A tad at times, and they should have asked if we wanted to take home the leftover garlic bread, considering we already had our doggie cartons, no?I was there last night and service was a bit slow but it was pretty busy....

Try heating the cast iron in the oven (400F) until it's hot, then pan sear one side on the stove plate normally for like 3 mins maybe 4, flip and then stick it back in the oven for a few mins until you reach your preferred doneness.Bought the table steak (i.e. to share with the table) at Richmond Station a couple weeks ago. It really was out of this world. Toured the kitchen and then watched from a chef's table on another visit how they prepared the meal. Lots of salt, butter etc, but the killer was the idea of their beef selection. They buy a whole animal and use every bit for all the various dishes, which may not be unique, but coupled with all the other nice touches, made it the best steak dinner I've had in TO.
Best hamburger too for that matter.
Love cooking steak at home, do the costco thing, but usually pan sear them in an old cast iron pan. Pretty much means I set off the fire alarm, but it is worth it. Wish I had a restaurant grade kitchen fan, but no...
This link, and inheriting a great cast iron pan got me going. Salting the pan, and not the meat is key and one of the things I noticed Richmond Station doing.

Your fire alarm may not go off that way.
Some alarms can be really sensitive. My family home is like this, so opening windows/high fan sometimes doesn't work unfortunately. When I'm there, I find the oven/stove method does the trick.I open the windows and use the fan to prevent the fire alarm going off.

Lady fisher,
I am confused, is that part of your ad, sig line at the bottom of your post?
My mom has a very good fan in her house, and pan cooks her steaks when she's not BBQ'ing outside.Some alarms can be really sensitive. My family home is like this, so opening windows/high fan sometimes doesn't work unfortunately. When I'm there, I find the oven/stove method does the trick.
Enjoyed that place with Chloe Croft.Tom Jones Steakhouse is really good. Great steak, amazing wine list, a very old fashioned (but not stuffy) atmosphere and decor, and live piano. The pianist when I went was very good, I had a couple of requests and he played them flawlessly. Just a good time overall, and a slightly different feel than other places I've been.
of all the best places listed here, which are best for solo diners or have the best bar area? I pretty much always dine solo and prefer not to be at a table in the middle of the restaurant.
I'd like to try it.
