The worst service ever, waiters are rude!!!!! Food reduced portions not worth the price. Charging high rate tips. And asking you to change to the high rate tips that they feel they deserve, even if you are not satisfied with the service. Won’t go again.

Food is great, I loved all the table side cooking dishes as well since you get some entertainment with the food. All the steaks I’ve tried (tried almost every option on the menu) is superb. Only food item I did not like was the Caesar salad. The sauce is made table side and used to be amazing, but lately it’s been tasting bitter.Atmosphere also amazing inside no doubt about it. The tables that are backed up against a wall is kind of tight for the seats against the wall.Service unfortunately has been poor. I must say it used to be really good, everything you would expect at a high end steakhouse for spending $100+ per person. But for our last 2 visits, the server looked very judgmental when we ordered our food. We asked to split 2 salads amongst 4 people (we do this every time we come here because we get other appetizers too so we can’t finish a portion ourselves). They never had a problem with this before but last 2 time we visited the server looked disgusted that we were sharing, and made comments to other severs which we clearly can hear. This server isn’t even new and I recognized him from other visits so I’m not sure what’s changed. Or if he has an opinion maybe he should say it to our face? Then my parents (in their 60s) proceeds to share an entree. My mom normally does not eat dinner so ordering appetizers for her is enough. So she did not order an entree herself and just had a few bites of my dad’s steak sides (not even steak, this is how little she eats now). Again, we do this every time we come here and for some reason, the last time the server decided to charge her a fee for sharing entree? I understand this fee if a group of 4 comes in and just order 1 or 2 things. But we ordered MANY appetizers and drinks, plus other entrees and desserts. Our bill comes out to well over $100 per person every single visit. The server also did not mention this when we ordered and it came to us as a shock since we never got charged this before. Lastly, when we asked for the bill, the server came back and practically threw the bill folder at us on the table. It was super rude and ruined the dinner. And I definitely was very unhappy to spend so much and get this kind of experience. In my mind, when you’re spending at this rate for dinner, not only are you there for delicious food (which is still priority for a restaurant), you’re also paying for the above standard atmosphere and service. That’s why I can only give it 3 stars and unfortunately would not go back again. I’d rather spend my money somewhere else where I know they will treat me nicely.

Service was absolutely terrible, went here today for my birthday celebration in the private room and opted in for the open bar and simply asked for a magarita. Was immediately shut down by the waiter with a “NO” which i found super disrespectful. Expected the bare minimum for a steak house like this and recived horrible service. Will not be coming back ever.

Came here for Valentine’s Day. We booked a month in advance and were only able to get a 8pm seating time. The atmosphere was great, they even gave me a rose. The table side Caesar salad is a must order. The first time I enjoy a salad like it was the main course! For the main, we order the 24oz dry aged porterhouse to share. There is an extra $10 sharing cost but it was well worth it. We ordered rare plus and it was cooked to perfection. My only complaint was the Creme brûlée, the top was not fully melted and it did not have crispy caramel top. The Creme was great but you can feel the sugar grains in your mouth. We told our server and he was kind enough to give us another but it had the same issue possibly because they use a coarser sugar.

Okay, so I can’t gush enough about this place. The restaurant itself was simply gorgeous. The rich, luxurious colours felt so extravagant while also so cozy. The service was next level, so much more than I expected. Tula and George made our experience incredible, we were blessed to be served by them. Tom (one of the owners and the man with the incredible hair) was so sweet and gave me a rose at the end. The food was phenomenal, every bit of it. We ordered the escargot which was unbelievably good and they didn’t smother it in cheese which I was so grateful for. The Caesar salad was the best I’ve ever had. Tula recommended the Steak Dianne and the Banana Foster for me. Both were out of this world. My significant other got the peppercorn steak and was in love with it. Everything was made table side and was terribly thrilling to watch. Big thank you again to everyone who made our night fantastic!

