Everything was great, service was outstanding. Food was excellent
Great service and great food. We had a real feast and the table was large enough to hold all our plates, which was a nice change. Headed to the Canadian art gallery down the road afterwards #nicedaywithoutkids
I recently had the pleasure of dining at XXI Chophouse, and it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere that set the tone for the evening. The décor is stylish and elegant, creating a perfect setting for a special night out. Our server, Hugo, was absolutely amazing. He was attentive, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to ensure our dining experience was exceptional. Hugo’s recommendations were spot-on, and his genuine enthusiasm for the menu was infectious. The star of the evening was, of course, the steak. Cooked to perfection, each bite was tender and bursting with flavor. The sides were equally impressive, with the truffle mashed potatoes and roasted vegetables standing out as particular favorites. The attention to detail at XXI Chophouse is evident in every aspect, from the beautifully presented dishes to the impeccable service. It’s clear that this restaurant takes great pride in offering an exceptional dining experience. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or simply looking for an outstanding meal, XXI Chophouse is the place to go. And if you’re lucky enough to have Hugo as your server, you’re in for an even more extraordinary experience. Highly recommended!
XXI Chophouse has been on my radar for quite some time. Located inside The Doctor's House, if you're looking for an intimate evening with your partner, friends or family this is a place you should really consider. The staff are super friendly, knowledgeable and take pride in making their guests feel at home. The establishment is stunning, and the food is outstanding. Overall, it was a memorable experience.
Came Here for lunch for a Business Meeting a Couple Days ago. Food was Excellent and Service Was phenomenal and the atmosphere was fantastic. Love how their steaks are on display so you know what you’re getting. Make sure to order the Dynamite shrimp special and try their Wagyu Steak special!! To die For. Was a pleasure will be back
I cannot say enough positive things about our experience here. My husband booked this for our anniversary. We were greeted by the hostess with a "Happy Anniversary" and as soon as our server came, she wished us one as well, and asked how long we'd been married. Later into our meal, we each received a complimentary glass of Prosecco to toast with, and she recalled we'd been married for 6 years and congratulated us on it. Reading reviews on other sites, I'm not sure that some people have been there recently. I read one review complaining that there was no bread provided to start. We got some. It was fresh and delicious. I read other reviews about waitstaff being slow or not helpful. Our server was sensational. She was knowledgeable, friendly, consistently checking on us for refills, if we were ready for our next course, to clear plates etc. She even went so far as to clear our plates, and bring us new ones, between the 2 appetizers we had ordered. And then, before our steak came, she even wiped down our placemats to clear them of crumbs. Knowing it was our anniversary, they sat us at a table that permitted us complete privacy in the solarium half of the restaurant for the vast majority of our stay (until a larger party sat down roughly 30 minutes before we departed). It should be noted that we requested to take our time and ordered several courses, asked for each one individually, and also stayed for coffee/tea/dessert. We were there for over 2.5 hours. (Had we wanted to move our service along faster, we would have had complete privacy for our entire meal.) We ordered the bone marrow, my husband had 3 Oysters (I don't eat seafood, but if you do, don't skip these - the show is worth it), the prosciutto/burrata flatbread for starters. Having made the choice to have so many starters, we ordered 1 steak and 2 sides to split (the 16 oz NY strip, 21 layers truffle potato, and buffalo brussels). The server took it upon herself to request the steak be sliced, and served to us on a board, so we could easily share it. It was cooked to absolutely (medium rare) perfection and the sides were outstanding. Trust me, you want to order the 21 layer truffle potato! It was my favorite food of the entire night. We then shared the creme brulee, and it did not disappoint, while having espresso and tea. Everything we consumed, including beverages, was worth every penny. Yes, this is fine dining. Yes, it has a high price point. But, its not just that the quality makes it worth it - the portions are actually huge. I would highly recommend coming here for a special occasion. They will treat you with the utmost care. We will absolutely be returning. Thank you for a wonderful anniversary celebration!
Awesome 5 star meal and service! Yes it’s fine dining pricing but you get your money’s worth! Shoutout to Ray for his great suggestions and service ! All servers were amazing and the food was the best we have had in a while! Drinks are 5 star and they keep the drinks coming, you are not searching for your servers! Get a dozen oysters ! It’s worth the show! We had steak special for 2 and amazing Octopus.. their fresh veggies are great and their layered potato side is to die for! We found the crowd friendly and not snobbish as other reviews indicated…great night !
Very nice place with amazing food that definitely deserves 10 stars if I could give. Every plate that we ordered was perfect, it was just done right: cooked to the desired condition, decorated nicely and simply tasty. The was also good and in time, no errors very pleasant experience with the waiters and wait time for the food wasn't long. P.S. They have free parking for customers, so you can enter the gate and get the ticket to get out.
Food here is mid. For the price, you can find much better restaurants nearby. Service was good but the kitchen is extremely slow. Took 1 hour to get our mains. The best thing I had all night was the Lobster Sliders and Tuna Tartare. This is my third time here and it improved from the last, but nothing really stood out.
it was great, but little over priced...
Excellent experience
THE BEST IN TOWN
Our experience at XXI Chophouse, was okay. Our appetizers were very good, and service was quick and attentive. Drinks were very good.... very charismatic and tasty. Unfortunately things took a turn for the worse when the main courses came out. Our rib-eye steak was extremely small for its size, and undercooked. Staff took it away, and cooked it a bit more but we couldn t shake the toughness and odd taste. The lamb chops were very gamey, and not to mention very very large. We thought they might be goat chops The side dishes we ordered for our meal, are what pulled us through. The mashed potatoes were delicious, the fries were tasty and crispy. Unfortunately the asparagus didn t have much taste, they tasted as if they were flash boiled. For desert, the tiramisu was great. Overall, we really used to enjoy coming here, but since the shift in quality and taste, we would need some hard convincing to return for dinner.
