Nothing to write home about. Over priced for what it was, very cold inside as well and no ambiance other than a Christmas party going on for some company in the other room.

Overbooked and/or understaffed...main course took over an hour after apps, our group was 17 but they should have had an additional server helping out. Great ambiance, bottle service was seamless and well done, will give it a try again but disappointed first go-around

Lovely ambiance. Good service. Only one other couple in the whole restaurant so it felt like a private venue! I did not enjoy the soup as it needed more flavour. It was served uniqely though but lukewarm. My sisters enjoyed their avocado and beet salads. I tried the beets and they were delicious. The gnocchi was fantastic and my sister and I both ordered it. My other sister ordered the lobster mac 'n cheese which was good although the lobster needed to be cleaned better. Bits of shell in it was not very appetizing. Desserts were delicious. We had the passion fruit cheesecake and creme brulee trio. The pistachio creme brulee was to die for. Brewed coffee was spot on. Piping hot too! Waiter was very attentive and friendly. All in all a great experience and we would go back. I live in Waterdown and sisters in Oakville. We came to TO for a show at The Prince of Wales Theatre and I found the restaurant on-line. All restaurants close to the theatre on King were booked.

If I could give 0 stars I would. I went to celebrate my 30th birthday and Brassai single handedly ruined my birthday by serving my guests and I an hour and a half after we ordered. The food was cold the manager unapologetic. They brought me the wrong steak and when asked to get the correct one they told me there was no time to make another one for me because it was too late. It may have been too late because they took almost 2 hours to bring our food. Our COLD food. I cut into my steak and it was a medium when I requested blue rare. I sent the steak back because I couldn't eat it. My husband had to send his steak back because it wasnt the right temp and very cold. The manager gave us a lame excuse that they had a party of 70 they had to accommodate and their kitchen was not equipped to handle so many parties at once. If you're not equipped to handle that many reservations maybe you shouldn't accept that many reservations. I ended up eating a hot dog on the street as no other restaurants were open. Needless to say, thanks to Brassai for ruining my milestone birthday.

We waited more than 1 hour for our food. For the price for a meal, the wait time should not be that long. Perhaps they can hire more kitchen staff. Our waiter felt bad and offered us complimentary drinks and dessert but at the end we felt bad for him. Because we waited so long, our night had to be cut short as the next place we were planning to go after dinner cancelled our reservation since we were late.
