| - Found The Saint Tavern from a google search for best cheap steak in Toronto. The Saint was listed as having a skirt steak for $19 - sounded great, however it is actually market price on the menu. This means the price may fluctuate depending on what cut they are providing. We paid $24 for steak + matchstick fries, but this too is a very reasonable price for such a delicious steak! I've tried Harbor 60, Barberians, Michaels on Simcoe (never go to michaels), etc and while The Saint doesn't have the same selection of meat, the price is a tiny fraction of what you would pay at a fancy steakhouse.
The decor is plain. GOOD.. Don't know why, but I liked it. Maybe because I want the restaurant I eat at to focus on quality of service/food, rather than the things I consider trivial. And the Saint did just that - they blew their steak out of the park!
Service was sometimes good, sometimes bad. The food took some time to arrive. Our beer came, I asked for a glass to pour it in, and the girl who said she would come back with a glass never came back! I'm not a fan of drinking out of a can.. but I got over it quick. Anyway, I will definitely come back... specifically for the steak with it's creamy butter on top and matchstick fries with garlic aioli. mmmm
