    Tower Club
    Steve C.

    I had a lunch at Teller's Bar and Lounge. When I looked at the Yelp reviews, I didn't realized it was in the lobby of a hotel (One King West Hotel), which to me took away from the atmosphere. I tried a few of the dishes: The Kale Caesar salad was good but had too much shredded parm. My favorite was the Avocado Shrimp Toast. I also tried The Tower Club and is was good - it came with sweet potato fries. It was a very hot afternoon in late July and I appreciated the cold seltzer water. The bar tender was friendly and efficient.

    Nice whiskey to relax
    Steve S.

    Well... it was a night to relax unwind and just enjoy the vibe at the hotel's bar/lounge... felt a little underdressed but they still welcomed me in and I grabbed a seat at the bar. The bar keep was fast friendly and made me feel really welcomed. Chattted a little , people watched a little and loved the old school lounge vibe. Great service and can't complain about the drink that's straight up served up proper.

    Truffle pizza
    Cin C.

    Located in the lobby of the One King building, Teller's acts as both the hotel's bar and restaurant. We were there luckily on a Thursday night and they had a live jazz band performing from 530-830, which was an unexpected delight. We started with drinks and apps by the bar and transitioned to one of their restaurant tables. The calamari and Korean chicken tacos were both really great. The calamari was tender and easy to eat, a far departure from the rubber bands one can get at the wrong place. The tacos were a generous size, with a great crunchy texture. If you come during their happy hour, the food is only 9.99! Very affordable. When our friends arrived we moved over to one of the high top tables thoughtfully reserved away from the band so we could actually chat. I had the truffle pizza and it was great. Only critique was that it took an hour to get our table of 8 all our mains, otherwise it would be 5 stars.

    Tower club with sweet fries
    Grace M.

    We are staying at the hotel and decided to stop by here for a drink and some food. This is in the lobby level of One King West hotel and during Christmas, it is decorated!! We were able to grab a table anywhere. There's a bar with seating and a few high tops close to the bar. We sat at a table and it was very intimate. They have an excellent drinks menu and I got a 1908 sour (which is a gin drink with egg white). It is beautifully presented in a glass with an orchid and so yummy! We also got the tower club since we wanted to try peameal bacon while we are visiting. The sandwich surprised me. The warm grilled sandwich and the nice bacon along with fresh crunchy lettuce and tomato was a fabulous combination. The sweet potato fries were crispy and so sweet, probably one of the best I've had. For dessert, we got the espresso crème brûlée. The espresso was subtle and the crème brûlée was so creamy. The crispy top was a perfect pairing for each bite. The service was attentive. We had a lovely time here. I would definitely stop by for a drink or a snack again.

    Gnocchi

    My family and I came here for dinner after attending a wedding dress rehearsal at One King West. We were seated upstairs in the lounge area which is a little more private. Service was friendly however it took foreverrrr for the food to arrive. We were seated just before 7pm and ordered some appetizers, mains, and desserts and we didn't get out til almost 10pm. The wait time between each meal was so spread apart I was starving and getting low key hangryyy. For drinks, they didn't have a mocktail menu but the server was nice and asked what kind of drink I wanted (sweet/fruity/sour/bittter/etc) and I said fruity while my aunt wanted something sour. I love when they create whatever drink and surprise me. For appetizers we shared: -oxtail ($19) - oh so tender, fall of the bone type of meat, flavourful and spicy...it was a chef's kiss -calamari ($17) - tender and crispy -octopus ($19) - really enjoyed this as well! For mains, I got the steak frites and upgraded my fries to truffle fries ($39). The fries were yummy and steak was cooked to perfection but there were a lot of tendons and it was SO chewy I could barely eat it?? I also tried some of the truffle gnocchi ($25) and it was so yummy. For desserts, I got the corn creme brûlée ($14) which was interesting. I enjoyed it. I also tried a bit of the cheesecake ($12) that my aunt ordered but it was too sweet for me. When dinner was finally over, I went downstairs to the vault to take some photos so that was pretty cool.

    Charcuterie board
    Claire J.

    My mom and I came here for dinner. We had "Falling for Juliet" holiday cocktails which were lovely. Next we had the squash soup to start and it was incredibly flavourful and warm tasting. We then shared the charcuterie board which had a great variety of cheeses and meats with 4 pieces of bread. Everything on the board was delicious. Service was good too. Highly recommend coming here, the hotel was a great stay too.

    Smoked old fashioned
    Neil S.

    Often at One King West for work meetings and more times than not, we end up at Tellers. Friendly service. Best old fashioned in Toronto. Their appetizers are OK. Great place to people-watch as the city's up-and-coming influencers come and go. Nice mix of modern and old world charm. Prices aren't cheap but not ridiculous. Great place to meet people of to meet up for an after work cocktail or beer.

    $40 charcuterie and two glasses of wine!
    Nish T.

    Well here I am walking down Yonge St., getting chilly by the falling snow in April and decide enough is enough and jump into 1 King West to warm up! I notice the lobby bar and with my friend we decide to pull up a couple of stools and see if they have a happy hour deal. Sure enough, $40 bucks gets you two glasses of wine and a charcuterie board. With a couple of baco noirs in hand we sample the prosciutto, salami, and cured beef along with two cheeses, and the sweet condiments of honey and jams. The wine was pretty good given that it was their house feature. The cheeses well balanced with a strong blue cheese and a brie variety. The accompanying toast was really good. The venue itself is pretty cool, given that the lobby used to be a bank, hence the name. There is quite a bit of hustle and bustle with the adjacent hotel reception area, but hey it's rush hour in the Tdot. After this quick pit stop, I head back out to the cold! Tellers is an old school style bar, not my usual go to type of venue but nonetheless it wasn't bad!

