been here years prior and it was quite busy, so my initial gut reaction was that something had gotten much worse. Our server was very friendly and our cocktails and dishes were great. The octopus and calamari appetizer was cooked very well, and the wagyu dumplings were very crispy and a great sharing. Our group spoke pretty favorably about all of the entrees we got (scallops, salmon, rigatoni, and chicken). For dessert, the donuts were excellent and not too sweet. We also opted for a cookie platter and our server accommodated my weird request for as many chocolate chip cookies as possible lol. The cookies were just okay, and I probably wouldn't get them again. A tad bit burnt at the bottom and they almost has a fruity taste to them, so I wouldn't call them chocolate chip cookies to be honest. The biggest gripe we had was that service was extremely slow. It took almost thirty minutes from seating to get our orders placed, and another fifteen minutes to get our first round of drinks. Do keep in mind that the restaurant was completely empty when we arrived. I still gave this place a five star review as there are a few caveats: our server informed us that they had just changed their menu that day, so certain operations were running slower. Also, having been here years prior there were never issues with the service. So I'm giving Bymark the benefit of doubt here and hoping that this was a one-off issue. Overall, it was a good experience and I'd come back again for a nice night out.

My first time here, and I feel like this is the place you go to after work in the Financial District in Toronto. I just felt like I was a sophisticated businesswoman, closing deals while eating good food and drinking yummy cocktails. Came here for a retirement party, and the wait staff were fabulous! I ate the food too fast to take any pictures, but the drinks were great, and I love the outdoor space. The bathrooms are an interesting layout, but you can fit in a little extra cardio walking down and up the 2 flights of stairs!

Hello party people this place is a must check out. Food is killa. great service, my medium well steak was cooked perfectly. I had the lemon meringue pie for dessert it was wonderful. No bad things to say about ByMark check it out.

WOW factor indeed! We booked a corporate luncheon for 30 people and the event was superb. Starting with the planning, between the Executive Chef and the General Manager, we had many last minute changes that were handled flawlessly. The Staff are excellent and while engaging in heavy discussion the service was smooth and impeccable. The menu selections divine and the overall impression left with our guests was that we made the best choice for hosting this event. Thank you to Bymark for a memorable and outstanding experience!

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)

Food portion is so small. The staff gave me like a sprinkle of corn, a pinch of fajitas and 8-10 pieces of steak. If I didn’t ask for extra lettuce, I would have had a bowl of nothing for my salad bowl. What’s more concerning is the cleanliness of the restaurant. Trash can is overflowing. Tables are covered with food scraps, receipts, and half eating food bowls. The location isn’t even that crazy and no one seems to care enough to clean up the dining area.

The chicken burrito bowl was very tasty and the guacamole definitely made it taste better. There were different kinds of hot sauce that added a nice spicy kick to the flavor. The burrito bowl was worth the wait and the service was quick. I would probably come here again.
Sarah Phen - a month ago

Portion was real small for a $17 meal. They do tiny little scoops. The brisket was nice, tender and flavourful though. There’s a lot of seating space available but the place is so busy that you might have to wait a bit to get a spot.
L Pb - a month ago

The smoked brisket burrito bowl was good and filling. I got the following in my bowl: half white rice and half brown rice, half black beans and half pinto beans, fresh tomato salsa, roasted chili corn salsa, tomatillo-green chili salsa, fajita veggies, romaine lettuce and smoked brisket. The beef brisket was juicy and tender. The veggies and salsa were good. I also got a side order of the nacho chips which were nice and crispy. I minused a star because of the poor line up and exit flow design where a bottle neck is created where people exiting end up bumping into people lining up especially during peak lunch service.

I wanted to try a traditional steakhouse but Bardis was old school in all the wrong ways. The food was very underwhelming. Our salad was topped with bottled Kraft Italian dressing and our calamari was definitely those pre-cooked frozen ones restaurants just had to put in the deep fryer. The steak was not a great cut even though we get their most expensive one. The decor and ambiance was like walking into a steakhouse from the 70s, and nothing had been cleaned or updated since then. Even the washrooms which are in the basement smelled like wet carpet. With the city having tons of wonderful steakhouses, this is one of the last I'd recommend.

We came for my husbands birthday . The waiter and host Chris are fabulous . The food was excellent . The chowder was great as well as the chicken dinner. I Prefer bardis menu over barberians.

I recently dined at Bardi's Steak House, located on York Street in Toronto, and had an outstanding experience. The quality of the meat was truly exceptional, showcasing their commitment to serving top-notch steaks. The restaurant has a charming old-school vibe, which adds to the overall dining experience. Situated conveniently in downtown Toronto, the location on York Street makes it easily accessible whether you're coming from work, a nearby hotel, or just exploring the city. The customer service was attentive and professional, making us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. If you're looking for a classic steakhouse experience with amazing food and great service in a prime downtown location, Bardi's is definitely worth a visit.
