Service and attention were outstanding and food very well prepared. The restaurant is located in a very classy and elegant hotel, probably from the year 1800. This is a place you cannot miss.

We had an outstanding anniversary dinner at Hy’s Toronto. The food was exceptional from start to finish — perfectly cooked steaks, incredible flavours, and flawless presentation. The tableside dishes were a highlight of the night; the showmanship added so much fun and elegance to the experience. A huge shoutout to Jimmy, who delivered unforgettable tableside preparations with skill, charm, and precision. And sincere thanks to Gabe (Gabriel) for his impeccable service — attentive, professional, and genuinely welcoming. They both made our 25‑year celebration feel truly special. Hy’s delivered top‑tier food, atmosphere, and hospitality. Highly recommended for any occasion where you want everything to be perfect.
