I have been here multiple times for business meal during lunch and dinner. It's always nice and the friendly staff there always makes me feel so relax and easy. The steaks are awesome. I love the lunch menu. A good selection, scallops are to die for appetizers.

Celebrated my husband’s birthday and the food + service was incredible. Everyone was very attentive, sweet, personable and friendly.
This place is super underrated as it is a timeless gem.

Great location for events at Scotiabank arena. Excellent food and service and priced daily for a downtown steakhouse serving this quality.

Classic steakhouse, loved it!

First time there, and won't be returning. For that price point there are many more options for a $700 meal for two. They didn't have mushrooms (at a steak house on a Friday night???) so had to get an alternative. I got the porterhouse, plate was cold and sucked the heat right out of the steak, server was attentive but the experience wasn't seamless, coats weren't taken before we got to table led to an awkward pause and stand around. Go to Barbarian's.....

Bardis is amazing. From the servers to the food. It is truly an all rounded 5 star dining experience. They make you feel at home and provide the best service. The Bardis special, shrimps and cheese bread are my go to. When in the mood, I always add mushrooms, they’re phenomenal! Must have and must try restaurant

Steaks were exceptionally fantastic... done perfectly and very flavourful. My dinner guest was absolutely delighted!!

Absolute ridiculous behaviour from the server. Was there for a business dinner. Food was good but the server was absolutely embarrassing. He wasn’t happy with the tip so he actually came back and started charging “so my service was bad? it must have been bad that you gave me only 5%” First of all the man needs to learn some math. $30 on $320 bill is not 5%. And secondly who does that? He served just 2 people for about an hour. Was average at best in hospitality so $30 was more than fair. But he made sure to come back and make me give him more! So eventually I gave him $50 because I wanted him out of my face but DEFINITELY NOT COMING BACK and neither will anyone from my company. Been to Jacobs and many better steakhouses but never imagined any restaurant would hire such jokers to serve. Train your people. Teach them basic etiquettes. Asking for feedback on service is good but charging a customer and asking for more money is absolute crass.

First time visit to this Toronto Landmark. The atmosphere was casual and not all stuffy or pretentious. Attentive Service by Chris. Steak which is why you go there was delicious and cooked to perfection. Peppercorn sauce worth the $6. Fries were a little disappointing. I am having trouble describing other than heavy and chewy???? Stick with baked potato. French onion soup delicious. Garlic cheese bread a perfect starter. Extensive wine list. Service was so fast my steak came out before my friend and I had finished our appetizers. Would have preferred better timing. Maybe we were talking too much. lol Great location if going to a game at Scotiabank Arena like we were. Only a 10 Minute walk. Either outside down York St or underground using PATH. Recommend reservations so not disappointed. Green P parking lot entrance beside their front door off York St. $25 event parking cost.
It's cheaper than most steak houses and much much better than the keg. I would go back for sure. Service and food was good.

A fantastic meal and incredible service. Thank you Jamie for sharing your passion and knowledge of wine, as well as treating us to a viewing of the wine cellar.

This is my favourite “Toronto steakhouse “. The steaks are well prepared and presented. The sides are a lesson for anyone who likes to cook and the wine list is well thought out. Bardi's never disappoints.

Jamie is the best waiter in Toronto by far! Don't even need a menu he anticipates our every need!
