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.

Tried a lot of Time Hortons. But this one have the Best Customer Service and the coffee and the wraps are prepared in organised way. The taste were different and good than other ones. Customer service were up to point. All over 5 stars thank you

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.

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.

Simply amazing!!! Everything was a top tier! Parking was easy to find and it was right underground, so we didn’t even have to step outside in a cold weather. Beautiful design and very cozy atmosphere with friendly and attentive service. The view is breathtaking to say the least. Tasting menu was absolutely delicious with a spectacular presentation. Highly recommend this restaurant! 10/10 It’s not just a dinner, it’s an unforgettable experience!

Had the pleasure to come back for my third tasting menu with Canoe. Drinks never disappoint. Starters were delicious, tasty and refreshing for the palate. I wasn’t a huge fan of the marigold rice dish or the sturgeon dish that was cold… as both were very bland, but otherwise everything else was good.

Of course the food was great, but can we talk about Steven? I mean this Michelin star restaurant delivered with the Chef's tasting, but the service really set it apart from other fine dining experiences I have had. Steven wasn't just our waiter, he was our gracious host. And there was a cast of people timing each course to perfection. Canoe will go in the books for one of our all time favorites.

Canoe offers an unforgettable experience with stunning city views, impeccable service, and exceptional Canadian cuisine. Each dish was beautifully crafted and the tasting menu is a must-try. Perfect for special occasions or a refined night out; We had a top-tier dining at its finest with a phenomenal view.

I celebrated my birthday at Canoe, an upscale restaurant with an amazing view from high above the city. The ambiance was incredible, and the service was top-notch. I ordered the salmon, scallops, and a dessert, and everything was delicious. My husband had the onion soup and duck, which were also amazing. Just a heads-up: the portions are small, as expected from fine dining, but that lets you savor more dishes. Overall, a fantastic place for a special occasion!

After searching for what's we could eat gluten free in the area for something different we ended up at Jack Astor's. We are from Edmonton, and since Earl's, Joeys and Cactus Club are Edmonton born restaurants, we didn't want to eat their. And none of the other places we called around in the area were looking to be accommodating. So Jack Astor's looked like the safest bet. We had the steak their, priced really well. We would have paid double if we went to a fancier restaurant. So we were really happy with our choice at the end of the day.

Jack Astor’s in downtown Toronto offers a vibrant dining experience, perfect for a casual night out. Their tacos are a standout — bursting with flavor, perfectly seasoned, and served with fresh toppings that balance every bite. The portions are satisfying, and the presentation is on point. The service was superb.

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!

Lovely restaurant. Came here with my colleagues and enjoyed the Winterlicious menu. Ambience and service was great too. However, if you are not a sweet tooth, don’t ask for the Chocolate pudding. that stuff was toooo sweet, i took 1* away for that. Otherwise, I definitely recommend.

The restaurant had a pleasant atmosphere, and most of the staff were friendly and welcoming. Unfortunately, our experience was marred by our server, who was unwelcoming. Additionally, the dessert was underwhelming, and the soup was quite basic. While there were some positives, the service and food quality left much to be desired.

Excellent service, the waitress was attentive, helpful and overall friendly and pleasant. Nice and trendy ambiance, and food was delicious. The apps were especially tasty including the fried chicken, spring rolls, calamari.

Fantastic experience hosting my wedding at Jump restaurant. Great experience working with the events team, pricing is clear, and the restaurant staff did an amazing job with the food and service. This is the PERFECT LOCATION for intimate weddings, the restaurant already has good amount of decor (cute lighting and wine cellar back drop) so we didn’t have to decorate a big empty space. We did the wedding ceremony at the cocktail area, which is a separate room from the dining space, the space is very cute and warm, guests get to huddle before the ceremony. After the ceremony, our guests loved the canapés … highly recommend the chicken skewer and calamari. For mains, everyone enjoyed the steak, salmon and mushroom ravioli. The portion sizes are very good. The highlight of the course is the pastry cheese cake, it’s very unique and adds special flavour to the meal. Overall, I highly recommend the space and everyone enjoyed the celebration. Shout out to the events and dining team (Andrea, Jessica etc)