Food and service were exceptional Hospitality however, should also allow for conversation with your party and that was difficult to do with the music being a little too loud. Playlist was enjoyable tho. We look forward to going back
Not sure why Im receiving the option to review chop house when I was in the Drs House for a wedding.
Delicious!
Love this place!
Although the steak was really delicious the overall experience was subpar at best. The overall ambiance of the restaurant was nice but the music was so loud that it was hard to hear the person sitting next to you let alone have a conversation in a group setting. As a party of 5 we were all sitting quite close to each other so this really shouldnt have been such a big issue as it was. As someone that frequently visits higher end restaurants this seemed like I was being punked. The front of house was very nice and so were some of the other waitstaff but our particular server was not very pleasant to deal with. He made us feel out of place and seemed annoyed with our table from the beginning of our service. We were asked if we would like flat or sparking water and had requested flat. When we asked for a drink menu, we were told there wasnt one but the bar could make us cocktails if wed like. At no point in the conversation was it mentioned that water was charged by the bottle, which would have been fine had we been informed. Restaurants in Canada that charge for water will announce as such when serving which was quite odd that the waiter didnt feel the need to mention this. A new bottle of water would be opened before we were even done drinking the first and by the end of the night our table was charged for 5 bottles of water amounting to $45 when 2 of us didnt even drink water and all of our cups were full when we were leaving. When I had made the initial booking I was informed that bills would not be separated for parties of 6 or more however once at the restaurant the waiter told us they didnt do seperate bills but we could use different methods of payment after we had all calculated how much we wanted to pay. The misinformation not only made the whole process uncomfortable but it would have been easier and quicker with split bills. During the time of the reservation I was informed that a mandatory 20% gratuity is charged for parties of 6 or more. Our party of 5 was still charged 20% gratuity which came to over $120 for subpar service, and ridiculously long wait times for food. If anyone were to ask my recommendation on XXI I would advise them to go to Blue Blood or Jacobs and Co. instead. Both restaurants are more luxurious with better service and although their menu items are more expensive, the bill would amount to roughly the same considering XXI is charging you for what they see fit whereas the other two restaurants charge for their service, meal and overall experience. Unfortunately the quality of the food could not makeup for the overall experience. Dietary restrictions: Halal Parking: They have their own parking lot and validate parking. It can be a little difficult to see at first but once you turn into the restaurant there is a large parking area with lots of space.
Was recommended this restaurant by a close friend and was not disappointed. We came to celebrate our 10 year anniversary. Our waiter Ray was amazing attentive to detail and very informative. The restaurant is beautiful and perfect for a date night or any special occasion. Food was cooked perfectly. For the pricing you get a large portions more than enough to share with others. The cocktail and wine menu is extensive and there is something for everyone. Will definitely be returning!
We went to XXI Chophouse to celebrate our 25th anniversary as we were married at the chapel right next door and had our reception at the Doctor s House many years ago. The meal was fantastic! We shared a really tasty Caesar salad (the polenta croutons were delicious) and I had the best lobster rolls I ve ever had, including from the Maritimes! Our server Edward was very pleasant and attentive. Once he heard why were we there he brought us a tasty tiramisu to help us celebrate. What a wonderful experience!
Great atmosphere. Went for our anniversary and they take care of you.
Sat Aug 3rd .Service was ok, waiter indicated he would butterfly steak , it wasnt it was also rare I had asked medium well, his reasoning was a change in shift of kitchen staff, a shift change at 9pm?? The other more frustrating issue is I had a $200 gift card ,when I presented this the waiter left and came back with the bill that had an automatic 20% gratuity, he said that all gift cards are subject to this? I was never told this when I got the gift card, and to be honest the service was not worth an almost $60tip!!!. I have always enjoyed this restaurant but feel this time it just didnt measure up to the quality that it used to be.
First time dining here and really loved our experience. The food was very delicious and the service was very warm and friendly. A special mention to Edwardo who made our experience special.
The food was amazing, DJ Anthony was fantastic, and we will be back for sure! Can t wait to come back!
Lovely patio and lunch!
Absolutely, loved the entire dining experience. The DJ was wonderful. Would highly recommend. Parking: You pay for a parking ticket. We got asked if we would like a lift on the golf cart to door. Awesome. During and after dinner was asked to make sure we had our parking ticket as our parking was falidated.
Came with a couple of friends for late drinks and appetizers which were tasty. Great venue, atmosphere and vibe. Live dj with great music. Indoor and outdoor setting on point. Service was good.
Ray and Eduardo ensured that my birthday lunch was relaxing and very enjoyable. Excellent attentive service and food is always excellent. Fresh mint from the garden for our mojitos was the lime on top
Celebrated Easter with two other family members! The Easter Brunch was the best! Everything was fresh, tasty and delicious! Waiting for the 2025 Easter Brunch! I totally recommend this place for top quality food and atmosphere! Parking: Had our parking ticket validated!
Came for a Casual dinner Tonight with my wife and friends. Food was well worth the price. Bone marrow is excellent and lamb chops are tender and very flavourful . Service was 10 Stars. Ray was informative, well mannered, recommended excellent dishes to pair with our wine(Cabernet of course). Hostess was delightful. Ambience was great. Cheers to a wonderful night will definitely recommend to family and friends.
