We visited JOEY King St and sat on the patio, which was nicely set up. The restaurant itself is large and beautifully designed inside a historic building in the Financial District, and the patio is covered and comfortable even during colder weather. It's one of the largest JOEY locations in North America and has a lively, upscale-casual atmosphere that works well for both casual dinners, business meals and special nights out. We ordered the "Filet Mignon and Sushi", "Roasted Corn Guacamole", house wine, and a classic margarita. The food tasted good and we enjoyed the meal. The guacamole was a nice starter and the steak had good flavour, although it arrived a bit cold when served. Service was decent and the overall experience was pleasant, especially with the heated patio seating. read more

Liz had Tuna Poke. I had Chicken Parmesan. All were good. Lauren was our server ... she was friendly and took good care of us. read more

Stopped by Joey on King Street with a group of four and had a really enjoyable experience. I ordered the lobster spaghetti along with the cranberry cool drink--both were great. The pasta was rich and satisfying, with a nice balance of flavors, and the drink was refreshing without being overly sweet. Service really stood out. Our server was attentive, friendly, and did a great job keeping up with our table without being intrusive. Everything came out smoothly, and we felt well taken care of throughout the meal. Overall, a solid spot for a casual night out with good food and great service. Would definitely come back. read more

We came in on Boxing Day around lunch time, it was surprisingly quiet and no reservations were needed. That being said, service was fairly slow. It took us a while to get drinks and food. We really enjoyed the French dip appetizer- would eat again. We also enjoyed the pasta with steak and lobster (very lemon -y). For the steak frites I recommend upgrading to a better cut read more

Got to get Jay to serve you. So helpful and friendly. Food was so good. Started with the spicy crab dip with the truffle fries, prefect pair. Big portions. The steak and lobster spaghetti were just the best!! Katsua chicken salad had a bit of a kick. Truffle carbonara udon was creamy. Went well with the white sangria. You can't go wrong with any of the dessert also. The place was rocking with the DJ knowing his stuff. We were entertaining and stuff with great food and absolutely amazing service. Highly recommended. read more

We had a celebratory lunch at Joey - King St. for two people retiring from our Board. There were 14 of us. This restaurant is massive! But despite it's size, it wasn't too noisy even though it was full of diners. I had the Farmer's market salad with salmon which was delicious. Others at the table also enjoyed their meals. Our server saw the flowers and overheard discussions about retirement and prepared desserts for the people retiring. An excellent and classy move. Would highly recommend read more

This location is massive inside, with a nice and classy dark ambiance. Everything from the host, service, and ambiance, to the food and overall experience was 5 out of 5. All of our servers were very friendly, attentive, and able to customize our orders (take out or add on certain ingredients). They even gave us a surprise complimentary dessert plate for Thanksgiving in the end, which we did not expect. Review of the dishes we had: 1) Farmer's Market Salad (kale, lettuce, red cabbage, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, beets, strawberries, roasted corn, sunflower seeds, aged cheddar cheese, champagne vinaigrette) + grilled artichokes add-on - We were asked if we wanted a large or small size of the salad, and we opted for a large size to share. They were able to do the dressing and cheese on the side. The salad was fresh and a great complement to our main dishes. We also added extra grilled arthichokes which was not part of the original list of ingredients for the salad. 2) Lobster Tail (with crispy mashed potatoes, broccolini, and miso roasted mushrooms) - The lobster tail was great, despite it being quite small in size. The crispy mashed potatoes looked like deep-fried spring rolls, with mashed potatoes inside. I wasn't a fan. But the broccolini ("seasonal vegetable") was nicely crisp and not overcooked, which I loved. The miso roasted mushrooms were a bit too saucy and salty for me. 3) Oven-Roasted Wild Cod (with steamed and crispy rice, snap peas, cauliflower, almonds, and Thai peanut curry sauce) - I love cod so this dish was a winner. The cod was cooked perfectly, and the amonds added a nice crunch to the rice. There was a good amount of snap peas on the plate, with small pieces of cauliflower. I'm usually not a big fan of curry sauces, but this Thai peanut curry sauce was pretty good and went well with the fish and rice. 4) Lobster Spaghetti (spaghetti with Atlantic lobster, prawns, cherry tomatoes, Italian parsley, white wine, shallots, and lobster-lemon butter sauce) - As someone who is not a big fan of spaghetti, I actually liked this dish. There were more pieces of prawns than lobster. The spaghetti was al dente and the sauce was good (not too creamy or overpowering). The Italian parsley added a nice herbacious garnish, and the cherry tomatoes added a touch of freshness. 5) Complimentary Thanksgiving Desserts: Mango & Pineapple Fruit Compote, Crème Brûlée Cheesecake, Coconut Whip Cream - This was unexpected and a nice surprise in the end. The mini desserts were plated very nicely and decorated on the plate too, saying "Happy Thanksgiving". I liked that the portion of each of the 3 desserts was small, as we were already very full by the end of the meal. I found it to be a very nice gesture, which elevated the dining experience (that was already very good and satisfying to begin with). read more

