45 Best Bar & Grill in Toronto

“Do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!“

“This location is one of the last few standing (in my humble opinion) that I’d give a 4 star or higher rating to, across the board. The food was great and came out in a timely manner. The waitresses/staff are very friendly, inviting and most importantly, professional! I’d like to give a special shout out to our waitress Rachel. Thanks again for a job well done.“

“Me and my group had Bryce as a server. I was dining in with DHF as part of an event, and having Bryce as our server was an absolute delight! He made us feel welcomed and lifted the atmosphere with his banter and quick service. He felt more like a friend than anything! 😊 Props to him!“

“I contracted food poisoning from the meditteran salad...contacted the restaurant privately..no response...adding insult to gastric injury. cannot recommend in the slightest“

“Jack Astors on Front Street has a great atmosphere and is definitely worth going to on game day for any sport. The drinks are great and reasonably priced and also there is a happy hour. The atmosphere is really welcoming, with a lot of Blue Jays banners and lights everywhere.“

“I went there to see some live music and the atmosphere was fun and the people that work there were friendly. The music scene is great for people who love the blues and the food is really tasty! Awesome tacos!🤩💥“

“Only stayed in Toronto for 2 nights and spent both of them here. Good service, good food, great beer and a very friendly owner who went out of his way to talk to us“

“Awesome bar, great quality food and friendly service. What really tops it off is the atmosphere! The regulars make for alot of fun for a chat, and the dart board + foosball setup is an absolute win.
Particular shoutout to Aryn, the place wouldn't be what it is without her service and company!“

“Excellent service. Our waiter MarkB was very pleasant. Made dining a nice experience.“

“Nachos good just order with extra cheese it’s 1.89 for extra cheese“

“Incredible place. Delicious hot creamy garlic wings, AMAZING fries, and odd pairing perhaps but the lotus leaf wrapped pork sticky rice was a delight. Good price for all. Fantastic warm service and bonus that it was someone’s birthday at Friday night karaoke and we saw a soul wrenching rendition of “Part of Your World” from the Little Mermaid. Only 4 stars because they were playing UFC which isn’t one of my favourite sports but it is a sports bar after all. In my heart it’s 4.5 stars. I’ll be back to try some of the other 79 wing flavours.“

“Not your same old same old establishment. Neat place to chill.“

“If you're looking for a genuine taste of Northeastern Chinese barbecue, this is the spot. The menu offers a fantastic selection of skewers, and the meat is incredibly fresh, with a variety of cuts and marinades. Each skewer is grilled to perfection, delivering that authentic, smoky flavor you'd find in China. Don't skip the handmade yogurt—it's creamy, tangy, and the perfect way to finish the meal. A must-visit for anyone craving real Chinese grilled skewers.“

“i love it! The outside patio has a relaxing ambiance. Quick service as well.“

“You dont come here for the atmosphere but the patio is very nice. Excellent pub food and service. Definitely recommend the onion rings (made in house) and the chicken wings (big and tasty).“

“It’s great so far Good food. Good beer. Great staff. Definitely coming here again“

“An amazing experience every visit! Consistently excellent food and outstanding service.“

“Went for dinner last night and had a few pints. Beer selection is amazing BTW. Ordered the flat iron steak medium rare. Plate came and the presentation was great, but the steak was raw. I can eat rare, but this was blue rare. Very politely let my server know and she apologized and placed an order for a new one. The manager then came to the table and apologized and said he’d remove my meal from the bill. I told him that was very generous and appreciated. Second plate came and it was cooked perfect. Errors happen, but the customer service more than made up for it, and I recommend The Craft for this reason.“

“Always a good choice, great beer, great friends and great food. What more can you ask for, oh yes and great staff.“

“Nice patio, band from 4-7pm every Sunday on back patio...
We order the prime rib (medium rare) but came out bit overcooked...but still good...only reason didn't get 5 stars bc wait staff asked how we'd like it done...

But I'd come again and try a different meal...“

“We stumbled upon Bar Wellington by accident, and we are so happy we did 😊great pint of beer and the food ? Wow, not your typical pub grub we had the mussels and the flavour in the broth was next level, the bugger was juicy and flavoursome and the house fries we excellent to, the place is family friendly. We will definitely be back.“

“Amazing Vibe to the place..would love going back“

“Gabby’s – Guildwood Village Shopping Centre Four of us visited Gabby’s in the Guildwood Village Shopping Centre yesterday for lunch. The restaurant opened last year, and this was our first time there. After seeing so many great reviews online, we decided to check it out. We were greeted right away and seated where we preferred. Our server, Sarah, was wonderful—friendly, attentive, and helpful in guiding us with our drink choices. Between the four of us, we ordered: Chicken wings with fries Onion rings Garlic bread Buffalo chicken wrap with fries Braised beef stone-fired pizza Everyone agreed the food was excellent. I had the pizza, and it was sensational—the beef was tender and perfectly portioned, pairing beautifully with the onions and mushrooms. The restaurant has a great atmosphere, whether you’re enjoying a meal on the patio, dining indoors, or sitting at the bar surrounded by plenty of TVs. Service was impeccable. The washrooms were very clean, though they are located in the basement. If you’ve had a few drinks, you might prefer the accessible washroom on the main floor, as the stairs are steep. We all agreed we will definitely be back—there are so many other tempting menu items we want to try. The amazing service we received from Sarah made the experience even more enjoyable. Thank you, Gabby’s!“

