Really great spot to come and grab a drink and some food. Place is perfectly located near clubs. Area is really dope at night yo hang out with friends and meet new people. If you have a chance to catch them on a Sunday for brunch definitely do it. They have one of the best brunches in the city. Cheers! read more

We came here twice for the Hunter's Caesar. Well recommended if you're a fan of Bloody Mary. The ladies serving you are quite pleasing to the eye as well. Be sure to read that last line quickly as I'll have to edit it once my lady reads it. :-P read more

Hunters Landing - The Hunter Caesar.... Outstanding. - Comfort Food Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Came here for the first time to celebrate my sister's birthday. Honestly I don't remember much as I had a bit too much to drink but I really loved the lounge scenery--it's not the typical grungy pub type atmosphere but a classy one instead. Waitress was nice and food was good so I'd come back. read more

Convenient location and thought would be a cool spot to check out on a Sunday night. Looked like a great indoor/outdoor space a few TVs and industrial decor. Restaurant bar wasn't busy And I definitely was NOT impressed, 1st time here and they didn't even get our drink order right. Our party of 7 ordered 2 beers, 4 double vodkas and 1 kettle one with lemon all in tall glasses - they specify on the drink menu to request what glass you want your drink in). All drinks came in short glasses all with lime. We tried to order wings - they are out until Tuesday - today is Sunday. We ordered nachos, French fries, calamari and Mac and cheese. Our drinks came out with our food - at least 25 minutes and the French fries $9 and calamari $14 were pretty basic and not anything special and worth the value. The nachos $22 (I thought were vegetarian) we ordered beef - didn't have barely any meat or cheese and all toppings we're separated on top of the nachos and ones underneath were pretty bare. $10 nachos IMO. One of the guys had to go ask where was the Mac and cheese $11 - the order was never put in... this dish tasted better than the other three. Definitely disappointed in my experience here, maybe come back for a drink during happy hour but food is just overpriced bar food. read more

This is one of my favourite hang out place especially Blue jays game's on. They are busy most of time but hey big screen will entertain you while you are wait. Food is pretty good. Nacho is big enough to share for couple of people. I love their patio. It's casual fun place in downtown. read more

My wife and I wanted a place we could walk to from our airbnb high-rise apartment. This was nearby and the outdoor seating was welcome on an unusually warm early fall evening. The Landing Burger was pretty good. We were greeted and served quickly but it took several requests to get ketchup and drink refills. It was long wait to find someone to give us a bill but we were not in a hurry so it was no problem for us. It might be for others. read more

Food was good. Service was so slow for brunch. Took 2+ hours. Asked for our checks and drinks several times.

Ordered the pizza, nachos, and burger. Nothing really stood out 2.5/5 Lively environment with a good ambience 4/5 read more

Terrible service. Our server charged us 18% gratuity because we were a party of 6 but was very reluctant and slow to serving us. The server was very snarky and we had to ask multiple times for cutlery, napkins and drinks. The food was very good but the service ruined my experience. read more

Decided to venture here after the TFC game tonight and were greeted very graciously by the hostess who was quick to get a table of 7 cleaned and ready for us. Once seated we were introduced to our server Brooke who was fantastic to us all night. A few at people at the table ordered some drinks (I was DD so ordered a Pepsi) everyone was happy with their choices and the 2 guys who ordered pints of Guinness were happily suprised by the quality of the pour. Foodwise a few of us ordered the Spicy Jerk Wings & Chicken Nachos to share and they were both dynamite. The Jerk sauce was perfectly balanced with spice and flavour, an absolute treat. We also tried "Russell's Hot Sauce" which was FANTASTIC as well. Highly recommend the venue and hopefully you'll be lucky enough to get a star like Brooke as your server. We'll all DEFINITELY be back. read more

I went on a regular Friday night. The place was dead. We requested to be on the first floor but got invited to the second and there was no one there. Food was so so. Staff so so. Won't visit again for sure. read more

Hunters Landing new look definitely enhances the experience. The new bar is located towards the back of the bar giving it a cleaner look. We ordered the edamame and calzone. The calzone looked perfect when it was presented, but like a Disney commercial as I poked it the smoke plunged out and the calzone dissipated into a flat bread.... The bottom line is the vibe is sweet. It definitely is worth a shot! read more

