We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. It was for a dinner for 3, and they sat us at a wonderful table with an amazing view. The waitstaff was attentive but never intrusive. They never rushed us and the food was excellent. I feel like this is a...hidden gem that we will definitely revisit!More

One of the best spots to enjoy fine dining experience while taking in the city skyline of Toronto. I've been there twice already and both times I had great, attentive service. The culinary experience was just as you'd expect from a restaurant in that price...point. I would recommend for anyone seeking a unique experience. I will be back.More

We ate breakfast again this year at Stratus. It was very good. We tried the salmon and the regular eggs benedict. Both were excellent. We really enjoy the view and our waiter was very nice.

After working all day we though this would be a good spot to relax and unwind. Unfortunately, finding the place is the first challenge as there are no signs at the building entrance to guide you. It was party night at the restaurant with a...private room filled next to the main restaurant and, unfortunately, about every 5 seconds the door to the party room would open and the noise spilled out because the door to the room does not close when opened so we watched the staff going to close the door a few dozen times during the night. The menu is very limited and rather eclectic so read it inline before you go. While my Caesar salad was good, my wife’s meatballs were not cooked enough so after waiting 15 minutes after I finished eating, she decided to just cancel the meal.More

We had a nice happy hour here and the venue is perfect - quiet and cozy. The signature cocktail was awesome and I had their Paper Plane. The snacks we had are fried chicken and shrimps and they are delicious!

I recently went here for a business lunch with an old boss of mine. Points for: - The food itself was quite good - The portions were not that large, but quite reasonable - It was quiet enough for us to have a conversation at...a reasonable volume Point against: - There is a smell from the gym across the way when you arrive. It went away as I went deeper into the restaurant but as someone who's sensitive to scents that was not a good start.More

My son & I had brunch today at Stratus, following his squash match. The food is good & fresh. The server, Nicole, offered juice to my son, which he gladly accepted. When I received the bill for $8 OJ, I asked if there was a...mistake. No, apparently this is the price for “fresh squeezed”. Absolutely ridiculous. I travel weekly for work, in Canada & Europe. I’ve never paid so much for a glass of OJ. The price took away from our experience and it’s unlikely that we would return.More

Is that Canadian « hospitality » or just the Stratus way of making business? My wife and I came on Valentine’s day at 21:30, after dinner, for a drink and dessert. The bar was 100% empty and from the host station at the entrance, we could see...4 empty tables. Yet we were refused services, because on V. day, « you are required to purchase the special menu »! Canadians are earlier diners and I doubt those tables and bar seats would have been filled later by dining customers. Yet, a lack of flexibility, no doubt due to strong managerial instructions, led the hostess to insist that we could not come in for drinks and dessert. This not only shows lack of service and concern for customers, but also poor « revenue management. » Anyway, the view may be nice, but the service may not be worth going up 36 floors.More

We read about Stratus on TripAdvisor and decided to try it for breakfast the other day. We were seated at a table looking out at Lake Ontario and the Union Station area of downtown Toronto. Our server was excellent and made us beautiful cappuccini with...designs. Made me think of Firenze! We had the Salmon Eggs Benedict and the poached eggs combo. Both were excellent!More

Lovely night time view of Toronto. I think I would like to go back in summer to see it when there is more light and when the lake would be visible.

I’m so sorry I didn’t see this! It was corporate, but I think it could have accommodated kids in a corner (probably not comfortably). Did you go?
