Fancy

Critically acclaimed to be among Canada’s best restaurants, Canoe's unique location high atop the TD Bank Tower affords a breathtaking view of the city and Lake Ontario. The design, originally conceptualized by noted designers Yabu Pushelberg and most recently refreshed by Solid Design Creative, is clean and simple, yet absolutely stylish - a brilliant reflection of Canada's rich raw environment. That same brilliance is captured through the flavours and textures of Chef Ron McKinlay’s inspired regional Canadian cuisine.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Ron McKinlay

MICHELIN Plate
2022

From the OpenTable editors: Jaw-dropping city views from wrap-around, floor-to-ceiling windows are what first draw diners to Canoe, but exceptional dishes that celebrate Canada’s homegrown cuisine have kept them coming back for nearly 30 years. Stylish, Canadiana-inspired decor and a stellar tasting menu make this one of Toronto’s ultimate special-occasion spots.

Saw hair on my salmon, yes they gave us a new one but just ruined the whole experience. Maybe my expectations are too high since it was backed-up with renowned chef/s. God bless!

The rationale not to offer bread because it may have to be tossed uneaten, with charging for bread if desired, is bogus. If you have bread to sell you will have unsold bread to toss. Having to pay to soak in wonderful sauces puts a sour point in an otherwise wonderful meal. One pays a premium price for a premium meal experience. There is no justification for skimping. Add $1 per meal to cover bread goes unnoticed. Having to pay for bread if asked is self-defeating

Perfect restaurant to start celebrating my birthday month. Drinks were good, clams fresh, lamb entree excellent. Service attentive. View across the lake and CN Tower made for a memorable evening. Only fly in the ointment was asking to be moved to another table after a large party came in with an infant no more than a month old and was seated next to us. I’m not paying that kind of money to be subjected to a crying baby…and yes it did start crying within 29 minutes.

Our 1st time dining here since it opened many years ago. We sat at the Chef’s Rail. We were celebrating our Anniversary. These are great seats to watch the action in the kitchen. Our server Sarah was informative, personable & absolutely amazing! The food was delicious! The only items we didn’t enjoy on the tasting menu was the carrot cake & the white chocolate raspberry petit four. The carrot cake was too acidic. The white chocolate was too sweet!
