A polished Canadian restaurant on the 54th floor of the TD Bank Tower, combining broad city and lake views with contemporary regional cooking. It is best suited to a business lunch, celebratory dinner, or a visitor who values the setting as much as the menu.
Why It Belongs on the List
Canoe’s defining feature is its 54th-floor position above the Financial District, with views across downtown and Lake Ontario. The kitchen presents contemporary Canadian cooking through seasonal and regional ingredients in a formal dining room. Michelin currently lists Canoe as a recommended restaurant; older claims that it holds a star should not guide the booking. Reserve ahead, request—but do not assume—a window table, and allow time to navigate the TD Bank Tower before your seating.