This review will be mostly about the TERRIBLE service I recently experienced. We went there for a friend's birthday. The group was much larger than the last - approximately 15+ people. The waiter was by far the WORST waiter there and we were the unlucky group to have him. Let me explain why: 1. When taking drink orders a friend asked what was on tap, the waiter replies "It's on that list you have in your hand, if you read it, you'd know." - ARE YOU SERIOUS?! 2. A friend had to send back a beer because it was warm. They had reminded the waiter that they were waiting for their beer and when he brought it to her it was warm. So she asked to send it back for a cold beer, his reply was the bar is pretty hectic and they can't manage right now. She happened to be sitting in such a way that she faced the bar and the bar was empty! - REALLY?! 3. I ordered a soda and never got it. When I asked to cancel it, he blamed it on the lack of assistance from the other servers. - NO ACCOUNTABILITY!!!! 4. At the end of the night when getting the bills, I repeated five (5) times what was on my and boyfriend's bill: calamari, pasta, streak. This guy wrote it down in all sorts of ways AND STILL GOT THE BILL WRONG. 5. He then messed up on another set of bills. He insisted at our table that we had an extra steak ordered. In the end a friend who didn't even eat the phantom steak paid to resolve the issue. It was 1am and we all wanted to go home. DESPICABLE! We all talked about it and one friend had paid in cash and the waiter didn't count that payment. I'm not saying he stole the money, I'm saying he was so scatter-brained he messed up on the bills. 6. When talking to the waiter about what happened and how things could have gone differently he WALKED AWAY WHILE I WAS IN MID-SENTENCE - ^*#$&?! 7. When a few of us left out wait outside, the same awful, idiot waiter comes out to apologize. Are you messing with us dude? If you're gonna come out, don't come empty handed. ESPECIALLY when you say "If I could give him the money back.." THEN WHY TAKE IT IN THE FIRST PLACE?! I can tell you now, we aren't going back. Aside from the APPALLING service, the food was ok. Not as good as I remembered. Calamari: smaller portion size than last time we were there Steak frites: VERY undercooked for medium-rare - they might as well have slaughtered the cow on the table - and the fries were soggy Marinated chicken gemelli: Delicious, but very small portion size. I don't know what happened this time around, but the food was not as good - bad experience, maybe??? This place is not good for large groups. Though not ideal, I would recommend NOT splitting the bill. Their 18% auto-gratuity for large groups is such scam - you will get no service. Or, when you do get service, like we did, it's rude service. read more

Landed at Hunter's Landing! And boy am I glad I landed here. You can tell you are getting close to the restaurant because they have a very visible bright red sign! Just a tip in case you've never been here before. So the inside decor of this place is very nice. It's the type of place you walk into and you feel like you're part of the 1%. The menu itself isn't very large, which is actually a good thing because everything that is on the menu sounds amazing and you can tell thought and care has been put into it. I ordered the lamb pasta, and oh man, it was delicious! I really enjoyed it. The service here is quite good from what I experienced, our waitress was nice. At the end of our meal, we actually asked if we could meet the chef and he came out to greet us. You can tell he is really passionate about his work, and it shows as soon as you take a bite. I haven't even gotten to the best part yet. . . THE DESSERT!! Oh man. . the cheesecake! damn, dat cheesecake. Wow, it was amazing. The "sugar bombs" are also really good! I would come here just to eat dessert. Overall, I had a great experience! It's a little pricey, but I guess you get what you pay for right? I would definitely come here again. Probably a good place to take a date too ;) The dimmed lights and fancy decor will get her in the mood. . . or your money back! lol I'm joking (about the money back part). read more

I thought Hunters Landing was pretty great. The inside looked a little rustic and beautiful. I liked the look of their tables and their wineglasses without stems for water. Our server was nice and attentive. I find they only fill our waters a smidgen, as if they were serving us wine. I finished that in about a millisecond.. lol We ordered: Calamari ($12) Fish tacos ($13, comes with 3, another $4 for an extra taco) Classica Pizza ($14) Landing Salad with Salmon ($18, Salad alone is $10) Marinated Chicken Gemelli ($18) Sugar bombs ($7) The calamari was alright, I'm not the biggest fan of calamari and the green sauce it came with was okay. The fish tacos were pretty good, I liked the hot sauce that came with them and I enjoyed them despite the fact they were fried. The pizza was undercooked in the middle in my opinion and I was glad I ordered the pasta. It was very good. I could feel myself gaining weight with every bite and it was well worth it. I'd definitely get that again, the chicken was overcooked a tad but I didn't mind. Also, the sugar bombs were UNREAL. I would visit the place for just those alone. Our server said they were like Tiny Tom's on steroids and she was so right. There was nothing I didn't like about them. This is a nice little spot, I'm glad I tried it and I would definitely visit again. read more

