  • I think 4 stars should have been the natural rating for this restaurant. I believe service and ambience is good. The ambience is a good balance between homey and quiet elegance. The idea of being able to enjoy good seafood in downtown Toronto alone, should have been a sure win. Fisherman's Wharf fanned on that shot greatly and folded. So let's face it, The Chase can win this without even breaking a sweat. Where did they go wrong? Simple, the food was just simply not that stunning. They had options, but only just. This restaurant may have been accidentally bowled over by its own internet presence, because the yelp reviews surely catapulted it to heights that it never could beat. I found that the lack of choices in late June seemed a bit unusual considering how great my fellow yelpers were raving about this place. Choice being an issue, the next was really the portions. Did I say quiet elegance earlier with regards to the ambience? That's because it had that hint of upscale posh. It brought with it a swagger of confidence, that it will attract the young and ambitious. I felt it, looking at the menu, the meal being served, and felt that I just wasn't one of those young and ambitious young people who are often stereotyped to require a high class gym membership, a high kale-based diet, complete with a strict adherence to eating very little. All of that, topped with a very luxurious paycheck that allows them to go through with this meal without hardly blinking an eye. Don't get me wrong, I don't think less of the stereotype I just listed, I just know I'm not really the type of person The Chase is trying to cater to. In all honesty though, the food tasted great (especially if you ordered the more flamboyant choices or the seafood bake). I just can't help but think, I could have a better spend of money elsewhere and feel more fulfilled in the end. It felt like going for a fancy meal, but all I ended up getting was fancy, but not much of a meal. Will I come back? I have my doubts. I won't discourage people from going, but I think you really need to pre-eat before going. Wait, doesn't that defy the purpose of going to a restaurant to eat in the first place?
