Amazing experience! Fantastic food and beautiful vibe with great service. The hard part was locating the restaurant entrance as it was tucked away slightly in a alley but I loved the speakeasy vibe of that. A pleasant combination of seafood and beef. The prime rib was absolutely amazing all the sides and appetizers were beautifully executed. Visit the cool washroom in the main floor. If your enjoy a chill contemporary steak and seafood restaurant this is a must try. read more

Great steak, yummy potatoes, showed us the kitchen, gave us candy. Definitely recommend.

I can't even because if I do, I'll want it. THE PRIME RIB thick cut 30oz is a chonky slice that has some SERIOUS fatties which if you dont know is THEEEEE flavor of flavors. I die for fatties. I request the fatties. my family knows to gimme the fatties because one day you should indulge in a fatty bite and close your eyes and savor. it's soooooOOOOOOO good. also got the tomatoes which was honestly like candy. the squid cheese thing w spicy oil is a MUST- what an inventive healthy bowl. that squid is cooked to perfection. mmmm. it's just so good. Bread loaf w mussels and pickled veggies is cute - classic delicious bread... scalloped cubes fried potatoes was our go to sidekick. very good too.. I loved the beef, squid, and tomatoes. GET it. oh, service is lovely...OOOOH wait - the piña tamarind colada is a surprise that you'll crave. like an ultra fancy non-carbonated coconut-y jarritos read more

Food was over priced with the caviar tasteless Wine was minimally poured Prime Rib was excellent, but overpriced with everything extra, side salad was deconstructed and when integrated was mediocre Flies were were a constant issue showing little care on the staff part to keep the place cleaner. We were expecting more from a Matty Matheson restaurant, but expect this is an issue with the restaurant and not Matty. read more

Seriously one of the best dinners we have ever had! Just an amazing experience from start to finish! Our server Kevin was so good. He was attentive and gave us great recommendations for food and wine. I love that they emphasize small plates to be shared so you can taste a variety of dishes. We started with the Sicilian crudo and loved the fresh fish with olive oil, herbs and capers. Really fresh and delicious. We also had the shrimp and kohlrabi bisque which we both agreed was one of the most interesting dishes we have ever had! And the palace bacon was definitely a standout. It melts in your mouth and had a lovely Asian style bbq glaze. We decided to splurge on the wagyu filet and it was rich and unctuous...unlike any beef we have ever had. The 8 oz filet was more than enough for the two of us because it was so rich and flavorful. The palace potatoes with aioli chili were crispy and delicious and other standout sides for us were the broccoli and the fioretto with winter truffle. The desserts are amazing and overall I can't recommend this restaurant enough! Truly a wonderful evening and a great way to spend our first night in Toronto!! read more

I love Matty Matheson. Been a fan since before he blew up. Love his burger joint down the street. Other than the interior design of this restaurant, nothing to boast about imo. Food felt overpriced for the quality. Spent well over $300 (including tax and tip) for the tuna tartare ($34), spicy crab ($75), 20oz prime rib roast ($135), and palace potatoes. We were accidentally given the beef tartare and that was left on our bill in addition to the tuna tartare. NBd. We weren't a fan of the texture of the tuna tartare and having to break the shrimp crackers as it caused a lot of mess. Flavor wise, cracker seasoning was good but tuna was muted. Spicy crab was a real let down. Small cup of crab soup essentially for $75 is wild. Green onions brought the dish down a lot imo. Their slimey texture was unpleasant. Would have preferred a fresh green onion garnish. Palace potatoes were cool in shape and how they were cut accordion-style. But in the end, they are potatoes and taste like homefries. The prime rib was nice and tender (not tender enough to not need a knife). But paying $135 for a 20oz and having a good 8oz or so be pure thick chunks of fat is wild. We both felt nauseous after finishing this and our hearts almost seized. Sadly a let down. I like Matty's comfort and more down-to-earth style of cookery. Fine dining isn't for everyone and definitely not for me. read more

