Fancy

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.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Ron McKinlay

MICHELIN Plate
2022

From the OpenTable editors: Jaw-dropping city views from wrap-around, floor-to-ceiling windows are what first draw diners to Canoe, but exceptional dishes that celebrate Canada’s homegrown cuisine have kept them coming back for nearly 30 years. Stylish, Canadiana-inspired decor and a stellar tasting menu make this one of Toronto’s ultimate special-occasion spots.

Level of service has gone way down hill. Corcking fee was increased substantiay higher to $70 per bottle. Forgot birthday/half the items we ordered. Food arrived cold. Overall unpleasant staff. Evening was perfectly adequate but hardly anything to rave about. Likely won’t come back.

Everything was exactly as advertised, yet it fell a little short on my expectations (inflated by recommendations). The tuna lacked complexity; the duck was excellent, a well-thought dish balanced the sweetness of the pear. Overall a good experience, but not quite great.

We had a beautiful evening, dining last night. The service and the view were spectacular. We tried their tasting menu which was really interesting. The wine pairing was not my favourite but it’s just a personal preference. Would absolutely return!

Food did not live up to the expectations. Tasting menu had some bland choices, while others lacked cohesion and bordered on simplicity. Presentation of a couple items was excellent.

Overpriced for what you get. Good service, good ambiance, great views, but there are better value places in the City.
