Went here last Tuesday based on a friend's recommendation and during summerlicous. First got here late but was seated without any problems. The food was alright, wasn't expecting great wow factor but non the less ok. The wait staff was busy the whole night but did not check up on us but its ok when you are serving with lots of guests you tend to check up on us once in awhile. One of the food items that i ordered the pork belly is generally the same as the Chinese Pork piece so I was thrown off at that when i saw it. As it was just for summerlicious may not come here again for the food but for the wonderful scenery as it was from the 54th floor of a busy downtown establishment. read more

Summary... Service, 5 A+ stars Food, 4 stars, nothing special though. Fancy and beautifully presented. Atmosphere, 5 stars, was 4 tables full when we went in (Thursday 6:45pm) and very busy when we left (9:00pm) I like :) Definitely a good place to impress someone. Will return if I am employed and wealthy. =============================================== Introduction... My friend, employed and wealthy, took me here for dinner. Pricey-est place I've ever been too! Ever ever! View was magnificent. Better than the 360 restaurant! Food was presented beautifully. Service was amaaaazing. The waiters come out to explain each dish and drink we ordered. Our waiter was so courteous. Our napkin was folded each and every time we return to our table. At the end of the night, the girl who took us to our table remembered that I had a job interview before the dinner, and she wished me luck. I appreciate that too. My friend said that their menu changes all the time so that is pretty cool. =============================================== The Menu... For Starters, we had the froie gras, my first time. My friend, a lover of them, enjoyed them a looooot. The waiter knew to split them for us, which was SO nice of him. Anyways, so the froie gras... mmm, not for me! Glad I tried though. I liked the peanuts on this dish, but not so much the peaches from Niagara... My friend liked and ate everything on his plate, and on mine haha. We shared a plate of beets, which I didn't really eat because I don't like beets.. We also shared the Northern Woods Mushrooms. This came in a little pot, and it was soooooo adorable. Absolutely delicious but I think my mommy can also make this... minus the spice, which I wasn't a fan of anyway. I had the Sturgeon on Truffled Potato. The fish was great, no doubt. The potato was yummy too, but together with the fish, it was... different. My wealthy friend had the Ribeye & Marrow Tortellini. He loved the tortellini, and the steak was nice. For drinks, I had the Greektown cocktail and I didn't like it, so my friend sent it back for me and our waiter took it off our bill. Awww :) =============================================== Conclusion... Beautiful place, spectacular food presentation, very caring waiters, and expensive. For incomeless people like me... expensive is the key word unfortunately. read more

Canoe is a beautiful restaurant, with amazing service. The view from the restaurant is absolutely incredible. The service is impeccable - attentive and informative, but the servers are careful not to rush you. My mom and I came for a late lunch during a weekday, and our server did not pressure us to leave once the lunch rush cleared out. We were the only people left for quite some time, and we didn't feel awkward or as though we should leave although they were closed after lunch service. I've been here twice - once for a special lunch and once for dinner. The last time I was there I had a soft cheese appetizer, and for my main I had a delicious fish dish. For dessert, we had Canoe's version of a butter tart, which was honestly one of the most amazing desserts I've ever had. I was upset that I shared it with my husband! All of our guests were extremely happy with their food. When we came for lunch, I had a mushroom soup to start and the lunch special, which was a fancy meatloaf. My mom had the very popular lobster clubhouse, which neither of us were overly impressed by. I thought it was pretty bland. Canoe has great food, and is the perfect place for a special occasion. read more

The service was incredible, the hostess and waiter were so welcoming and kind. Besides that the view is breathtaking! I'd love to have dinner here during sunset or in the evening it must be even nicer then. Now, onto the food! I came during winterlicious for lunch. For appetizers I tried the foie gras parfait. It was hands down the highlight of the meal for me. It was wonderfully rich and silky, the mouth feel was just dreamy. The sweet and tart jam and the salty buttery pastry along with the grapes offered wonderful contrast from the foie gras. The fogo island cod rilette was interesting. It's a very tart, tangy dish. The plating is striking. The fish is very soft and topped with pickles and cauliflower. The pickles are very sour. It's quite refreshing. For the main course I tried the salmon and the beef. The beef is amazing. It was melt in your mouth tender and just dreamy to eat. The plating was beautiful with the bright orange puree and vegetables contrasting from the dark shiny beef. The salmon was interesting. It was a tad dry when I got it but the skin was delightfully crispy. The contrast between the lentils, fish and skin was quite nice. Dessert was wonderful. The flourless chocolate cake is incredible rich and silky. It's delicious! The yogurt verine is lovely as well. The yogurt is silky and has a rich mouth feel. And the tangy sea buck thorn berries offer a lovely tangy burst of sunny flavour that contrasts nicely with the mild and creamy yogurt. Overall I'd recommend the restaurant to a friend and definitely want to go back. The plating here is definitely among the most beautiful, if not the most beautiful, that I've seen. read more

