    Amazing Fruit Bowl!!

    Kost was such a great find! From the moment I walked in, Peter and Andreas (the managers) went above and beyond to make me feel welcome - genuinely warm, attentive service that you don't come across often anymore. Got the fruit bowl and honestly, it was amazing - so fresh and perfect if you're looking for a healthy option. The food overall was delish, and the views just added to the whole experience. 5 stars all around, will definitely be back!

    What an amazing venue, with a gorgeous view of the downtown Toronto skyline! Located on the 44th floor of the Bisha hotel, this restaurant has an amazing breakfast menu. Service was so friendly and everything was impeccable! Will be back again.

    Went there for a drink and ended up having a plate of beef taco to share. Considering the prime location and a view $25 for 4 pieces of taco seemed to be resonable. Braised short rib inside taco was tender and flavourful. Ordered the hot sauce and did not realize that there is a charge of $2. Also had 20oz of Stella Artois($14) and was surprised that they only had one kind of draft beer available. It was Friday night around 6pm, there were a plenty of tables still available for walk in.

    Was happy to see Kost was open for new year's day. It was our first time in Toronto and wanted a rooftop view, so we had a light dinner and was delighted by the entire experience. Beautiful hotel restaurant ambiance, and great service as well. Great spice to the rigatoni and the chicken was tender and well seasoned. If we are ever back in the warmer seasons, I would love stop by to see the outdoor views!

    This rooftop bar is the perfect spot if you're looking for a laid back experience with quality food, service, and a beautiful view of the water. If you're staying at the hotel as a guess be sure to bring your swimsuit to enjoy the pool. Overall this was a lovely dining experience. My friend and I walked in for brunch where I had the avocado Benedict and she enjoyed the tropical pancakes. Prices are a bit higher but it's worth it for the quality of food and views. They have a very large drink menu. I only photographed the first few pages. I would absolutely come back if I lived local to the city.

    4 stars just for the vibes! This rooftop spot is beautiful! Amazing layout and design with dinning area leading out to pool area with spectacular skyline view of Toronto! I can't say much about the food because I only had the Fried Calamari, which was good. However, this is a must visit when in Toronto and the staff was great as well.

    Margarita flight

    KOST is definitely one of the cutest rooftops in Toronto The vibe is luxury, from the infinity pool to the CN Tower views. The food was so good. The tacos were flavorful and the presentation was nice. What really stood out were the margarita flights in Patrón bottles It was such a fun idea and made the whole experience feel extra. The lime margarita was my favorite, super fresh and not too sweet. Watermelon and mango were on the sweeter side but still tasty. Everything about this place feels elevated, chic, and worth the visit

    Patio dining

    Beautiful views, great indoor and outdoor seating, and incredibly kind staff. I didn't feel rushed at all and this was a very relaxing and peaceful place for brunch! Not too loud, great natural lighting, seating both for dates and larger parties. Mostly meat & vegetarian options, some vegan options and fantastic serving sizes

    Been here a couple of times, and my last visit was by far the best. I was served by an amazing server named Will -- he took great care of my friend and me. It was her birthday, which I had noted in the reservation, and he actually remembered and wished her a happy birthday! (I've noted birthdays in other reservations before, and no one ever acknowledges it.) Food was 10/10. Atmosphere was 1000/10. Service was 10000/10.

    Beautiful location, such a good view of the CN tower, a bunch of people were taking pictures. Everything we got was delicious, nothing out of this world but still good. Food and especially cocktails are very expensive but at the end of the day, you are paying for the view. Our server was wonderful and even brought out a free glass of Prosecco for my friend (as we were celebrating her birthday).

    Salmon Niçoise Salad
    Sel Z.

