Black+Blue in Toronto

A fantastic choice for a place to celebrate something special and indulge in a premium Toronto dining experience that will feel memorable. The entire dining event seemed to be carefully curated, not just for us but the elevated standard of service throughout the whole restaurant was apparent and made every choice feel polished. The wine list is beyond impressive, so luckily their two in-house Sommeliers have a helpful guiding word if needed. If anything that I would be hard pressed to do differently, I would only say to skip the cocktails and double down on a more indulgent wine. Next time well pick the sushi over the seafood tower, but the tomahawk Id happily order every time. Vegetarian options: Not the best choice as a seafood and steak restaurant for vegetarians

Food and overall experience was excellent. And Dawn was soooo lovely! Will definitely be returning asap.

Kal was amazing. He was attentive and gave wonderful recommendations. We enjoyed our drinks, the meal and the entire dining experience. We will definitely be back. Highly recommend

Kal was a great server. Made sure we had everything we needed. Explained the dishes and had some great recommendations.

If you want a perfect steak, then Black + Blue is your place! The ambiance of the restaurant was an experience in itself. A huge shoutout to servers/bartenders (Carla, Trevor, and Jean Paul) who provided exceptional service! I was there for my firm holiday party, and Black + Blue made it a memorable event for all of us. There was gruyère brioche with whipped butter for the table, I had jumbo cocktail shrimp to start, and as my main, the 10oz premium sirloin steak with parmesan fries with truffle aioli. I also had an espresso martini to add some flair. Let me just say, the steak was absolutely declicious! I had mine medium rare, and it was flavourful, juicy, and tender!

I must say this was my first time visiting Black + Blue as I had been out of the country and had it on my to go list. I had an exceptional dining experience. The ambiance was fantastic, and the food was outstanding. I had the Steak Tartare and Wagyu Sushi roll and my girlfriend had the Lobster Bisque and Lobster Gnocchi. The staff, especially Manager Raj and our server Jay, were incredibly attentive and made the evening memorable despite a small issue. It was handled immediately and professionally. I Highly recommend and will definitely be back for steak and others on the menu!

Thank you to Suzy! She was awesome! Everything was perfect and she is so kind! We had a fabulous experience!

Kal was wonderful! Kid-friendliness: Very accommodating Food : 5/5 |

The food was okay, i expected much more from a fancy restaurant. The service is good though especially the manager jessie, he is very friendly and accommodating.

Vig was exceptional Dietary restrictions: Vegetarian and allergies accessibilitu Food : 5/5 |

Great food and great service from Vig!

Susie!! Was the best definitely would recommend this restaurant and I would also recommend Susie to be your host.

Kal was absolutely amazing! Great server! Parking: Easy to park Food : 5/5 |

Kal was phenomenal, best dining experience in Toronto

Kal showed us an amazing experience. Traveled all the way from Long Island NY and I d have to say this was the greatest restaurant experience I have ever had! Would do it again soon hopefully!

First time in the area and this spot was very lovely. Wonderful environment and delicious food. Our waiter Kal really made the experience and his efforts were noticed.

Jesse, melody and John where amazing. Thank you all for such a lovely experience. I am glad I ordered the caviar. It impressed all my guests for tonight Food : 5/5

Ultimately you get what you pay for. The food and service (from Tyler) were excellent. If you can afford it, it s worth the visit. One star off on atmosphere because I found it a bit loud for a higher end restaurant.

Service was fantastic Vig was our server.

We had a holiday gathering here and they were amazing! The service start to finish was impeccable. The staff were helpful and well informed. The food and beverage service was delicious and everything we asked for. Highly recommend.

Megan was an excellent host and the best waitress we ve had hands down. Our first time coming here, we decided to try it out because we saw the Michelin stars at the location in BC. It was excellent we loved it so much and it made our anniversary so special.

Thanks to our waiter Vig

Had a wonderful night out with a good friend for a belated birthday celebration. We enjoyed a great meal and desserts with amazing customer service. Our server was very friendly and attentive to our every need and was an absolute pleasure. I would definitely recommend dining at this restaurant for any occasion

The service and atmosphere were excellent, and the welcome cocktail was a lovely touch it was both delicious and memorable. However, I found the food to be underwhelming. I ordered the calamari and a Caesar salad. While the calamari was flavorful, it lacked the crispiness I expected. The biggest disappointment was the Caesar salad. At a steakhouse, especially considering the price, I anticipate a well-executed Caesar, but this one fell short. The dressing was watered down to the point of being almost tasteless, and the lettuce was overly wet, which really impacted the overall experience.

Birthday dinner for my hubby Amazing dinner Amazing service .Love the ambiance .highly recommend!!!!

Amazing experience! Vig our server was so attentive and helpful in recommending some delicious dishes and drinks. Would recommend for anyone s night out!