Summerlicious success! Wonderful service, great food, amazing view. Food wise: My wife was less impressed with her meal (chilled soup app was apparently not great after the first few bites, and the sauce in the fried trout was spicier than expected and a bit heartburn inducing), but I was very impressed with my meal from start to finish. The Bison Bavette with Short Rib was great. The bison on its own was a bit meh, but when combined with the shortrib and some of the acccompanying vegetables was pure flavour magic. I had the Coffee Chocolate Gateau for dessert which was just a great way to end the meal. So rich, so tasty. The banana cremeaux was unreal and when mixed with the brownies was epic. In review: If I had've paid full price for the 3 courses, I'd probably be more likely to give 4 stars and be more nitpicky... But given a table for 2 with a decent bottle of wine and tip came to a bit over $200, my expectations were fully met and 5 stars it is! read more

Flawless service. However the signature duck dish is overrated. The venison tartar however was incredibly delectable. read more

Canoe - Canadian (New) Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

This was my third visit, the first with a small party. My previous thoughts had been that this restaurant had traded off its location.....and the rest was ho hum.... Well my view all changed on this visit. We had great seats where we could watch the sun set and we could see all the way from Billy Bishop Airport to Mississauga and the horizon. All great scene setting. Our welcome was professional and pre dinner drinks were efficiently served. Excellent waiter attention followed where the fine line was well executed...splendid service. The starters and mains were popular and all received 'rave reviews' from around the table. It was the case of 10 out of 10....in my experience a rare occurrence. The delivery of consistency is the fact that I most commonly feel let down over and here it was not the case. The red meats all came out exactly as requested, the fish too was perfect.....not tricked up either. Grilled fish that was served as outstandingly grilled....and the Pork Loin was described as simply devine.... It has a quality wine list that covers the globe..... We did not venture into the desert menu as we had all had ample sufficiency... A real restaurant delivering and performing at the high end......expensive yes, however you pay for what you get. read more

Had the tasting menu with wine pairings. Our table wasn't ready right away so we had cocktails at the bar first. A bit annoying since we had a reservation. Loved the cocktail that started the wine pairings. Everything was prepared well, but I can't honestly say that anything was the best I ever had. I can barely remember what I ate. The view and service were great, as expected. Our waiter was very friendly and personable. Overall, a good experience, but it'll cost you a pretty penny. read more

This is for a visit from a few months ago. They had a special on a fish that was cooked by smoking it in a special log housing. It all looked really cool, but tasted incredibly bland. It cost around $45 for that dish and I feel like it was not worth the money. The scenery and service is amazing, but I was extremely disappointed with the food. read more

I love this place! My boyfriend took me here for an anniversary dinner and Canoe didn't disappoint. I'm always weary of upscale restaurants serving just mediocre food but it's very much worth the price here. We got the raw bar which was phenomenal - my boyfriend and I still talk about it. I had the steak and it was the best steak I've ever eaten at a restaurant. The service was also friendly and attentive. I'll admit, I felt a little intimidated as we are a younger couple but they treated us very well and with respect. Highly recommend. read more

It's been a while since I've been to Canoe and we decided to do the $45 Summerlicious dinner menu. I'm usually not a big fan of summerlicious menus as I've had poor experiences with service and quality in the past. My dinner at Canoe definitely swayed me in the opposite direction! We reserved the 5pm seating on a Saturday in an effort to avoid the potential chaos if we came later. We were seated by the window with a spectacular view of the Toronto waterfront and center island. Our waiter was extremely professional and friendly and cracked some jokes about the ensuing frenzy over the next 2 weeks. I had the cucumber soup, wellington beef, and bread pudding. Each dish was delicious, particularly the wellington beef, which was tender and juicy. My partner had the tuna as her main and we both preferred the beef more. We also added the $15 wine pairing chosen by their sommelier, which I would suggest for anyone as the waiter gave us generous portions of wine and they paired very well with my meal. The restaurant operated like clockwork. You could tell that they had prepared themselves well for the summerlicious rush. Food came out quickly, but we were not pressured at all to finish our meals. When the couple across us left, their table was cleaned and re-set within several minutes. I spoke to our waiter a bit and was told they had hired extra staff including food runners and table-setters to keep their service levels up. If you can get a reservation, for $60 with the wine pairing per person this is a must! read more