Delicious food in a gorgeous setting. The palace seafood cocktail and prime rib roast were standouts for me. For dessert there was chocolate cake and key lime pie. Both were incredible. The meringue on the key lime pie was unlike anything I had ever experienced before. read more

Very great customer service but food was worse than I expected. Their prime rib was excellent. Very tender and nicely seasoned. Cabbage with chicken skin had great char and flavours too. But besides that, their tomohawk was extremely over cooked and under seasoned. You literally only taste the char. We sent it back and they suggested the striploin instead. Pretty much the same thing. Their sides are also pretty weak. Gem lettuce was so underwhelming, the Yorkshire pudding was dry, and their leek was so hard. Super overrated restaurant driven by hype. read more

Amazing food and service! The interior of prime seafood is so well done and professionally thought out. If its your first time definitely chat with your server about what they would recommend and just trust what they say. It is a little pricey, but everything is very fresh and the fish and meats are high end cuts. Definitely a great place to go for a special occasion! read more

Visited PSP yesterday evening for my fourth-year anniversary with my partner. Our waitress Sarah made our experience incredible. We ordered the filet mignon and the Sicilian crudo, along with palace potatoes. Everything was exceptional. By far the best-tasting meal we've ever had. The quality/flavors were to die for. We also enjoyed the bread service with fresh butter, warm bread, and mussels- this was our favorite dish and we cannot stop talking about it. Our dessert (cannot remember the name) was a vanilla ice cream topped with chocolate mousse and filled with a raspberry sauce/filling. It was brought to us with a lit candle for us to blow out, it truly made our night special. The ambiance is amazing, the food was delicious, and we had the greatest experience thanks to our waitress Sarah. Will definitely be visiting again for special occasions. Thank you so much for a special night! read more

We had a later dinner at Prime Seafood Palace, and the atmosphere was hopping. It is very clear that this spot is popular, and tasting the good it is clear why. First, there are not loud or large signs announcing PSP's presence, just a cleverly placed logo at the door. Entering, the decor is neutral toned, warm, and light, which was a perfect offset to the cold Toronto November. We had the tartare with shrimp crackers -- and it was such a genius pairing that I will want this always. The dish had acidic and herbal touches to make it a light starter that was full of flavor. Then was the smoked fish with creme fraiche and roe with a corn waffle... and I felt this was the fancy and fabulous auntie of a lox bagel. The texture and flavor of the corn waffle was a great counter balance to the maple smoked fish, the creme fraiche added a silky anchor to it all. For the main course, we had fluke with a roe beurre blanc, and paired it with a side of potatoes (prepared like Thomas Keller's potatoes Pave), and a braised cabbage. All in all, it was a decadent evening, but because we stuck to almost all seafood -- not crazily so. This was the right amount of food for two people. I can imagine it would have been enough for four people if we had ordered a steak or beef that evening. For dessert, I went with the chocolate cake and it was clear to me that it was decadent -- a ganache like filling and a fudge like frosting to seal it all in. The depth of chocolatey flavor is unlike anything I have had or made myself, and entirely worth it. I do recommend sharing because the portion is ample for two people. Service at the Prime Seafood Palace was impeccable and attentive, but not overbearing. If in Toronto and looking for a great evening out or on a date, I would recommend. read more

I had to sit with this one for a while to even process the experience we had at PSP. I don't want to share the full details of our dining experience, but the team here is unrivaled and they made our experience truly unforgettable. Chef Coulson and his team serve immaculate dishes that run the culinary gambit. The seafood course was absolutely fantastic, with the Grilled Humboldt Squid and Uni Chawanmushi being the standouts alongside an excellent offering of Sicilian Crudo and a heirloom tomato salad. While the Palace Bacon is a sure fire hit, do not sleep on the anchovy mascarpone stuffed Habanada peppers or the Baby Gem salad. Our main course included dry aged Norfolk Tomahawk plated in rendered fat from the offered A5 Wagyu, Badger Flame Beets, Yorkshire Pudding, and Sieglinde Potatoes accompanied with the PSP Reserve Caviar. The steak was incredible, along with all of the accompaniments. We were truly left speechless by this restaurant and it made a special trip from Arizona one that we will remember forever. Thank you PSP! read more

