"Ladies and Gentlemen, get your wallets ready!\n\nIf you're looking for an intimate evening out in Toronto, perhaps a romantic evening or a special occasion, and have some money to throw around, I'd say 5th Grill is a nice experience. If you're counting your pennies, I'd say maybe move on...\n\nWe went because my friend was singing there for their Jazz night, Sophie Berkal-Sarbit, check her out!\n\nAnd it was a lovely evening.\n\nI don't usually go out for steak as I have some great butchers around me and can easily make steak at home. In fact I'm usually pretty skeptical about dropping $40 for a steak anywhere because of this.\n\nBut if you're looking for a nice dining experience I think the 5th Grill is a real treat.\n\nYou take an old wood elevator up to the dinning area. The setting is intimate and comfortable. The chairs are plush, the space is small, the lighting is soft.\n\nYou order the meat individually but they have a wide selection of shared sides which I love.\n\nI like that although they are expensive, they don't try to take advantage like some places do. You pay for your meat and you can taste the quality. \n\nThey let you order the sides separately to share which is a nice experience. I love sharing food because you can try more food. And although I ordered their fixed menu, the table beside us ordered a large selection of sides and they all looked delicous... I was envious... \n\nI also ordered sparkling water and it was $6 and they refilled it all night, unlike some places that try to gouge you on these little things.\n\nIf you just want a good steak, I can definitely recommend some good butchers but if you want a nice dinning experience, I had a wonderful time at the 5th Grill. \n\nThe food was good, and the entire experience felt like a treat and definitely a more intimate and comfortable experience then a lot of the trendy high end restaurants in Toronto."^^ . .
