Reviews
Such a nice experience at The Gardens this summer. Reservations for 6pm and we were seated promptly and the food came within 15 mins. Food quality and selection was great, I had the lamb chop and my husband had the mixed grill. Both very tasty! Knocked off one star for being seated next to a trash can! Not very aesthetically pleasing.
The situation isn’t nearly as dire as other reviews let you believe. This is Toronto it’s not cheap - prices here are similar to anywhere else. Service was a tad bit slow and burger was a bit dry but overall good. Sangria and mushroom cannelloni was amazing
Great experience - we were booked for 4pm and everything went smoothly. Seated near the fountain, food was like any other restaurant $20-$40 on average, reasonable portions, waiter was nice and quick with drinks and food. We went over our time a little bit because our desserts came out late and we felt a bit rushed but it wasn’t too bad. The atmosphere is what you’re really going for - love music and the decor is beautiful!!
Such a nice experience and great food. The parking situation was not good, we had to go to George brown to park and walk over but as soon as you arrive the staff is fantastic and so friendly. We ordered 2 appetizers which were so delicious, the tuna nachos and crab fritters. Our table ordered a few different mains but I’d say the mushroom cannelloni was the winner, the lobster ravioli was also delicious and although I didn’t try it myself I heard the burger was also great the fries were surprisingly not great but amazing nonetheless. The only suggestions I have is to not provide plastic cups or plastic straws.
They had allocated the gardens to wedding venues before, but due to COVID-19 pandemic, they opened this site to the public this summer for the first time. The Garden is amid the castle's stunning gardens and offers guests the splendid view of Toronto skyline, CN Tower and the historic Casa Loma castle. You need to book through OpenTable and there is no other way around it. They usually get fully booked way ahead of time; especially if you want to go in with a group of people. There are limited parking spots available in the castle parking lot and Upon arrival, you need to pay $15 to be able to use the parking. The hostess didn't seem that welcoming or friendly. We waited a few minutes to be seated. We ordered Martini, Rose and Mojito for drinks and medium "Steak Frites", "Brisket & Chuck Burger" and "Grilled Octopus" for our meal. Our drinks tasted ok, steak was delicious, but the brisket was burned, which is not acceptable for a high-end restaurant, but I guess they believe people go there for the view and not the food quality! Once we were finished with our meal and our waitress made sure we're not ordering anymore, she brought us the bill without asking, even though there were many empty tables. So, we paid and did a walk around the garden and fountain and left.
Worst place I have ever been to, booked it for me and my partner's anniversary dinner, thinking cause it was Casa Loma it should have good food. Boy was I wrong. When we got there, they sat us at a makeshift table, it looks like those tables that were not meant to be dining table, as both me and my partner could not at all put our legs in front of us, we literally had to put our legs on the side or sit like a squat. We then waited a good 15 minutes until our server came, thinking the hostess forgot to notify the waiter we were seated, but the waiter that served us we saw walk around our table a good 3 to 4 times. We are this point were ready to order our meal, we got tap water as we were already annoyed at the service and just wanted to eat and look at the view. I ordered the brisk burger while my partner ordered the grilled salmon. The burger was overcooked and dried, no sauce at all, the brie was on half the burger, the leaf/lettuce was a small little thing that didn't even cover the burger, had ONE small tomato slice. Then comes the fries, totally undercooked, not seasoned, for that meal to be $24, I could get something a lot better somewhere else. The grilled salmon on the other hand, costing $30, he expected the salmon to be either wild or organic, it was neither. It had a small balsamic vinegar salad, then the salmon has no sauce, literally a drop the size of your thumb of lemon aioli, enough for a bite and a half. The only good part of the salmon, is the 4 asparagus that the salmon was on. At the end, when we ask for the waiter for the bill, he came over with the bill, but was hovering over us when we were paying, gesturing for a minimum of 20% tip. Overall, not worth the price or time, would rather pay for admission and just take pictures of the castle and gardens.
It was worth the experience. Amazing views and I highly recommend coming here during the evening. Our waiters and service were great. We didn’t have to wait too long for food. That said, the food definitely falls flat like most have mentioned. For what you can get elsewhere for the same dish. This falls below standards. Come here for a drink, watch the views and appreciate the beauty of the castle.
Had a wonderful dinner experience yesterday. Dinner with a beautiful background and garden surroundings . The food was great and cooked just right to our taste. We even finally enjoyed a nice simple desert , as dinner was just right serving. The waiter was excellent. He always checked in and all the food and drinks came out in time . Loved the dinner out with the family.
The place is beautiful, we got a reservation for an early dinner so we were able to enjoy the scenery. The food was pretty good and the service was good as well. Not sure if I would come back, but it is definitely a place to go at least once.
I didn't go in with much expectations after reading the reviews. Not sure if it's because i booked an early dinner but I got there 15 min earlier than my reservation. We went to the waiting area and it was socially distanced, we were served ice water while we waited. After getting seated, the server came around and we ordered. Overall the experience wasn't bad at all, timely service and quite pleasant. My food was tasty and the plating wasn't that bad compared to others'. Just a bit pricey but you are paying to eat at The Gardens at casa loma.