We ended up sitting at the bar since we were walk-ins. It is also a very low light restaurant, especially at night. so it might not be the best place for older adults or those who are visually impaired. Service was good, however, we were somewhat forgotten at times since we were tucked away in a dark corner. We ended up ordering the Truffle Fries, the Spicy Rigatoni Vodka pasta, the Korean Chicken, and the Vodka Pie. The truffle fries were crisp and plentiful. We added sausage to the Spicy Rigatoni Vodka pasta, and it was delicious paired with the pizza. The Korean Chicken were bite sized and flavourful as well. However, The vodka Pie haunts me in my dreams. I think I crave this pizza about every week. The pizza at King Taps has one of the best crusts I've ever had, and the vodka sauce is to die for. It's sad to know that this pizza will rotate out, I'd definitely try it before it leaves! I will be back for the Vodka Pie, mark my words!

The place SEEMED quiet but shortly thereafter the place got JAMMED! Initially it was slow service but it picked up shortly. We had several different servers so no single server is tagged here. I will say that it's a hip, nicely equipped restaurant. We decided to do an appie meal. We ordered Sichuan Chicken lettuce wraps ($25.50)..this was the best of the appies. The next was the Crab Dip ($20.75), it was hot but not overly tasty. 3rd was the Hot Chicken Bites with pickles ($16.00). They were ok but not hot in temp enough. The final was the Chili Citrus Calamari ($21.25). This was the worse of the dishes. Simply put, it was cold. The server removed this from our bill. In summary...I wouldn't go out of my way again to go here but given all things being equal, the servers were very good. As a final note...the bathroom was very clean & well maintained.

    For a very, very long time, I'd been reading about how Library Bar is one of the best cocktail bars…read morein the city. So it goes without saying that my expectations were extremely high for the place. We arrived just before our reservation time and were quickly shown to a comfy table near the entrance. It was a good spot for taking in the admittedly impressive ambiance. Obviously we both had to order the Birdbath Martini ("Quill Gin, House Vermouth Blend, House Orange Bitters, Lemon Oil, Olives and Pickled Onions"). And yeah, it's incredible. The tableside preparation was certainly an impressive sight, and the taste of the drink was superb. Definitely one of the best martinis in the city. For my main, I went with the Bay Street ("shaved prime rib, tobacco onion, horseradish aioli, grilled baguette, frites") and after an unusually long wait, the plate arrived to the table. I can't say I was super impressed. The meat is tender and flavorful, yes, but the bread is so plentiful and so crusty that it pretty much negated the sandwich's positive attributes. I ultimately wound up leaving most of the bread and eating the scant prime rib. The fries were quite tasty, at least. Far more problematic was the service. Our waiter was absent for much of our meal. Our water glasses were empty for most of our time in the restaurant, and he never showed up to ask us if we wanted another drink, which we certainly did. We each probably would've ordered a couple more cocktails had the guy not vanished. So yeah, the martini was indeed excellent. Everything else? Not so much.

    I've been wanting to try LOUIX LOUIS for the longest time, so when the opportunity came up to visit…read moreduring Summerlicious, I knew I had to finally check it out. Located on the 31st floor of the St. Regis Hotel, the restaurant has an incredible atmosphere. The dining room is absolutely stunning with a classy and luxurious feel, but it still feels comfortable and inviting rather than too formal. We started the evening with cocktails before moving into the Summerlicious menu. I ordered the "I Only Drink When I Smoke," which was a great way to start the night. It had a subtle smoky flavour with a touch of sweetness, and the alcohol was not overpowering at all. It was smooth, easy to sip on, and the perfect drink to enjoy while having conversations. For my Summerlicious menu, I started with the Tartare de Boeuf and Caviar. The filet mignon tartare was fresh and really smooth, with a nice balance of rich and savoury flavours. The toasted bread also gave it a nice crunch and paired really well with the tartare. For the main course, I had the Roasted Chateaubriand Filet. When the plate was served, the meat looked really rare as I saw nothing but red on the meat, but it was incredibly tender, making it easy to cut through. It was full of flavour, and the sauce complemented the steak without being too heavy or salty. The vegetables added a nice balance to the dish, and the creamy mashed potatoes were smooth, and definitely one of my favourite parts of the meal. To finish, I had the Mango Passionfruit Cheesecake. It was creamy without feeling too heavy. Though the fruity flavours from the mango passionfruit were a bit tart and sweet for my palate, it still gave an overall refreshing touch. The crust added a nice texture, and it was the perfect ending to the meal. Beyond the food, what really stood out was the service and pacing of the evening. Each course arrived at the right time, allowing us to enjoy every dish without feeling rushed. The price point is definitely on the higher end, so it is not somewhere I would personally visit for a casual dinner on a regular basis. However, for a special occasion, celebration, or a night where you want to enjoy a beautiful dining experience, I think Louix Louis would be a great choice... and for $75/ person for Summerlicious/ Winterlicious, definitely a great value to sample the chefs' artistry. Overall, it was a memorable evening with an elegant atmosphere, thoughtfully prepared dishes, and great service. I can definitely understand why this spot has become such a popular destination, and I would love to come back again for Winterlicious!

Wagyu beef burger cooked perfectly, it's a large portion for a petite girl like me, 9oz, fries is on salty side. Both desserts are good, not too sweet or filling. It's definitely on the pricy end for a lunch, good to come here for celebrations, not an everyday thing.
