   This is a great place for a Weekend Brunch or before theatre dinner. One can go directly from the Restaurant to The Streetcar Crowsnest Theatre without going outside. Underground parking next door or street parking on Carlaw. Great menu offering delicious cuisine, excellent service and quiet atmosphere. We have been here many times and have never been disappointed. Highly recommend.

   Unrushed service and lovely food. I felt though that for the price, the servings could have included bread and a vegetable. I have never had mussels with a slice or two of baguette being included. I did mention this to our server who was nice enough to bring me a few slices when I mentioned it.

   Great service but the food was not very exciting for the price. Great though if you are attending the theatre right next door.

   Food has been very good in the past. This time just ok. Perhaps a sign of the tough times restaurants are having these days. Service was top notch though.

   Excellent value and delicious food. They didn't have our table ready on time for our reservation (10 min delay) so they offered us complementary beverages at the bar while we waited. Would definitely be back next time I'm in Toronto! Highly recommend.

   Food was very good to excellent. Service was terrible. Server awkward and unapologetic when things took way way longer than they should have. In fact she was intimidating and rude. Having booked a 2hour slot prior to showtime, we had to rush through our main courses to make it to the show on time.

    Its decent food. I’ve had better but this was not bad. The apps were better than the mains. Steak in mains was probably the best.

    Another excellent meal at Gare de L'Est. The Coq au Vin, Saumon Vigneron, and Duck Confit were served PERFECTLY prepared, and arrived hot (which seems to be a missing feature in some restaurants!). Starters included the French Onion soup and Pate Grandmere. Service was very accomodating, and don't forget Tuesday nights are half price wine bottles! All around, our neighborhood go to for a good meal, at reasonable prices.

    Consistently providing high quality service and excellent food. Great professional staff. Wonderful venue for pre-theater dinner for those who attend Crow's Theater next door. James, the General Manager, brings a welcoming touch and treat clients with great attention. Always a wonderful dining experience. P.G. and S.T.

    The aesthetic was very comfortable, and if you're seeing a show at the Guloien Theatre, locationally it can't be beat. We were there for the Winterliscious menu. Even though we were there for 5:45, they ran out of one of the three apps--the escargot. Seriously? We both had the trout, which was delicious. Unfortunately the cauliflower served with it was cold. We informed the waitress, but nothing came of it. The service was outstanding beyond that. We took a look at the regular menu, and it looks really good. We'll give it another chance if we're in the area to see a show, just in case it was an off night.

    Great service, liked the food ( even though winterlicious menues are often subpar), wine-food pairing was excellent, the place is nice and spacious. It was a pleasant surprise, will be dining at Gare de l’Est again to discover the full menu.

    The food was fine. The service was good. I was disappointed we both had to order from the Winterlicious menu because both of didn’t want that menu. I may go back when the patio is open.