What a great dinner! Vig was so attentive and helpful, he suggested amazing drinks and food recommendations. Checked up on us multiple times and was just brilliant over all.

Kal was amazing and one of the best parts of our experience at your amazing restaurant! Thanks so much!

Best steak in Toronto, service with Candy was even better. Dont question which steakhouse in Toronto, just come here

Black+Blue offers an exceptional dining experience, and it truly deserves every bit of its stellar reputation. The ambiance is elegant, the food is absolutely divine, and the attention to detail is unmatched. A special shoutout to Candy for her outstanding service! She went above and beyond to ensure our evening was perfect attentive, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. Candys warm demeanor and professionalism added a personal touch that made our visit truly memorable. If youre looking for a restaurant that combines top-notch cuisine with impeccable service, Black+Blue is the place to be. Well definitely be back!

Phenomenal experience with Candy!

It is the best restaurant I have ever been to the waiters are so nice the food is cooked perfectly I would recommend going there

Fantastic dinner! We ve been here a number of times and it never disappoints. The service is top notch, Kal took care of us this evening and did an outstanding job. Highly recommend.

Vig provided great service he was knowledgeable and gave excellent recommendations. It was a pleasure having him as our host. Must try the butter cream cake

I recently visited Black and Blue for the first time, admittedly with some skepticism about the service. However, my concerns quickly disappeared, all thanks to an extraordinary team member named Jaylin. From the moment she greeted us, Jaylin went above and beyond to ensure our dining experience was exceptional. She was attentive, kind, and incredibly thoughtful. Little did she know, my partner and I were celebrating a special occasion my partner s birthday. Despite not being aware at first, Jaylin s natural warmth and professionalism made us feel celebrated. Once she found out, she doubled down on making the evening unforgettable, seamlessly adding thoughtful touches that elevated the entire experience. The food was excellent, but it was Jaylin s dedication to creating a memorable evening that truly stood out. Her attention to detail, genuine care, and vibrant energy left a lasting impression on us. Thank you, Jaylin, for turning what could have been just another dinner into a heartfelt memory. You are a shining example of exceptional service. Because of you, my first visit to Black and Blue will certainly not be my last. Highly recommend!

UPDATING TO DROP FROM 2 STARS TO 1: The manager replied to this review initially and publicly addressed the situation, but made no effort to contact me after I emailed him directly and also the resaturants email. I can only assume saving face online was his goal and not addressing that I almost swallowed his grill brush fiber. ORIGINAL REVIEW This place has a lot going for it, but given how much it costs to dine here, my expectations were pretty high. 4 of us dined last night, and while Black + Blue has an outstanding selection, I left disappointed. First off, our server was tremendous. All of the front of house staff were pleasant and friendly, but Alison treated us like gold. The food was overall delicious, however, while eating my steak, I chomped down on a wire bristle from their grill brush. The steak was taken away, and who I can only assume was the manager offered me a complimentary side dish as I guess an appology. We already had 5 sides to share between 4 people, so we declined. When the second steak arrived, it was undercooked. By the end of our experience, Alison dropped off complimentary desserts to share, which again was a nice gesture, but we were all full, so it was not the most empethetic offer. Overall, I was surprised that no one other than our server seemed concerned. Also, I ended up paying full price for my steak, which to me seemed unreasonable. Finally, the washrooms were in pretty bad shape. One didnt flush properly, another was clogged and filthy, and another the soap container was also broken and leaking on the counter. I dont think during our visit anyone checked on their status at all. Again, lots going for them, but for the dollar value, there are lots of other comparable options in the area that really take care of all of the details.

We sat at the bar today, and Bruna gave us the best service for our happy hour visit! She was so friendly I had to shout her out! We will be back soon! Thanks, Bruna!

Wife and I celebrated our anniversary on a Friday night. The food was amazing including the appetizers (didn t expect smoked beets to taste as good as they did) and the steaks were definitely in top 3 that I ve ever had. The service was pretty decent as well and on par with what I would expect from a restaurant in this price range. Only reason I m giving it a 4 star and not 5 - and this may totally be on me - is that I was left a little underwhelmed with the overall experience considering it was an anniversary dinner. I get that the restaurant is really popular and busy on Friday nights (had 0 control on my end on the day of the week our anniversary fell). But with reservations 2 weeks in advance and informing them about the anniversary, and having dinner at 8:30 PM - being seated in a corner right next to the entrance with food carts being parked right beside me from time to time wasn t quite the special dinner I had pictured. I digress though - may not be the best pick for a special night but definitely a solid restaurant overall.

Amazing service by Suzy. The food and atmosphere was lovely, but the service was the highlight. She was incredibly personable and genuine, and was on top of our every need.

vig was so funny and an amazing server!!

Vig was amazing! Very professional. The food and service was amazing

Food is great! Service was exceptional especially from Candy, who took the time to explain every thing and was extremely patient. Highly recommend!

