Very near Union Station so a great place to visit if you're just back from a long trip. The steak frites was delicious - the steak was cooked spot on. The staff are friendly .

Jack Shell

First time ever here. As an American looking for great bar food with a touch of Canadian flair, Jack Astor's was perfect. Steam Whistle on draught was an added bonus. Deelish. Great service too.

Roberta Moscato

It's a very beautiful place where to eat. The staff is very good, Will expecially... I suggest to try the steaks (Classic and Michigan ones).

Dunstan Yap

Great poutine with super pleasant presentation. Average burger with good Canadian Angus patty but can improve with better quality vegetables .

I visited Toronto back in February and thought I'd check this place out since it seemed nice. Everything was going well until some drunkin fool tried to attack me with a fork. I'm not going back.

Jack's Cheese Garlic Pan Bread is must. Sprinkle pepper on it. Little overpriced though.

Tiffany Dang

Good selection of apps and drinks. However, service is just terrible. Every single visit is the same ^%#*, expect a wait for everything!

Kim L.

If you're a fan of red velvet , you must try the Jack Louis. A little sweet but so stupidly good.

Martina Ivsak

The chopsticks chicken salad is really good and so are the nachos . If you're feeling especially adventurous, order a raspberry iceberg. It won't disappoint.
