The food was very good and the value was excellent, but what really stood out was the top-notch service. From our server to the busser and the dessert server, everyone was attentive, professional, and made the evening feel special. The view was spectacular, and the atmosphere was intimate and inviting. It’s a great place to take someone when you want a memorable evening with good food, exceptional service, and a beautiful setting. Definitely a place I’d return to.

I had such a beautiful experience at Kōst Toronto celebrating my birthday! From the moment I arrived, the atmosphere was gorgeous, welcoming, and perfect for a special occasion. The service truly stood out everyone was attentive, kind, professional, and made me feel genuinely taken care of throughout my visit. My birthday celebration felt extra special because of the wonderful hospitality and attention to detail. The ambiance, food, presentation, and overall experience came together perfectly, and I left feeling happy, celebrated, and very well taken care of. A huge thank you to the Kōst team for helping make my birthday memorable! I absolutely appreciated the experience and would happily return for another special occasion. 5 stars all around! ✨

We had dinner at Oxley last night and were thoroughly impressed. It’s an unassuming spot that delivers an outstanding dining experience. The Muscovy duck breast was beautifully cooked—perfectly tender, flavourful, and one of the best duck dishes I’ve had in a long time. The service was attentive, friendly, and struck just the right balance of being there when needed without feeling intrusive. A wonderful meal from start to finish. We’ll definitely be back.

Our group of 4 were super happy with our choice for dinner at this location. Having the rooftop solarium was perfect for the slight drizzle outside as it still felt like we were on a patio. The server gave us excellent recommendations and we were happy with every dish. Great drink specials too!