Celebrated a birthday and from start to finish we had a great experience. Our server Ms. Suzy was fantastic. She was highly knowledgeable and also made great recommendations. Mr. Singh was also great to chat with as well. Would highly recommend and would for sure come back. Parking: Paid underground parking

Beautiful place. Food was okay. I was quite upset when asked to substitute the fries with a house salad and then the bill came it was a $10 up charge. The waitress didn t say anything about an up charge and if there was, most restaurants would be a couple of bucks. I found this to be deceitful. Furthermore, the risotto was on the cool side and the bun for the burger was old. Waitress didn t come by to see how our food was. Disappointing outing.

Very elegant and upscale venue.

Celebrated our anniversary here and the food was exceptional, but Kal, our server made the night 100 times more special. We will definitely be back for future celebrations! (and will request Kal specifically).

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Black & Blue Steakhouse, and Kal s service truly made the experience unforgettable. From the moment we were seated, Kal greeted us with a warm and welcoming demeanor, setting the perfect tone for the evening. Kal s attentiveness was remarkable he managed to balance professionalism with genuine friendliness, ensuring we felt cared for throughout the meal. His menu knowledge was impressive, and his recommendations were absolutely on point, elevating our dining experience. What stood out most was Kal s ability to manage every table effortlessly, ensuring every guest felt valued. His attention to detail, timing, and positive energy are qualities that are hard to find and truly appreciated. Kal is an asset to Black & Blue Steakhouse, and I look forward to returning not only for the amazing food but for the outstanding service he provides. Highly recommend asking for Kal you ll be in excellent hands!

1 word Trevor! Best dining experience ever!

Great experience, kal was very knowledgeable. Made the experience great.

Kal was a

Dawn made our visit an amazing experience. Making sure we knew everything about the food and drinks we ordered. A very happy person that eminates that energy towards the people she serves. Next time we visit , we hope to see her again!

Amazing experience. Kal was an very attentive waiter and made the experience seemless. Definitely will be back

This was our first time at this venue. Wonderful atmosphere with amazing staff especially the owner (she knows how to make anyone feel at home).

Service and food were great! Dawn was our server and was incredible, great attention to detail, very hospitable. Highly recommend

Dawn was our server, the best ever! She paid so much attention to detail, asked if I was left or right handed to make sure she put my cutlery down correctly, warmed up my mug to ensure my tea stayed hot, and the food was amazing!!!! Highly recommend

Some of the best food I have ever had. Service was amazing. Kal was great

EVERYTHING about this dining experience was beyond excellent. From the ambiance, service and food, it was all delivered above exceptional. Vig was our waiter, and he even exchanged the colour of our napkins as to not get lint on our dark clothes! He was very gracious and informative, and knew what we needed, before we even thought of it ourselves. The food was magnificent, I will definitely be back for their 45 minute lunch special!

Stopped for happy hour. Great and service was exceptional. Thanks Kal.

Very nice place! Vig is amazing and the food too!

Kal was fantastic. Best service and experience by far!

Kal was a fantastic server!

Great dining experience with Dawn as our server. Friendly and funny and professional from the moment we arrived. I m looking forward to enjoying my left overs as it was delicious. It wasn t just dinner but a dining experience.

Everything was delicuous. Steak was tasty. Sushi was soft and flavourful. You must try the zeppole. Food : 5/5

Great service from Dawn!

We had our office Christmas lunch at Black and Blue. It was another outstanding meal with superb service. Kal, our server, was spectacular and deserves special mention taking of details making the event happily memorable!

I ve been here 2 times now, each for happy hour. The last time I went Vig gave us such good service! We needed to be out within 30 minutes, and he promptly suggested to us what foods would be able to come out quickly from the kitchen. He then gave us great service from getting our drinks quickly and our food, and then our bill. He was very attentive and the food was all delicious.

Beautiful atmosphere and pretty good food but expensive. They charged $72 for still water! Got the steak and fries and it was good! Juicy and fries were crispy!

Was there for an office lunch on the heated patio however both lamps near our table were out of propane and we were cold. An hour later we got some heat. Canapés were tasteless and came out late and we had no small plates to put them on. We were also waiting on drinks for a long time. No one came to see if the tea drinkers wanted more hot water. Coffees were tepid. Appetizers were middle of the road in taste. Main was undercooked (steak and salmon). To make up for the bad service, they gave us some cakes which were even worse. I know it s a new restaurant and maybe a smaller dining experience could have been different but they re not ready for big group lunches. Would I go back? Probably not since there are better steak houses in the area. I hope they get it together.

Industry function. Great food and service.