Joey's King Street offers luxury at mid tier pricing. Upon entering the venue, you will see soaring ceilings, upscale decor. They offered us free bubbly upon entry. I ordered the Seafood Linguine and Steak combo. It was delightful in flavour and the steak was perfectly cooked. The server was attentive to our group of 8 and had a positive experience. They also offered a free dessert as we were celebrating onboarding a new team member. If you are looking for an exceptional service experience, you found the right restaurant! read more

Joey on King has the most epic vibe!!! The space is huge, and it's bustling with a live DJ playing music that is tempting your body to sway to the rhythms. With champagne bottles on display in sparkling ice, and people having a sip while waiting to be seated....it's already a great start to the evening. The food is also fantastic. I love how the menu caters to all kinds of diners. My vegetarian and gluten free teammates were certainly satisfied. Same for myself too as I zoomed right into the steak in front of me. Loved the miso sauce that came with the steak, making it distinct from other steaks in the city. Service was a little slow as we were 15 people, so it's understandable. But at least the food didn't come to us cold. Will definitely go back for sure. read more

We walked in here without a RSVP and was told it would be about a 45 minute to 60 minute wait. We left our name and number and walked away. 15 minutes later we got a text saying our table was ready. There's ample street parking and parking lots a few blocks away. This restaurant is impressive. There's an open kitchen in the center that was immaculate. The menu did require me to bust out my reading glasses. Their menu has something for everyone, and everything was cooked and seasoned to perfection. The Tomahawk ribeye was cooked well, and delivered already cut in portion pieces (thank you!). The pasta was cooked very well, and the beef carpaccio was fresh. Our waitress's Mona friendly and elevated the dining experience frequently stopping by and checking on us. Surprisingly a restaurant of this perfection, the price was reasonable. read more

Everything was absolutely amazing! The decor was beautiful, the service was fast and outstanding, and the food was top-notch. It took only about 5 minutes for our food to come out, and everything arrived right away within about 10-15 minutes. Our server, Serena, was incredibly helpful and funny she made a few jokes that had our whole table laughing and really lightened the mood. When I mentioned it was my birthday, they surprised me with a super cute dessert, which made the experience even more special. 100/10, would definitely recommend! read more

Shout out to Marston, Emma, and Shanelle--the best servers! Really enjoyed our time at Joey and it made our happy hour an absolute delight. This Joey location offers a bubbly upon entry, likely because it's still newly opened. It's a really nice touch that helps set the tone! The happy hour here is actually fantastic-genuinely good deals and great drinks/foods. All the servers (especially Marston) are amazing and accommodating to our group. The food and drinks are amazing! And service is fantastic all-round. read more

Great happy hour spot located in the financial district. This is their flagship location. They had a violinist walking around playing live music . I was also greeted with Prosecco while waiting for table. The service was great. Food was mediocre but vibes were good. Lots of open space and there's an open kitchen. Washrooms were pretty clean. There's limited parking nearby so I recommend taking public transit read more

I always liked the Joey chain restaurants but was simply amazed by this particular location. This Joey king street flagship location is the largest in North America and it is absolutely stunning. The space feels warm and inviting, with beautiful decor and tall trees that give it such a cozy vibe. I ordered the truffle Parmesan fries and the truffle udon carbonara, and both were incredible. The fries were super crispy but still pillowy soft on the inside, and the aioli on the side was a great pairing. But the truffle udon carbonara completely blew my mind--it was probably the best thing I've eaten all year. The flavour was perfect: umami, creamy, and so rich. The only thing I wish was for the udon to be a bit chewier since it was slightly overcooked, but that didn't take away from how good it was. I also got the real peach bellini to go with dinner. it was a frozen slushy cocktail and it was really yummy. I also had a sip of their mai tai, which was good, but I still prefer their iconic peach bellini. The flower garnish on the mai tai was also such a nice touch and perfect for photos. I'm so happy I got to try Joey king street, and I'm already excited to come back. I can't wait to try more of their appetizers and other dishes, but I'll definitely be ordering the truffle udon carbonara again! read more

