    Petite King's Cake
    Alaleh P.

    We made a reservation for a weekend night to enjoy their Winterlicious menu and enjoyed our dinner in a calm and warm setting. The space feels elegant without being formal, and the bar offers a beautiful view of Lake Ontario that really adds to the experience. We started with cocktails before moving into our three‑course meal. Each dish arrived with perfect timing, giving us the chance to enjoy every course without feeling rushed. From the appetizer to the entrée and dessert, everything was well‑paced and thoughtfully presented.

    This restaurant is located in the St.Regis hotel. We visited for Winterlicious lunch on a weekday. The environment is very classy and elegant. However, I was glad I rescheduled to an earlier lunch time as the duck confit was already sold out by 12:30 pm. I saw multiple people at other tables were disappointed with the selections left. I was surprised that the cheeseburger was also sold out pretty early as well. That being said, the serviwas really friendly and accommodating. Food tasted good, with the duck confit being the highlight. We also tried the chocolate cake for dessert, the display was appealing but tasted nothing special.

    I have been wanting to try this place for so long and finally had the opportunity. I was a bit nervous because I've heard people on TikTok say it was overrated, but I completely disagree. It just goes to show why it is so important to try things for yourself. It's not that other people's opinions don't matter, but you can really miss out on great things if you don't form your own. Good or bad, you have to experience it firsthand. I loved the staff and how attentive they were. They really went out of their way to make sure our visit was enjoyable. I really enjoyed the drinks and thought the tartare de boeuf was excellent. It was my first time trying it and it won't be my last because it was so flavorful. I also had the cowboy steak which was excellent with a side of lobster mashed potatoes. The lobster was so buttery and delicious, and the King's Cake was everything. I actually enjoyed it more than my friends did, which just proves that everyone has different tastes. All in all, we had an amazing dinner and made great memories. The gorgeous atmosphere was the cherry on top. It was so elegant on the inside and everything was beautiful. I will definitely be back!

    Had a little bit of trouble finding this place that was short walk from King station, and then up the hotel elevator. All the dishes were really well made and the place was very beautiful, and the staff were attentive ! It got quite busy in the restaurant as the night went on which surprised us as it was almost empty when we got there. We got bread, beef wellington, salmon, and scallops! We had brought a cake because it was our anniversary, but was notified that there is a cake cutting fee so we decided against it when it was time for dessert. However, they still stored it in the fridge for us, and brought it out for us to take photos with , which was really thoughtful! Definitely worth a try, however I would love to see them have some more bells and whistles at this price point. Dont get me wrong though, all the food was prepared great!

    This was supposed to be the highlight of the trip and it was one of many. There were a lot of aspects to this place that I'll try to hit on. Service: Nothing short of amazing. We were treated like VIPs from the moment we walked in until we walked out. Super friendly and helpful. Incredible. Food: Exceptional - we had a 5 course tasting menu that included enough vegetarian/fish options that were good for my wife. I had the beef tenderloin and my wife had the sole Meunier - we were both blown away to the point that my wife asked for more a Sauce because it was so good. Ambience: This was the clincher. The dining room is out of a movie with a bar wall that will blow your mind. Absolute luxury meets fine dining meets chill house vibes. 100% awesome. All that said, it was an expensive night..... really expensive but I looked at it as a once in a lifetime treat for us on Valentine's Day. Was it pricey? Sure. Was it worth it? You bet. If you want to treat yourself and your partner to the night of your life, this is the place.

    If you're in downtown Toronto and looking for a bar with stunning views and a truly high-class vibe, this is the place. Luxurious, stylish, and always a treat. The cocktails are excellent, and believe it or not--the cakes here are kind of famous. I come by once in a while with friends for a casual drink, and everyone I've brought has loved it. Of course, since it's inside the St. Regis Hotel, the service is top-notch. It can get busy, so sometimes a reservation helps, but usually it's not too hard to get a table. The food is solid across the board, and their Sunday brunch is absolutely worth checking out. Overall, this spot delivers on luxury without being pretentious. Highly recommend if you want to impress a date, enjoy a night out with friends, or just soak in a gorgeous Toronto view.