We were served by Dawn, she was excellent explaining all of our options

Kal was a gem - he provided exceptional service and made us feel so welcome. When we return, we ll be asking for Kal, 100%

The food is *chefs kiss* wonderful. Get the tableside Cesar salad. Just do it. Youll be happy you did. Also get the Chateaubriand because it literally melts in your mouth (and is actually a better cut of meat than the NY steak they have, IMO), The panna cotta with sorbet was light and lovely, but nothing to write home about. The cheesecake was excellent...not nearly as heavy as it looks. The service is exquisite. Allison was top notch, as was her team of commis. The wines are specular. Full stop. They lose big points for their TERRIBLE music though. I dont need Will Farrell and Chris Kattan doing their Night at the Roxbury thing ALL night. A nice jazz piano would suit the climate they are going for MUCH better. I realize that things get tested and vetted for the biggest demographic, but they lost out with us on the music. But other than that, it was stellar.

Guiness not in a Guiness glass. 3 stars Service was great. Tyler was a top lad. 5 stars Service : 5/5

Outstanding in all respect. There are quite a few higher end steakhouses in town, but Black+Blue is definitely one of the best ones. Paying more but getting average happens more times than I care to be reminded of, but not in this place. You do get what you pay for here. Ill be back very soon.

Had company Xmas dinner with customized menu. My first impression was that the restaurant was too crowded and tables were very tight with each other. A lot of servers and customers were walking around your table and you have to make space for them. For the food part, it was just ok. I am comparing with other similar price range restaurants. I had the Canadian prime striploin 10oz. Seasoning was nice but the meat was lack of flavor. Dessert mousse cake wasn t impressed. Too sweet and texture was rough. Mousse cake should be smoother. Crab cakes and Brioche were good though. All servers were great and friendly. Parking was easy.

Dawn was amazing! Really our dining experience one that we will never forget. So informative and knowledgeable about the menu and cuts of meat! Amazing!

Food was amazing, atmosphere was warm and inviting. Our waitress Suzy, was very professional and attentive. Would definitely recommend if you re looking for a fancier night out!

Dawn was great! We really enjoyed our dinner here and will definitely be back

My 1st time here and I must say I will be back. We started at a table close to aswinging door, we asked to be moved as the crisp air was coming in. Jesse gave us the option and assisted in the move. Our table team were excellent Suzy & Joanna. I hope I get this team again on my return.

thank you Kal for the service!

We arrived here for the first time with high expectations, however, it was a disappointing experience as it took more than an hour for our meal to arrive. The service was poor as none of the servers checked up on us or offer anything to make up for the time we had to wait.

Currently here right now and no one is attending to us. We are expecting to get our starters since we ordered but still an hour past its still not here. We have high expectations but it looks like we ending up hungry. Should we leave now?

Cal was an amazing server! Made our special night even more special.

Kal and the team at Black + Blue went above and beyond to help us celebrate our special night. Thank you!!

We had a great experience. The food was delicious, especially the Beef tartar, Beef carpaccio and Rib eye steak, and beautifully presented. Our server Kal was attentive and friendly, making the meal even better. Highly recommend.

We came here to celebrate our anniversary and Dawn provided excellent service. She was attentive and friendly throughout the evening. The vibe of the restaurant was gorgeous and the food was great. Definitely recommend!

We went on a Saturday night. Our server was named Kal and he was just amazing. Made the best table side ceaser salad I ve ever had. He was funny and very knowledgeable. The meat presentation was perfect and his suggestions were spot on. Highly recommend going here for a meal at least once and hopefully you ll get Kal.

We are no strangers to steakhouses in the city and abroad but this meal has been truly special. The steak tartar was one of the best I ve had, the steaks were cooked perfectly and the risotto was so flavourful. We finished our meal with the butter cake (A MUST TRY), and the kids menu and meals were prepared with care and adult sized portion. This was all made even more special by our server Kal. He was honest, kind, funny and his service was top notch. We will definetly be back!

Carla was very good. She has a great sense of humor and has good customer service exp.

Carla was our server and was outstanding! It was my husband and my wedding anniversary. She was kind, knowledgeable, real and attentive from start to finish. I would love to have her as our server next time for sure! Thank you Carla for making our night perfect!

Karl was amazing knowledgeable!

Amazing dinner. Food was incredible service even better. Kal was an incredible server

Alison was our server and it was my 21st birthday and first time at Black + Blue. I had a fantastic experience and the food was to die for. Atmosphere was inviting, warm and all around comfortable and classy. Alison was super knowledgeable on the different cuts of Beef and was very easy and welcoming to talk and chat alongside. Wonderful staff and beautiful restaurant. Will be going again for their happy hour and brunch soon.

An excellent place to hang out with family and friends, offering delicious foods, great service from Ms. Dawn and a wonderful atmosphere. Strongly recommend it. Food

We went for my husbands birthday on a Sunday night. I was pleasantly surprised - the food and atmosphere were top-notch. Our server Dawn was very helpful and friendly and really added to our experience.