The second you walk in here you will know you are in for an excellent experience!!!
The food was really great, but we came for a business meeting and they push us too hard to order the most expensive wine, they didnt stopped, not a pleasant experience at all
We recently visited chop to celebrate my birthday with family and friends. We had a fantastic evening. The staff were friendly, knowledgeable and catered to all of our needs. The atmosphere was lovely. We had a great view of the beautiful grounds. Everything we ordered was better than expected. They were very accommodating to our children, offering them a variety of food options as well.
Prices are not worth the quality. 50.00 for the chicken ? Please. Get over yourself.
If we could write a 10 out 5 we would. Natasha and I were celebrating our anniversary. The restaurant staff greeted us with Happy anniversary. We were led to a corner booth, completely private, romantic and quiet. We were met by a very distinguished, handsome man named Voy. Well let us tell you, Voy is the most amazing, friendly, considerate, humourous, professional I have ever encountered throughout the 60 countries I travelled. Voy, I hope you are reading this, you and I are going to be good friends, the ambiance, the mood you created for me and the love of my life was perfection, the food was perfection, the music was perfection, the staff is perfection, both Natasha and I can t thank you enough for the romantic memory you provided will live in our hearts forever. God bless you all.
Wonderful atmosphere with top shelf food and service!
Dj Anthony is off the charts!
Amazing place, delicious food and hospitality on point. I love it here, cheers until next time.
We had a wonderful time at the Doctors House. Food was excellent. Our server Ray was great.
My experience at the steak house for a birthday party with a group of more than six was mixed. Our initial server was lacking in professionalism, providing only one menu for our group and rushing us to order before taking our drink order. However, after requesting a new server, Ray took over and provided excellent service, being much more pleasant and friendlier. The chicken dish I had was okay. One suggestion for improvement would be to inform guests of the kitchen closing time upon arrival for better planning. Overall, a mixed experience with room for improvement.
Went to this restaurant for a brunch event. Food was top-notch. There was a variety of buffet styles being served by waiters. Antipasto 10/10, seafood 10/10 desserts 10/10. Above all, the staff was extremely kind and helpful. Hospitality was 20/10.
Elio, was a great server. First time here will be back
Great food choices. Our dinner was excellent, and the service. Amazing.
Everything was amazing and worth all the value. Definitely recommend the oysters (what a show!) and dynamite shrimp. Service is fantastic and place such a vibe. 10/10 recommend
Over priced for their chicken. Their menu was very limited. My husband loves steak but Im vegetarian and their was nothing for me to eat to we ended up not staying. The atmosphere was cozy and upbeat.
Had dinner here on Valentine s Day and was extremely disappointed with both the food & service. Food was mediocre at best, took forever to come out and tasted like fancy cafeteria line food, surprised they re getting away with the price of their menu for the quality they re putting out. Only thing worse than the food was the service. It was nearly impossible to get the waiters attention, went over 25 minutes between being checked in on. Tried to wave down the waiter over 7x trying to get another drink. Was SHOCKED and disappointed to see an automatic 20% gratuity (on a table of 2) when the service was horrid, makes sense that they don t care about the service their providing when they don t have to work for their tip.
NOT IMPRESSED AT ALL!! Here is a list of things my wife and i encountered this very evening after going here for Valentines Day: 1) Hostess took 15 min to seat us, although there were about 4-5 couples in line, she said it was her first day and to pls bear with her....umm, not sure if I believe that, but it is what it is. 2. After being seated, took quite some time for a waiter to come and take our order, after which I asked the waiter (an older gentleman who worked there part time as he himself stated during some casual conversation) if, we could sample two different red wines before we ordered, his reply was are u going to sample all of them? 3. During ordering of our meal I asked the waiter to make sure my steak wasnt overcooked, I asked for medium and received medium well, all while waiting an hour for our meals to arrive (that was issue #4 btw). 5. The price of every single dish on their Valentines day menu was increased b/w 25-27% JUST FOR THE 1 DAY!! How do I know? Their VDay menu sheet was placed on top of the actual menu, very smart on their part wouldnt u say?? 6. When we asked for the bill, which happened to come very quickly I might add, I was shocked to see a 20% gratuity added?? For 2 people???? If this isnt sleepy, I dont know what is!! Of course I questioned this and had it removed off of our bill!! 7. DJ - hmmm. Although he wasnt that great given the loud club beats he was playing all night, not exactly the type one would prefer at a fine dining restaurant, some of the kids seemed to enjoy it, so Ill give it a pass!! This all led to a big fat $0.00 tip for our so called p/t waiter!! I tip for service and quality of which there was absolutely none of!! In conclusion, we will never return on a special occasion ever again!! I may give them another chance during a regular day, but it wont be for some time....kinda sad as we have had great meals there in the past..looks like management has taken a blind eye to quality and service!!
I went there last night with my wife for valentines day. The server (Gus) was fantastic. The food was amazing and the atmosphere was poppin.
Had high hopes for this place just based on their reviews and the area they were located. We ordered the calamari - it tasted like store bought Costco calamari. The bone marrow wasnt flavorful . Ive had bone marrow many times before. They had the striploin wagyu as their special. It was cooked well and tender but was way too salty . We ordered the 21 layer potatoes. Lacked flavor All in all definitely overpriced for what it was
Shockingly over rated. Too dark. Too loud music. Too high prices. And the nerve to charge 18 percent service. We were TWO PEOPLE and not a group where service charge would make sense. Get this. They said service charge added due to GIFT CARD BEING USED. AMEN. Need I say more.
