We were seated, and 15 minutes went by with no server. Asked the hostess who happened to be 10ft from us if we could get a server. Seemed like a moot point considering all of the service staff was standing around talking about how best to tie their hair. Terrible experience. read more

We went here with a group of 6. We sat indoors at it was a day with high smoke levels. Had heard the patio was nice but not advisable that day. So crowded and loud. No one really liked their meals. Will not return. read more

Honestly very overrated and over priced imo. The ambience is great for both indoor and patio, but the food itself was just average. Too salty, doesn't feel very fresh. There are so many nice Italian restaurants in the neighborhood, like Grazie across the street. The food here really doesn't justify the price tag. They also charge for bread refills which is weird. I do like the drinks and desserts, but overall would not recommend. You can buy desserts directly downstairs from the coffee bar. read more

Stock has a grocery as well as a restaurant. The prices are high but for the most part that's justified by the quality. I have been spending about $200 a week since it opened in 2021. They have a line of small desserts like chocolate mousse, Budino, tirimasu etc. which are yummy but also, often, mouldy. We have complained numerous times but the problem persists so we have stopped patronizing them and think that for public health and reputation reasons they would try to improve, but not so far, nor do they respond to e-mails. Very disappointing but be warned. read more

So disappointed. Its our anniversary and we had a reservation for 4 guests this evening at a hightop table on the 2nd floor in the restaurant but when we arrived, we were told we had to sit on the patio. It was quite cold outside and we werent prepared to eat outdoors. To be honest, it felt as if we were on someone's deck. If we wanted patio seating, we would've requested it. The food was fair but the service was sporadic. Courses were arriving out of order or going to the wrong table. Sadly, the waiter didn't even ask if we wanted dessert before bringing us the bill. When I took the elevator to the 2nd floor to use the restroom, the restaurant had a great vibe that we totally missed out on by being forced to sit outdoors. What should've been a celebratory dinner, was just a night out. Not returning and certaing not recommending. read more

The good is that the dining atmosphere is lovely. The bad is that the food is ok at best. Main course portions aren't that generous and side dishes which are insanely expensive are minuscule. I'm not sorry that I visited this restaurant but I admit that I have no desire to return. read more

They brought wrong food for me. Instead of bringing new one, they brought old one. Cold steak with coagulating beef fat. I paid for $49 for that. The manager came to talk to me when I was in the bathroom, and didn't bother to comeback. The waitress kept hinting us to leave. They should've comped the meal. One of the worst dining experience. read more

Blue sky but they kicked us off the patio for "Rain". My parents drove all the way from Niagara to have lunch for my birthday. They have no idea how to run a restaurant. read more

At the grocery counter when paying, there was no option for not leaving a tip and when one declines anyway, the message comes asking you again to reconsider. This is for groceries that the customer picked up themselves. Management , please pay your servers properly rather than intimidating your customers into paying them for you. read more

I am a long time patron of all the component businesses in Stock, and I am very disappointed with the execution of this place. On paper it should be great. The selection of pastries does not reflect the style, nor come close to the quality of those found at Sud Forno. There are very few Italian pastries on offer. I tried a Basque cheesecake and Lobster tail. The Basque cheesecake (not Italian) wasn't good. The pastry on the lobster tail was hard and the filling kind of stodgy. We got a "Cumbraes" rib eye as well. I've cooked dozens of Cumbraes steaks, from all extant and closed restaurants. I've never had a bomb like this one. On my first visit, an entire item was left out of our bag. Valentine's day dinner spoiled. This place should work in theory, but needs a ton of work. read more

Expensive, and really bland food. Go for drinks and the atmosphere, I guess, but don't bother with expecting a good meal, or expecting good service. The food is really disappointing, and the servers know it - you can see the look on their faces before/ after ordering as they know the food quality isn't very good. Everyone I know that's been here has a disappointing experience - it's a one and done type of place. read more

Dined in with my friend for a weekend lunch. View from the bar was beautiful. Food and service were decent. I had Cobb's salad and my friend had seafood pasta. read more

service was terrible. you can't change anything on any order. i asked for a hamburger without the bun and was told no. no changes to any menu item. the restaurant is going too far to save on labour costs. read more

Booked a reservation through OpenTable for my mother's birthday for the 30 about 13 days prior. Received texts indicating my reservation was confirmed . Day of I arrive and find out staff were given the whole week off. No problem there but kind of take issue with no text or call to let me know. Can't even review it on OT since my reservation got changed to "cancelled" magically read more

Although on the pricier side, their food is good. I like to get their prepared food that you heat at home. Their takeout pasta is pretty good too, but I don't think I will still get it when everything is back to normal post-Covid because I'd rather eat inside the restaurant. But by then, Stock's restaurant should be open! read more