I'm here weekly because it's situated in a convenient location for me and the food is always great! I love how large the patio is you can always get a seat! Fun atmosphere, good food, great service will be back. read more

Are you made of money? If the answer is yes, you should probably stop by this place for a drink...although if you are made out of money then you probably would go to places that are more posh....right? So where does this leave us? A place for the yuppies with a bit of cash to burn and wants to be cool. $32 for two drinks after tax and tips. No food, just two cocktails. Okay the atmosphere is cool but how did it end up burning a hole in my pocket? read more

Hunter's Landing: Cityplace's little secret Opened more than a year ago, it's already becoming a favourite dine out experience for many Cityplace residents. Opened by Steve Pelton, Peter Brauti, John Young and Scott Manicom whose claim to fame were the once, South of Temperance and Williams Landing. All the owners are very much part of our community. Steve even lives here! For those still unfamiliar with the location, it is one block West of Sobey's on Fort York Blvd. and overlooks the beautifully landscaped Canoe Landing park. You can get a better view from the mezzanine. Right upfront, the place isn't inexpensive but the menu is certainly unique. I've heard great things about the calamari, though haven't tried it. My #1 pick on the menu would definitely be the brunch, Hunter's Benedict. The lobster makes all the difference. Check out the menu at http://hunterslanding.ca/menu. The atmosphere is lively and vibrant, you may be able to get a cozy spot on the mezzanine but around the bar is where the action is. Service is absolutely awesome. Very friendly and responsive staff especially if you're looking for chatty. Their New Years Eve party was really classy and fun, unlike any of the usual clubs downtown. Excellent crowd. Would definitely be going there again. So whether you're there for a lazy morning brunch, a time-to-kill lunch or a dinner evening with friends, this place transforms itself to meet the occasion. read more

Food is average quality but overpriced. Drinks are fairly priced ... I don't like coming here, I only ever do because the majority of my friends reside in Cityplace. The service is usually always good here though read more

Hunter's Landing is consistent - a quality I very much appreciate in a local eatery. The food is good - not mind blowing but it's reasonably priced and I know what I'm getting when I go there. The staff are all beautiful (annoyingly so!) - I took a star off as service can be slow. I love the burger and sweet potato fries but the steak salad is also good and the desserts are all amazing (and gluten free which is awesome). read more

I've been here a few times and the food is always great and they have excellent staff. The outdoor patio is awesome in the summer. They have unreal drink specials and their special caesars are amazing!! read more

Andrew and Laura are amazing bartenders !!!tried some new cocktails and the food was great

Excellent service, our server was male, black, about 5'10", slim build, in his mid 40's but looks younger than his age. I cannot commend him more on his service. Too bad I cannot remember his name. I came back here for my birthday and we requested him to serve us as we had experienced his service before, and we were super impressed with his professionality and excellence as our server. Food, too, was excellent, excellent cut of steak, cooked perfectly, I have had it twice now and both times it was done perfect medium rare. Fresh cut fries, my favourite... fresh, cut, and double fried. Have been there enough times to try all their appetizers, each one done well, nothing overlooked, I commend the chef of the restaurant for keeping attention to detail and quality of food as it goes out. I also commend the kitchen staff for keeping all the food consistent and tabling food timely. had a party of 16, everyone was impressed. brunch is good, a bit overpriced but this is expected when you look at this place... a little more ritzy than your average bar, everyone hired to work there is physically beautiful, awesome lighting, atmosphere is cool and sexy, decor is modern and chic. not my normal cup of tea... but can't say no to a good steak. probably best steak in this area. 4 stars out of 5 read more

4 stars because they accommodated my food request. I ordered the steak and tomorrow salad and substituted the beets for kale and added mozzarella. On the menu I thought it came w goat cheese too but I didn't see any when my food arrive. However we waited about 40 mins until are food arrived and there weren't many other tables. I ordered 2 mimosas but they tasted more like oj. The first one had a lot of pulp and the 2nd had no pulp. My friend ordered the margarita pizza and it came w large chunks of tomato instead of thin slices. Ordered oysters that came out w our food. Although since we didn't realize how long the wait for our food we ordered them after the first 20 mins of waiting thinking they'd still come out first. They didn't come w cocktail sauce and we requested hot sauce (not tobasco) overall the food was good but the wait to get it was long. read more

