Critically acclaimed to be among Canada’s best restaurants, Canoe's unique location high atop the TD Bank Tower affords a breathtaking view of the city and Lake Ontario. The design, originally conceptualized by noted designers Yabu Pushelberg and most recently refreshed by Solid Design Creative, is clean and simple, yet absolutely stylish - a brilliant reflection of Canada's rich raw environment. That same brilliance is captured through the flavours and textures of Chef Ron McKinlay’s inspired regional Canadian cuisine.

    As usual the service was friendly and professional. The white wine arrived a little warm but the sommelier apologized and put it on ice right away. First, the mains were terrific, the halibut and the risone were both flavourful and balanced. I had the tuna tartare which was covered in a bit too much mousse for me, the tuna was a bit lost in the dish. Certainly not the only restaurant, but the prices are pretty eye-watering.

    Sitting at the chef’s rail, we were completely immersed in the rhythm of the kitchen. Our server, Scotty, was incredibly thoughtful and had an amazing knowledge of the Toronto food scene. The chef and sous-chefs were so friendly when they came to explain each dish on the tasting menu. We are looking forward to our next visit!

    Canoe is an upscale restaurant which offers unique and original dishes that were both flavorful and expertly crafted. The atmosphere was refined and elegant, with excellent service to match. The restaurant was located on the top floor, featuring a fantastic view of the city. Overall, we had an unforgettable dining experience and would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a truly elevated culinary experience in a luxurious setting.

    I ate solo so perhaps the loss in points is based on the limited food options. Drinks, service, ambiance are great - dare I say beyond however, the limited menu and variety is the only reason this isn’t a 10/10 for solo travelers.

    We had the tasting menu….it was wonderful, perfectly spaced out…the wine pairing were perfect. But the best part was the waiter Nicholas…he was so knowledgeable and articulate in explaining how the food and wines worked together. Will definitely go back…the view of the city was spectacular. 2 thumbs up!!!

    I had my birthday dinner there with my partner and we had the tasting menu with wine pairings. The food and the service were both impeccable and we left absolutely stuffed and the perfect amount of tipsy. The staff and management made us feel extremely special. I should also mention that the view was stunning. Special thanks to our server Adam who had answers to each and every question regarding the menu whether it was on the food or the wine. A complete professional. Thank you all so much. Looking forward to our next visit.

    Went to Canoe for New Year’s Eve, and very disappointing. Booked seats at the bar and instead they initially tried to put us at a table in the back corner of the bar area - no view at all. Eventually (after a lot of pressing) they moved us to a window table which was much better. Had the tasting menu which was very average, nicely cooked halibut and beef fillet, but the accompaniments were awful - the chopped mushrooms with the fillet in particular tasted like soil - and a tarragon amuse bouche that was more likely to clear my stomach than my palate. The atmosphere was quite stale and the overall finish felt like a cheap canteen rather than a high end restaurant. The service was the only saving grace which was very good. For close to $900 including tax and tip for two tasting menus and a bottle of wine (and not a particularly expensive bottle) this is not a place I’ll be coming back to.

    The service was like a joke we ordered orange juice but it went bad and tasted like vinegar. We asked server to taste or smell it he did not and insist the juice was fresh made, he brought a new one which is normal but he kept saying that was regular juice to him. The food are ‘Canadian” food but are just a bad combination of many overcooked ingredients and a little main that was described on the menu. Overall only the view worth the price if you are looking for a good meal this is not where you want to try.
