Bardi's remains one of the best steaks in Toronto. Impeccable food and service and they know how to get you in and out pre game or concert. One of my all time favs in the city. Also, the cheese bread is an absolute must.

I’ve been to Bardi’s a few times now and it’s always a great experience. Whether you are going for a date, with some friends or a bachelor party they have you covered. The service is always incredibly and Jamie is the best. Always greets me by name and does a great job of making you feel important. The food is absolutely terrific, the steaks are always cooked to perfection. I also recommend the shrimp cocktail, the size of the shrimps are massive. The decor is slightly outdated but it’s definitely your traditional steakhouse which I love. It’s also conveniently located steps from union station and near Scotiabank arena so it’s a great stop before a game. I will 100% be returning again as soon as possible. Highly recommended .

Toronto is sleeping on this spot! It's been here for a very very long time, the food and the service are unparalleled. This is a real deal old school steak and upscale meal spot. I try to arrange my business dinners here whenever I can and enjoy seeing first time guests morph from being a bit reticent upon seeing the decor (could use an update) to utter delight as soon as they meet the waiter and have their first bite.There aren't a lot of spots that offer family style steak service anymore; they've always been so amazing with me to create a family service from anything on the menu. Don't skip the cheese bread, either! Bardi's is on the higher end for cost, but you absolutely get what you pay for.Places like this are what make Toronto unique and worth visiting!

Old school restaurant with friendly and loving staff and even better food. I was given free cake and chocolate on my date. Really loved the personal attention given to each customer, 10/10 hospitality.

Outstanding as usual. Service is top notch and the food is awesome. Steaks cooked perfectly. Also; a substantial wine list to make your choice. I have visited many times and will continue to do so in the future!

The food was quite good and the steaks are always well-prepared and of excellent quality. The value proposition, however, is fairly lacking relative to other steakhouses. Ultimately, one is generally better off going either to a more or less expensive establishment, for the value.

The server was very pleasant, knowledgeable and catered to our needs. Food was fresh, proper temperature and as ordered. Server was attentive and checked up on us as necessary. Would definitely recommend and come back again. 5/5!!
It's a little outdated inside but what a meal we had. Drinks food and service was all great. I had a 35oz steak and it was so delicious. My friends all had different cuts of meat not as big, they all really loved the food. 6 men 7 appetizers of course mains as well a bottle of wine many drinks. $200 a person including tip. We also had desert.

Bardi's hasn't been relevant since Ella Fitzgerald walked in! If you are looking for a decent meal at a good/decent steakhouse price go to Bardi's. If you actually want a great meal, go to just about(minus 1 or 2 obvious ones) every other steakhouse in the city. Harbour 60 and Hy's are close by and are way better. It's 2024 Bardi's you guys need a whole new redo top to bottom!

Foods - excellent, their steaks were soooo goodServices - formal old style, so a bit cold. A bit of smiling face added to the style would be great, a bit of regular check in would show a formal and caring style od tgis new era.Atmosphere - traditional old style, tiny space (i am petit and found it hard to get in my seat!), the seats were shrinking.... so old in every senses. I expected old style but classy everything, to the price we paid

We went to Bardi's for our anniversary dinner. It was absolutely terrific! The shrimp cocktail was beautiful, fresh and ample. My wife and I ordered steaks with baked potatoes and a side of mushrooms to share. The steaks were perfectly char-grilled to order. The meat was delicious. Best baked potato ever! One of the finest steak dinners that we have ever had. Mushrooms Rocked? Ali was our server and he provided perfect service. We were given a complemetary dessert for our anniversary. The manager stopped by to check on us. We were treated like VIPs. Totally Recommend BARDI's
Our waiter, Eugene, was friendly and fast. The host for the evening was very friendly. The appetizer crab cakes were miniscule for the price and quality was lacking. The appetizer Garlic Shrimp were tasty. The steak was ok but the baked potato was terrible. Dry and tasted odd. Overall - $300 for two people was way over priced for the quality and quantity. It's obvious the restaurant relies on decades old awards rather than giving the place a good clean and focusing on flavor.
