Restaurants near Holiday Inn Toronto Bloor Yorkville

We have been to Joey’s many times in Vancouver and other Joey locations in Toronto but Joey King West is definitely a step up. Fabulous ambiance and decor and they offer unique items not available on the regular Joey menu. Great service, very knowledgeable about the menu and attentive but not rushed. The spicy crab dip was a nice sharable appetizer. My only criticism was the wine. I selected a BOTTLE of Italian super Tuscan from the wine list. When it came out in a carafe I asked the server if I could see the bottle. She told me that it was “on tap”. Really?????? Have never experienced this before anywhere. And not surprisingly, it was sub par.

Overall the atmosphere was great and the food delicious. I liked the pear salad and the shorth ribs were testy. Unfortunately the desert choice was disappointing, Christmas pudding or apple crumble were cheap options for the menu price and the restaurant standards.

The atmosphere was wonderful, like a winter wonderland with cozy igloos, blankets, cushions, and outside there were trees, firewood, and a cozy fire. It felt like I was far away from being in the middle of Toronto! The food was delicious, flavorful and creative. The service was just lovely, attentive and just right! The igloo had 2 heaters in it so the temperature was comfortable. It was a memorable experience. I will certainly go again!

Delicious breakfast and great drinks. Wonderful service by all.