I have enjoyed many breath taking meals at Canoe in the past, only because of winter or summerlicious. Summerlicious this year was particularly memorable due to our fantastic waiter. Not only was our food amazing as usual, but the waiter we had treated us to complementary dessert wine and spent a lot of time at our table chatting and engaging us. It was different than any summerlicious that I have ever been to. Normally the staff is running around like chickens with there heads cut off. This waiter took the time to provide us with a true culinary experience. I had the Goat cheese queich with pickled veggies and the alberta beef. For desert I had the cheese selection, delightful . I left feeling full, surprised by the amazing experience I had and wanting to come back again tomorrow to do it all over again! See you in the winter Canoe!! read more

I was not excited to try Canoe. I thought it was going to be an over hyped, over priced, pretentious, somewhat good restaurant. I was wrong. Every cocktail, appetitzer, meal and dessert we had was divine. A party for my tastebuds. And the service? Amazing. I'm a fan. I highly recommend, and I would most certainly go back. read more

Good attention to reservations.Wonderful table with a view( perfect) Madding somewhat older crowd;consistent neither the tab.Staff balancing frantic with friendly. Bread sourdough only- not my metiere. Great starters :oysters! Fluke crudo,shroom soup all fine+. Trout bottomy( tank at Loblaws?) lamb saddle = big boy lamb a facon Canadien ; so tough = uncutable!!!!No steak knife available . Inedible. ' Can I bring you some thing else' ' No Thanks' Unappealing dessert menu .Good wine list; had dry Greek Muscat- Fine. Expensive. Billed for the tough lamb.Noisy. Night out for the folks. Not again read more

Can't believe I've been in TO for the longest time and still haven't been to canoe. Finally I'm here, maybe it's for the best. At the end I kinda know why this make so many people's favorite restaurant. The vibe is great, love the environment, it's clean. Have dinner here with my wife and in-laws, the chocolate foie gras was just explosion in my mouth, leaving me wanting more, I mean I order two plates to share, but that's appetizer isn't helping me improving my in-laws' impression of me. The steak was cook to perfection, lastly noted the dessert was really good... leaving me wanting even more... I will come back again... to pig it out... at least this time will be without watching eyes of in laws. read more

I finally went! Not sure why we hadn't been there before. I really loved it. The service is OUTSTANDING and what we ordered was great. We didn't order hot dishes so I can't say if it's good, but the seafood platter was good. I ordered dessert and they decorated it very nicely for me since I was celebrating my bday. We're definitely going back. Can't wait to try their hot plates. read more

Booked a reservation for January 25th for the first day of Winterlicious 2019 and it was amazing as always! On the 54th floor of the TD building in downtown, the views were absolutely stunning. After we checked in, the hostess took our coats and brought us to our table where our server Fred introduced himself and took us through the promotions. The winterlicious lunch was $33 per person for a 3 course meal and absolutely worth it! Our party of 4 ordered almost every option on the menu to try them all. They gave us delicious bread to start and when each of our dishes arrived, the servers explained what was in front of us which was very helpful and added to the experience. For drinks, we tried the sangria (which was warm and delicious), the daiquiri (which tasted delicious like pineapple juice) and the beer (for a chance to win a trip to Spain!). For appetizers, the best was definitely the cured salmon wrapped in cabbage which was absolutely phenomenal. The roast beef start are was also great but not everyone's cup of tea. The green bean salad was pretty basic but still tasty. For entrees, I would recommend the Alberta braised beef which was spectacular as well as the albacore tuna. The chicken also had great flavour and was perfectly juicy. Finally, for the desserts, Fred put a candle on my red velvet cake for my birthday which was so sweet. The chocolate cake had an interesting (?) medicine taste at first before it melted into chocolatey deliciousness. But my recommendation is the apple cheesecake which was perfection. All in all, the service, the view, the atmosphere and most importantly, the food was absolute perfection and I highly recommend trying Canoe out especially during Winterlicious! read more

