Absolutely incredibal experience at Hys Steakhouse! The service was amazing, the food was phenomenal, and the location was perfect. We were celebrating a birthday, and everything from start to finish was exceptional. The staff made the occasion feel extra special. Highly recommend!

This place is great. From the moment you get in til you leave, treatment is great.
Prawn cocktail and Steak Tartare - must do.
The tabelside service for the Tartare is awesome.

No regrets.

I cannot speak highly enough about our two visits this week to Hy’s in Toronto. I am a steak fanatic from London UK … they had to live up to my high expectations and they did.

Having had a really good experience on Sunday we visited again Wednesday.

The steak was excellent quality meat and perfectly cooked to medium rare.

Might sound a bit strange but the onion rings on both visits were superb!!

However a highlight is the mashed potato!! Great consistency with some nutmeg to flavour … to die for alongside a very good peppercorn sauce.

Desserts were excellent … I could’ve started at the top and worked my way through.

Wines were satisfactory and Tom Collins refreshing.

Chatting with a staff member he probably nailed it when he said … “we basically do meat and potatoes but we do very good meat and potatoes”. That is simplifying things to an extreme but sometimes that works.

Service was outstanding.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Hy’s to fellow steak lovers.

Hy‘s Steakhouse is in Toronto downtown near to the Old City Hall located.

The building is not spectacular, but the interior and the room are so.

They have an outstanding bar area inside the restaurant.

I ordered a porterhouse steak with a green salad.
The steak was perfect!

The staff is also outstanding and very helpful.

I enjoyed my diner there very much.

Celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary at Hy’s in Toronto was truly unforgettable from the moment we arrived. We were greeted with genuine warmth, congratulated on our milestone, and graciously told, “your table is ready and waiting for you,” immediately setting the tone for a thoughtful and memorable evening.

Every detail of the night felt exceptional. We began with the jumbo prawn cocktail, crab cakes, and Hy’s famous cheese toast for two, famously irresistible for a reason. Each dish was beautifully prepared and full of flavour, accompanied by teardrop peppers, fresh corn and hearts of palm. Our selections were perfectly complemented by a rich Chilean Cabernet and a Picaro cocktail.

For our main course, we enjoyed a perfectly prepared 14 oz New York striploin, served alongside a mixed green salad with red wine vinaigrette, brown sugar pecan carrots, charred lemon parmesan asparagus, and sautéed cremini mushrooms, mashed and baked potato. Each element was delicious and elegantly presented, creating a meal that felt both indulgent and impeccably balanced.

Our servers, Jacob and Jimmy, elevated the experience to another level. Jacob was attentive, knowledgeable and accommodating throughout the evening, while Jimmy brought a natural warmth and charm that made us feel completely at ease. Discovering his Greek heritage was a delightful and unexpected connection, bringing back cherished memories of our honeymoon in Greece and adding a deeply personal touch to our celebration.

To conclude the evening, Jimmy prepared bananas foster tableside with remarkable skill and elegance. As he sautéed ripe bananas in butter, brown sugar, and fresh orange juice before flambéing them with dark rum, the presentation was both captivating and refined. Served over vanilla ice cream, it was a flawless and memorable finale.

A thoughtful surprise from dear friends—cheesecake and prosecco—made the evening even more special, with Hy’s famous cheesecake and berry compote providing a perfect final note.

Hy’s delivered an exceptional dining experience in every respect—impeccable service, outstanding cuisine, and an atmosphere that makes any occasion feel truly significant. We would highly recommend it to anyone looking to celebrate a special moment in a setting that exceeds expectations.

Had a lovely dinner here to celebrate a graduation this evening! The service was excellent - hostesses and servers were very friendly and professional. The rib steak was excellent, along with the asparagus and broccoli as accompaniments. Live music was also a great touch. Don’t forget to start with the tableside caesar and end with the banana foster! Special thank you to our server, Jimmy, for making the experience so wonderful & memorable.

Everything about Hy’s is top notch - ambiance, service, and most importantly, the food!

Got to give a shout out to Prentice who provided best-in-class service! He designed the perfect lunch for us.

Definitely do not miss out the cheese bread - it’s something else! The shrimp cocktail is four completely symmetric jumbo shrimp. We listened to Prentice and got the bone-in NY to share instead of individual strips - completely the right call!

We had the pleasure of dining here before a show and it was fabulous! My husband had never experienced Hy's before and he was more than happy with our dinner. The cheesy bread was a must of course and he absolutely loved it. The staff was fabulous with a special mention going out to Gabriel! From start to finish, our visit to Hy's was woderful! Thank you.

Few restaurants are as storied and celebrated for grand elegant dining as Hy’s, where being there is already a cause for celebration! My dear friend and colleague Sir Bruce’s favorite restaurant for decades. Our server Dayna was wonderful and provided superb service, helped select wine, and prepared our flambéd bananas Foster. Cesar salad prepared tableside. Huge porterhouse and filet steaks grilled to perfection. Seared scallops and prawn cocktail appetizers, sides of mashed potatoes and cremini mushrooms all delicious. An awe inspiring vaulted ceiling towers over the long bar and dining galleria. A superb evening! Highest recommendation! 👑🐒⚜️ d

Unique food experience with great steaks and plot twist… oysters too! Tried the Rockefeller oysters, and they were so yummy. It’s such a unique dish.

I also really loved the in-table cooking experience with the Diana fillet and banana, so, so good and fun!

Amazing service by Jim and Gab, they made the night even better!

We had the aged New York strip and filet, along with fresh oysters; everything was cooked perfectly and full of flavor.
The ambience was really nice too, with live chill music and a cozy elegant decor that made the whole evening feel special.
Gabe was great! super welcoming and attentive. Would definitely come back!

This is a great date night spot! Right in the center of DT. The service was great everything was perfect. The food was amazing. The Caesar Salad and steak tartar they make at your table. The steak tartar was so fresh! I order the prime rib steak cooked to perfection. Honestly one of the best steaks I had! If your looking for a great steakhouse this is the place for you! For a side I would reccommend the grilled asparagus!! There was a live singer in Saturday night which was very nice!

I would like to start off with saying that I don't eat steak. We were a group of 5 on a Friday at 5pm. We had reservations. We were able to order from the happy hour menu until 6pm. I had a hamburger and I wouldn't recommend it. There also sliders, but they were cuts of beef instead of ground beef. I did not try any of the cocktails. The wine list is extensive and highly recommended. I would come back to try the drinks.

Thank you very much for made our Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve so special for us. Our experience in your restaurant was amazing. All of you were so kind and gentle. Your service and the quality of your Ingredients of meals absolutely high class. We will come back in your house on our next Trip to world open and great Toronto and join you again🥹🥰🤗💖Thnx a lot to for making our trip so special.Lovely greeting from Mainz near Frankfurt.Family Maria Maria Flores