Went to celebrate a birthday and was an incredible experience from start to finish. Our server Armando was engaging and went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable evening. Looking forward to our next visit.

Disappointment. I asked for a specific dessert to be sent to our table as a surprise for a birthday via e-mail and never received a response. No complimentary dessert either for the birthday boy. $300 I should have spent elsewhere. Big fan of the Vancouver location and I gave this one a shot as it reminds me home. Never going back to Black + Blue. Will stick to Cactus Club instead.

Casual dinner with friend before to watch the comedy show. The server Kyle is amazing. He is very detail-oriented and funny. The salad and butter cake are super good. The mushroom risotto is a bit salty. Portion is good. Will definitely come by again.

Everyone we came into contact with was friendly, personable and enthusiastic about their role and what they have to offer at the restaurant. A magical and delightful experience! Our server, Vig, was knowledgeable and generous with his insights and joy for his job.

Amazing service!

The steak was expertly and perfectly prepared. The service was excellent. Probably the best oysters Ive ever had while not seaside. Loved the atmosphere but it was a bit noisy, so we had to really speak up to have a conversation.

I came for happy hour. The food portions and quality exceeded my expectations. I was very happy about that. The drink prices are fair. I had great service from Ben and the entire support team. Very friendly and warm. I will be coming back again with my friends.

VIG was great, super attentive and kept a good convo going

Our server Dawn was fantastic, incredibly attentive and knowledgeable!!

Kal is an amazing Server! From the moment we entered the establishment he took good care of us. Provided us amazing recommendations and great personality! It was my partners birthday and he surprised us with a cute cake aswell!

Good but pricey

2nd time here, great experience both times. Our most recent server Vig was very friendly and service was fantastic. Will come again soon!

Couldn t ask for any better servant Parking: Excellent Food : 5/5 |

Our server Allison made it a great dining experience. Her dessert recommendation hit the spot.

Our party had a fantastic dining experience at Black and Blue Restaurant, and a big part of that was due to our exceptional server Vig. From the moment we were seated, he made us feel welcome with a warm and friendly greeting. Throughout the meal, he was attentive without being intrusive, checking in just the right amount to ensure our needs were met. Vig was knowledgeable about the menu, offering insightful recommendations for both food and wine pairings. He was able to explain the specials in detail and answered all of our questions with enthusiasm and professionalism. The pacing of the meal was perfect never rushed, yet we never had to wait long for anything. The service was efficient, and he handled a special dietary request seamlessly. Vig paid genuine attention to detail and upbeat attitude added to the overall enjoyable atmosphere of the restaurant. If youre lucky enough to have Vig as your server, your dining experience will definitely be elevated. Highly recommend!

I m sorry to leave this review online; I truly wish I could ve spoken to someone directly, but I tried calling multiple times and couldn t get through. The venue itself was fantastic, and we were looking forward to a great meal. We ordered an extravagant lunch, and I chose the burger, expecting something exceptional. Unfortunately, it was very disappointing. The burger was served on a stale bun with two overcooked patties that resembled hockey pucks. It was, unfortunately, the worst burger I ve ever had. I was starving, so I managed to eat half of it. When the waiter came by, I gave my feedback, and she graciously offered to bring me something else. By that point, I wasn t hungry, so I declined. She did bring out a small dessert for the table as a kind gesture, but it didn t really make up for the experience. It s really unfortunate because I host many business lunches, and this has made me hesitant to bring clients back. I hope the kitchen takes this feedback seriously because the venue has so much potential.

Our sever Kal was amazing, so funny and so attentive and even made a great dessert recommendation! We would gladly come back!

Kal was great!!!

Kal was a very attentive server

My girlfriend took my here on my 26th birthday, and as a man let me tell you I wouldn t settle for anything less. the food was excuisite. The service was spectacular Kal literally knew what to eat no matter what appetite you had. And the dynamic of the place was incredible.

The ambiance was phenomenal. Kal gave us excellent service. Food was also delicious. I highly recommend this place!

Beautiful atmosphere, but the food was not good, at all! Ordered a lobster roll, the bread was cold with unseasoned lobster. It tasted as if the lobster was taken from the sea, put directly into water, boiled and chopped up and slapped on cold bread. We waited for such a long time to receive.. anything. Didn t get any water for the table and was told by our server that it took a long time because they were switching shifts so the other server could go home, however he (other server) was there working the entire time we were at the restaurant. My younger son ordered a lemonade, which was not a lemonade, but a jalapeño drink, (he s a teenager, you d think you as a server would explain that it s not a regular lemonade because that is what he asked for). He also ordered the nachos, which are not nachos they re potatoes chips like Lays potato chips (weird dish) he hardly ate it. My older son ordered fried rice which was soft and mushy and more like a stemmed rice not fried. My daughter ordered a salmon, which she tasted and refused to eat, no seasoning. I order steak bites, which were potato bites because that s what was there.. potatoes with raw beef on top. . Omg. Overall we ended up eating ceaser salad and mashed potatoes. Those were good! So . If you are doing a drink night, and then heading somewhere else I would recommend for a cute date night for drinks, but fine dining? I don t think so, not in my opinion anyway. Not a good experience at all, wouldn t go back there. Too many other restaurants to try out. This one was 4/10. Harbour Sixty is still my favourite!!!!

