Reviews for Writers Room Bar in Toronto, ON
Solid cocktail drinks???????? Ordered oysters, beef tartare and foie gras donuts. Highly recommend the foie gras donuts. We also... got the best view of the bar overlooking the Toronto city skyline. Bring a jacket or coat at night if you want to sit outside bythe rooftop. Read more
It?s my third time having dinner at writers room. I?ve had great experiences before so this time I brought my friends from New... York there. The view was still breathtaking, however, we were really disappointed with everything else. First, the service wasextremely slow. We sat there for 1.5 hours without getting our main course so we checked with one of the servers and she told usour dishes will be served shortly. But it took 30 more minutes to come. The bar was half empty at that time so we didn?t knowwhat made it that long. We were very patient at that time until our steak come. The first pictures shows the steak I had in Mayat writers room. It was very juicy and tender and it came with baked mini potatoes with special sauce. So I ordered it againthis time. The steak in other pictures is what we got this time. It looks very sad and dry. Does it look like medium rare? Isthat even steak? It tastes like beef jerky. Also, it came with fries instead of the baked potatoes and the plate was smaller.Just?everything about it was not right. Quality was much lower. The drinks were fine but won?t come again. I had really goodimpressions but it?s all gone now. Read more
This is a great place for a date or hanging out with friends over a few drinks. Great view of the city skyline and the interior... decor just screams for photo ops in every corner. The service was great, attentive and professional. Drinks were quite strongand I loved that they came with popcorn, olives and almonds. Read more
Excellent food and service by Sri. Our favourites were the foie gras puffs, uni toast, and southern fried maitake mushrooms. The... Korean fried chicken lettuce wraps were served on a 3-tier tower. Our least favourite was beef tartare. Read more
Superb environment for drinks and gatherings! The service is great and the cocktails while pricy are sort of the norm now. Make... sure you get a table that gives you the great south Toronto skyline view - you won't regret it! Read more
Such amazing environment, one of those places I would not have known if a friend didn?t recommend, great balcony view of the... city. Don?t go when you?re hungry tho food portions are tiny, great place to grab drinks with friends Read more
Writers room is a hidden gem in Toronto for sure. Really stunning views with great cocktails and ambience. This place is not... cheap at all but I wouldn?t expect different from a sky bar in the Park Hyatt. Highly recommend the ?A good day? and ?WalkingDream? cocktails. Truly unique. The food was decent too. The fried chicken and lamb tartare were awesome. I don?t recommend thetater tots. Giving a 4* instead of 5 just because the food was really pricey for what it was but otherwise everything aboutthis place was awesome! Read more
This is a good place to hang out with friends over some drinks and a good view of the city. They have a good selection of... drinks, I primarily had some whisky (Oban) and tequila (Clase Azul) when I visited as well as a couple cocktails (PerpetualMotion & Age of Mass Culture). The food was good as well. Tried the Korean fried chicken with some fries with truffles. It is onthe pricier side but would recommend others visit it. Read more