Our experience at this restaurant went to show that atmosphere can only go so far to compensate for mediocre food, and absolutely terrible service. It's really unfortunate that I needed to write this review as my partner and I have been looking forward to trying Stock for a couple of months now. After arriving to the restaurant, we immediately noticed how nice and cozy the atmosphere was - it definitely lends itself to a good first impression. Sadly and surprisingly, our waiter was the most disinterested, curt, and cold that I've encountered in a long time. Getting any kind of dish recommendation or asking for clarification of item menus was like pulling teeth. The drinks and main course took a while to bring out, and our table felt like an afterthought or an inconvenience. The hostess who initially led us to our table was great and very accommodating, but when your waiter is the opposite, it really puts a damper on the evening. The food itself was just okay, if a bit unremarkable for the price paid, though the cocktails we enjoyed were very tasty. This won't be a restaurant we'll be going back to, as it's hard to justify a gamble on another round of poor dinner service - especially at the premium price some of these menu items come at. read more

Lovely restaurant. Disappointing food. Lackluster service - more from management than from waitstaff. Don't respond to problems in a helpful, professional manner. Would not go back. read more

We went for dinner for our second time at stock TC. My wife and I started with the shrimp cocktail, it was a bit pricey but the size of the shrimp was really impressive. For our mains we order both the steak frites, it was my second time trying steak at stock. Unfortunately for the second time ordering steak at stock was a huge disappointment. Our steaks were chewy with no seasoning. Our desert for a gluten-free option was excellent- tiramisu. Overall service was great, ambiance was nice, appetizers are way better then the mains. read more

When I reserved the table I was told they only hold it for 5 minutes. I wish I had been late. The service was dreadful and made worse by the food. I ordered their dish of the day, trout with what sounded like an interesting combination of ingredients. It was awful - bland, tasteless, inedible and I couldn't wait to leave. One of our friend's ordered the pizza that was soggy and nearly beat the trout in tasteless The passion fruit dessert was overly sweet with a weird combination of ingredients and no subtlety of flavors. The only thing I did like was their olive oil they served with bread that could have been a lot crustier and as for their mojito - absolutely clueless how to make them. If they served it at The Ivy in LA they would be fired. read more

This was a strange, mixed experience. First, we had pizza as an appetizer & it was perfect. However, I had the steak frites for the main course and was shocked that they would only cook the steak one way. As a result it was over cooked (to my taste) and spoiled a perfectly good cut of meat. The service was fine but I would not eat here again. read more

July 17 - reserved a table for 3 pax at 3pm (Ideally at 2pm). However, no reservation was allowed between 12 noon to 3pm. When we arrived at 2:30 pm, the restaurant was empty on the second-floor dining room. Didn't understand why wouldn't they take my reservation in the first place at 2pm? July 29 - reserved a table for 2 pax at 6:30 pm. Be seated on the Rooftop when we arrived. Requested the outdoor patio but got rejected. However, there were tables available. Only two tables were seated indoors, our servers were too busy serving the guests outdoors but neglected us. July 31 - reserved a table for 2 pax at 1pm, requested rooftop patio. Be seated on a table without shields. Requested for a table under a shield but got rejected, even there were tables available under the shields. Aug 10 - reserved a table for 2 pax at 12:30 pm, also requested rooftop patio in advance. However, when we arrived, we were told our table was on the 2nd floor indoor dining. When I asked if the rooftop patio was available, then we were seated on the same table on July 31 without any shield. The weather was overcast and cloudy, it could rain any time so we requested a table under a shield. We got rejected again however there were so many empty tables under the shield that were available! Asked our server if we could switch and we were told they would move us only when the rain came down?! Aug 13 - I have reserved a table for 2 pax at 1pm for lunch. Requested for Rooftop patio but got rejected again! Very disappointed, not sure if I would go back to Stock anymore??!! Terry read more

I visited the other night had some of the best pizza I can remember, it was the materia which I complimented with a Krombacher. Excellent. Kudos to your waitstaff who hustled their **** off. The busboys especially worked the room and cleared . What a gang of hustlers. I heard them mention they were hockey juniors. Keep it up . Frankie Fishtown Philly read more

You are paying for decor only. Meat may be from cumbrae's, but the cooks (not chefs) have no idea how to prepare it. Steak tartare was like half cooked hamburger meat. Steak medium rare was completely raw on the inside! Albacore tuna was completely cooked through, not rare in the middle, like it should be. Our server, Mike, argued with us, as if he knew what he was talking about (no clue either). If you go, just stick to salads, pizza, burgers, something even short order cooks (who are likely in this kitchen) cannot mess up! read more