Crab cake is so damn delicious probably the best I have ever had. Food is fresh and solid good! Recommend for all foodies!

Kal was a fantastic server who elevated an already great dining experience with his humour, courteousness and timeliness. Dietary restrictions: As someone with severe anaphylactic allergies to lots of foods Kal was very considerate and cognizant of my dietary restrictions.

Joanna was our server and she was so sweet and attentive! Our food was great. We both ordered the salmon. It was also my birthday and they brought out a special cake for me! Overall, a great experience. Definitely recommend if you are staying in Toronto!

Alison was amazing!

Kid-friendliness: It was amazing. Food

Dawn was great!

Kal made our experience at b&B that much better, super cool guy, great service and great vibes. All the best my friend.

Kal, our server, provided us with exceptional service, elevating dinner out into a truly extraordinary experience.

Our sever kyle was very attentive and very nice and caring.

We had a great time celebrating our anniversary. The food was nice but the service was just phenomenal. Our server, Dawn, was very sweet and answered all our questions. I m sure we ll be back again very soon.

Trevor was very attentive and kind! Made sure any food modification that was requested was met. Amazing atmosphere we ll definitely be coming back and will request Trevor again!

Amazing experience. Try the Wagyu rice :). Ask for Dawn

This dinner was amazing! Hands down, best meal we ve had in Toronto. The beef wellington was top tier. We had the BEST server, Dawn. She made our experience so wonderful. She is so knowledgeable. Great dinner!

Dawn was an amazing server 5

Quality of the meat was no code we ordered the cowboy prime rib and no good

Dawn was amazing

We received such good and welcoming service from Dawn, the atmosphere of the restaurant is good.

Dawn was wonderful! She is an amazing server, very friendly. The food was spectacular as well.

Amazing. Just amazing

BEST STEAK EVER!! I ve never tasted a steak like the one I had at black & blue ever before!! Let s not talk about the service with Jessica, omg she knew her job like she s literally the school teacher of steaks she was very informal always checking on us & the Ambience just topped everything off..! LOVED IT! everything about it. 10/10

Vig, a wonderful guy, our Cossack.

Candy was wonderful. She made the meal, great personality and service.

Kal provided sublime service !! Many thanks !!

Amazing courteous service by Vig! Such a joyous person who made our birthday celebration a breeze.

Vig was very warm and knowledgeable, absolutely amazing service!

Came for my birthday and our waiter, Vig, was so attentive and kind. The ambiance is classy and the food was delicious. Will definitely come back!

Ill begin by saying that with just 1 visit, Black+Blue already ranks in my top 5 steakhouses - in Canada. Exceptional service from Anna, knowledgeable Henry providing great guidance on wine selection and amazing food overall with the steak being the clear star (Id hate to come in to eat anything excluding steak in an established like Black+Blue)...Oh and the cocktail with bourbon, the name of which evades my mind was superb (second from bottom on page 2 of the liquor menu). Now to the food with due respect given to the steak(s). We went with a six ounce Japanese Kobe tenderloin cooked rare along with an Australian Wagyu tomahawk (probably 50 ounces including bone), cooked to chefs recommendation, Atlantic lobster (half), with sides of crispy Brussels sprouts and sauteed wild mushrooms (with truffle and Madeira vinegar). The Kobe was melt in your mouth, as expected (dont spoil the beauty by adding sauce - this needs to be enjoyed as is, or with a dash of Maldon salt). The Australian Wagyu tomahawk was sliced tableside and was very good too, but, the tongue was treated to the Kobe and it preferred the Japanese to the Australian beef! Lobster was fresh and complimented the steaks. We went with a Carmenere that was full bodied and paired really well with the steaks (or would have taken an Amarone). The mushrooms in particular, with the acidity from the Madeira vinegar, just amplified the enjoyable steak. Dessert was a Basque cheese cake and the signature Black+Blue butter cake - both of which were very good, but, we struggled to clear these as the steaks, excluding the 5-6 slices in a takeout box, still filled us up! Anna went through all the cuts of steak and during the dinner, was present throughout, without disturbing us. Overall, nothing short of a 5 star rating, for the service, for the steaks and the overall experience. A definite try for connoisseurs of a good steak.

Great Prix Fixe Lunch with Karl as our Waiter!