Definitely had some highlights, including the beef, the appetizers, side, dishes, and the most incredible desserts I've ever had. However, the duck was very tough. But the worst part of the night was that our waiter tried to scam us out of $200. We were a table of five who split the bill three ways. one of us paid 200 because they didn't have the beef, then when the other two couples split the remainder of the bill, the waiter added $100 to each of their totals hoping we wouldn't notice and would just tap our cards. When I pointed it out to him he got very argumentative. But we walked him through the math, and then he said, " I must've punched the wrong number by accident." However, he already ran through the one bill with the extra hundred dollars at it on. So he ran out the second part of the split with the cracked amount. I still told him he owed the first couple $100 and he shouted at us. "I don't owe you anything". We kept insisting he was wrong and he finally relented. Some guy came out from the back and gave us $100 bill. At that point we were so freaked out and didn't realize how weird that was until we left the restaurant. I wanted to talk to the manager but at that point the group was pretty shook. Just be careful and check your bills and what you actually are paying. When in fancy restaurants, people don't want to question the bill in fear they will look "cheap'". Please do your due diligence and check those numbers! read more

The Emperor's New Clothes. Extremely expensive (~$400 per person) with nothing to show for it. Food was not tasty nor delicious. Bread "service" meant one serving of burnt bread (with excellent mussels, I'll give them that compliment). Uni sandwich tasted like toast only, which covered the taste and texture of the tuna belly and sea urchin. Steak ($165) was unforgivably overcooked and bland. Service took so long that we were not allowed to order dessert. To be clear, we were basically ignored all night and then forced to leave the restaurant unsatisfied. I will not return. My reservation said we were supposed to be seated in the cottage room, but, instead, they put us at the worst table in the main room. read more

Mediocrity from start to finish. I was really excited to try this place after hearing a lot of good things. Let's break it down: First of all, you feel as though you're dining in a Scandinavian airport; aesthetically, the restaurant couldn't be more tone deaf to its neighborhood. I mean, a hospital gown would have cozied things up. The staff were attentive and polite, but there was no human touch to anything at all. The food was all...fine. My friend and I had the bone-in striploin, the gem lettuce, grilled mackerel, palace potatoes, and asparagus. The steak for the price ($185) was ok and massively overpriced for what you get which was...a fine steak. The salad was equally unimpressive with all of the dressing a gloopy mass at the bottom of the plate, underneath all the leaves. The mackerel at least had a pleasant smokiness to it though I found it a bit odd when the waiter proudly stated it was from Boston. In Canada...with the abundance of fish we have...at this price point...we're flying in mackerel from Boston? Okay? The palace potatoes were essentially cubes of mashed potatoes, scored throughout and then fried. Square tater tots basically. And the asparagus was asparagus. I was excited to dine here but everything was so pedestrian. With the hype and the price point, I expected innovative food preparations, authenticity, and a human touch driven by a passion for food . Prime Seafood couldn't get even one of these things right. read more

Among the very top dining experiences of my lifetime. Flawless food. Great service. Magical space.

TLDR; go for the interior design, stay for everything else. To be completely honest, we were not expecting much out of this experience. We went in thinking that it would be all about the interior design and weren't particularly excited about the way the menu read and were planning on a few drinks and apps. From the second we walked in the door we were proven wrong. We were 30 mins early for our 6:30 res and the host was so kind and had us sat immediately. We were greeted by the server, Emma, who was so warm and welcoming and had amazing recommendations for wine and explained details of the food that the menu can't begin to cover. Ordered the lobster pasta, bread service, and bacon to start, all of which were out of this world, though the pasta was a little on the salty side. Bacon is made chashu style and was so snackable and tender with the perfect amount of fat and the bread was so delicious with tender mussels. Got the prime rib and mashed potatos for mains and they were both delicious and a great pair (per Emma's recommendation also). Large portions across the board and left beyond stuffed and satisfied. Amazing job to the team and staff! read more