The are not equip to serve the downtown crowd. Tell me how on a Saturday evening in July, after a Jay's game, they manage to "hold the door" and not allowing more customers to come in to the restaurants, with many empty tables. They are constantly understaff and when you are seated, you DO NOT get served. Get your act together if you're going to stay in Cityplace. read more

This is a cool neighbourhood joint!! Im nor much a of. Pubber, beer drinker or sports fanatic but i love to just hang and i can comfortably do that there. Also the fact that their food is made in house from scratch is a bonus!! Coolest feature for u homebodies in city place. ROOOM SERVICE!!! How cool that they deliver. Overall i dig it here !! read more

Nice place to watch hockey, it's quite loud there. I like the interior. We had some burgers, they were good enough but nothing special. House wine was really good! If you wanna go to some bar (but not Jack Astor's) this place is what you are looking for. read more

Beautiful place, loved it the scenery. It appeals to every crowd and that's what I like about it. Ordered a sangria which was light and delicious, nice patio setting as well. Located downtown and they have eco-friendly straws so I love that. The bartenders were nice, friendly and prompt. read more

I just loved the Landing ceaser cocktail! And the chicken pizza was yummm! Great ambience, great place to just chill and chat with friends and your loved ones! read more

Very slow and not-so-friendly service. Food is only mediocre to bad by my standards. At my first visit to this place, my friend and I were seated on the patio and no one came to say hi, bring menus or bring water for 15 minutes. I had to raise my hands several times until I got the hosts attention and they switched us to inside. The manager came over to apologize and offered us two free drinks. Weeks after, I went back again because I lived right next to it and had to meet with a friend there briefly. We sat on the patio for 20minutes, no one ever noticed us and we had to switch to the bar inside. There have been two other times the service was also very slow and servers just didn't come to check up on you or refill water frequently. I only kept coming back to this place because I live in Cityplace neighbourhood and before this year there were not so many choices here. But yesterday I went to Macho across from Hunters Landing, the service was 10 times better and we left with a big tip. I won't return to Hunters Landing. read more

Came to Hunters Landing this morning for breakfast since I was in the area. They have a pretty sweet patio so we decided to grab a seat there. Service was pretty standard/good. We ordered coffee, ordered breakfast and they checked in time to time to refill our cups. Food was average. They don't have a huge selection for breakfast but I got the standard two eggs, bacon (only 2 strips), potatoes and fruit. Fruit was only 3 pieces of cantaloupe which I found pretty deceiving. Most places who offer "fruit" in a description actually give you way more. My friend got pulled pork benny. It just came with potatoes. He thought it was average. It comes on a ciabatta instead of the standard English muffin so it made it hard to cut. For sure this place isn't the *it* place for brunch but it was decent and I enjoyed my coffee on the patio. I'll be back when I'm in the city place area for sure. read more

My girlfriend lives in the condo right beside this bar so naturally its a place to go for a quick bite or drink. Thing is, aside from a pleasant decor with nice lighting and attractive waitresses and bartenders, this place is pretty terrible Been here 4 times, have ordered flatbread pizza, mac and cheese burger with fries,wings, spinach dip and nachos and drinks. The food is bland and tasteless. The cook is a west indian guy because i recognize there "special hot sauce" which is made with wiri wiri pepper. My burger was dried out mack and cheese and overcooked burger. My girlfriends flatbread pizza was essentially pita bread with some sporadic toppings placed over it. Im telling you, the food here is LACKING big time. If youre looking for a place to watch a game and have a beer its fits the bill. And i say beer not cocktail. My girlfriend had a brunch ceasar once that had a lil lobster meat on it and it was stale and old tasting. Gross stuff man. Dont be fooled by location or appearance! read more

Great location downtown. Super impressed with Sam who was our server , she went above and beyond. Great experience thanks to her.

We stopped in here last night for a late dinner. I had my eye son the famous cesar with the lobster tail and slider. Unfortunately thats only a brunch item. Instead we asked the waitress for some recommendations. The recommended the calamari which was served with a chimichurri sauce. We also ordered the landings burger and their meat pizza. 2 ciders (Strongbow on tap - bonus!) and 2 beers. The calamari wa sby far the best thing we ate. It was perfectly cooked and chrunchy and generous and had little pieces of hot pepper which was such an awesome combination but the sauce was super strange. It was Delicious - dont get me wrong - but this was nto a chimichurri sauce. this was somethign that resembled a pesto. Regardless - we devoured the plate. The bruger my husband had was OK - the fries were FANTASTIC. Weve become burger connoisuers and after enjoying some fine fine burgers...this paled in comparison. It reminded me of an upscale BigMac. The pizza was thin crust and HUGE. I barely ate half of it - my husband finished the rest. I thought it was too salty and too meaty for me. i wasnt a fan of the meat toppings that resembled bolognesse sauce... maybe next time id order something different. Service was on par and very good. After tip and tax total was 101.00 for dinner for two. Would I go back? Only for that damn Cesar. Thats it. read more