The first time I went, it was great. Albeit, that was at 5pm when the restaurant was pretty empty and it was newly opened. Today, I was extremely disappointed with the quality. The steak we ordered was medium rare and it came borderline blue in the center. It was extremely fatty ($179) with a large amount of it being bone. The center was raw and the perimeter was too well done. Not good at all. The mac and cheese bites were good, as well as the bread and caesar salad. Other than that, the steak was below average to what Ive eaten at other restaurants.

We were attended by Jessica, she was very friendly and our experience was excellent thanks to her. Delicious food

I went here at the beginning of the month for my girlfriends birthday. Our server, Trevor made the experience very special with exceptional service. All of the staff we encountered were friendly and welcoming. We had the seafood tower as our entree - everything was so fresh and the presentation was great. They even brought out the dessert I ve attached to make this day extra special.

Had an amazing brunch here on Saturday! Service and food were great, and found the Banoffee Pancakes to also taste as indulgently as it looked! Only downside is it was so much i could barely finish half of it (protip - find a brunch buddy to share). Highly recommend it and this place if on the lookout for a brunch spot for the weekend! (Pancake Score: 9.5/10)

Amazing.

Come here for brunch, afternoon tea, and lunch. It s a very comfortable dining environment. The service staff is professional and enthusiastic. The food tastes great. It s worth coming back to try other meals.

My favourite restaurant! Beautiful place, amazing staff- Vig took amazing care of us, very personable, attentive and nice :))

Terrible experience overall, didn t receive any bread upon arriving, mains took over 40 mins to be served. Ordered a medium rare steak and the meat comes out extremely chewy, no tenderness or flavour to it. Was extremely upset especially it being my anniversary night. Would not recommend.

Vig was such an excellent and thoughtful server! He overheard I was celebrating my wedding and brought the most delicious Bundt cake dessert with macarons!! To die for. Was such a lovely lunch. I ordered the Cesar salad with a steak. Steak was excellent!

Great service and food is fantastic would definitely recommend this restaurant 5 star.

Had a great meal in Toronto while visiting with family. Megan was terrific and made some great recommendations.

The Food was amazing, the presentation was beautiful, and our server candy was friendly and fantastic all night.

Great Service and Experience from Kal!

Great spot! Food was great, our server Dawn was awesome. Highly recommend!

Black + Blue restaurant, situated in Torontos financial district, is a premier steakhouse that skillfully blends Japanese cuisine. Originally the old stock exchange site, the venue has been transformed into a modern and chic space. The restaurant boasts an impressive menu variety, catering to diverse clientele. Every Monday, a carefully crafted three-course menu is presented, beginning with a tableside warm mushroom salad, followed by an exquisitely prepared Wellington, and finishing with dessert. In contrast, Sundays feature an indulgent Prime Rib Dinner, complete with Caesar salad, 12oz slow-roasted Prime Rib, Yorkshire pudding, and B+Bs Signature Butter Cake. To accommodate the local business community, the Express Lunch 45 Menu offers a swift yet satisfying dining experience from Monday to Friday. During our visit, we sampled the sushi and sashimi options, including the exceptional yellowtail sashimi and king salmon roll. The Express Lunch 45 Menu proved reasonably priced with a diverse selection, featuring beef carpaccio, smash burger, crispy calamari, and bento. The bento will be perfect with some minor adjustments. Surprisingly, complimentary samples of beef tartare and signature butter cake were provided. They were both sumptuously appetizing. The sushi and sashimi were remarkably fresh, particularly the yellowtail sashimi. Weekly fresh delivery of huge tuna from Japan to fulfill the popular demands of fresh Japanese delicacies. Our server, Kyle, demonstrated exceptional professionalism and attentiveness, presenting an informative overview of the steak selection. Manager Abhishek Sharma kindly offered a private tour of the elegantly designed restaurant, showcasing its refined interior design elements. Overall, our dining experience was exceptional, and we look forward to returning for a steak dinner.

Alison was amazing. She made our special night even more wonderful with her service.

Visiting Toronto as part of a 10th anniversary plus, T Swift concert. Dinner was amazing. My wife and I are from NYC, the Beef Wellington was probably one of the best steaks Ive ever had. Dawn was are server, she was great. Very attentive and knowledgeable. Besides the Wellington we order a table side Caesar Salad. Dawn did great preparing all our food.

Eunice was absolutely amazing, she made great recommendations for drinks and food. The chocolate mousse and suzette crepes were delicious. She made this experience so much more memorable for me. Faz was also incredibly courteous and their service was top notch. Can t wait to come back again.

Dawn was great!

The food was outstanding, and the service was the best Ive had in a very long time. It was a great experience. Alison was truly incredible!

Me and my bf had our anniversary dinner here and experience was amazing. Service was great and food was also good. Would definitely recommend for special occasions.