Wonderful location and perfect food quality.
Got the salmon it was pretty good, place is cozy. Was there for a big birthday party. Only feed back to management, provide kids with healthy choices like juice instead of pop. There is also a DJ there and he is pretty good. Drinks are well just like at any other place you will find, however their wine is real good. Great selection.
The Best Steak in Toronto! Super Location and great service...I just love it!
Waited 1.5 hours for food With kids! Worst experience Forgot dessert Charged for desert
10/10 The food was phenomenal. The service impeccable and the DJ just killed it!!!! Parking: Parking is free if you dine at the restaurant.
Great, but extremely expensive.
Staff are rude and the food is not good!!
Had to book a last min dinner event for 30ppl and they were able to accommodate all my requests. Service was excellent and the food was very good too. Beautiful restaurant.
I had the best food here, lamb was sooo good and the steak . Waiter was very patient and welcoming. I would give them six stars if I could Parking: Enter the restaurant with your ticket and they take care of it Kid-friendliness: High chairs are provided
Good food! Good service!
Came here for a friends birthday with a large group. Food was incredible from apps to mains 10/10. Dry aged rib eye steak was the best I ve had. Service was good 9/10 little bit slow at times but it was busy so that s expected. Very nice very clean inside and out, will definitely be back again highly recommend.
The perfect setting paired with attentive service and delicious food. I have been here for both lunch and dinner and both are great. The tomahawk is a great cut to share and one of my favourites. The perfect spot for a casual bite or a nice event.
Always a treat!
Very very expensive
A very big and heart felt thank you to Mark and his entire team for an exceptional event, we hosted 65 guests and everything exceeded our expectations in absolutely every way, the atmosphere, the venue, the food and the service were beyond measure, and a big thank you to the new chef and kitchen staff for preparing a gastronomic journey which had each and every guest raving about the food. The personal attention to every detail by Mark and Gus, absolutely ensured a wonderful event and a very special day. Could not imagine having an event anywhere else !!!!!!!!!! Thank you Mark and his entire team !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We made reservations for three for 8 pm on Saturday. We got there at 8:05 and our dinner came at 9:50. We basically waited 1:45 minutes and the waiter didn t even once acknowledge it. The table next to us noticed how long we have been waiting and offered us their truffle fries. My daughter and I ate only a bite and packed the rest to take as we had lost appetite. The salmon was over cooked and dry. The lamb chops and steak were good.
Food and service were good. Great atmosphere and environment in the restaurant.
Outstanding service and excellent environment
It is everything that you would expect from this very lovely restaurant. The service was fantastic, the food was amazing. The atmosphere was wonderful. Not too crowded, nor was it loud. The only concern was when I asked for my steak to be well done, they said that it would be Medium/well. I am not if this because we were a large group, or they dont do well done. Other than that it was spectacular. Vegetarian options: They call themselves the worst vegetarian restaurant. That should let you know, Parking: Lots of parking was available
Terrible food that is over salted. Steak is not great quality. Bartender couldnt put together a cocktail to save their lives. Too bad as its a nice vibe in the dining room.
Superb in every way. Thank you Elio for taking great care of us!
The waiter was a bit inpatient and the kids sliders were not good both my kids didnt eat it. The chicken i had was great though.
Food service all impeccable Yes it s pricey but portions were good Our server made excellent recommendations And the chef actually came out to see how we were enjoying our meal I mean cmon who does that these day?! So nice Will def be back
Ill start out with what we ordered (wish I remembered to take pics to show you just how bad it was), the pros and then the cons. Celebrated our one year anniversary and got the lobster sliders, ceasar salad, steak, lamb chops, side of veggies, mashed potatoes and tiramsu. Beverages: glass of wine and a Virgin margarita. Pros: while some of it tasted fine, it wasnt anything special. Hence the 1 star for food. 1. Nice atmosphere, quiet 2. Ceasar salad tasted alright 3. Tiramsu tasted okay too 4. Both meats were cooked to our liking Cons: 1. The server/host showed us to our table and I proceeded to sit down, noticed that my seat was completely covered in crumbs so I took the napkin to wipe it off and the server says, oh I still have to clean that. Then why would you show us to our table if the the table wasnt ready?! 2. The server seemed to get very annoyed that I asked for a cocktail menu even after he listed me the cocktails he could make. Told him Im pregnant so I needed to see what sort of ingredients go into the cocktails and decide whether it would be good as a mocktail. When I ordered the margarita, they were out of the pineapple garnish and it was fine but the drink was so warm! Even with the 2 ice cubes in it 3. My husband orderded a glass of wine and they took his glass to pour it in the back or at the bar. Um what?! Wine is supposed to be served at the table. 4. We ordered 2 sides with the entrees (mashed potatoes and veggies) but the server failed to tell me my dish already came with the veggies! Waste of $18. The menu didnt indicate that it came with a side either. 5. The lobster sliders, all I could taste was the slaw and the bread 6. The salad wasnt the easiest to eat. Literally full romaine leaves (not cut or anything) on a plate with dressing and cheese. It also had cherry tomatoes which I picked out and put to the side. Who puts tomatoes in a ceasar? And the menu didnt say anything about it 7. What threw me off the most was the plating. For a fine dining restaurant where we spent over $400, everything was just slapped onto a plate (with the exception of the sliders). My husbands steak was literally just that. Steak on a plate, no garnish, nothing. Ive seen better presentation at the Keg. The dessert had 2 blackberries and 2 strawberries and a slab of tiramsu. When I made reso, I indicated it was our anniversary, would have been nice if they dressed up on the dessert plate or if the server even acknowledged the reason we were there. 8. The meats had zero taste. Have we forgotten about the art of marination? 9. There was another couple that came in and the staff seemed to know them so all the attention was given to them. 10. Usually, servers are trained to ask about allergies, but that wasnt asked of us either. We were 15 minutes late but I called to let them know. People may wonder why we didnt send the food back. My husband is the AGM of a Yorkville resraurant and so Im always concisous of sending back food (that I decided to order and would be the same if I got them to make me another plate). Would be different if it was cold or had something in it. When we got there, there as barely anyone in the restaurant so we thought wed get some next level service. Well, we were completely wrong. I would definitely not recommend this restaurant.
