4 weeks agoCame here for a culinary experience, and we definitely received it! We came for the chefs tasting and were given 7 unique courses that brought me out of my comfort zone. The chef was very friendly and fun to talk to when exploring the dishes he created. The unique ingredients and plating added to it all. I’d highly recommend to come at least once and try it! They have a very wide range of food from basic to extravagant wild meats. I love that this is a seasonal place and it changes with what ingredients are available! My favourite was the sticky toffee pudding - but I’m a dessert person! The bison was also a close favourite

2 weeks agoA hidden Gem in Toronto. The flavors are very well balanced, the service is outstanding, the meat was cooked to perfection, the serving size was just perfect. I recommend having the family-style food menu for 2 or more people (everything you want to eat is here, minus the burger). Went here for my birthday and it did not disappoint. This place should be part of the Michelin Star guide.

a month agoWe had a fantastic experience at Antler this past Saturday while celebrating a milestone birthday. From the start, the staff was incredibly helpful in coordinating all the logistics, making the planning process smooth and stress-free. The food was absolutely phenomenal—creative, delicious, and beautifully presented. Service was fast, attentive, and friendly, helping to make the evening feel extra special. Our only wish is that our two tables could have been closer together, or that we’d had a better understanding of just how far apart they would be, as it did leave the group feeling a bit separated. That said, we couldn’t be happier with our choice to celebrate at Antler and can’t wait to come back again.

in the last weekOne of the rare spots in Toronto that’s well deserving of its Michelin rating. The bison ribeye and venison were spectacular to the point of not being able to choose a favorite. The grilled leeks and veg that came with the mains were also amazingly done. Red wine was better than some wine bars I’ve been to. The charcuterie was a really fun exploratory taste, definitely more out there in selections - the only thing to pass up on the truffle fingerling potatoes, which are a bit dense variety for the delicate taste. Will be returning!

2 weeks agoThis place was incredible! Went last night for my 40th birthday. The atmosphere is wonderful, it's a smaller space so it felt busy but it wasn't overwhelming. Great ambiance with the lighting. Our server Isobel was wonderful, gave us recommendations when asked and nailed it completely. The food was everything I hoped for. The Alberta bison steak was phenomenal...I would recommend this resteraunt to absolutely everyone with some adventure and love of meat in them...and do not skip on the dessert. Definitely going back again. Can't speak highly enough about our whole experience. Again Isobel was wonderful!!!
