Chop was created for people who love sharing, connecting and everything steak. We are proud to offer a menu that shares our commitment to sustainable beef sourcing, serving high-quality cuts of 100% Canadian beef. It isn’t just the meat that’s special – it’s also how we cook it. Our Montague broiler cooks at up to 1800 °F, giving a beautiful crust and flavour to every steak! We slow roast our prime rib in a humidity-controlled oven, keeping it mouth-watering and tender. And we put this level of care into each of our hand-crafted drinks, and from-scratch dishes, including plant-based and seafood options, with something for everyone to enjoy. All of this quality comes with friendly hospitality in warm and energetic rooms. Open for lunch, happy hour, dinner and late-night!

    Jim and I went for my Birthday. It was our first time dining there. We will definitely go again. The service and ambience were outstanding. We shared the mussels which were delicious. We had the duck confit and the scallops as mains. Truly both delicious and presentation was beautiful. Bravo Gezellig!

    Another wonderful experience at Fratelli in Westboro. We treated our out-of-town friends to dinner and they were very impressed. The service was friendly and attentive, the food delicious and the 50% off wine bottles a pleasant surprise. One of our guests with a gluten-free allergy was delighted with her pasta meal. Highly recommend Fratelli

    Parlour went above and beyond to make my birthday special, there was even a menu with my name on it. The food was delicious and they accommodated all our dietary restrictions including vegan options! There was a cold wind where we were sitting but when asked if it could be turned off, they did so right away! Thanks for a fun night.
