Perfect spot to go to for a dinner right before a concert. Located right in the heart of Union station (by York Concourse) and conveniently close to Scotiabank Arena and Rogers Centre. Chicken & Waffles: Sweet and savoury the perfect balance. The portions were quite good size that will leave you full. The chicken was quite juicy, crispy and had a bit of a spice kick. My friends also had a great experience with the fried chicken sandwiches and the poutine so maybe I'll try that the next time I visit. Highly recommend getting reservations in advance (especially for concert or game days) as it does get quite busy here. The prices were quite reasonable given the location and food quality. Overall, highly recommend this spot if you're looking for reasonably priced food and nearby main venues.

Short ribs

Chicken and incredible service make this the first stop on the line for Union Station. Dined here in the evening and enjoyed every minute of it because the delicious dishes were supported and lifted by the incredible customer service I've rarely seen in the last 5 years. All the staff should be commended and treasured because they showed they care and put so much effort into treating their guests with kindness and attentiveness. There was many times where different employees came to check up on the table, clear away empty dishes and ask how we liked the food. They were on top of everything the entire time. The food shines with its seasoned dishes and perfectly cooked chicken. The short ribs were delicious with a splash of lemon, bringing a bright, savoury taste. The buffalo chicken sandwich (with coleslaw) was absolutely amazing, perfectly breaded and cooked and wasn't overpowered by the buffalo and blue cheese. It balanced the flavours well and delighted the palette. The coleslaw side wasn't overly wet but tangy and paired well. The restaurant itself felt like stepping into a hip, vibrant eatery. You can't believe you're in union station. Definitely stop here before heading to the train platform. I know I will again and again.

Good but generic option in union station for grabbing a bit and brew on the go. Friendly and efficient staff.

1/4 Rotisserie white meat with fries and a side of coleslaw
Joani O.

This restaurant is in Union Station and only serves chicken...fried, rotisserie or in sandwiches or salads. (They also have chicken & waffles.) I ordered the rotisserie 1/4 white meat which came with fries, a Chipotle sauce for dipping and the natural juice from the chicken, although it didn't need it. Somehow the chicken was juicy not dry and also seasoned well. I ordered a side of the Cole slaw to try it but the fries were so good that I barely ate much of it and could have saved the $8. (There's only one size and the meals don't come with it.) It was an enjoyable meal and even their house made iced tea that comes in a mason jar was delicious. When in Toronto again I would definitely return.

It's my third time at this restaurant that features chicken dishes and each visit has been pleasant, with my most recent one topping the last. It saved the day when I was starving after a networking event with barely any food. I needed to eat something quick before hopping on the GO train and I try not to turn to fast food if I can help it. Service was fast and friendly.

One of my favourite sit down restaurants near Union station for work-related meals. It's delicious but also has a relaxed environment, and the menu can please most people. The price is also amazing for the quality and portion you get. If you have a Presto card, you can get a further 20% your bill which goes a long way. At my most recent visit, it came out to under $30 a person (including tax and tip) for a main and a beverage, in some peoples' instance. It is very hard to get that in Downtown Toronto nowadays! I've tried their fried chicken before, but I opted for their roasted chicken this time instead. The portion for the half chicken ($26) was massive and I definitely could have gotten away with the quarter! The taste was great and I appreciated the somewhat lighter meal. It looked like my coworkers enjoyed their fried chicken - the portions were so big that most of them had a takeout box full. The service was also great and we felt well taken care of during the busy lunch rush.

Stumbled into here while going around Union Station before attending a concert. Love the ambiance in here. Staff are very friendly. Girlfrd and I got the UC Classic Poutine , Cod Fish Tacos & 1lb Chicken Wings. The poutine was mouth watering good! Cod fish was battered perfectly. Chicken wings were very goood! For sure coming back again if I'm in the area.

Prices don't make sense. The plate be the sandwiches. The kitchen and service is a bit hectic. I can't say I really enjoyed my last visit here. Sat at that chef counter and they looked stressed. Not a good energy.

