Hi UA, lifelong Torontonian here. Best Michelin-worthy steakhouse in Toronto is easily Butcher Chef (located in the downtown area). Try it. Be amazed. They have more than just steaks (and it's all delicious). If you aren't impressed, I'll pay! 🙂

how does it compare to Jacob's? I haven't had a chance to visit that one due to a busy schedule. In the past couple weeks, I went to Octagon, Jacob's, Black and Blue, Blue Blood and Barberians. Jacob's is still the best.

The food came out fast because when the server asked if you wanted the salad with the steak or as an appetizer, you said whatever is faster. To which the server inferred you must be in a rush. Anticipating guest’s needs is a common trait amongst high end restaurants.

I love that you went to Jacobs and went for a local steak, AND of course you did your research and heard about the Caesar! For non-anchovy lovers, you can always ask for the sauce/salad WITHOUT anchovies. The duck fat french fries are DIVINE here! I know it sounds interesting but the honestly are super tasty!!! The local beef in Ontario is amazing and honestly criminally underrated, and I'm so glad you took the chance to show off Ontario beef. I found that the dry-aged Ontario steaks were similar in comparison to your review and generally found that the wagyu from here was my favourite.....

I live in Toronto. There is a steakhouse chain called The Keg. Most people expect it to be a mid grade restaurant, however one of the locations is called the Keg Mansion. It is literally in a renovated mansion. The steak was amazing. The service is excellent. It is common for the manager to come to the table and ask if everything is okay. The prices are of much better value than other steakhouses. I recommend this specific location, at the Mansion, on Jarvis.

The Keg is a solid 7/8 out of 10. Better than you would expect but definitely not in the top steak houses in Toronto in terms of value. On a side note you don't go to Jacobs for value either you go there for the best steak without considering price. Personally the Keg and Jacobs are both places that I tend to avoid because I like restaurants that focus on giving you better quality food for the money.

Hi UA. Thank you for your amazing feedback and great opinions and appetite. My father and I have had great success using your reviews and opinion to navigate New York steakhouses. We are both from Toronto and we are fans of your channel and find your reviews very helpful and you have every right to talk about your dislike of them not salting your steak. You also have the right to eat however you want to eat and enjoy the food however you wish. It’s your channel and you’ve done well my friend. You should review Blueblood steakhouse at Castle Loma my father and I think this place is better than both Jacob’s and Barbarians. Better prices and better options and you would be satisfied with the selections of regions and farms. Next time you review a Toronto steakhouse, you definitely need to go to Bluebloods

Great steak and seafood but no butter tarts on their menu :)

I live in Ontario in the middle of farm county in Haldimand County. The beef from the village butcher comes straight from the surrounding farms and the flavors are amazing. We have a smoker, anova cooker and barbecue, so we buy local and prepare it ourselves. Honestly I don't think any steakhouse in Toronto or New York can do better than my husband on the smoker. His brisket is undescribable. High end restaurant quality for a fraction of the price.

It's livelier, with a large bar and lots of different seating and tvs to watch sports. A solid scotch selection, too. Reservations highly recommended Thurs-Sat, especially on hockey nights! I haven't been to Moishes new location at Square Victoria, but atmosphere was kinda stuffy when it was on The Main. Although I suppose people who pay more prefer that. They serve good steak there and at Gibby's, but nothing special for that kind of money.

Jacobs is the best steakhouse in Toronto. It is almost criminal to go and not get a wagyu, we usually at least get a 4 Oz to share it's so good. Scalloped potatoes are the best if you ever go back. The butter is money for sure; you can have the base of the dressing be made with avocado as well but it's not my favourite Caesar either way it really sticks with you and is very garlicky. Good review well done.

Lacking in seasoning is because they gave you the option to experience seasoning it the way you would like it to be seasoned and you never did until about the 4th or so bite. It is unfortunate that it took you a while to realize that they left it up to you to season as you prefer...seemed pretty obvious to some of us when they brought the seasonings. Some like the chef to season and then complain that the chef over seasoned or under seasoned 🤷‍♂

Those look like white anchovies, which aren't fermented. As far as popovers go, there were the ones served at different restaurants at the Cliff House in San Francisco. The restaurant is gone, and there were a lot of disagreements between the restaurant owner and the National Park Service (which owned the property). I remember getting the popovers at the table for breakfast. I think they still sell the popover mix at retail.

I grew up in SF and ate at the Cliff House many times. Those popovers were very good. Sad that it’s closed. I liked the omelettes on the top floor back in the 80’s.

@@patrickfreeman205 I guess it's complicated. The restaurant business is tough. They were on a series of one year contracts and were supposedly offered another year when they decided not to renew during heavy COVID-19 when they were closed. But then again I'm not sure what to think of them claiming to own the "Cliff House" name when they were just an operator with a contract. I can't find where they're still selling the popover or bloody May mix, so they might not be protecting the trademarks. If the NPS wanted to play hardball, I would think they could extract the trademarks similar to what happened with Delaware North and Yosemite.

Couple things while I’m watching, Wagyu in Japanese literally means “Japanese cow” (和牛)。 Hyogo is the prefecture Kobe (city) is in, so it could be Kobe beef (but could be somewhere else). Pure Japanese Waggu cows can only be bred in Japan (think there’s some law one rule preventing them for being completely imported to another country).

Prices at 2:46. The prices are high, especially the alcohol menu. I have a friend whose son has finished his business degree and was working on Bay Street. He went with friends to Jacobs & Co. for dinner. They were making good money in their jobs. So on a splurge they ordered one of everything on the menu. The bill came to just over $9000. That price would be even higher today since this dinner took place nearly 10 years ago.

Great video ❤ You should check out Ruth Chris Steakhouse in Niagrafalls Ontario right by Fallsview casino. Fiance and I got hotel that came with a $200 voucher decided to go for dinner thinking most the bill would be covered. Still ened up paying almost another $200 was the fanciest most expensive place Ive ever eaten and in my opinion it was pretty good but dont have another great steak to compare it to other then mine marinated in Worstershire sauce massaged with oil and salt for 24hrs mine will always be better. Lets say was broke the rest of the trip 😂 aleast my tummy was full.

I will want to check that place out, love all the options they provided you with-the difficulty lies in diserning how to get the most out of your food experience when you had so many options available to you- If you got a hys steakloft near you maybe check that out first before going to a chain steak house as suggeste by one of the comments below.

Do you cook your own steak. If you do, how do you like to cook it. Charcoal, wood, propane😢?

I think the anchovies and the garlic butter overpowered your tastebuds prior to the steak. A nice Cabernet Sauvignon between courses would have cleansed your palate 🙂

Hi UA, who states this is the best rated steakhouse in Canada? Even in the list you mention in this video #20 Elisa is rated higher and in Canada. Unfortunate you didn't get more funk from the dry aging in neither of your Canadian steakhouse experiences. I can also add Don Julio which is rated #1 is good but it sure isn't #1 in the world. I do enjoy your videos and keep up the great reviews!

You should consider ordering your steaks "Chicago style". Any reasonable steak house will know what this means. Essentially it means you want the outside of your steak extra seared/charred but still get to specify how you want the inside. So for example, you Chicago style medium rare. The secondary benefit is that it will allow you to distinguish a good steak chef from a mediocre one.