“I decided to try this hidden gem for takeout on my birthday. This place was absolutely surprising. Food was unbelievable and decently priced. $156 for 5 people to share and we ordered about 10-12 meals I think. You do not want to sleep on this place. The girl that took our payment (maybe also bartender?) was a doll and so friendly. I actually called after we ate to say how good it was lol. 10/10“

“We had good food and an amazing welcome at Union Social tonight. Came to eat and enjoy the company of an old friend after many years apart, and Uni Soc was a great choice. Enjoyed salads (tuna on spinach, great dressing!) Chicken Cesar, and the creme brulee for dessert was yum! Our server, Megan F, was friendly, attentive without hovering or rushing anything, and even though she had a large party in another part of the room she made us feel well looked after. This helped make our fun evening evening more special, and her kind manager, who was also very welcoming, even offered treats on the house for our celebration. Thanks! We'll be back!“

“Inside of the One King West hotel, atmosphere is great and everything we ate was good and large portion. We really likes the salad which came as a side to the burger.
If youa are a guest of the hotel, there is a 20% off the price for lunch menu.“

“Axis doesn't bill itself as one of the new trendy dive bars, nor does it attempt to be your local Irish pub... But it somehow does both really well.

There are items of food here that are quite remarkable and I mean that in the best of ways.. one of the best seafood pastas in the city, both in terms of value ample portion size and actual seafood.

Drink prices are quite Fair and the locals are friendly enough that if there isn't a table for you solos out there, you're more than welcome to join one“

“Yaz the server is very nice— the chicken wings are super crispy and delicious!! Price is also the bomb!!’ I have been coming here for years! Good place, good vibes, good food!!“

“We happened upon this restaurant by a recommendation .....omg....what a diamond of a place... enter through the front door on College Street and wander through to the amazing back patio.....the ambience is unbelievable, you are made to feel so comfortable and at home....our server was Peter who was beyond amazing....if you are looking for a place to go I definitely recommend this place......we are from Ottawa way but will be coming back...totally a 10 out of 10“

“I went here with a friend for lunch and enjoyed ourselves. The food was great, but took a very long time to come. We were waiting for over 40 minutes for two entrees when restaurant was more than half empty.
The waitress was a bit sassy and hard to flag down, but overall had a good vibe. The live music was a nice touch.“

“Generally go for patio lunch visits. Today had a lovely time as always. Great food, kind & knowledgeable service (from the bartender) and enjoyed the Sunday specials. 10/10 recommend for a non-pretentious Queen West experience that is somehow more affordable than other places in the neighborhood.“

“I had my birthday party at Skada Bar and it was fantastic! The manager Cici was so welcoming and accommodating. She decorated and organized the bar just the way I wanted and she provided food for all my guests. It was a super fun night and everyone that came told me what a great party it was. I would definitely recommend Skada Bar for parties and events!“

“Random google search for a “sports bar” and this did not disappoint. Natasha was the best, the first NFL game of the season was on, it was dollar wings, and the beers were decent Ontario craft. It’s a dive bar, but for nice people. 100% would go again.“

“First time @Dukes. I recommend this place & will be returning. We stopped in before a concert. Just in time for happy hour and It was also trivia night. The waiter was helpful and friendly.☺️“

“Amazing food !!!!! Service and staff Where incredible!!“

“This place is my number one place. Of all restaurants I know I favor it most. I always suggests to my friends to go to visit this restaurant. Whenever I I need a proper meal, this restaurant comes straightaway to my head. fresh and all sorts of food and a large list of dishes.professional crew, and great vibes. In addition to that, the tariff is fair. I sent my friends to this place with great pleasure.“

“Tony was a wonderful friend and owner of the bar. Michael the new owner and his wife are beautiful souls. The atmosphere is wonderful and the patrons are wonderful people there and lively. It's a small cozy place where everyone makes you feel accepted and welcomed. I always have a blast“

“Always feel welcomed there...staff are great. Love happy hour and wing night Mondays and Wednesdays. Drinks ane reasonably priced and poured. Ideal local bar on the Danforth“

“Very friendly husband and wife run, decent people, no drug problems, friendly atmosphere though night life there can be a tad loud, don't bring the kids past dinnertime, it being Parkdale it's tamer then alot of other Establishments that serve alcohol. ? I believe you can Celibate Birthday parties, etc.. just give them a heads up on your plans, they will try to accommodate you and yours! Prices are reasonable there's plaza parking limited, Salvation Army store next door just FYI! P.S. Owners do the serving, no waiters.

Parking: A few disabled spots, closest to the west side of lot. Not sure about unreasonable time periods not having a Vehicle I do know the area.

Wheelchair accessibility: Small lip at doorway but Lance has a piece of wood for entering, and most of the people are quite friendly and actually get the door for wheelchair etc....“

“The staff is very friendly, good service and real delicious food.“

“Been there twice and both times were good. The menus are easy to understand and nothing in neither of my orders both times I've went tasted undercooked. I've not tried their alcohol section because I'm not a drinker. Overall I would recommend this place to anyone who enjoys Mexican food.“

“Love this place. Great neighbourhood pub.“

“Its an unashamedly 'no frills' local Portuguese pub and if you appreciate it through that lens of that you'll have a good time.No beer on draft, cash only, although people here down to earth, nice and owner/Staff are so friendly and welcoming. Complimentary popcorn/snacks and people who don't take themselves too seriously having a good time. Well worth a visit??“

“Amazing venue to relax and have a good evening“

“It was a great 👍🏾 experience“
