This is my favourite “Toronto steakhouse “. The steaks are well prepared and presented. The sides are a lesson for anyone who likes to cook and the wine list is well thought out. Bardi’s never disappoints.

Bardi's used to be a very good steakhouse. The waiter did not know what Rare Plus or what Chicago Rare was and said the chef wouldn't do it. I asked to see the Chef and he said unlikely he would bother. Another Waiter heard this and said, the Chef knows, not to worry. The first waiter grunted and farted and walked away. During dinner twice we heard staff swearing at each other and my guest s wife asked that they refrain from doing this in front of customers, Food quality had changed from very good on my many prior experiences, to just average at best. I don't plan to go back

Great ambiance of a classic steak house. Attentive and timely service by experienced waiters. Very good food and a nice Cabernet by the glass to accompany the meal. Always first-class, friendly service in my experience. Alex runs a great steakhouse.

When walking in, we were a little taken aback at the decor. Quite outdated. Seemed as it was the original decor. Based on the reviews, we hoped the food would be outstanding, which is maybe why the decor has not been refreshed. Food is why people go there. We were right. The food was amazing. One of the best steaks we have ever eaten. Pleasant and efficient service. Even though this place could use a cost of paint and some new seating, we will definitely go back. Like the old saying….do not judge a book by its cover.
