Best Steakhouses in Stonegate-Queensway

I went to Aera ( in The Well ) with my sister who lives in BC and she wanted a rooftop with a good view. Aera is 38 stories and has an amazing view of downtown Toronto . We were at the Chef's counter and had a great views of the CN Tower. The host was great. She showed us two options for seating, where we were reserved and one more option. I had the mac and cheese which was delicious. They put mushroom and onion in it. And we each had a cocktail. I had the Amelia, I think it was called. It was tasty but quite small, that was the only thing. My sister's cocktail was a more reasonable size. The guys beside us had a cheeseburger and it looked so good! The service was great . They server was friendly and service was fairly quick . The restaurant is on the more pricey side and so are the drinks. But if you are looking for a great view of the city it's worth it. I definetly recommend and would go again.

The food is amazing. Dessert is the best of the best lava cake service really really good and very, very friendly atmosphere. I go there a lot. I have no complaints whatsoever. You should try it.

Linny's offers the whole package. A unique and elegantly designed space with an atmosphere that takes you back to the 50's, paired with warm service and delicious food. We started with the challah service, which is baked daily and served with a delicious housemade jam that apparently changes with the seasons. After that, a few noshes; the fresh house salad tossed with bulgar and champagne vinegraite, king salmon served with crispy potato latkes, and the unexpectedly delightful kasha bows pasta, which was complimented perfectly by the addition of truffles. For our mains, we enjoyed a combination of perfectly cooked hanger steak, mushroom crepe, and the crunchiest fries on ossington. The cabbage with beemster cheese was also *chefs kiss* 👌 Our server Vanessa and the whole team was very friendly, and we can't wait to come back. PS. The babka dessert was incredible, but also try the apple cake with a scoop of their vanilla ice cream for good measure.

All the food was excellent, heads up portions are massive, every starter/salad/side is sharable. We had the Caprese salad to start, which was incredible, if I had any critique of it, could have used a bit more balsamic glaze there were more than a few bites without any glaze on the tomatoes at all. As well, the tomatoes were so large that there wasn't even a 40/60 split of cheese to tomato which I think is the perfect ratio for this salad, who doesn't want cheese in every bite? The steaks were phenomenal, no question, can't go wrong. Almost so good, it is a wonder they don't put the main entrées in appetizer format so people would actually order them. The duck fat fried French fries were tasty, but I did find a lack seasoning to them. I found myself putting the steak salt into the ketchup just to add some seasoning to the fries due to how thick each fry is, not sure if that is intentional but just an observation. I would consider asking kitchen to salt the fries with any of the 3 salts before it gets to table so they can hold the seasoning better being fresh out of the fryer. The lobster Mac n cheese was excellent, period. Creme Brulee for dessert was delicious the berries were fresh and the cream was delicious. Service was top quality, only critique is that I found it took the service longer than 5 min to initially approach our table for initiating drink orders. Not a huge deal, but was sitting there wondering "wow, I'm surprised we haven't been seen by a server yet" And maybe a minute or two later he showed up, so do with that what you will. All in all, I would definitely go back for a special occasion. 4.5/5

Exceptional service starting right from the time we walked through the door and throughout our meal. Food was delicious and ambience was incredible. David, the manager, checked on our table to ensure we had everything we needed and our server was wonderful. It was our first time dining at Black Angus and it was an A++ experience! We will be back!
