Antler Kitchen & Bar

We had a great time at the chef’s table, watching all the chefs prepare our food right in front of us. Every dish was non-pretentious and truly had thought and care behind it - good Canadian ingredients, cooked well to let the flavours shine. It was clear that the diner experience was prioritized as well because there was (finally!) enough sauce and accoutrements on my plate for every bite and each dish ate very cleanly. Our favourites were the bone in venison (so smoky and tender), the duck fat fingerling potatoes (I will be ordering a side of them all for myself next time), and the boar cavatelli (toothsome and savoury but also light?? Truly witchcraft). The sticky toffee pudding and chocolate torte were some of the best desserts we’ve had in recent memory as well - honestly just perfect, no notes!! I would recommend skipping the wine pairing and go for cocktails instead. It felt like there was no real sommelier in house and some of the pairings fought the food instead of complementing them or just didn’t make much sense (e.g. white wine with boar?). Each wine came much too early before each dish and we barely got any descriptions of the wines either (at one point all i got was “this is from portugal” LOL) But the duck à l’orange cocktail was delicious and a lot of the other cocktails on the menu looked really interesting. Overall, even though front of house service was lacking, the food and kitchen staff really make this a 5 star review - I highly recommend making a trip out here!

Every time we come here they make us want to come back! Amazing food and service.

My partner and I went for the 7 course tasting menu, and I think we both had high expectations, but our meal managed to exceed them. Every dish, from the meats to the sauces and desserts was absolutely delicious.

Great Restaurant!

Awesome food.

The food is amazing and the service is on point. Great recommendations, perfectly cooked food, a great experience all around. They are very attentive to their patrons. The noise level of a large group was quite high and they moved us without us even asking! If you’re in Toronto definitely check this place out!

Stopped by for lunch and had a really enjoyable meal. The food was fresh, full of flavor, and nicely prepared. The atmosphere was relaxed, the service was attentive, and there were plenty of tempting options on the menu. I'd definitely recommend it.

Awesome food and great staff. I've been hunting for 20 years and never had venison that great!

An incredible meal from Chef Coby and the team as they embrace all that Canada has to offer in providing incredible ingredients from coast to coast. The tasting menu with wine pairing was made even better with the seats at the kitchen as well could enjoy the show and have the dishes served and explained by Chef himself. The wine pairings were great, and the continuity in the dishes was exceptional. From fish to fowl to red meat was a real treat. Highly recommend.