OG chicken sandwich
Bosco H.

I was initially pretty excited to see this new place come into Union as it would be a great option before going to a game in Scotiabank. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed. Ordered the OG Fried Chicken Sandwich (22). I informed them that I had a nut allergy and to check with the kitchen if it was good to order this. They got back to me that it was no issues and went ahead with preparing it. It got to the table and I was taking pictures and waiting for my girlfriends order to arrive before eating. Then the server comes back and takes it away saying that the sauce had nuts in it and that they need to remake my order without the sauce. Incredibly fortunate that I did not take a bite first but also extremely unprofessional as I had informed them prior to ordering. Definitely left a sour taste in my mouth and didn't really enjoy the sandwich when the new one came out. Not pleased and won't be eating here again. :(

Key Lime Pie. Not good.
Ting H.

Their Fried Chicken is fantastic (dark meat and thighs!) and their sides are good tasting and portion. Their Lobster Roll was also very good. Their Desserts are another story, continually disappointing. Key Lime Pie was not good. Crust wasn't very cooked and fell apart. The key lime part tasted cheap, not the good quality type of pie. Mochitini looked nothing like the photo on the website and was a lot smaller than pictured. Not enough coffee in it either. Service was friendly but hard to get a hold of for stuff and they didn't stop by to check in either.

Key lime pie and cinnamon donuts
Jessie L.

Stopped by for their summerlicious menu and had a great time. The staff were very attentive and the portion sizes were huge! Highly recommend the cinnamon donuts. They were very warm and freshly made. The key lime pie lacked the actually crust and was mainly filling. The fries were really great and on the crispier side. The chicken sandwich was very large and crunchy.

Was there on a game night for a pregame dinner. Jam packed at 6:30pm. Food arrived at my table quickly but it was impossible to get wait staff's attention to ask/ order more condiments after. They were all really busy. You get what you get and eat/drink. Had their fried chicken many times so this time I ordered rotisserie chicken. It was good but nothing spectacular or anything. However my partner ordered OG fried chicken plate with sweet heavenly buttery gravy. It was perfect. I ended up taking fried chicken from their plate. Next time nevermind healthier rotisserie chicken, I will stick to my fried chicken. Also ordered a side of brussels sprouts, it was served a little burnt all over. I understand to be "charred" to have nice caramelized flavour, but it was bitter & burnt. Next time I will order salad instead. If you want to watch sports in a loud restaurants and good fried chicken, go to Union Chicken.

Made a reservation on OpenTable and was seated right away. Great service! When we asked her for her opinion on certain menu items, she gave us an honest answer. Love that!! The food was great. We were stuffed! Chips and guacamole, wings, OG chicken sandwich, creamy coleslaw and corn bread. All were excellent. Wings were a little small, but that's the only complaint I can think of.

From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by a friendly hostess who later seated us at the bar. The atmosphere and overall ambiance of the restaurant were 1000% worth the trip!

We were told we would have to wait 5-10 minutes for the window seat we requested. After well over 20 minutes I went to get an update on the table, she ended up saying it was ready only to not get seated at a window table that we specifically asked and were willing to wait the 5-10 extra minutes for. So we waited that extra time just to not get the table we wanted. Not to mention the washroom was disgusting with diarrhea and vomit in the only open stall as the other one was out of service. The restaurant also doesn't really feel family-friendly. It's clearly geared toward couples and young adults, with more of a date night or night out atmosphere than a place you'd want to bring the family. Just something to keep in mind if you are wanting to bring your family.

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!

It's $50 business lunch comes with appetizer and lunch, there are a few choices and I chose the Salmon tartare with wagyu beef burger. Salmon tartare is really good, it is fresh and goes good with the sprout, the pastry biscuits are very flaky and a bit oily I found, it would be better to go with those long flatbread crackers in my pov. 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.
