Barberian's Steak House

“For a bit of nostalgia, and a succulent slab of grilled cow along with the essential side of starch, forgo the chain establishments for this storied destination.”

"A Toronto landmark where wheeling, dealing, and lots of eating have gone on since 1959, Barberian's is also romantic."

"The downtown institution has earned a reputation as Toronto's quintessential steakhouse...few places in town can compete with Barberian's top-quality, dry-aged, butchered-in-house steaks"

Check your fancy cocktails at the door: Save for a mean dirty martini, this is an old-school kind of place when it comes to drinks.

"Barberian’s is anything but trendy. This family-run restaurant has been preparing some of the city’s best beef since 1959, and every Canadian prime minister since John Diefenbaker has dined here."

Art connoisseurs should be sure to check out the collection of Group of Seven paintings displayed throughout the sprawling cottage.
