Value review insights for Ontario, Canada, Restaurants

10/10 Delicious! The loaded Baked potato was a dream! Atmosphere was super chill and the ladies working were super friendly! Very affordable 👌 👏 👍

2 patties + Kola Champagne is a staple order growing up in Toronto. $5 - can’t beat those prices in this day and age. Patties were a 7.8/10. Highlight was the patty crust. 👌🏽 If you’re at Union and you need something to hold you over until you catch the train, definitely a go to.💯

3 Star Food rating based on price. 4 Star for taste. 3 Star Service rating based on interaction with our waitress. Treat every client as if it's your first. Offer your name, check-in during the meal. (5 stars to the lovely lady seating everyone) 5 Star Atmosphere rating based on this place being very cool and retro. We grabbed some lunch before attending a play at the CAA Ed Mirvish Theater across the street (Victoria entrance). Outdoor small lot parking next door ($20 or $35 "event" parking fee) It's a cute little diner and the lady in charge was VERY friendly and attentive. Service staff was efficient from what I witnessed. Our wait time for a table was approximately 30 minutes. They do not rush you after you've paid your bill. The ambience and feel of an old school diner is definitely present. 2 or 4 person booths (one booth/chair combo) and counter seating and one bench/chair table in the window area for larger group of 5 maybe max. There was also one table with chairs outside. Restrooms are downstairs. (not accessible). The Senator is not cheap. Club Sandwich, French Toast, 2 coffees, total was $80 with tip.

4 adults for dinner. We were early, to avoid a Saturday rush. Shrimp Wonton soup was decent, 5 wonton in a bowl providing about 5 small bowl servings, The broth was a little insipid and watery. Shrimp in Lobster Sauce was disappointing. The shrimp were plump and tasty, but the sauce was gloopy cornstarchy, congealing almost immediately. No taste or sign of lobster in the sauce. Swatow Special Roast Duck had nice chunks of boneless duck with good flavour, but no crispy skin. Green beans with garlic in black bean sauce were excellent: sweet crisp beans in a wonderfully savory sauce. We shared 2 orders of steamed rice. Not expensive, cash only. Still looking for a decent replacement for Lee Garden...

4 of us had a preshow early dinner so the restaurant was empty for most of the meal. We each had an appy and a main, a cocktail and 2 bottles of wine-we finished with dessert and port. We were having a nice meal, the food was really good-the foi gras was gorgeous, the tartars both really good. For the mains 3 of us had the duck. It was ok but seemed dry, I even said to my husband that it needed a sauce. We ended up garnishing with the Kale to give it some life beyond the dryness. It was the waiters recommendation so we figured he knew the duck was a dry dish. We didn't remember the description on the menu-DUCK EGG BEARNAISE that is the missing something! Ok I'm not going to lie that was probably what made at least 2 of us order the duck. Again our bad for not realizing it at the time because I think we missed out-everything else was so good! So, what seemed an great dinner (prices are reasonable for the level of food)is now, in retrospect the morning after, a sad regret that we didn't remember what would have made this a spectacular dinner. The atmosphere is quite nice, well spaced tables and cool rustic décor make it a very nice space. The service was very good as well, attentive staff, well timed. Worth a try but be aware they might miss things so you (as a diner)will have to be more aware.

Love Richmond Station!! Please order the mushroom & sausage fettuccine, one of the best pasta dishes I've ever tasted! Also had the STN burger and pate, both were delicious! Love the no tipping culture here. A huge shoutout to our server KRISH, who was very accommodating, friendly, and consistent, making our dinner service spectacular! Thanks Krish - you rock!!

We recently had dinner at 360 Restaurant in the CN Tower in downtown Toronto. My husband had reserved a romantic table by the window and arranged a small extra with champagne and strawberries, which we appreciated. The table location was nice, but it’s worth noting that the restaurant slowly rotates. If you have a sensitive balance system, this movement could potentially cause motion sickness. We were first served a small plate of melon wrapped in prosciutto, which was pleasant but quite minimal. The menu itself was somewhat difficult to navigate. For starters, my husband ordered the grilled octopus and I chose the beef tartare. The octopus was good and well prepared. Unfortunately, the beef tartare was disappointing. Instead of a typical tartare texture, it resembled finely ground beef and was presented as a flat, round patty—almost like a small pancake. It was not something I would recommend. For the main course we both ordered the Nova Scotia lobster. You can choose either half (65 CAD) or a whole lobster (125 CAD), and we both chose the whole lobster. Based on the price and description, we expected something more substantial than simply being served one large lobster each. The final bill came to over 400 CAD, which felt very disappointing considering the overall experience. We were honestly left without words. For comparison, we have dined at places like Joey’s and The Keg where a steak and lobster combination costs around 60 CAD, with a lobster add-on of about 25 CAD. In those cases, the value for money felt far better. While the view from the CN Tower is certainly unique, the food quality and overall value did not match the price in our experience.