Awesome place !! Decor , staff, ambiance, and food !! Phenomenal selection of vintage wines and spirits. Unbelievable venue xlfor an event or wedding A true MUST !! Food : 5/5 |
Pricey but very good steak and vibe in Kleinburg
been to doctors house a few times first time to 21 chop since they added this . overall food was on par with fine steak houses and price comparable . Nice spot , decent price . would have rated higher but the atmosphere was slightly tarnished by the large group having a BD party beside us ! didn t mind the large party that was fine as I have been host to large gatherings in many restaurants myself . But what became obvious was this group was related to the owners as we watched them get up and bring dishes in and out of the kitchen in shorts and sandals and kids taking off to other parts of the restaurant . women getting up and dancing in middle of restaurant like it was a nightclub. We asked the server so tell me are these people related to the owner he kind of smirked like he knew it was not the most appropriate behaviour on their parts and rolled his eyes and said yes they are owners . Now even this part I m ok with , as family of the owners if you want to order the entire menu and be loud and have fun go for it but don t make it obvious by going in and out of the kitchen in shorts and sandals , entering the kitchen with plates of food then returning with food thus going to where the food prep area is and where all others customers are having their food prepared , which i m sure the health dept wouldn t agree wasn t the most sanitary or correct behaviour And don t have your kids ride their scooter in the restaurant and don t stand up and dance like your in a night club while paying customers are there ! Next time maybe just go to a private function area and block off and then do as you wish . There seem to be plenty of other rooms and space they could have used . Many customers were watching and found it a bit off. Sadly a generally nice restaurant with decent food and fair pricing would have gotten 5 star if not for the behaviour of the so called owners or their families . Not professional if you ask me . Too bad cause if wasn t for that I would have been back and would have recommended this place to friends but I simply in good faith can t now . perhaps a good lesson for the owners
Ate there twice, and cant wait to go back there again. The best steakhouse in Kleinburg. From service to food to atmosphere - you wont be disappointed. Its a staple in the city and its hard not to see why.
A quality place that offers meats and dishes at a very high level! Pastoral and pleasant area! Highly recommend. A meal that includes a tartare, 2 very tasty hamburger and agyu dishes, a soft drink and mineral water.
Food taste and presentation, table location and atmosphere fantastic. Server responsive but not intrusive. Reception and cold interior temperatures need improvement. Score of 4 overall due to the poor reception and cold temperature (a/c set too low). Parking: Be sure to get parking tag validated for free parking.
Gus was our waiter and he was very attentive and efficient. We really enjoyed having him as our waiter and also the food was excellent!!! Two of us had the filet mignon and one had the salmon dish. The appetizer of fried cheese sticks, the Caesar salad, Tiramisu and creme brulee were all delicious! We will be back!
We went here for my husbands birthday for the first time tonight. We enjoyed every course! For starters we chose the shrimp and prosciutto/burrata and it was amazing! The wine was our servers recommendation and it was delicious. for mains we had filet mignon snd newyork striploin with mashed potatoes and broccolini. Everything was delicious and the service was top notch!
The food and service was perfect The Filet mignon was cooked a perfect medium rare and was full of juices and flavor! The mushrooms were savory and had lots of flavor! Definitely going back with others! Food
My husbands favorites steakhouse...
One of our most favorite places to go, great good, service and atmosphere! Totally worth the money as it is a good quality place!
Great food, ambience and service!!!
Came on a Friday with another couple for a celebration. We ordered a couple of appetizers and each a main. I ordered fish of the day and was told it was a deboned white fish. I got lots of bones in my fish.. had to be careful with taking bites. Two people on the table had steaks and it was nothing to write home about. For 4 people the bill was about $800 and that was on the conservative end as we didn t splurge on the more expensive meals. Service was great but food left a lot to desire.
So expensive chicken was dry
Excellent food and services the right place to go for any special occasion
No matter how to describe the taste of the meat I won t actually give it a true description, you have to go there to Believe it, but to me this is the most delicious steak I have ever tried before and I am a steak person, ok the prices are not regular but trust me worth every penny an experience you will remember for a very long time.
All good. Nothing to complain about. Prices according to the place. Approximately $200 CanDlls (with wine, 2 whiskeys and dessert)
Amazing experience! Food was better than exceptional. Wait staff was fantastic and knowledgeable with foods and wines!
Its just perfect on everything
Excellent service. Best in the GTA. Great music DJ as well made the ambiance fantastic. Food was excellent but a little salty.
Amazing service! Had a beautiful dinner here to celebrate a special occasion and the server went above and beyond. Very welcoming environment and great food.