When making a reservation I tried to order to arrive after dinner a peanut butter cookie cake. They were out. I picked two they had. Lemon pie and a brownie with ice cream. It was an anniversary dinner, and these were to come with a candle. They did not and the quality was poor. On arrival the hostess had an issue finding our reservation for four as made. They had us for two. We waited a while and four were seated. I asked for a draft beer. It was good but the glass was small, shaped to look bigger than it was. Others asked for a large water and ice. No large glasses. I ordered the BURGER ROYALE $24 9oz, with Boston lettuce, cheddar, Stock burger sauce, pickle. No side comes with the burger. I asked for fries $10. When the burger came it sat alone on a plate with a pickle. Presentation awful. The bun was soggy and the lettuce too and the sauce ... the worst ever. I did not want to make a scene, so I ate it without complaint. My wife's BRANZINO $38 with Capers, black olive, chili, extra virgin olive oil was tolerable. Presentation was plain. No side came with it. Ordered FINGERLINGS $12 Smashed fingerling potatoes. Boiled plain but one of the best parts of the meal. The other couple ordered SPAGHETTI POMODORO $19 Tomato, basil, ricotta squanta, extra virgin olive oil. It was ok and the BURRATA E FUNGHI $28 Mozzarella, whole burrata, wild mushrooms, black pepper was ok. As said, the dessert preordered was poor. I did not look at Trip Advisor before I made a reservation ( #426 of 432 Italian in Toronto #5,357 of 5,517 Restaurants in Toronto) With such a low rating I am amazed that all three level of the restaurant were completely full. I will never step foot in that restaurant unless I lose a bet and am forced to do so. Overall experience 1 of 10 would be generous. PS: With most entrees no coming with any side, a charge for a basket of bread was $4! Outregeous! read more

This is a very beautiful space, aisles are tight but there's a very good selection here. I didn't try any of the hot foods, but I did get a variety of grocery items. I have very mixed feelings about my experience so I'll just break down what I tried. The good- Aussie Pie- this had a really good depth of flavour to it. Perogies- so tasty and very easy to prepare! The blah- Steak Chili- tasty, but the protein looked and tasted like ground beef not steak. It was $18 for a package so I feel like the value wasn't there. Nutella Cookies- tasty, but didn't seem fresh and were $10 for 6 of them so I was expecting more Lamb Pie- was lacking in flavour. It wasn't bad but for the amount of veggies in there I guess I was expecting more. Spinach and Ricotta Ravioli- bland. It didn't have that touch of salt or creaminess that ricotta is supposed to have, nor did it have much spinach flavour. The bad- Lemon and herb Cornish hen- looked great, but when cooked gave off a pretty fishy smell. Never again! Overall, I would go back but I'll try to be a bit more discerning about what I pick out because it seems very hit and miss. I went in with the impression that everything here would be delicious because of the brands attached, but unfortunately that's not the case for me. read more

I spent awhile roaming around the store as there are quite a few options for food. On the plus side, there is variety of specialty pantry items and produce which is convenient to have in the area. Unfortunately the food service I experienced was terrible. First of all I was told that no changes could be made to orders, but then later on a Manager told me it would be possible. I decided to order a steak sandwich for my boyfriend with a side of roasted potatoes then went to the pasta/pizza station to order something for myself. I again got the feedback that I couldn't change the pizza/pasta order to accommodate a dietary request. After deciding I would just get some salads I then had to wait 30 minutes as uber eats orders were flooding in. Now to the worst part, my boyfriend was unable to finish the steak sandwich is was so incredibly bad. He described it as gamey and a mess. He ended up being sick in the night from this terrible steak! The roasted potatoes had absolutely no seasoning on them and were completely bland. The other salads were ok. Such a disappointment spending $50 on takeout that was completely unsatisfying and caused someone to be sick. read more

Great addition to the Yonge/Eg neighbourhood. Stock TC has lovely selection of pre-made, pre-packaged foods as well as a good selection of unique deli offerings, fresh and cured meats and delicious pizza slices. 2 stars only because the manager insists on wearing a plastic mouth shield (no mask; no full face shield). I left immediately after my meat purchase today when he insisted on approaching me to explain (moth shield bobbing up and down) that the mouth shield "has been cleared." It's not, Stock TC. Check your facts and think of your staff and customers. read more

Went last night for dinner inside. The concept is great but they need to smooth out the rough edges. The staff was very green, the lightening needed to be lowered and the volume of the music consistent. Service staff was trying for sure but lacked confidence and finesse. The food quality was a bit all over the map. It seemed that the dishes that come straight out of the Terroni menu have been perfected but the shrimp cocktail at $25 was tasteless and rubbery and the steak frites could be amazing if the cut was better (a smaller portion of NY striploin or ribeye would be worth an extra $5) I would definitely stick to pizza and pasta when ordering. I can see this being popular with the younger crowd. read more

