Black+Blue Toronto

4.86,225 Google reviews

Black+Blue Toronto is a King Street West steakhouse and lounge combining fine dining with a wine bar, sushi menu, and event space, built for both dinner service and larger private functions. It runs an annual limited-time 'Wagyu Buy Up' promotion for email subscribers, alongside its standard menu of dry-aged cuts, tomahawk, and Australian wagyu.

What people praise

  • Servers and sommeliers repeatedly named and praised for guiding menu choices
  • Tomahawk and Australian wagyu both singled out as standout dishes
  • The restaurant addressed a hair-in-food incident promptly with an apology and replacement dish
  • Atmosphere works for both special-occasion dinners and larger groups

Worth knowing

  • A promotional pre-purchased menu caused confusion for at least one table who saw other diners eating dishes they'd been told were unavailable; the restaurant says the items were part of a sold-out subscriber-only promotion and has since acknowledged the communication gap

  • Sides like truffle fries and mac and cheese get as much praise as the steak itself
  • Cocktail program called out as a genuine strength, not an afterthought

Worth knowing

  • The lowest rating of the five here, with more one- and two-star reviews in the distribution than the other four

Our take: It ranks last on this list mainly on rating consistency, not because the food falls short in most reviews. If a livelier, lounge-forward room is what you want, it still delivers on that specifically.

Watch: 5 Best Steak Houses in Toronto (2026)

How we scored these five

Rating is the live Google average. Review volume shows how many diners actually left one, ranked against the wider pool of Toronto steakhouses we pulled. Confidence weighs the rating against that volume, so a strong score on thousands of reviews outranks the same score on a few hundred. Recency checks how recently people are still reviewing. No restaurant can pay to change any of these numbers.

What does dinner at a Toronto steakhouse cost? (2026)

Steakhouse pricing in Toronto varies by how formal the room is and which cut you order. The ranges below come directly from what diners reported spending per person in their own Google reviews.

JobTypical price
Chain steakhouse dinner (Chop, The Keg)$30 - $70 per person
Upscale steakhouse dinner (Black+Blue, STK)$60 - $100+ per person
Specialty dry-aged tasting (Jacobs & Co.)$100+ per person

Price-per-person ranges as tagged by diners in their own Google reviews, July 2026.

Steakhouses across downtown Toronto

All five sit within the downtown core, clustered around King West, the Financial District, and Yorkville, so a short walk or cab ride connects most of them. Search ‘steakhouse near me’ anywhere between the waterfront and Yorkville and at least one of these five is a realistic option for tonight.

What to ask before you book

  • Do they take reservations, and how far ahead should you book on a weekend?
  • Is a specific cut dry-aged, and for how long?
  • What’s included in a prix fixe versus ordered a la carte?
  • Is there a dress code for the dining room?
  • Do they offer a lounge or bar option if you don’t want the full formal room?

Frequently asked questions

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from public Google data. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner (badge and top placement), but that never changes another business’s score or position.

How did you choose these five?

We pulled Toronto steakhouses with a real volume of Google reviews, then ranked them on rating, review count, and how recently customers were still reviewing them.

Which one is the best value?

Chop Steakhouse & Bar and The Keg both offer a lower average price per person than the other three, while still posting strong ratings.

How often is this list updated?

We last verified this data in July 2026 and refresh it periodically as ratings and review counts shift.

The bottom line

For a dependable steakhouse night without the highest price tag here, Chop Steakhouse & Bar carries the best rating on this list. If you want the full occasion, dry-aged beef and all, Jacobs & Co. is worth the splurge.
