Restaurants near Fairmont Royal York Hotel

Great location, dinner menu and wine list! All 4 of us ha$ a wonderful experience.

Booked a lunch for 9, (including 6 grandkids) as a pre - lion king treat! We moved it from 12.00 to 11.30 due to the early 1.00pm start. The restaurant is a perfect location for the theatres, I find Earls menu interesting and well presented. Our waitress was attentive and made sure we got timely service! A very nice start to a lovely afternoon…

I introduced my friend to the various O&B restaurants and we were booked for Maison Selby on Monday but then I got an email about Canoe. I told him about the Christmas Eve lunch. The staff called to confirm and I told them this is his first visit. They came through and had us seated at the table facing the CN Tower. The food was phenomenal as it always is. I had the onion soup and it blew my mind. I am not a soup person but seeing Parmesan custard in the description peaked my curiosity. On the surface a pureed soup but it looked like art with the green oil drizzle and black pepper delicately grounded and sprinkled. Below the surface were the caramelized onions and parmesan custard. Ohhh the flavour sensations having a party on my tastebuds! He had the Waldorf and said it was delicious. We both had the beef Wellington. So tender and flavourful and that was just the meat! I actually did the foodie happy dance in my chair nom nom nomming! The roasted veggies, deep fried kale and mashed potatoes were lovely. To be honest they weren’t hot but I wasn’t going to ruin the dining experience by saying anything. I thought the pastry was perfect, mine fell open in two layers. He would have liked his to be flakier on the outside layer. He had the sticky toffee pudding and absolutely loved it. I had the white chocolate cheesecake with the pistachio crème anglaise and raspberry sorbet & I loved it. The flavours and textures were my vibe! I tried two mocktails. I loved the ambrosia! The flavour combos were amazing! Then I tried the gala. The drink itself was underwhelming compared to the first but its saving grace was the fruit. I asked our lovely server and she said maraschino cherries. No way! Not the ones you get on top of sundaes. Way better! They were the star of that drink along with the really cool rectangular ice cube! Lovely seeing Oscar from our Maison Selby days. Told him the venue switch story for lunch and he was the 4th staff to say: Really? Love it! O&B ❤️

Dining here was an absolute delight. The food was flavorful and expertly prepared, complemented by the restaurant’s elegant and inviting ambiance. This was my second visit, and it was just as impressive as the first. Our server went above and beyond, making the experience even more enjoyable. The celebratory dessert stole the show with its exquisite presentation and attention to detail. A truly memorable experience!

Everything was excellent and staff very attentive and professional! Loved the grilled octopus 24 oz porterhouse (Alberta aged beef) lobster mac was very good as well. No complaints whatsoever!! Keep up the great service and great food!
