Neruda Restaurant

Had the weekend buffet. Amazing. Ribs were fantastic. The smell of wood smoke welcomes you as you walk in. Server kept the buffet going after it was closed so we weren't rushed. Not the cheapest, but well worth it.

Had Birthday dinner at Neruda and the food was amazing. Our steak was perfectly cooked, the Mac and cheese was delicious. Our server was thoughtful and engaging and the desert was an incredible finish to our amazing experience.

Meal was delicious. Very nice place. I recommend to have octopus , it was very tasty and tender. Also I like home made bread in this restaurant. Service was also good. Prices are the same as in other restaurants in city. And there is good view from windows to the Lake. But I wish there were more Portuguese meals, something interesting to try. Anyway, thanks, we had good time.

First time eating at Neruda and what a privilege it was. My friends and I enjoyed a five course meal. I would definitely Recommend the dry aged rib-eye and the Neruda seafood platter. So much flavour and it all paired so well with each other. Everything you eat is from local farms. It’s very nice to know all the meat and produce we were dining on was supporting Ontario farms. Not only that but everything in Neruda has meaning behind it. The bricks of this restaurant were all refurbished, told by Nick, the owner himself. Also, they had wood burners where the steaks and meat were being cooked, just like meat was cooked in the old days. I love how they incorporated that into their restaurant and I wouldn’t be surprised if that was the secret to their unbelievably delicious steaks. I also enjoyed playing Russian Roulette with their peppers. Apparently 1 in 7 peppers were very spicy, as someone who loves spicy food I had to give this a try and I made it to 5 before I found the hot peppers. I would defiantly recommend Neruda to anyone in Toronto, my experience will be unforgettable and i can’t wait to bring others to experience the same.