My friend and I stopped in for dinner based on a recommendation from another friend who hails from Toronto. I was skeptical about going to a chain restaurant, but we wanted something relatively close to the Rogers Centre with some lighter fare that still had reservations available 1-2 weeks in advance (it was one of the Eras tour weekends!)... Joey turned out to be perfect. The whole place is a vibe, from the moment you walk in the door and are handed a complimentary glass of sparkling wine. We were taken promptly to our high top, round booth that was well suited for a larger group (though it was just the two of us). Our super friendly server greeted us and circled back quickly for our drink order. We were heading into a long night and chose to try their espresso martinis, which were some of the best I've ever had and offered the perfect balance of espresso, vodka, and vanilla flavors without being overly creamy or chocolatey. We started our meal with truffle parmesan fries (delicious!) and then opted for lighter entrees. I chose the Yellowfin Tuna Salad, which had layers of textures and flavors to create a dish that was both interesting and delicious. We didn't try dessert this time, instead opting for a second round of espresso martinis. One note: The seating was comfortable, but beware the opening between the back of the bench and the seat as I managed to immediately knock my coat behind our booth onto the floor into a location where we were only able to rescue it by walking around to the lower, thankfully empty booth behind us to retrieve it. I then discovered the well-placed coat hangers next to the booth, but I'd imagine there's a fairly regular search and rescue for lost items. Otherwise, even as a chain restaurant avoiding millenial, I'd love to go back to Joey next time I am in the vicinity of this location or others. read more

My fiance made a reservation there Aug 30 2025, It was supposed to be special evening for us since we got engaged just before going there. When we arrived there the hostess look at us condescendingly ( We dress up accordingly ). Then we waited 15mins for the waitress to get us our order( It was not the waiting that pissed me off) the only reason she went to our table because I was looking at her,She went to other table who arrived after us to get their order. She came their to check on us like she doesn't care.l, Just went there for the paycheck or tips.When we left the manager check on us and my fiance told everything. I honestly don't want to leave any tip because I was pissed but he did because he is a good guy. FYI food is great no complains but Will never go back due to lack of service! It might just be 1-2 staff that ruined the night and not fair for the rest, The ambiance is very important when you eat good food read more

My client wanted to try this steakhouse, which was a ten minutes walk from our hotel. We didn't have reservations but were able to get a table immediately. We were offered a complimentary glass of sparkling wine as we entered. (We don't drink so we declined, but there were five choices.) There is a happy hour menu from 2-4pm or after 9pm, with food and drink specials. We were there after 7, so it was the regular menu for us. We declined the starters - great choices by the way, from simple truffle Parmesan fried with grainy mustard aioli to a magnificent and pricey seafood tower. There were a number of salads and bowls, one chowder option, and entrees. We opted for the Joey classic steak. One medium, one medium rare. Accompanied by two deep fried mashed potatoes with a sprinkle of bacon, chives and sour cream. Not bad! The broccoli with hollandaise sauce was also okay. Sadly, my steak was so raw I couldn't cut/chew much of it, so they cooked it a little more. By the time it came back, my client had finished her plate. It was still raw, so I sawed it into extremely tiny pieces so that I could at least chew and swallow. To be fair, the plate came back with new broccoli without the sauce, two new mashed potato sticks, and a not quite hot steak. Yikes. To end the meal, I opted for the apple pie dessert with Canadian maple ice cream. This helped make up for dinner, so I left with a smile. My client enjoyed her molten lava chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream. Service was decent, the waitress checked up on us several times. I would say that a tad more concern for the edibility of my meal would have been greatly appreciated. Taste wise, the pepper on the steak was decent. The bar and hockey on tv screens appeared to be a popular spot; you can watch the food being fired up at the chef grills; and there are tables and booths to choose from. (The restrooms are spacious, right past the chef stations.) read more

I was not expecting this level of awesome from a chain. The restaurant is a large open space and is absolutely stunning. The waitresses are dressed like models and are all very friendly. The food was absolutely incredible. I got the filet mignon w broccolini and mashed potatoes (yes those are fried mashed potatoes, the best part of the whole meal) and my wife got the truffle udon with shrimp. Everything was flavorful and delicious. The complimentary beverage when you walk in was a nice touch, especially since they had n-a options as well. read more

