I'm a little surprised this place got such bad reviews. I was in Toronto on business with a group of co-workers. We went to Rain - it was recommended by a local.
Since the menu was a bit confusing we decided to go with the Chef's Menu, an 6 course menu.. Everything was absolutely divine! There was a lobster soup, 2 fish dishes, 2 meat dishes and dessert. All creative dishes and all fabulous.
I plan to visit Rain again on my next visit!
