Harbour Street Fish Bar

Great place friendly service , definitely recommend coming here.

The bar waitress from Ireland was great, but as two cdn with Indian origin, the minute we walked in the histes didn't catch her name but Blonde curly hair just stared at us up amd down like we are not allowed in here. Trust .e I know when someone doesn't want us around being g colored. All others in establishment were Caucasian candians but the attitude to say oh we are full with reservations when palace was empty as place opend at 3pm and we walked in 5 mins after that. We came to eat only and leave to come back to Toronto. Hear good things about fish and chips but not that good. I will never come back to this place e and will let all my colored firemds the experience we got. Oh by the way another host then told her to let us in but seates us far in one corner close to the kitchen.

We were hungry and gave noticed this behavior b3fore when away from. The GTA but this was by far the most noticeable.

I like yo always give good reviews but this really passed us off.

The actual bar wireless was great and very gracious and talkative but the original hostess who was smiling and happy with other customers was completely different the minute she saw us

If you like average food, terrible service, and waiting for a long time for your meal, then this is the place for you!!!
When people who were seated after us began receiving their food, we became suspicious that our order had been forgotten. We asked our server about it, and her eyes danced around like she realized that she had not placed our order with the kitchen.
Shortly after, a manager came out with an unconvincing explanation. I said something like, "No worries, but seriously, did you forget about our order?" When she responded defensively, I thought, Hmmmm, sounds like a guilty response.
After this, we were treated like we were the problem. Our whole dining experience took just under 3 hours, and this with a young child. Nothing was taken off our bill to express regret about what happened.

This place is fantastic. Heard good things from local friends, we're usually in the area when they're not open but got to try it last night. The halibut fish and chips were killer and some of the best coleslaw ever. Friend raved about the smash burger and they were right. One of the best burgers ever, and weird that fish place has an awesome burger, but they do. Staff were really friendly. Everyone seemed like they knew each other so assume this place has a lot of regs. We had some drinks at the bar after our meal and everyone was really friendly. Will definitely be back!

Really enjoyed the excellent music and party atmosphere, small dance floor but generally sufficient.

Food was ok. The soup was very salty, steak was slightly overcooked for medium but tasty, seafood pasta was fine.

Service. Hostess was a bit unfriendly but I can understand she has a tough job. Our waitress was very friendly and helpful. Food took a long time since the place was packed.

Washrooms: 2 females and 1 male, clean, 4/5.

Tip: go there for the music and pay for the $10 music appreciation charge.

Absolutely delicious halibut fish and chips! Waitress was very kind and friendly. There was a $10 per person fee if you wanted to stay and enjoy the live music since it was seniors night when we went but we opted to not as it wasn't our scene. The music was pretty nice though with a nice cozy atmosphere.

Sue, our Server, as well as the Hostess, were absolutely awesome! They’re a dog friendly restaurant and were very accommodating with our puppy who was in training. Great atmosphere, excellent service, and great food. Recommend 1000%!!

Very disappointed. We came for dinner, asked to sit inside. The woman at the front seemed more interested in talking to her friends coming in then remembering where we asked to sit (tried to bring us outside). Gave us 3 menus for 4 people. Sat at a booth and waited for 15 minutes - no water, no server, no “we’ll be right with you”. Place was empty so being busy was not an excuse. We flagged down another server to ask where our server was, and she seemed flustered and tried to help (not her fault that we didn’t get served). At that point we left and had a much better time elsewhere. Didn’t get to even try the food, but based on service alone would absolutely not be back. Reading other reviews it seems we did not have a unique experience. The ambiance was also awkward, but that’s because the place was basically empty other than those at the bar. I’m the first one to defend service industry places and give them a lot of grace, and I tip well even if some of the experience is bad - so the fact that I’m writing a negative review says a lot.

We went to Harbour street fish bar last month for lunch when there was an open mic. Having travelled for skiing from Toronto, we wanted to try a local joint. We were really disappointed by the service. The server practically kicked us out of the restaurant when we were not done with our food. She took the plate from in front of me when there was still food left, without asking if I'm done eating and packed it in a to go box and brought it back with the machine for us to pay!!! We did not ask for the bill??? How is this appropriate? After we pay she says you're from out of town? Have a safe drive! We did not want to leave but we were kicked out basically

First of all we had the most amazing friendly server Lisa whom provided excellent service with a beautiful smile thru her mask. She simply added to make our 3 generation family vacation, even better.

All the various food; appies, mains & dessert were absolutely perfectly plated and delicious 😋.
