    Dal Makhni, Garlic Naan, Tandoori Meat Platter
    Alexa J.

    The dal and garlic naan was delicious here! Reminded me of the black dal at Dishoom in London. The meat platter on the other hand was just okay, nothing special. Ive also ordered the butter chicken which was pretty regular, not worth ordering again. I will say that the staff were not the friendliest, but otherwise I will definitely be ordering the dal and garlic naan again!

    Far side is garlic naan and Chicken Tikka Masala, closest is the Butter Chicken

    We came on a rainy Sunday night and were the only ones there! Service was great. My husband got the chicken tikka masala and I got the butter chicken. He asked for a modification to his and it was brought out correctly (no peppers). We also got a side of garlic naan. Everything was delicious. Restaurant had great ambience: modern, yet had lots of character. I thought prices were reasonable. We would come back here next time we're in Toronto. We love to get Indian food when we come to Canada .

    The food was immaculate. Met the head chef and was supper awesome person. His name is Vicky. Vicky, came and checked up on us. Made sure we satisfied with our food & his demeanor was top notch! As Indian food addict, it was the best food I had yet!

    This was a okay experience. The staff were very nice and helpful. The food was good but not really what I was expecting. It was good, but just lacking.... Heat. Not as spicy as I'm use to for Indian food. It's definitely a good place to try if you haven't had Indian cuisine before. It's bougie, fancy Indian food.

    Had a wonderful dinner at Bindia the other night with friends! Reservations were easy and made on Open Table. They have a cute patio along the front of the restaurant but since it was raining we had to sit indoors. I was surprised at how large the inside of the restaurant was. It was also very clean, physically distanced and all workers wore masks. For food we started with veggie pakoras and tandoori chicken and for the mains, 4 of us shared butter chicken, chicken tikka masala and chana masala (chickpea) with some rice and naan (garlic and butter). The dishes were slightly pricier than I'm used to but overall it was delicious. Service was also really great here. I would recommend checking them out if you're in the St. Lawrence Market area and craving for some Indian food!

    Tried Bindia for the first time with friends post COVID reopening. Restaurant was clean, felt safe with well distanced tables and serving staff were very polite, wore masks and attentive. Food was great! We tried the vegetable pakoras & Tandoori Chicken to start. Appetizer portions are small for the price, but very delicious in flavour and cooked well. For mains we had Butter Chicken, Chicken Tikka Masala and Channa Masala. The butter chicken was quite typical and good. Chicken Tikka masala was my favourite item with a thicker gravy and more traditionally cooked. Channa masala was surprisingly good too. For desserts we had Gulab Jamuns and Rasmalai, which everyone also enjoyed. For a downtown Indian restaurant in the area, I was pleasantly surprised and will return!

    I love Indian food and the flavors Bindia served did not disappoint. It just cost a lot. We ordered 2 chicken dishes & 2 vegetarian dishes. I think for the half the price, you can get the same at a different restaurant. I've been to many different Indian restaurants and this was the first time that the entrees didn't come with rice nor naan. You have to order that separately which adds to the total. But if you do decide to come, the staff is very nice and it's a lovely & clean restaurant.

Every aspect from the sauce to the baguette to the meat was so tasty. I also recommend getting the garlic aoli for the fries. The drinks were very well done and unique in flavor as well, in particular I tried to the midnight show which was like a raspberry espresso martini. It was fantastic. The ambiance of the place is spectacular as well with a cool, library naturally, vibe. The servers were also great and helped accommodate my date who is gluten free, and her baguette replacement was the best that she'd ever had of a gluten free option.

They decorate the lobby, bar area, and the whole main floor with Christmas decorations during the holiday season, including the giant Christmas tree in the lobby (complete with its own lighting ceremony and live music performance). Good selection of drinks and great customer service. Fun facts: The Royal York Hotel opened in 1929. It hosted royalty, heads of state, and golden-age Hollywood legends like Cary Grant and Alfred Hitchcock when they were in town filming or staying upstairs in the hotel. Stepping inside is like time-traveling back decades, with velvet seating, brass accents, and dark, moody lighting. As soon as you walk into the Library Bar, the real centerpiece that grabs your attention is the massive oil portrait above the fireplace. That dignified gentleman watching you sip your drink is George Locke, the very first chief librarian of the Toronto Public Library. I love that a librarian is the patron saint of this bar! The drinks here aren't just cocktails; they're chapters in a story. The current menu, titled "Ink & Alchemy," is actually inspired by Michael Ondaatje's famous novel In the Skin of a Lion. Created by their award-winning mixologist James Grant, the menu is a tribute to the people who built this city: the immigrants, bridge-builders, thieves, and dreamers. You aren't just sipping a martini; you're drinking a liquid homage to Toronto's history.

I would just skip the steak as there was nothing special, i mean it's not a steakhouse but i'm a little sad. The sides were good. and the pizza was good too.

Ambiance: Stunning from the moment you walk in. Despite the soaring ceilings and two-level layout, the space still feels intimate thanks to the dim, romantic lighting. We loved being seated beside each other rather than across from one another, an option I appreciated compared to the large half-moon booths in the centre of the room. Tables line the perimeter and upper level, while small trees with twinkling lights frame the booths, adding a whimsical, almost magical touch. A window displaying the cuts of steak was a fun and enticing detail. Appetizers & Mains: Every bite impressed. The seafood atop each piece of nigiri was incredibly fresh and buttery, literally melting in your mouth. The lobster mashed potatoes were an indulgent and unforgettable accompaniment to the perfectly tender steaks, which were thoughtfully presented tableside before cooking. Dessert: We saved room (and I'm so glad we did!) My cheesecake arrived beautifully plated with a candle and birthday message, while my boyfriend enjoyed the butter cake. Both were absolutely delicious and the perfect ending to the meal. Service: Every team member we encountered went above and beyond to make the evening feel special, but a heartfelt shout-out goes to our charming server, Vig.

He also shared enticing reasons to return for lunch, happy hour, and weekend brunch (options we had no idea the restaurant offered).

On a Valentine's Day brunch visit, the atmosphere alone was enough to justify the reservation. The kitchen demonstrates genuine competence: dishes arrive with care, the pacing is unhurried, and the mise en scène -- from tableside presentation to that now-famous thirteen-layer chocolate cake -- reveals an establishment that understands the theatre of fine dining. That towering slice of chocolate cake, in particular, is a masterstroke of marketing and pastry craft in equal measure; it draws the eye, earns its reputation, and very nearly steals the show. Where LOUIX LOUIS gives one pause is in the cuisine's ability to fully match its surroundings. The cooking is accomplished and reliably pleasant, yet seldom rises to the level of genuine distinction one might hope for at this price point. Dishes satisfy without surprising; technique is evident but inspiration, at moments, feels held in reserve. For the corporate traveller or the visitor seeking a polished, geographically convenient showcase of the city's skyline, this represents an entirely sound choice. For those seeking an experience whose flavours linger as long as the view, the kitchen has room yet to grow into its magnificent stage. Service is attentive and well-intentioned, though it can occasionally want for the depth of knowledge that elevates a good meal into a memorable one. LOUIX LOUIS is, in sum, a very good restaurant striving -- not quite yet arriving -- at greatness. The bones are exceptional; one hopes the culinary vision will, in time, catch up with them.
