| - We were supposed to dine here our first night in Toronto; but do to flight delays, we missed our dinner reservation. Since the restaurant is closed on the weekends and we were just visiting for a long weekend, we opted for lunch on our last day (Monday afternoon). I'm so glad that we ended on a high note!!! Canoe was awesome from start to finish.
Food:
Lobster clubhouse salad - the waiter suggested that I turn the lobster clubhouse sandwich into a salad. THANK YOU!!! It was amazing!! Fresh and light, but still had elements of a club sandwich.
Steak tartare - good appetizer, very fresh, went well with the crostini and the house bread.
Romaine salad - nice and light with fresh ingredients.
Steak frites - quality of the steak was better than what you would typically expect for steak frites. I believe it was a filet. It was cooked perfectly and seasoned well.
Butter tart - WOW!!!! GLORY!!!! It was indescribable! The desserts were just outstanding. It's been a few days and I'm still thinking about cake, toffee, ice cream, etc. Pure perfection.
Milk chocolate peanut caramel - Yes, I will take two, please!!! The whipped cream, ice cream, caramel, peanuts and cake sent me over the edge!!!
The wines by the bottle and glass were superb. We had a bottle of Pinot Noir from Oregon and glasses of Sauvignon Blanc from Niagara
The room and view are worth coming here on their own. The service was great.
I will definitely come back for dinner and lunch, if I find myself back in Toronto.
