King Street Social Kitchen & Bar

I had a truly disappointing experience. The food was inedible—overcooked, poorly seasoned, and just not up to standard. However, the worst part of the experience was the service. Our server, Raul, was incredibly rude and dismissive, making the whole meal even more uncomfortable. We felt unwelcome and ignored. This was a wasted visit, and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone looking for a pleasant dining experience.

Enjoyed the salmon dish, very tasty. Our reservations were at 5:30 so it was very quiet so we had lots of attention. Service was excellent as well.

I went for dinner on 2nd August at King Street Social Restaurant and Bar. I had made a reservation for 5 people at 7 pm with Sabina the hostess and informed her that I am an employee at Hyatt Place Toronto/Mississauga Centre and provided her my GID number. I confirmed with her if I would be getting a 50% discount if I come to Dine in only and she said yes and mentioned she would inform the Server for the day as well to make sure we have a good evening. When I went in and finished dining, I informed politely checked with the server (Raul) if he was aware of the discount and had applied it to the bill. He mentioned that as per the policy we need to be staying at the hotel property to avail the discount. I informed him that Sabina had confirmed that we could avail it even if we are not staying at the hotel. We still went ahead and made the payment for the $218.09. After he noticed that we didn’t tip on the machine, he got frustrated tore out the payment slip and hit it on the table expressing anger. We were going to tip in cash but after seeing the reaction we changed our decision. While leaving my friends told him “Thank you, Good night”, he ignored them. When I told him “Thank you, Good night”, he looked at him with an angry face and continued to clear the tables. This morning, When I spoke to the hostess (from last evening), she mentioned that after we left, Raul went to her to inform that we only came to dine because of the discount. This is very insulting and disrespectful.

I would suggest this place as a good date spot. Looks great, quiet and can have a conversation. Tucked away in the lower level of the hotel with a backdrop of a waterfall fountain. Not sure why it is not more popular than it is. Staff was very kind and nice. Menu is limited but cooked very well and food was fresh. We had a fixed menu experience. Appetizers were fantastic. We had the broccoli cheese soup and onion soup(a tad on the saltier side) Chicken was flavored extremely well and tender. Salmon was over cooked but a decent quantity. The plating was gorgeous and alot of care was put into the presentation of the dishes. Desserts wow. Will come here just for this! Both Cheesecake and tiramisu were fantastic

We were advised to make a reservation in the evening, but arriving at 7:30pm we apparently missed the rush as people left for the theatre. So it was quiet to start. We were warmly welcomed by the host Shahnaz and waited on attentively by Tannaz. We decided to go with the Prix Fixe menu using a Groupon and were not disappointed. There was a perfect rest between each course starting with French onion soup, salmon on a bed of stir-fried vegetable and accompanied by a glass of Chardonnay. Dessert was apple tart a la mode. All in all, a very enjoyable two hours and our interaction with the staff made it more so.

Loved the place! Visited king street social on my birthday. Chef Ilanchei was wonderful and made beautiful dishes. He also prepared a special dessert to celebrate my birthday. Even the server Ronnie was amazing. Everyone went above and beyond to give us a memorable experience. I definitely recommend this place for any special occasion or dinner with your loved ones.

We stayed at the Hyatt Regency Toronto Hotel on King Street West Downtown and so we decided to try the buffet breakfast in the restaurant just located in the basement of the hotel. It is available until 10:30am. They have a great variety. The food quality was high. Everything was very fresh and the service was excellent too. It was quite pricey for a breakfast but given the high standard it was totally worth it. I do recommend it if you happen to stay in this hotel or nearby.

Not coming back. I don’t know if it’s because the dinner we had was a Groupon deal or it was supposed to be like that, my bf and I were very disappointed. As you can see the soup was sitting in the kitchen too long, so it had a layer of “skin” when they served it to us. Presentation: 1/5. Beets were burned, they were completely black. I couldn’t tell it was a beet... and speed of service was very slow. We waited for 45 minuets to get our starters. And it was not busy at all. After starters, we had to wait another 45 minutes to get our steak and trout. Fish was dry and over cooked. Steak was excellent! 8/10. Staff was standing right between two tables and giving me a butt when he was talking to another table.... 🤦🏻‍♀️ For those who need to park, make sure you park under tiff, it s only $7 after 5pm on weekdays. Food: 5/10 Environment: 8/10 Value: 3/10 Location/ convenience: 10/10 Services: 4.5/10