We came here once on a special occasion with friends of ours. We actually came during winterlicious and it was fairly busy. I recalled the portions were tiny and the bill was as big as Texas. Not worth going to unless you're willing to pay $100 for 2 for a 3 star meal. Nothing to rave about, sorry Canoe. I thought I'd be jumping for joy when we got a reservation to dine here. Pro-tip: Be ready to call a dozen times during winter- or summerlicious. read more

Canoe is a big...disappointment! I've been there once and never want to come back, because the food just wasn't good at all. It's kind of surprising because I've heard a lot about this restaurant and was super exited to bring my mom here for her birthday. I ordered Caesar salad and risotto, my mom and my uncle both got steaks. The salad was okay, but risotto was blended and didn't have any flavour. My mom and my uncle both had complains about steaks, so they didn't finish them. The only good thing was the view, but we couldn't see everything because of the fog. read more

We went there for our anniversary. Overall it was a great experience. The service was excellent. The waiter was very attentive and the suggestions he gave for the food were all very good. At the end when we ordered dessert he even brought out an extra dessert as the one I had ordered we did not like that much. The appetizers were good. I ordered the steak and it was excellent. read more

What an amazing experience! I was dining alone on a Thursday night and was ready for everthing I'd heard about this place. At first I was sat in what was maybe not the best seat, with the water pitchers and register by my head and was starting fill with dread about the evening when no one came to bring water or explain the menu. The Sommelier wisked into action and found me the most wonderful table in the center of the room with a view, and gave me a glass of champagne for my wait. From there I went forth into the tasting menu with wine parings and was truly thrilled by each course. The scallop ceviche was astounding and felt as if it was just scooped from perfect waters. Before the intermezzo the Sommelier toldme they were bringing me something special, again...for my wait. They brought an entire extra course of their mouth-watering Fois Gras with a special wine pairing, which was something on the regular menu I was eyeing. The Venison was cooked to perfection without any sharp flavours. All in all, a prefect meal with a wonderful Sommelier, a talented and stunning waiter....and just a wonderful memory! read more

Awesome service and view from the 54th floor of TD tower. Every dish is a picture! The waygu beef steak taste wonderful with full of new flavours of surprise. The lamb saddle was too rare at the beginning but they took it back and cooked a little bit more . Not recommend lamb if you cannot enjoy the very original lamb meat flavour. read more

Took advantage of Winterlicous to go here for a prix-fixe lunch on a Sunday with friends. The staff are super-friendly and very attentive so top marks for service. We were seated at a table by the south-facing windows. The view of the downtown and lake from the 54th floor is fantastic! We watched planes take off from and land at the island airport. Most of us had the Butternut Squash Soup for the appetizer. It was delicious and the sunflower seeds that were mixed in complemented the squash. The flavour wasn't too strong so it was some of the best soup I've had. For the main course I decided to try the Vanilla Braised Rabbit with polenta and mushrooms. I can't recall the last time I had rabbit so I wanted to be a bit adventurous. I found that the rabbit tasted not unlike chicken (why do so many things taste like chicken, btw?) but a wee bit gamey. Now to be fair to the chef I'm certain it was prepared perfectly but I guess rabbit is not my thing. Perhaps I should have had the salmon instead, which some of the my friends had and said was wonderful. I really enjoyed my dessert which was the Pear & Rosemary Bread Pudding with Maple Anglaise. The serving size was appropriate but to be honest it was so good I wished I could have had seconds. Highly recommended! Note that Canoe is not normally open on weekends; check their website for the hours. read more

Service is great. The salmon starter ( I forget the whole name of the course...)‍ is awesome. read more

We went there yesterday evening for drinks before heading out for dinner. Yes, 38 $C for two glasses of wine is more then average, but the ambience is priceless. No need to say that their reds are good ones. The waiters were more than helpful in getting us a seat with views over the skyline as well as with dinner recommendations. read more

So disappointed I wasted $45 + tip & tax on a summerlicious dinner here. What I ate: sweet pea panna cotta (best part of my meal, but still somewhat bland), fried Great Lakes perch (unseasoned, tiny portion, and flavorless), buttermilk & lemongrass flan (also pretty meh). The service was great (even though literally every server I saw, except one, was a white male... why?) and the view was beautiful, but wow, what a tragic waste of money. read more