Two stars because the manager really did try and fix our issues. Waited 20 minutes before we spoke to a server. We had to stop them ourselves. Got our waters 15 minutes after that. Our food took 45 minutes to come. Seemed like the wait staff was very scattered, no team work apparent. My husbands steak that he ordered medium rare was cold and raw on the inside. He sent it back and just ate the other items on his plate. The rest of our meals were "just ok" a bit cold when they arrived (we were a group of 5) They did remove that item from our bill and gave us a 25% discount. It's not enough to make me ever want to go back. read more

I've been to Hunters two times now - once for dinner and once for their weekend brunch. I sat in the patio both times and had such pleasant experiences. I'd definitely recommend coming here to sit outside on a warm sunny day. The food and drinks are delicious and the atmosphere is super relaxed/chilled. While I always come to this restaurant casually, it is certainly a place you can plan a more formal event as well. I also find that the servers here are all extremely friendly and welcoming. I'd visit again! read more

Good food and nice ambience. Waitress was nice. They have an outdoor area but is was packed. We sat inside with the doors open and it was nice. read more

We ate here during our recent visit to Toronto and enjoyed enormous portions of good food. The restaurant was extremely busy when we arrived so we asked to be seated at the bar rather than wait 45 minutes for a table. Although there were seats available, we had to wait several minutes for service. The bar staff appeared to need an extra hand or two. Despite the busyness, however, the service was still reasonably friendly. One of the first things we noticed about the restaurant was the casual upscale atmosphere. The bar and stools were comfortable and clean. The weather was nice and the bar opened up to the patio area so we could enjoy the nice weather, too. The food was also very good. The menu was full of a good variety of American-style fare. We ordered the Mac Burger and the Chicken Parmesan sandwich. Both dishes were well prepared and tasted fresh. The chicken parm was more than I could eat, so I took the leftovers with me in a small paper box. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal here and would return again. Next time, we will try visiting during off-peak hours for quicker service. read more

I came here for a friends birthday and to my surprise, the food wasn't all that great. They do have have a great outdoor patio and 2nd floor view but it doesn't make up for the night we had. I ordered a bottle of wine which was presented nicely (I don't really care much for that as I'm low maintenance) and food orders and drinks were taken promptly at the beginning. We ordered the lobster dip and to be honest, it wasn't that great. It was bland with lobster pieces but VERY bland. We still ate it and didn't want to cause a stink about it. Then the main course came out and man, were we disappointed. I ordered a cesaer salad with salmon and my boyfriend ordered a pasta dish. His dinner plate was so bland. No seasoning, no pepper. Nothing. My cesaer was fine (how can you screw up a Cesar salad?) But the salmon was WAY too salty. By the time I got into half my salmon my tongue was starting to feel numb. So I gave half my salmon to my boyfriend to mix into his pasta to get some flavour. Our other friend ordered their daily special, which was a fancy steak. However, he's a chef himself and was not pleased with the food either. He said it was bland, no taste, no seasoning, nothing. We made a hint that was pretty obvious but the server completely ignored our comments and walked away filling water. By the end of the night, we were feeling full but unsatisfied. The service lacked by the end and they also charged us 18% service charge which we thought was steep due to the lack of service and the fact that the food sucked ass. read more

I will most likely never come back to this place again unless it is for drinks and more drinks.... cuz really you cannot screw up Drinks. The food tasted horrible. Everything our group ordered from the pizza, pasta, fries, chicken wings, burgers, and almost everything else had no flavor and no taste. I am not sure if the chef was having a bad day or maybe they ran out of seasoning for all of the food but we were seriously disappointed. Also this place seems poorly managed seeing as how our server was trying the best she could but freely admitted that they were short staffed. She had "some" help with people running drinks for her but there was clearly a lack of communication as we waited quite awhile for our drinks. There was also a pretty big spill on the floor near our table and it took a total of 1 hour for someone to come and mop it up after our server literally fell and another server almost slipped....I get the place is busy but how long does it take for a manager to get a mop to protect his servers? Anyways, the set up and patio are decent but if you are hungry just make sure you eat before you come here. read more