I don't like to write bad reviews BUT this restaurant needs a full review of many different aspects of the dining experience. The rooftop patio is beautiful and a great experience. The food is very decent and overall I would give it a good review. The rules of the restaurant...no substitutions, no alterations, no changes, no adding, no removing....They know best and will tell you so! Okay can I take the Kale off the pizza? "No" I'm not able to eat dark leafy greens, can it be made without the kale? "Order another pizza" I would like this pizza? "We have decided that this is how it tastes best so you cannot add, take-off, substitute, or have any change to anything on our menu" If you are okay with this condescending attitude of "we know more about what tastes good than you do" then you will love it. If you prefer to be treated like an intelligent person who might have food issues, allergies, sensitivities or just not like an item then BEWARE because they don't care!! read more

Hi and, Good Morning to all!!. My first time here and, certainly not my last based on what I see. Great management, friendly staff, great customer service. I bought a bottle of wine-best I ever had. Thanks to the girl and, Aziz. The rest are great and, I like the layout of the store. JP Preston. I applied here and, hope to get a call-back soon. read more

Absolute worst restaurant experience in Toronto. The portions were small, service was horrendous, prices ridiculous. The staff is rude and is inattentive. Many far better restaurants in the area. Covid protocol's not being followed either read more

The inside of the restaurant was absolutely beautiful. We sat on the second floor next to the bar in a yellow leather banquette. I would describe the style as masculine meets Art Deco. For starters we ordered the calamari, salmon crudo and the bread with butter but unfortunately they had run out of the bread. We received the calamari and salmon crudo not too long after ordering and started with the calamari which were nice and hot. The batter on the calamari was perfectly light and crisp however the actual calamari was very over cooked and rubbery. Our table had ordered two portions of the calamari and both plates were fully over cooked. The salmon crudo however was absolutely delicious, all the flavours worked really well together and the fish was very fresh. For our main we ordered the funghi pizza which was topped with burrata. The crust was really good and not too heavy and this pizza is perfect for mushroom lovers as they covered every surface of the pizza. The pizza was pretty decent but it needed more flavour. We asked for chilies in oil which really helped but it could've used more, perhaps a drizzle of olive oil or some herbs or dressed arugula on top? Overall it was a decent meal and I would come back, but it wouldn't be my first choice. I'd like to try their pastas and perhaps other apps. read more

See all

Beer took 12 minutes to come before dinner. Our server recommended today's special and my fiance got a pizza. When the food arrived my special was just an appetizer which he failed to inform me of and was unapologetic to the fact that my dinner was non existent. The food was a 2.5 out of 5, very basic. The pasta tasted like berilli and tomato sauce (ordered after my small main). I guess you pay those prices for the view. Round 2 would be rent a boat and order dominos read more

I was looking forward to this place! Unfortunately, I was very disappointed. We wanted to start with ordering the basket of bread... The waitress informed us that the bread does not come warm. So we said "OK no problem, can you please warm it up for us?" And she said to us "that the kitchen will not warm the bread." Seriously??? They couldn't warm up the bread in a professional kitchen?? Not normal. Next, we ordered the mushroom pizza and they served it whole, NOT SLICED. Who the heck serves a pizza not sliced? We actually had to cut our own pizzas into slices! What???? To make matters worse, they slapped on a huge ICE COLD burrata cheese on top of the pizza... just terrible... I asked for a side of marina sauce to dip the pizza in, in hopes to make it better, but again, the waitress informed me "they can't give a side of marina sauce. They just don't give sides like that." Is this a joke?! Not to mention the host who greeted us was horribly rude. Oh and they ran out of iced tea. Terrible experience, I do not recommend this place. read more

Stock Bar - Mushroom pizza with ice cold burrata cheese... not so good. - Steakhouses Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I have been to Stock Bar several times, the roof top patio is very nice in the summer, but by and large although service is OK I'd always thought it is about 20% overpriced. On this particular occasion (!2/8/22) we were told on arrival at 6:30 that we had to be out by 8PM as they had a large party showing up. We were not walk-ins as we had made the reservation a week earlier and there was no stipulation made about time limits when we made it. Sure enough at 7:55 our server showed up with the credit card machine and said we had to go. No offer of dessert, coffee or anything else. Long story short we called for the manager who ultimately (after much debate) comped us for our appetizers (+/-$60.00) out of a $300.00 bill. I'd always thought that the place was noisy and overpriced with average food and service . Now I know I won't be going back. It's obviously all about the almighty dollar not the customer. Don't bother going. read more
