    The food was amazing. The service was pretty bad. Our server seemed to be having a horrible day, she took the orders with attitude and basically looked troubled when spoken to. She made us all feel very uncomfortable. Also through out dinner she never came to see if we needed anything else. A suggestion, the tea bay should not be placed in the hot water when served, the blueberry tea was the most bitter tea I have ever had and it sort of ruined the whole experience since it was the last thing we ordered. When I brought it up to our server’s attention, instead of offering to bring hot water separately, she just started at me and then walked away.

    I went to KOST yesterday for my 19th birthday and It was such a lovely experience. The waiter Cass is so sweet, she went out of her way to make sure I was having a great time. The food and drinks were so good and the vibes at night were so much fun. I will definitely go back here.

    Kost is a very nice place with a great vibe. The view of the City is beautiful. However, it was freezing cold. The doors to the outside should not have been opened if there was no source of heat to at least keep patrons comfortable. Our food was disappointing. The pancakes were very dry and lacked flavour. My husbands omelette and potatoes were both burnt.

    The food was great, our waiter was great too and the people around us were really nice, social. The ambience was great. Only improvement I’d suggest. The lead hostess at the time we arrived was asked about our desire to sit outside under a shade and with us in front of her, she replied with stress in her voice and felt rude, since also she didn’t address us, it was a hectic morning, but regardless, I’d suggest minding these little details in the service.

    Terrible service! Took my friends visiting from another town and we were celebrating a birthday too, but the poor service made the experience not worthy of the hype. The reception lady and server were unfriendly and incredibly slow, so much so that the birthday surprise was ruined because we had to wait for the cake for a long time. There was also only one waiter serving the entire section.

    We selected the KŌST to have dinner with our friends and family for my girlfriend's birthday and we were pleased with food and service quality, and let's not forget the amazing view of the CN tower from the outside patio on the 44th floor. Everything vas simply perfect and I would highly recommend!

    Food was absolutely amazing! Sooo good! Service was a little slow, took 15+ minutes for anyone to even check on us. Also, they had the outside closed which sucked so our table was behind a wall with no views…the main reason we went there.
