  • Kost (pronounced coast) is a pretty trendy spot with it's gorgeous views of the city and the CN tower. Definitely a place for a photo op but as a few have said skip the food and get one drink! First off, we did come with no reservation and they said it would be a 30 minute wait. Hmm not too bad at all! We happened to bump into some nice guys where we joined their table to wait. Their table was located in a non-umbrella area outside. It was an excruciatingly hot day and we had to ask the servers several times for water! The heat was so unbearable that we asked multiple times to be moved to empty seats that were inside. We were told that they were taken. We had been there for 30 min and the tables still weren't taken. The hostess was very dishonest and not helpful at all! Finally my friend went back to the hostess and she refused to accept "no" for an answer and so we were moved to table in a cooler area near the pool but still no shade. I had asked the waiter to be moved previously and he said no because it gets too confusing for the tables. Ummm is it that hard to move one group to another table that you are also waiting? Mind you we never had a table we had just crashed a random group's table. Kost seems very poorly organized. It isn't that big and the waiters were huffing and puffing about moving tables that were in their seating area. In addition, it took forever to get water. I mean it's a 30 degree day with no umbrella and no water. Do you want lawsuits on your hands? Give a table a jug of water! It's not that big of a deal. Also the bathrooms are on the 43rd floor just below Kost (44th floor)! How does that work?! Eventually we got sick and tired of roasting in the sun and as soon as a group beside us moved, we took over the table despite what every person in the restaurant told us not to do and guess what? No one even blinked an eye. Ridiculous! On to the food: I would say Kost it's pretty sad in terms of food. The pancakes looked straight from my kitchen. These aren't the fluffy buttermilk pancakes from Mildred's Temple Kitchen, they're just sad flat pancakes with some fruit on top. For myself, I got the breakfast burrito and it was salty and lacking real flavour and dare I say egg? I mean isn't that supposed to be the main ingredient? The scrambled egg also seemed fake and artificial like the egg you get at McDonald's. The mimosa I ordered was delicious but was it worth $15???!!!! I would have to say no! We waited a ridiculously long time for our drinks and even longer for our food. It didn't seem that busy and there were lots of servers and chefs cooking up a storm in the restaurant. Would I go back for food? Hell no! Would I go back for a drink? Maybe. Would I go back for the view and ambiance? Yes. The only reason the place gets a second star.