    Located on the 44th floor of Bisha Hotel in downtown Toronto, Kost has a lovely patio with a great view of the Toronto skyline and small pool. It's perfect for a rootfop brunch with a pool in the background. The food is excellent, and service is great and attentive. It tends to get very busy, especially during breakfast and brunch, so making a reservation online is highly recommended. The brunch menu contains several tropical-themed dishes (such as Tropical Coconut Pancakes with coconut whip cream and toasted shaved coconut, Kost Smoothie Bowl, Tropical Yogurt Parfait, and Tropical Fruit Bowl as a side). I love their tropical fruits selection: mango, pineapple, kiwi, coconut, lychees. I had the Salmon Niçoise Salad which consisted of grilled Atlantic salmon with green beans, cherry tomatoes, radishes, leafy greens, baby potatoes, black olives, and soft-boiled eggs. I asked for an extra side salad, and the portion was quite generous. It was a very satisfying brunch with great rooftop view to boot. Note that the washrooms are located one floor down (on the 43rd floor of the hotel), so keep that in mind as you'll need to take the stairs.

    Sad to see Kost rated so poorly. Visited a friend in Toronto and she recommended this place. I'm glad we went because it was amazing. Service here was the BEST service I received in my whole 5 day trip in toronto. She would come refill our waters, check on us, ask if we needed anything else. It was amazing. We got sat in the corner where you could see the CN Tower and it was AMAZING. Such a beautiful view of the city from our brunch spot. Lots of comfy chairs and places to sit. The food was also great. I got chicken and waffles and it had a spicy maple that was TO DIE FOR.

    Wild Mushrooms Toast
    Alaleh P.

    Located on the 44th floor of Basha Hotel, it offers a splendid view of the city and Lake Ontario. The rooftop is very beautiful during summertime. A nice place for celebrations, birthdays, etc. They offer weekend brunch, too. We came here for brunch on a Saturday and made reservations in advance. It has coat check during winter season and the staff are very nice and helpful. I liked the vibe, vibrant and quiet. We ordered "Coconut Pancake", "Egg Benedict Avocado", "Avocado Toast" and "Wild Mushrooms Toast" and all of them were fresh and tasty.

    This was my second visit to this bistro, and as always, the food was enjoyable overall…read more This time, I opted for the $40 daily special, which consisted of: A salad as a starter (Excellent) For my main course, I had marinated salmon tartare with rice and other garnishes, which I thoroughly enjoyed except for the avocado, which I left on the side of my plate because, in my opinion, it had an unpleasant aftertaste. The atmosphere was a bit too noisy for my taste, possibly because I hadn't made a reservation and was seated near the bar. The table the hostess assigned me hadn't been thoroughly cleaned, and I made sure to point it out. She apologized and roughly mopped up the spilled liquid. Furthermore, instead of offering me a seat at the table she had indicated, the same hostess practically forced me to sit at the table with my back to the entrance (which I hate). Once she left, I immediately changed seats. Despite these minor inconveniences from the hostess, my waitress exhibited a higher level of professionalism, though she unfortunately lacked enthusiasm. It seemed like she was in a hurry to finish her shift. I don't know if I'll ever go back to this place, as I'm eager to explore other restaurants in downtown Toronto.

It was extremely busy, with lots of servers and bus staff walking around, yet no one seemed to be taking care of our table. There were too many people involved, but no one was actually providing good service. We waited about 40 minutes for our food, and when it finally arrived, it was cold. I asked for it to be reheated. Five minutes later, the manager came over, apologized, and said the dish would be removed from our bill. After waiting another 10 minutes, the food came back at almost the same temperature. Overall, I was very disappointed with both the service and the food. Although this restaurant is popular and conveniently located near Yorkville, it didn't live up to the hype. The food felt more like fast food than a quality dining experience. There are plenty of other restaurants in the Yorkville area that offer much better food and service. I won't be returning, and I can't recommend this restaurant.

We ordered dinner and drinks, including a round of infinity shots, the shareable love potion, and D20 shots. And everything was delicious.

Overall, it's a wonderful spot for a special night out, just keep in mind that some dishes have bolder flavors.