Wonderful restaurant, fab food, great service . However, look up prices before you go.
It was okay. To be honest quite over rated. I eat at restaurants every week. This place was a high rating so my 9 year old actually wanted to try it out. Our bill was around 900$ for the 6 of us, and the service was nice but very over priced for the quality. I have had better experiences that cost half the price and much better quality before.
Great experience, my rib steak was cooked to the medium temperature I ordered. Servers were quick to get drinks and very friendly. The one thing I had an issue with is that the parking lot costs $25.00 to park, unless you dine there, however the servers do not do a good job of advising you if this. If I didnt ask the bartender about it, I wouldve been out the $25.00 in addition to the $$$ spent on dinner. 2 vehicles in our party left early without asking, leaving them annoyed and out money they shouldnt have had to pay.
Our favorite place to go! The steak is amazing but It was too noisy. There is a DJ that we wished we could make him stop playing as the music didn t match the vibe at all! They were too busy and the service was not as we expected. Not sure if we go back.
Peppercorn sauce was very salty
Honestly, always on point
The cocktails here are done really well! The steak is cooked to perfection and their oysters are fresh! Check them out!
Steak was great. Good atmosphere.
Great food and service. I liked the decor. It s a modern twist on an old steakhouse. We went for lunch so it wasn t busy but perfect for our meeting. We had the Caesar salad, aged rib eye, fries and broccoli. The validate parking at the doctor house event space.
What a great place to eat. The food was a 10. Our service was a 10. Will be back soon!
The food is good and it has big portions Parking: You pay for parking $3/hr
One of my absolute favourite restaurants in the GTA. I ve eaten here more times than I can remember. The steak comes on a hot skillet with a great presentation to take photos/videos. Well decorated indoor with great ambiance. The flagstone patio with garden view is my absolute favourite during the summer months. Looking forward to my next visit.
Great place, fantastic food
It was just amazing as usual!
Amazing food and service! This restaurant is beautiful on the inside and is located in a great city!
Service was amazing, the food was breath taking especially the steak it had such a nice flavour to it, I would definitely recommend and I would definitely eat there again
The restaurant is classy and elegant. No other location in Kleinburg can compete! It is quiet, calm and exclusive and boasts pristine service. I want to shoutout Sergio for being such an excellent waiter. The steaks were cooked and seasoned to perfection, though the presentation of ALL the dishes needs improvement. Despite the aesthetic of the food, taste is king and XXI Chophouse delivers in that category. Yes, the restaurant is expensive. Yes, it is super luxurious. If you want to celebrate a really special occasion or you are a VIP, this is the place for you. Two important tips that are worth considering include: i) try the cheesecake cigar dessert and ii) reserved customer parking fees are waived if you spend over a certain amount.
Atmosphere for the restaurant was beautiful and the hostess we initially interacted with was extremely sweet . Now the first issue arose when the manager Gus took it upon himself to approach our table and went up to one of my guest to announce that we would not be-allowed to split the bill (which i was already made aware when booking with my concierge ). He said this in a very aggressive tone and then stormed off. We didn t even have any food on the table at this point . My guest who he approached was very embarrassed and this completely turned off myself and my other guest and made us uncomfortable being that he approached us in an aggressive manner and announced this loudly . We later pulled him to the side and he apologized to our group but the damage was done. Some of my guest even wanted to leave to go somewhere we would be respected but I convinced them to stay so we could simply have our meal and continue with our evening. Secondly , our server seemed nice initially but later became rude and harsh towards our group. We noticed she seemed very nice when approaching her other tables but when it came to us she was very cold and short (We have our own theory as to why this was but it is speculation so I will not assume publicly ) . She told us we needed to order our appetizers and mains at the same time . When we asked why the urgency, she stated that it was because the resteraunt was too busy for her to be coming back and forth to our group . When we looked around the resteraunt didn t even look to be at 60% capacity. Regardless it was very rude for her to basically tell us they were too busy for our group . We ordered our food and several items weren t delivered so we had to continuously follow up . When it came to food we found the appetizers to be quite good but most of my guest did not enjoy their mains and didn t even take them to go. Overall the atmosphere was lovely . But for a high end restaurant the level of customer service was extremely poor and the main food was subpar. I definitely would not recommend this place to anyone.
Every thing was terrible From the food to the service we received. long wait for food and the restaurant wasn t busy. Our waiter was rude and the manger was very disrespectful and has no customer service skills. the food was over cooked and bland no flavour. They kept taking the plates and drinks from the table although some people weren t finished and did not ask if we were done with it. They were nice to the people at the other tables, but not nice to us . I felt they rushing us to order quickly and leave This is my first and last time going. I d rather go to swiss chalet then this place.
Very rude people, they act as they are better than anyone. Food is not 5 stars as well for how they act.
Located in Kleinberg, this a beautiful steakhouse that is located in the convention centre called The Doctors House. This is a chophouse and the rib eye steak we ordered was cooked to perfection. One of my guests ordered the tagliatelle with beef, and were really disappointed to hear that it was not available. Two of us ordered the spaghetti pescatore. The portion size was good, but it was too salty and neither of us could finish. For dessert we requested the crème brulee. Unfortunately it was not traditional vanilla but pumpkin spice flavour. That was a pass for us.
This restaurant never disappoints. From the amazing attentive yet non intrusive and friendly service to the absolutley amazing steaks. That even when cooked rare - medium rare still cut like butter. Thanks again for an amazing anniversary at the place we wed.