My wife and I recently dined at Peters Fine Dining, driven by our appreciation for classic steakhouses such as Caesars in Calgary, Barbarian in downtown Toronto, and Keens in New York City. To our surprise, Peters Fine Dining measured up to these renowned establishments.Choosing a Tuesday night for our visit, we easily found parking in the back. The captivating old-school decor upon entering immediately caught my eye. Welcomed by numerous hostesses and waiters, we were quickly seated, albeit with a friendly request to remove my hat. One notable critique is the inconsistency in delivering a 'fine dining service.' For instance, being initially led by the bartender rather than the host felt somewhat casual, and our waiter missed the customary introduction. Despite a quiet evening, the absence of a full bar for sitting stood out. Nevertheless, the waitstaff, impeccably dressed in full suits, maintained a commendable level of formality.Our drink choices, including a martini, negroni, and diet coke, were well-crafted, but the prices—$7 for the coke, $23 for the martini and $21 for the negroni—felt a bit steep. Additionally, the martini could have been chilled more thoroughly, especially for the price.While the steak menu leaned toward the pricier side, the cost was justified by the quality of the steak, service, and the overall upscale dining experience. Opting for the 16 Oz ribeye cooked medium rare, I relished a perfectly prepared, 45-day-aged delight with well-seasoned vegetables.We also indulged in the prime rib, accompanied by mashed potatoes and horse radish, along with a complimentary side of garlic bread, albeit slightly overdone. For dessert, we shared a generously portioned, well-caramelized creme brulee.In summary, Peters Fine Dining positions itself as a higher-priced establishment, justifiable for the quality of its food, though the same can't be said for the drinks. While not flawless, it stands out as a distinctive institution in the northeast GTA, where fine dining options are limited. I would rate this place 4.4/5 stars.Parking: There is a reasonable amount of parking available behind the restaurant. You can access it off of Grandview Boulevard.

Had my bday dinner here once again and would you happen to know it ... IT'S STILL ONE OF MY FAVE RESTOS IN THE GTA. I came with my family, my bro's wife and my gf.Yes the price is mighty hefty, but for special occasions this is one of my personal recommendations.I made the rookie mistake of downing like 10 slices of that delicious, complimentary garlic bread. It's so buttery and so garlicky. OMG.I've narrowed down the scallops and oysters rockefeller as the best appetizers in my opinion (having tried most of them at some point). We also ordered a french onion soup to try for the first time. If I'm being honest, the soup was a lil too rich for us. In fact, it didn't really have enough onion taste (although the onions were cooked well and soft). It was so rich to the point that we thought it tasted more like beef gravy rather than soup. Halfway through the soup, my bro and I decided to use it as au jus dipping sauce for our beef LOL.The REAL showstopper is the ceasar salad though. Done tableside with all the works (egg yolk, anchovies, some tabasco, the good stuff). The server spends like 10-15 mins making it from scratch. I would say the salad is a MUST ORDER for anyone coming to Peter's (you might be surprised at the price but TRUST ME it's THAT delicious).I still opted for my usual, 24 oz ribeye cooked medium rare. Aged for at least 45 days. Perfect edge to edge doneness. Super tender meat. Bone-in. OUUUUUH YEEEE BABY. I have yet to find a better steak in the GTA. I also love that they have an additional server who comes around and asks you how much sour cream and butter you want on your potato.This time, my gf opted to try the 6 oz center cut beef tenderloin. I thought the blue cheese would be too salty on top but the fig sauce was sweet and tangy so it actually balanced out the saltiness of the blue cheese really well!I got myself a Planter's Punch cocktail and it was ok. I think I much prefer the whisky sour they made for me on my last visit. It was much more flavourful.For dessert, on top of my free birthday slice, we decide to try the crepes suzette instead of our usual bananas foster. I must admit, while it was made very well and the tableside show was awesome, it was not my cup of tea. I think we will stick to the bananas foster from now on haha.I would be remiss if I didn't shoutout the amazing service throughout the night. I forgot our main server's name (not Tom the one with long hair but the other one in a suit with short hair ... I think, his name was Chris? SORRY IF I FORGOT). Nice gentleman and really funny guy. Had jokes for days. The rest of the staff also attended to us throughout the night. Topped off our water frequently.It may have increased its prices slightly because of inflation, but my god am I SO GLAD that they haven't dropped their legendary standards. Great food combined with great service. I'm pretty sure they recognize me now whenever January rolls around for my bday LOL.
We came here last night for a family members birthday and I can easily say it was an amazing experience and meal.My steak was perfectly done, the veggies were perfectly seasoned, my Caesar salad was great, and the service of every single interaction was wonderful and extremely kind, and Peter was lovely. The garlic bread was to die for, perfectly garlicky.The outside of the building doesn’t show that this place is fine dining, so it may go unnoticed. Don’t sleep on it!

Here's what you want to get here. Caesar salad to start (ask for extra garlic in the dressing).Steak Dianne, medium-rare, for your main (the sauce is to die for) with a baked potato as the side, a little bit of horse radish on the side, and maybe a plate of mushrooms for the table + one bottle of red wine for every 2 people. And finish off the night with a Monte Cristo coffee.Trust me, it will be the best meal of your life. Everything made fresh table-side and it's absolute perfection. Doeesnt need anything else. The wait staff here are real pros. If you order what I order, they will actually be making most of your food.