I never write reviews for places, and as I sit here at this restaurant this has to be the best restaurant experience I've had so far in Toronto. I came here for for my anniversary and our server Steven made our experience wonderful. He was knowledge about the food and wine and made our experience wonderful. The food was absolutely amazing and we will be back very soon. Both front of house staff and back of house staff know exactly what they're doing and they do it exquisitely. Thank you so much for an amazing evening. read more

I've been here for lunch and dinner and i have to say...i preferred lunch...the views were amazing and the prices very reasonable, especially for a biz lunch I had the rack of lamb, and that was probably one of the best i've ever had. The lamb was done medium rare and very tender and flavorful. Portion size was just perfect as well. I also had the date pudding with passionfruit sorbet and it was delish! Great service; server heard me telling my lunch companion (visitor from SF) that the Niagara region was known for ice wine...and he poured 2 tasting glasses for us to sample- So nice! Great view of the city...it was a perfect lunch read more

First time I tried Canoe, had a fantastic experience. So suggested this place for a Customer meeting/Dinner and was totally disappointing. Only good things to write about are the drinks, Wine selection and the View (being on the 50+ floor giving a great view of the city). Food was mediocre and service was outlandish for this fine dining restaurant. Had to keep calling the waiters attention to refill wine, water etc. At one time asked the host to find our server and all i got was a clueless expression with an answer "I don't know who your server is". Definitely not a sign of an establishment training their staff well. Overall for the price paid, this was not a good experience. read more

Canoe, I hear many things about this place. Coveted, overly hyped, and ... how they sell moose. I would like to know if the third one is true. I like the concept they are Canadian and I like the idea of them selling moose (unverified). So I made a reservation after two attempts. Went for summerlicious on the first day and it was perfect. Amazing, their buffala mozzarella and the semialfredo. read more

We came to Canoe to top off our trip to Canada. What a way to end!! We got the 7 course tasting menu with the wine pairing. Not cheap at $150 a head but to be honest every mouthful and sip was worth it. This was hands down one of the tastiest meals I have ever had. The wine pairings were excellent and our server Kevin was fantastic. This was an expensive evening but a very special one. Make sure to ask for a window seat when you reserve a table and take in the exquisite view of Toronto from the 54th floor of the TD building! read more

Wonderful third time visit to Canoe. This time dinner with two companions. We all had cocktails--one Pomegrante spritz, one warm apple cider with spiced rum, and my Ginger Lemon beer! My Ginger Lemon beer had the right amount of ginger kick and sweetness. The Spiced rum cocktail however tasted a bit watered down and no rum taste whatsoever. Two amuse bouches and one appetizer (S'mores Foie Gras). The amuse bouche was a bison carpaccio with marinated raddish and some other stuff. It was a tasty bite but missing a bit of acid. The Foie Gras was strange, with white chocolate and toasted marshmallow. I only tasted the foie gras and it honestly tasted like ice cream with a tiny bitter aftertaste of foie gras. In my opinion, ruined the foie gras, ha! My companion said the rest of the dish was good. I had the Charcoal risotto with smoked onion, heirloom carrot, celeriac and picked turnips. The risotto was cooked well, just a bit over al dente, which I prefer but delicious nonetheless. The Eage's Nest cheese was more fragrant or pungent but less sharp than Parmesean. Delicious! My companion had the Tea Smoked Duck Breast. He was nice enough to share. The duck breast was perfectly cooked-moist. The haggis was surprisingly tasty, with different textures and a bitter aftertaste--which I enjoyed! My other companion had the ivory salmon. All in all, a wonderful dining experience. As always, the view was spectacular. Also, we had no idea diners can actually sit next to the kitchen, so this will definitely be my next seating at Canoe! One negative note--we were all a little bothered by the rudeness by the waitress at the end of the meal. She gave us attitude about asking for separate bills at the end. In my experience, most waitress ask beforehand, because honestly, the customers shouldn't be the one keeping track of how the bill is paid, that's your job honey! read more

I came here for their summerlicious menu. The food is great but could be amazing or bigger portion for that price. My picky cousin, who went to some Michelin starred restaurants, claims that food is 6-7/10. The service is great, servers were friendly and always know which order is yours, the knife that I accidentally drop was picked up in a minute. It's a great place to come with a family to celebrate something. However, portions could be bigger or the food could taste amazing. read more