The Loose Moose in downtown Toronto is a lively and vibrant spot that’s worth checking out, especially if you’re looking for a place with great atmosphere and friendly service. We stopped by after a concert at Scotiabank Arena around midnight, and despite the busy crowd, they managed to accommodate our group of eight without any issue, which was impressive. The vibe and décor of the restaurant stood out immediately. It has a cozy, rustic charm with a modern twist that makes it feel welcoming and stylish. The lighting, seating arrangements, and overall cleanliness added to the positive impression, it’s clearly a well-maintained and thoughtfully designed space. The staff were another highlight of our visit. They were incredibly friendly, attentive, and upbeat, even with the late-night rush. Their professionalism and cheerful attitude made the experience even more enjoyable. However, I have to admit that the food was just average. While the menu offered plenty of options, the quality didn’t quite live up to the ambiance. The flavors were okay but not exceptional, and it left me wishing for a bit more in terms of taste and presentation. As for the drinks, the draft beer was disappointing. It lacked the depth and richness I usually expect, and the alcohol content felt underwhelming, which was a letdown considering their extensive beer menu. Overall, The Loose Moose is a great place for the atmosphere and service, but the food and drinks could use some improvement to match the rest of the experience.

Our server was Fara and she was very good and attentive! Went in with a group of 9 people and she was great! The atmosphere was very cute and nice & the food was really good. I got the poutine but with only cheese and gravy, so good. And this brownie dessert with ice cream (also super tasty, the brownie was so warm!!)

Came to Loose Moose around midnight and got this amazing burger “The Woody”. The atmosphere was awesome and the service was fast and great! They took care of us from the moment we stepped in. I recommend this burger specially if you like barbecue, bacon and caramelized onions. The fries also were amazing I think they were hand cut style fries. Super delicious, looking forward to coming back!

Went to the Antler Room for a quick bite before a hockey game and had a great experience! Our server was great and the food came quick. The decorations were cute and festive; the food was tasty! Overall a great experience!

Honestly the server was the winner of the day here. She was wearing a trasher sweater and was super nice and checked in with us. The food was really want sealed the deal for the two star rating. It wasn’t good. I don’t think any of us enjoyed our food. We were a group of 6 and each of us felt like our food just fed our hungry bellies but didn’t have us feeling good as the flavours were not there For my meal I had chicken nachos with extra chicken and I regret paying extra when the chicken was seasoned with the barest amount of salt it seemed. I love nachos and usually opt for them and this was my first time ever regretting spending money on them. No salt on the chips and no flavour on the chicken and the cheese melted to the paper that a few of my bites had the paper in it Overall not impressed with the food at all

Best place to get lunch in the PATH, best soup I’ve had in the city when it comes to casual options. The tomato/pepper and the crab bisque are excellent. Don’t let the lower reviews fool you, esp when it comes to delivery services. Uber/Dashers will always have trouble finding this place because it’s in the PATH. You’re better off coming here on your own. Prices are worth it considering how delicious and fast it is.

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!

Normally I really like it but today I got the Apple and Butternut and it was just hot cream with chunks of Apples and Butternut squash in it. Shouldn't that be blended? Didn't have time to go back.

"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."

Came here for an office Christmas party. Really attentive service and drinks. Food wise the octopus is better than Bar Isabel. Steak was meh a little below average; seasoning a bit too light and overcooked. But honestly I can imagine trying to cook and serve 30 steaks at the same time is very challenging. Loved the dessert donuts!
Qamar Khan - 4 months ago

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!
Robyn Deverett - 9 months ago

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.
Lin Phillips - 10 months ago

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)

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 - 5 months ago

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.
Ann Huang - 5 months ago

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 - 6 months ago

2/5 (at best) Came here as I was early for my train and knew I wouldn’t be eating for at least another hour and a half… Ordered the chipotle smoked brisket bowl on a bed of brown rice, loaded with veggies. Brisket had chunks of fat that often required me to discretely spit in my napkin. The surroundings were horrible with litter everywhere. Would not come back here. Less than mediocre quality food and a filthy environment. 🤮👎🏼

I had a lovely valentines dinner at Bardi’s! The food was delicious, a calm peaceful atmosphere, and our server Chris was excellent! I highly recommend for your next date night :)

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.
Dong-Ling Chen - 10 months ago

Open since 1966 for a good reason. It's all what's a good steak house should be. Great, perfect steak with the best fries. Don't miss the onion rings.