    Petit King Cake

    Louix Louis, known for their unique thirteen layer chocolate cake, did not disappoint at all! We went there to celebrate a birthday and ordered the Petit King's Cake which is their most popular dessert. Thirteen layers of delicious chocolate served with a side of vanilla ice cream and the way it was presented and cut, I was in awe of the service! We went there after dinner so we were too full to eat or order anything else but I guess I'll be back for their drinks coz they had a massive bar with an impressive wine collection as well.

    Made a late night visit to celebrate a birthday. Ordered the King's Cake and a couple of Americanos. The coffee was rich and delicious. The cake was over the top with its 13 layers and really delicious. The combination of the cake and the ice cream, that it is served with it, was really delicious. The cake itself was the best chocolate cake I have had - not too dense, not too sweet and just the right amount of richness. Had enough left over to enjoy for a few days to come.

    Petite king's cake 6/10

    I've been here a couple of times both for regular menu in the winter and summer time drinks. This time, went on the first day of Winterlicious around 5:30 pm and it was already quite busy. You go to 31st floor, the space itself is beautiful, definitely a vibes and Instagram pics place aka girls night. The bar area in particular is great for photos, though I'd recommend going on a weekday closer to 5 pm if you want it less crowded. There were corporate people on Friday, as well as girl groups and double dates. Dinner for winterlicious was $75 pp. For apps we had the squash velouté which is a soup, and the foie gras was rich (almost too rich by the end, but still enjoyable). For mains, the duck confit was good, while the braised short ribs were just okay and not as flavourful as expected. Desserts were on the sweeter side, the petite king's cake and LOUIX LOUIS cheesecake cake were both quite sweet, and we didn't end up finishing them. Service was quick and accommodating despite how busy it was. Overall, this is a great spot for the ambiance and city views, and it would work especially well for larger birthday dinners or group celebrations, they have an upstairs private space that can be reserved. If going, I recommend their regular menu rather than the Winterlicious offerings.

    I was looking for a spot to hang out after dinner and continue catching up with a friend who was visiting from out of town, so we decided to head to Louix Louis for some drinks. Located on the 31st floor of the St. Regis Hotel, it is a fantastic spot for a drink if you're looking to splurge a little and enjoy a refined atmosphere. Louix Louis has an extensive drink menu, from beers, well-crafted cocktails, to fine wine, they are able to cater to a wide range of tastes. I was particularly impressed by the selection of mocktails available for those who aren't consuming alcohol. I tried a cocktail and mocktail, and enjoyed both. The high ceilings and dark wood furnishings with gold accents give the space a warm, cozy, yet sophisticated vibe. Finally, the service here was impeccable. From the moment we walked in, the staff treated us like royalty adding to the elevated experience.

    Another lovely evening at Louix Louis! TY to the staff and entire team! It was surprisingly quiet during TIFF but allowed for more conversation.

    The service was impeccable! We booked dinner for our anniversary and my husband requested vegan gluten free items for me. Chef Luigi curated a wonderful menu with options for me and hubby ordered off the regular menu. He had oysters and steak. I had a beautifully dressed pear and walnut salad with a tempeh and vegetable entree. For dessert they made a fantastic vegan, gluten free brownie with sorbet and berries. I was totally stuffed! Hubby had a mocktail and we finished with tea and coffee. The servers (Salim and his partners) and the manager were kind and attentive. The rooftop patio is lovely and the view from our table was the lake peeking through various towers. The ambiance was nice and the bar/decor was classy.

    Let's be honest that cake just looks great, but doesn't taste that great! I'm speaking of the chocolate cake that everybody goes for! The King cake slice. It's huge, so you definitely want to share it with some people. Honestly, I've had much better cakes and I'm not even a cake person. I only like chocolate cake specifically. 5/10 The service was very cold and not very welcoming. The service fell flat.

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.
