| - While looking for the next best restaurant in Toronto I found The Chase. What a find!!! Not to be confused with the Chase Fish &Oyster. Our waitress asked how did you find us, normally it is only locals who come here. Good research, I stated. We were fortunate, the weather was phenomenal and we got a table on the 5th floor rooftop. I started with a selection of West Coast Oysters - OMG they were good. The avocado stuffed with shrimp was a work of art that had mouth popping flavors. The Black Cod was perfectly presented, tender and moist, also bursting with flavor. The side of Brussels sprouts cooked to perfection and tasted great. No wonder The Chase was the best new restaurant in Toronto in 2013 with high acclaim in 2014. Each dessert was impressive and tasty. Our server was knowledgeable, guiding us through what to order. An extensive wine list was available. The Chase also has hand crafted cocktails, which looked good, but I did not sample. At the end of the meal, our server, Annie, who proved to be a real asset, gave us a tour of the restaurant and we learned the Chase had an informal bar, and a more formal seating area, decorated in cool pleasing colors. It was a much larger restaurant than I originally thought. As we walked by the kitchen, it was clear these guys know what they are doing, efficient and well run. Overall, this was a great find. Get a reservation - treat yourself and significant other to a good meal, with the freshest ingredients, in a convenient location with friendly helpful service.