Located in Torontos Financial District, this is the second location in Canada. I came here for a special dinner event and had an amazing experience. The ambiance, food, and service were all great! They have a beautifully decorated semi-open space for warmer days, and also makes a great spot for hosting smaller private events. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible, and there are plenty of paid parking garages in the area. ***UPDATE*** I recently returned to this restaurant to try their Happy Hour menu, and once again, I was thoroughly impressed. From the moment we walked in, the staff were incredibly welcoming and courteous. Our server, Vig, stood out as exceptional he was friendly, attentive, and went above and beyond to ensure we had a great experience. One of my companions has a gluten intolerance, and Vig was very thoughtful in accommodating her dietary needs. He brought gluten-free soy sauce for the sushi and even offered to substitute the bread in the mini Yorkshire with lettuce so she could enjoy it. As for the food, all the steak dishes we tried were flavorful and well-prepared. I especially loved the Steak Tartare Bites. The maki rolls were decent, but I wouldn t specifically recommend coming here for sushi if thats your main focus. Overall, a great spot for Happy Hour with excellent service! Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options available Parking: Plenty of paid parking garages in the area

Wheelchair accessibility: Great access Food

Kal provided amazing service! The food was so great! We couldn t have asked for a better experience.

Had the pleasure of meeting Kal and having him as our server. He went above and beyond in describing each dish as well as making recommendations that did not disappoint. He made our dining experience a very special one as it was our 9 year anniversary. Every dish was better than the one before and we hada great time. Thank you for everything

Was good all around. Had the new york strip as the main, it was as good as any Ive had. Great service as well. Thank you.

Brunch was awesome!

I had an amazing experience at BB. Dawn, our waitress, was exceptional, providing impeccable service throughout our visit. The overall experience was fantastic, and I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great food and outstanding service Food

Armando was incredible!

Alison made us feel right at home with our experience at Black & Blue. We truly had a phenomenal experience, the perfect restaurant for my birthday dinner on our vacation to Toronto from the U.S.!

Amazing private dinner experience. Highly recommend!

Great ambience, our server Kal was amazingly attentive, and offered great menu recommendations. The absolute best calamari Ive ever had! Food

Amazing lunch experience at B+B today with the girls. Kal was our server and he was exceptional. With the blend of 5 accents, extensive knowledge of the menu offerings plus taking our personal tastes into consideration, he gave us a phenomenal experience today. Even though we came here expecting brunch, he turned our disappointed brunch pallets into stuffed steak happy guests. We will be back! :) Parking: Parking was a headache but worth it in the end. I do drive a lifted jeep so that was a major factor.

Our lovely server Kal was amazing and well knowledgeable in the product selection . He was able to provide us alternative to our dining options and had great customer service skills . Would definitely request to be in his section . Highly recommend the crispy calamari, chef kiss . Parking: Parked at the building across the street

Everything is good KAL give me best service

We recently hosted an event at Black+Blue, and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The food was fantastic - every dish was well prepared and received rave reviews from our guests. The venue itself was perfect for our needs, offering a stylish and comfortable setting that really enhanced the overall atmosphere of our event. A special shoutout to Aaron, who was incredibly great to work with. He was not only professional and attentive but also very flexible and accommodating to my specific needs and vision for the event. Aarons dedication and willingness to go the extra mile truly made a significant difference in the success of our event. Thank you, Black+Blue, for helping us create such a memorable experience. We look forward to hosting future events with you!

Kal was a great server! Service was the best part of the whole night. Thank you!

I highly recommend the Wellington Monday Menu, it is great for the first-time experience and the server Kal served us perfectly!

Kal provided exceptional service! The dinner was delicious, and he even checked in afterward to make sure everything was perfect. Highly recommend!

Our server Deyan was incredible. He was a delight. He made us feel at home and his service was superb. Thank you! Dietary restrictions: Very accommodating!

Amazing experience! Amazing food! Our server Suzy was incredible!! Highly recommend!!

Great food , great place, great service. Thanks Vig

Vig is the sweetest and most kind server I have ever had. We loved the tenderloin for 2! Best carrots ever!

My family says their steak was good. Those that didn t choose steak were disappointed. Bathrooms are very disappointing for an upscale place. Vegetarian options: Not really to my liking.

James was our server when we visited. He was so knowledgeable of the menu, giving us ideas of how big portion sizes are and how the doneness of the steak will be like for our specific choice. We appreciated his input. I must say, he was definitely on point. We hope to come back for more!

Excellent

Dawn is a queen!!!

The only thing better than the steak was the service. Dawn was energetic, attentive and personable! I wish I lived in Toronto so I could visit more often.

Kal was our server and we really appreciated that. He knew the menu well and had great recommendations.

Candy was our server, everything was excellent. Thank you for the nice evening. Food

Candy was our server and she was amazing! Her attention, speed of service and thoughtfulness made our night even more special. Thank you!