Food tastes amazing,rich, spiceful , tasty. I will definitely recommend French onion soup, beef bone marrow and lamp chops.
First time at this restaurant and what a treat. The atmosphere, the service, the choices and food quality were second to none. Everything was top notch. There was a group of us and we started with grilled Calamari and grilled Octopus, both dishes were spectacular. I ended up having the salmon with grilled veggies, one of the best salmon dishes I have had, anywhere. For a special date or you just want a great night out, check out XXI Cophouse, you will not be disappointed.
Perfect place for a work party dinner.
Great atmosphere. Food was okay. Sea food used to be better. Lamb chop is over rated. Waiter was good. Washrooms need updating. Espresso Martini is so good.
Holy moly, Ive never encountered a $150.00 steak outside of NYC... And this is in some no-name town in the middle of nowhere!! Im sorry, I dont care how much money you have, there is no justification for paying that price for any piece of meat. The lowest priced steak is over $60 for an 8 ounce!! NO!! HELL NO!! And atmosphere does not make up for that price at all. This is avarice and gluttony rolled into one package. Big nope from me.
Chef Eddie makes the best food there is. I really recommend going here to get the best food ever. He is such an amazing person and chef. Plus he plays fortnite!!! really recommend
Nice staff. Cozy and good food
Food was good, it s why I m giving it a 3 star. Appreciate the dry aged steak options on the menu and beautiful ambience. Service on the other hand was a 1 for the price of the dinner. The server did not introduce himself and seemed discombobulated. He did not explain any of the dishes and when we asked questions he didn t really know what he was talking about, there was a second server who kept coming around and cleaning after him. If this person was assumably training, this should have been communicated in the beginning. Service is HUGE part of the whole dining experience, and for that I have to rate 3 stars.
I think the best steak for really long time. Customer service was excellent. Very welcoming and pleasant people
Great food and upscale ambiance. Love eating here!
Food is amazing, recommend to visit
The food was unbelievable here. I was there for my birthday and the service and food was incredible. Will go back there again.
I ve come here many times and had a great experience. The staff are very kind and informative. Coming from a person who does not love eating lamb because not many restaurants know how to cook it properly; I must say I was blown away! The lamb chops here are great. The steak is very juicy, the texture of the meat is on point. The staff has never disappointed me when I let them pick my wine. Keep up the great work team! This is what I m talking about when I say every steakhouse needs to stand out in their own way!
Great food!
Very good place, found this place by calling everywhere just to book a Patio. However this place surprised me, great food and service. Definitely worth the money to spend some good time here.
Thank you to Gus and staff for making our event so special despite COVID restrictions. A special thank you to Wally who went above and beyond his duties and helped create memories for our family. Perfect food, perfect ambiance and perfect evening!
Amazing as always
Great service but the drinks are below average.
Honestly I wish I could be leaving a better review. The service, especially from our waitress Gennie(?) was phenomenal. The ambiance was also great. However, the food was simply not up to par. I had a striploin, ordered it medium rare. It came out medium well, and was very dry. I told Gennie and she had it remade right away. Second one was much better, actually medium rare this time. However the outside was burnt, not charred, burnt. It was salted unevenly; first few bites were unseasoned, and by the time I got to the middle it felt like I was eating salt. I really wanted to like this place, but the food ruined the entire experience. If the food was better this review would be a 5 star for sure.
This place is only kind to those who have a lot of money. I had dinner at this restaurant with friends for a birthday and our waiter wouldnt let us order anything we want. I wanted the fish tacos for my dinner along with other choices and had the guts to tell me this is an appetizer, you have to order from the main course menu. Obviously because he wants us to spend more money which means a bigger TIP. So then 3 of us ordered the lobster pasta and of course he made a comment about that why would you order pasta at a steakhouse?. I didnt appreciate that at all, he just wants more money. MY LOBSTER WASNT FULLY COOKED!!! And very bland. I did feel nauseous after the restaurant. After the dinner was over, the waiter brought us the bill but we were are all paying individually. I calculated my part of the bill and he said to me walking away with attitude Im bringing everyone a new bill. If this wasnt my friends birthday I would have told him off since the beginning. He brought us our new bills of course with the tip already included. He doesnt deserve it at all. Dont go here unless you have $300 minimum to spend between two people or else they will not take you seriously. Never coming here again.
STAY AWAY!!!!!!! We came here for a birthday party. The bill came out to $911 for 8 people and they charged us $16 for TWO BOTTLES OF WATER!!!! A complete rip off!!!! For comparison, Jacobs bottled water (from Italy) is only $4. Their other drinks were incredibly overpriced as well... $5 for pop and $70 for a $17 bottle of wine from LCBO. The ambiance was 5/5, however the food was a 1/5... We ordered two strip loins in the group. One of them came incredibly dry the first time, and they remade it, however it was still too charred on the outside. The rest of the food was also mediocre. For $100 a person you can get better food at The Keg. Or just spend a bit more and go to Mortons or Jacobs.
