   We were staying at the Ritz-Carlton and were looking for a reasonably priced restaurant close to our hotel. After checking out several choices we decided to give the Shore Club a try, due to proximity and their menu. Our reservation was for 8:30 and I have to say our dining experience was amazing. The ambience of the Shore Club, the waitstaff, and everyone we met was absolutely lovely. There was no rush to get us out, and the food was prepared and presented with class. We called the su chef to our table, since the chef had just left, to congratulate his work. One dinner was the salmon and the other was the rainbow trout. Our server, Monty, was very proud explaining the origin of our fresh food. Our final course of Crème Brûlée was also delicious and presented with birthday candles since we both were celebrating our 70 birthdays. I would totally revisit the Shore Club when I visit Toronto again.

   Everything was tremendous From the ambience to the awesome food, the drinks to the excellent service it was an amazing time I wish I remembered our waiters name - can’t believe I forgot it. If you can look at the reservation, time and we were seated you should give him a proper thank you We eat out several times per week and will definitely be back

   Food was a little over seasoned today. Gravalax was much saltier than usual, and fried chicken was a little on the salty side, especially with the gravy.

   The Shore Club is a supposedly high end restaurant that can safely be skipped. The food is okay, but not amazing, the service is iffy, and prices are fairly high. We were there with a group of 5, 4 ordering steaks and 1 having lamb. The lamb looked good but wasn't that great, like it had been sitting out for a bit and got dry. The steaks seemed to be good cuts of meat, but every one was cooked wrong (or put on the wrong plates). The rare/blue came out medium rare, 2 medium rares came medium, and the medium well was closer to medium rare. We didn't send them back since we were well into the meals before the server came by to check and no one wanted to make a stink about it. The server was also keen to upsell. Upsold on the wine, "suggested" additional sides, and then seemed to conveniently misunderstand the order (to his benefit). We ordered bearnaise sauce with lobster (a $12 addition on the menu, suggesting bearnaise sauce with chunks of lobster in it) but instead received bearnaise sauce with a full lobster tail (a $50 addition). I'm sure if I had said something the waiter would have protested that it was an honest mistake, but on top of the other upselling it just felt like the restaurant was trying to pad the bill. Outside of the steaks and lamb, the sides were mostly okay. Shrimp appetizer, fries, broccoli, and mushroom sides were alright but nothing special. Dessert, however, was excellent. So, dinner for 5 people, with drinks, tax, and tip, ended up at $1000. Very high end pricing, so it's unfortunate the food and service don't match.

    Service was great. Calamari was good, steak was good. Lobster bisque was brown with mushy lobster in it. Not real good. And when I asked for fresh black pepper, the server brought me a small pepper mill and put it on the table. Guess I’m used to them asking if I want pepper and then grinding it - the pepper from the mill they gave me was just powdered

    Everything was to perfection. Shrimp cocktail was AMAZING. We also shared beef tartar. I had prawns and scallops with an herb Pernod sauce absolutely to die for. Was EXCELLENT as were the steaks. My only complaint a touch to much salt on the fries and in my sauce. Lastly I had a Sparkling Star which was the most refreshing drink I have ever had.

    Food was good not great. Ceaser salad was good but not crispy cold. They allowed us a half order of onion rings which were great snd crispy. Asparagus was cooked perfectly but my steak bone in was just ok and the stuffed trout was good but not anything to write home about. The service was great. Nice but not outstanding!

    Been to Shore Club many times. This time, early reservation...several items "sold out"/not available made it somewhat challenging to order actual dinner. Subsituted one main dish/the dinner swimming in sauce...i have had prior, and was far better. Server was perfect, and did every thing possible to assist, so all good here. Hopefully just an off evening...

    My friend and I meet every once in a while to splash out on a steak dinner - we’ve tried a number of steak houses around town. While we have had better steaks, the service by Monty was above the fray - it’s been weeks since that dinner and I’m still charmed by his careful and kind attention and the atmosphere in general of the place.

    The half tower was great as were our appetizers, entrees and dessert. If you love bread get the artisinal bread appetizer as well. Our waiter was attentive and had some great recommendations. I had the 14oz New York while my wife had the wild haddock. Brussels bowl, broccoli and mushroom sides were pared down as per our server's suggestion and he was spot on. Great wine selection.

    Went there for a birthday dinner and had a great time. The food was delicious and fresh. The waiters were kind, professional, and insightful about their menus and wine list. We didn't end up ordering dessert, but the waiter was kind enough to give us a tiny bite-size chocolate dessert since it was my partner's birthday. Overall, Highly recommend it, and would go again, especially for special occasions.
