Very pleasant experience: short but varied and tasty menus, welcoming personal, nice atmosphere - one of Toronto's gems.
The food was fantastic. It's a culinary school, and some of the servers are still figuring things out. Do not order decaf with your dessert. It was the only disappointing food item. Totally worth it. The food was great. I would go back, no question.
I sat at the bar and had a really nice meal. The three courses were served a bit too close to each other but everything was tasty and well plated. The entree was a bit too filling for me (broccolini salad) but the cauliflower puree had an exceptional smoothness to it and the salad was very fresh. The main dish (sea bream grenobloise) was great, but I wish the fillet was a bit bigger. The deconstructed lemon tart was nice too. I certainly will be back.
Super impressed! Went for winterlicious! The food was exceptional. Looking forward to going back for another meal!!
The food and service was excellent. All staff and students were very pleasant , accommodating and helpful. It was our first visit and I would definitely recommend the experience. The only suggestion is too change the address to the exact location on Frederick St. Parking nearby Thank you
My daughter and I enjoyed the sea bream and chocolate mousse crème brûlée! We came for lunch on January 23rd, a frigid day. For the first hour we were the only diners and received very attentive service. We will definitely come again. Thank you to the George Brown culinary students and staff!
Not only does this bar sell alcohol at 5 am they sell illegal cigarettes to the public, police are on the case

These are our future chefs and boy do they have some talent! Food presented with flair and cooked with passion. Our group loved the tastes we encountered. Lucky this place exists to teach and share. Please visit
Great experience! Will be back! Service was fantastic as well as the food! Thank you Chen!
It is so important to provide balanced feedback that will encourage students. First the positive feedback: the lovely person who served my table was terrific. She was personable, patient and very accommodating. She immediately provided assistance because I was unable to use the stairs to use the washroom facilities. This can be a difficult and awkward experience but she was so lovely. She listened as I explained how important this dinner was to me having gotten out of the hospital. The goat and beet salad, sea bass and ginger pumpkin cheesecake were beautifully presented and quite tasty. The carrot coulis was subtle and tasty. Due to dietary restrictions I had a substitution of Brussel sprouts and they were delicious. Constructive feedback: the initial host when I arrived was quite cold and off putting. He seemed to act like I didn't belong there and suggested a seat at the bar. I explained I had a reservation. On a more positive note he did offer to lower the volume of the music when I explained I had a hard time hearing. The portions of food were surprisingly small and for the price point they were not worth the cost. I've been to other student program dining halls where the portions and the pricing were very reasonable. Regarding dietary restrictions, I was surprised to see that they did not have options or substitutions for low carb bread. Again this adds or takes away from the overall experience.

Three of us celebrated a birthday in this pretty, comfortable room on a quiet Monday evening. The food was outstanding - from a delicious bread basket through the mussels app, lamb, fish and chicken entrees and 3 desserts (including a pumpkin cheesecake with a Happy Birthday message written in chocolate). Also a nice, not overpriced selection of drinks. Our main server seemed very new at her job and a little unfamiliar with the menu items - but these are students learning their craft and we had no problem being patient with her. All in all, a lovely evening out.
Our dining experience at the Chef's table was wonderful. It was our first time dining there and we were extremely impressed with the food, service and ambience. As good as any 5-star restaurant in Toronto. We really en joyed the wine too - which was a collaboration with Niagara College. I will definitely be back!
Always an enjoyable dining experience - with the GBC hospitality students in serving and cooking roles. One of the best kept dining locations in Toronto.
Excellent service and food as always. Thoroughly impressed ! The Chefs House has become our go-to restaurant for special occasions. Thank you. Looking forward to our next visit.
This was my 5th time eating at The Chef's House. Overall, it was a pleasant experience except for the following: Although the bread was good it was served cold, it seems like it was just taken out of the fridge. The black forest cake tasted a bit stale and was very dry. The lamb dish was very good and well plated.