I should start by saying I went last summer (new to yelp), but had to give my review on this great restaurant. I am a student, so fine dining experiences are a rare occasion for me. I decided to choose this location because I love a good visit to Toronto and who would want to see the gorgeous view on a beautiful day. Additionally, the menu looked wonderful. I reserved online a week ahead of time, requesting a window table with a view of the CN Tower and lake Ontario. We were given the closest 2-seated table to this corner of the restaurant, so this was perfect. The staff were wonderful to my guest and me, even with our young age - which is uncommon at more high-end restaurants (and immediately ruins the grandness of the experience). As for the food. It was delicious, and uncommon. We ordered the special appetizer of the night, which happened to be a duck "head to tail" (more-or-less what they called it). It was the best part of the meal. I had a venison dish, and it was also lovely. During the meal we had wine (not a wine-o, so couldn't tell you more on that), and I also had a whiskey. Drinks were very good. Overall, great dining experience, one of my best, and certainly my favorite so far (that view was wonderful). read more

First, I have to comment on the service, because it was truly remarkable. For such a swanky place, the service was completely unpretentious. Rather, our server was friendly, knowledgeable, professional, and made both myself and my dining companion very comfortable. I had no feeling of stuffiness, which is rare for a place like this. And the view! As soon as the sun set, the servers lined up across the windows and simultaneously pulled the set of curtains up to reveal a stunning view of Toronto. Now, on to the food. I regret not writing this review closer to my actual visit here, because I can't remember the names of the dishes I had, and the menu seems to have changed since my visit. I'll try to describe everything as best I can. My amuse was a wonderful white fish mousse served with little chips, fresh green peas, and a drizzle of flavourful olive oil. While fish mousse is not a thing that generally appeals to me, this was so delicious. I would love to see it in a larger appetizer portion. My partner had pristinely fresh oysters, and I had a lovely, creamy soup (I believe it was an artichoke base), poured over a meltingly tender slice of pork belly. I had seared duck with barley for my main- the duck was beautifully seasoned and cooked, but I found the grains slightly undercooked. I had a small cake for my birthday dessert- it was delicious, but not all that remarkable as cakes go. Overall, this was a wonderful restaurant experience. Despite a couple of slight misses, the food was very much worth the price tag, and I would come back without hesitation. read more

Yummy, but not as good as Richmond Station. First, the view is amazing. Loved the ambiance. Our server was super cool. He was very patient with my friend who is... difficult and eccentric. We opted for the tasting menu. We started with this sort of bizarre amuse-bouche. An amuse-bouche is supposed to be one bite, this was 2-3 bites that tasted like deep-fried sushi with weird crunchy spidery leg things sticking out of it. It was hard to eat and overly kooky. We then had the lobster dish (so good) and the duck egg raviolo (amazing, I could eat this everyday). For the main course, I had the halibut in cocoa butter and she had the wagyu. My fish was amazing, moist and perfectly done. I was suspicious of the cocoa butter, but it was truly great. My friend's dish, on the other hand, was not great. The beef was tough and the presentation looked like a Super Mario Bros. landscape, blocks of meat and other things strewn about the plate. Meh. The crème brulée dessert was delicious though. And... the wine pairings were spot-on, very nice indeed. If I'm ever in Toronto again, I will definitely revisit. I might not get the tasting menu again though. I want to try their entrées. read more

Came into town for a short amount of time and had one lunch to splurge with my husband. Canoe delivered. The view (top of the TD building), the wine and the service were excellent...but the food stole the show. We started with tamarack farms tomatoes and the romaine salad and then enjoyed the halibut t-bone and the roast chicken -- both amazing. Cooked well, lots of flavor and not too heavy. Added bonus? Enjoyed some local wine along with our food. read more

After researching restaurants in Toronto with a great view, Canoe was one of the top and indeed it does have a beautiful view ( unless ur back is facing the view lol) but i cant complain i went there for a birthday and unfortunately it wast mine. Make sure you request a window seat and arrive a bit early. I cant say that I was very impressed with the food, expected more from a high end restaurant like Canoe. However the presentation was very impressive. I think if you are celebrating an occasion, this is a great place to come ( or if u want to impress a date). Personally i wouldn't dine at this restaurant again but im glad i tried it at least once after reading such good reviews. The staff was very friendly and attentive. Overall, the atmosphere and spectacular view made it a great experience and that's why i gave it a 4 star rating read more