Great food, great staff and beautiful atmosphere
I came here with 2 of my friends & this was probably one of our worst experiences at a restaurant! As we are the true definition of foodies we love going to restaurants to spend money, take pictures and try some of the best items on the menu. As to why we got the 200$ 48oz tomahawk steak only to find out that it was FULL OF FAT! 48oz of meat between 3 people and we were only able to get 2 good pieces of meat each? For 200$?? That s very embarrassing and the restaurant should have never even brought that out to us. Not only was it full of fat there was absolutely not one sprinkle of salt or any flavor for that matter on the steak. Truly a disappointment. Not only was the steak horrible, as they brought it out they knocked over our espresso martini all over us causing glass to shatter resulting in one huge mess! We all had to leave the table to go to the washroom to try to clean ourselves off which made the steak cook extra long on the skillet which made our steak go from medium rare to probably medium well! When we mentioned to our server how unsatisfied we were all he had to say was sorry I don t make the food it s not my fault.. Well obviously we know a waiter doesn t cook the food but what did he expect me to do? Go into the kitchen myself and talk to the chef ? It s his job to communicate with the kitchen the comments and concerns that the customers who are the ones spending the money have. I understand things can happen but it was the way they handled the whole situation that truly upsets me. I should have stuck to my roots and went to an upscale steakhouse in Toronto.
Customer service is awful!
Terrible customer service! I rarely write 1-star reviews, but this was something unreal. Called on Sturday, Oct.2nd and was told they open at 5pm and no reservation needed if we just show up on time. When we came to the host she asked for reservation (???) and told us that she can seat us only around 7pm and when I asked that I was misinformed to come at 5pm without reservation - she just laughed into my face! True $$$ experience. What a joke! Save your time - go to any other neighbour restaurant (which we gladly did).
Amazing food! Set up a business dinner here and our waiter was absolutely amazing, the food was perfectly done! The music and ambiance was on point !
Great food and music is pumping!
Awesome
Over priced. Had better steak at cheaper steak houses
Amazing. Never a bad meal. Always beyond delicious
Visited a couple of times,for drinks and appetizers & dinner as well,always great service,food is really good,had their selection of fresh oysters, carpaccio is to die for and of course a very well aged steak.Bartender Mary always made sure we were taken care of and had a blast at the bar.
Mouth watering steak and top notch service. One of the tastiest steaks I ve had in a while. The true flavor of dry age really comes through and steak was cooked to perfection. The apps were equally delicious. Kids and adults alike ate their fill and then some. Service was friendly and professional. Had an amazing time. Will go back.
20 bucks for a plate of gnocchi and only getting 6, thats right 6 on your plate
We enjoyed a lovely brunch here on a Sunday recently. The selection was expansive, and the service was excellent. It s tight navigating the space, but who could blame them when they have so many awesome options to pick from. Nice to see people still doing a good Sunday brunch. Looking forward to coming back and trying dinner here one evening.
Amazing food, service and atmosphere!
Wonderful place with great service and amazing menu!
Took my family here for lunch on Sunday to celebrate our wedding anniversary. I dont usually write reviews but I have to say thank you to everyone at the Doctors House. The incredibly high level of service, friendly faces and fantastic food reminded us what we have missed from not dining out over the past 6 months. Beautiful grounds, great people and delicious food. Could not have asked for a better day with my family. XXI Chophouse will be a go-to for our family from now on!
Awesome costumer service! Thank you!!
very clean inside nice staff and prices are appropriate
The ambiance is amazing! The food is definitely on the pricier side but it is 100% worth worth every penny.
Delicious food and amazing service!
Food was great! Our server Voy was amazing! Yes pricey, but the experience was totally worth it.
The atmosphere is amazing! The service was spectacular! The steaks for the price were not bad but not excellent. A nice place to go out to and fantastic during covid as its very private and safe!
Everything was perfect. Food, service, atmosphere... This is the place where everything is great but nobody tries to show off. And that makes this place unique!
Service was amazing there all extremely accommodating the food was also amazing first time here and will be coming more regularly had an asking experience and that s coming from going to majority of the steakhouse in or around GTA highly recommend to go here if you haven t yet
Service was a bit disappointing but the food was great.
Loved the service, beautiful place and tasty food!
Horrible service and food. First time dining at this establishment but I will never go back. Too bad because the atmosphere is very beautiful. My lamb was under cooked and servers had so much attitude.
Customer service is horrible and the manager Tory refuse to replace our rotten lobster. She automatically assume we wanted it taken off our bill because were brown people. The owners were on site and refuse to talk us.
Ambiance is great. If you like Steak then its a 5 Restaurant. Everything else on the Menu is Ok. Not very tasty.
My husband and I decided to go XXI Chophouse for a date night. The building is very nice and our server was a really nice older gentleman. It did have 5 other weddings going on, so the building was buzzing. My only downside is sadly the food quality is not there relative to the ambiance and the location. We had decided to order calamari as our appetizer and it was overly salty. My husband ordered the garlic shrimp and it had an awful smell to it that we couldn t eat it. Not sure if there were not properly storing or thawing meat/seafood. For our mains, my husband went with a steak prepared medium. Sadly there was no flavour and it was drenched in bbq sauce. I went with the Lamb Chops. It was supposed to be pistachio crusted, but it was more like pistachio drizzle. The Lamb lacked flavour. The two pieces of potato I got on my plate was uncooked and hard. Given our appetizer and mains disappointment, we decided to skip on dessert. Honestly, it was our first and sadly we will not return. There are far greater and more worthy steakhouses to spend our $400 at.
The ambiance & service is fine, and as for the food, well it may depend on who is on staff in the kitchen that night. As for now it still is one of my favourite restaurants.
The food was good but not worth the price tag. We were fortunate to have an excellent Dj the night we went.
Service was great. Food was great. Slightly pricey.
great parking wine one of the best steak was fantastic the music is beautiful and makes u do dance i would come back for sure love this place this was our first time trying this place 5 stars