The hostess was very kind, but unfortunately the service after we were seated was extremely disappointing. We were sat and then waited...and waited...with no acknowledgment from our server or staff. As a former server myself, I understand how busy restaurants can get, but a simple "I'll be right with you" or any form of communication would have gone a long way. This place came highly recommended by our hotel, which made the experience even more disappointing. Sadly, it ended up being our least favorite stop. read more

I hate that I am giving this 3 stars as the location is aesthetically pleasing, had good vibes/ food and a late night happy hour menu available from 10pm until close. So you're probably wondering why I'm only giving a 3 star review. If you've read any of my other reviews you will know that I am very big on service (especially now that the auto gratuity is being added to every check no matter your group size). And here as where Joey's lacked. I sat at the bar and wasn't acknowledged for a little while. Almost to the point where I wanted to get up and leave. Someone finally came over, handed me some water and said she would be with me shortly. That shortly turned into another long period of waiting. Just think this type of service is ludicrous especially when you're sitting at the bar and you can make eye contact but not get acknowledge. read more

Joey on King Street is quickly becoming a go-to spot in the city, and for good reason. The restaurant is massive, offering plenty of space, a stylish ambiance, and a diverse menu with something for everyone. We tried the Whipped Ricotta appetizer, Truffle Udon Carbonara, and Ahi Tuna Club Burger, and everything was fresh, flavorful, and well-executed. The real standout was the Whipped Ricotta--incredibly light and fluffy, paired perfectly with buttery, toasted bread. The service was just as impressive as the food, making for an all-around fantastic dining experience. They also have daily happy hour from 2:00 PM - 5:00 PM and late-night specials (Sunday - Thursday from 9:00 PM to close, Friday - Saturday from 10:00 PM to close). Definitely a place worth checking out! read more

There's a vibe about this place that few restaurants achieve but it just so happens that Joey excels at - Joey is cool, modern, trendy, lively, but also doesn't take itself too seriously. They achieved a certain magical balance that I hope they can keep which is the staff was perfect, the atmosphere was sexy, the cocktails were great, and all of the food was dynamite. This place deserves the swagger they have. Oh and there was a roving saxophone player, who was perfectly in tune with the DJ, and who was also very easy on the eyes (like everyone else that works there). read more

I visited Joey's for dinner during my first trip to Toronto and was very pleased with the experience.

We mentioned to our waitress that it was our first time in Toronto, that we were attending the Chris Brown concert, and even shared some of the challenges we faced during our travels, like our canceled flights. To our surprise, she returned with a customized plate highlighting our reason for visiting. Such a thoughtful touch made the night unforgettable--10/10! read more

Spent a couple of nights in Toronto and didn't want to go too far from my hotel. Luckily, Joey - King Street was less than a block away. Started with the gyoza appetizer - solid. Good filling - not too heavy and just the right amount. Wife had the Udon Carbonara with Katsu chicken. Great presentation. The chicken was delicious. My wife recommends it. Daughter had the cheeseburger. She said it was the best she has had in a LONG TIME! I was lucky to taste it and it was a great bite! Well seasoned and cooked. I had the steak - great seasoning and cooked perfectly! The chef's interpretation for mashed potatoes was interesting and well done. They were prepared as a spring roll with the sour cream, bacon, and chives on the top. Last but certainly not least - Julia was an excellent server. Spent just enough time to make us feel welcomed and wanted. Request to sit in Julia's section - you won't be disappointed. read more

We hosted our family Christmas dinner at JOEY King Street, party of eight, and the evening was a great example of how STRONG SERVICE can shape an entire experience. I also want to acknowledge the hostess team--the champagne greeting upon arrival was a thoughtful touch and a STRONG first impression, setting the tone right away. Our server, Bailey, was excellent from the start--warm, relaxed, and genuinely attentive. When we ordered the King's Fire-Roasted Seafood Tower and realized it wouldn't be quite enough to share, she immediately suggested a complementary option that paired perfectly. No hesitation. No menu checking. She clearly knew the menu WELL. Bailey had a solid handle on the drink menu and specials, and her recommendations felt natural, not salesy. The champagne offered on arrival was a great touch, and I ended up sticking with that SAME champagne for the rest of the night. Despite being in the heart of downtown and during the holidays, the service never felt rushed or impersonal. Polished, calm, and well-paced throughout. A great spot for a group dinner, and credit where it's due--Bailey made the night run smoothly from start to finish read more
