We recently dined here for a family birthday celebration. We ordered several happy hour appetizers, including the meatballs, calamari, and fried zucchini—all of which were enjoyable. The roasted chicken, however, was somewhat tough and less impressive. Overall, it would be 4-star experience before I got my bill. While the overall experience was pleasant, we were disappointed to find that we had been charged for multiple bottles of water. The final bottle was opened and served without our request or consent, and we only noticed the charge after the bill had been settled. We didn't even drink and we didn't need more water. Although this may seem like a minor issue, it left a negative impression and unfortunately overshadowed an otherwise enjoyable evening. I see other reviews mentioning about the bottled water so I am sure it was not an accident. Clear communication is everything this is not acceptable. Regrettably, due to this experience, we are unlikely to return.

We came here for my friends birthday and had a great time. Originally we sat at the patio but ended up switching to the bar indoors (they were very kind and accommodated us inside because the restaurant was full) our server/ bartender Mark was amazing ! The espresso martini was great , the food was delicious (the oysters were good , tuna tartar was delicious the grilled calamari was unreal , zucchini chips were good as well. If you want good food and a vibe check them out but would definitely suggest sitting inside they had fire dancers and the decor was very tulum vibes.

Came to celebrate our grad dinner with my girls and we left with no complaints! The food was so delicious, loved the calamari and the lamb chops. They even gave us a little complimentary dessert to celebrate. Loved the little show as well with the dancers! Such a vibe

Loved our dinner at Myth Steakhouse! We ordered the filet mignon, lamb chops, ribeye steak, and short-rib steak — every bite was perfectly cooked and full of flavour. The ribeye steak could have been better. The baby gem and beetroot salads were fresh and delicious, and the Myth dip selection and beef carpaccio were great starters. The tea came in beautiful pots, which we really appreciated, and the service was warm and attentive throughout the evening. We ended the meal with baklava and ice cream — it was okay, but not somethingspecial. A fantastic dining experience overall — highly recommend!

It’s absolutely beautiful inside. Everything notable about this establishment can be attributed to the lovely atmosphere and architecture. The wait time is considerable, it took like 40 minutes for them to take our order. Otherwise, the service was good. The food was pretty good, but nothing crazy. We have had better Greek food elsewhere for much cheaper. We ordered the fried cheese dish which had an incredible presentation provided by the waiter lighting it on fire and it is served with some flatbread (which did not taste like much it was quite underwhelming). We also got the beef kebab dish and the meat was very delicious and juicy. Since we were celebrating an anniversary, they were really sweet and brought a complimentary dessert that was quite tasty. Ultimately, you’re paying for the luxe and ambiance. It’s definitely a nice place but I would not necessarily recommend their food.

Atmosphere was everything here. Interior was just done beautifully, well crafted and thought out. Food was very good as well. The sea bass was amazing, steak was cooked perfectly. Highly recommend the dip platter as well, the fetta one was sooo good. And the baklava with ice-cream is a must!

Stopped by for happy hour and honestly had such a great time. The drinks were really good and easily some of the best I’ve had in a while.. and the service was just as impressive. Super friendly and on point without being over the top. Also, random but super important note: the hand soap in the bathroom smells amazing. If anyone from the team sees this can anyone drop the soap brand, please? We’re all wondering 😅

The interior design of the restaurant and bar area is truly beautiful and it’s a nice place for a date or friends gathering. We made a reservation for a Friday dinner and the place was packed. There were literally no available tables. They have a 2-hour seating limit policy and since our food took longer to get prepared, we were asked to move to the bar, which had a nice view. We chose “Myth Experience Menu” which included 11 different options spread across 3 main courses, plus 2 dessert options for $100, which was a great price. We really enjoyed our food and the atmosphere. The only thing we didn’t enjoy was the dessert which was just fine.

I love all Mediterranean food, so I came to Myth to celebrate my birthday on a Sunday night. There was a a nice crowd, with several different celebrations taking place, but the restaurant was not overly crowded. Upon reviewing the menu, it was a pleasant surprise to find they had a pre fixed Sunday dinner option available, which was perfect for me! It was $65 a person for several courses to share family style. The service was great and the vibe was just right. Between the music and the stunning decor in the place, I was very impressed (there were some nice areas for photo ops as well). I also appreciated how the meal was paced out. I didn't feel rushed to scoff things down and hurry to leave. My favorite food of the night was the Greek salad and the roasted potatoes. The chicken entree was cooked perfectly, but flavor profile was a little lacking. The spanakopita was very heavy on the spinach, which I did not prefer. They also give a complimentary celebration dessert, which was a very nice touch for my birthday. On another visit to Toronto, I will definitely make time to return.

Myth was fire!! Me and bae went for her birthday dinner and honestly I was so pleased. Let's start with the ambiance. This is the first time since visiting Greece that I felt like a place not in Greece for the vibe right. I mean this place was jumping and in Greece they party. Service was great. My glass was never empty. They brought out the food in just the right intervals so that I didn't feel rushed. The food itself was vey very tasty. The only thing that we ordered that I didn't love was the spanakopita. The flavor was great, I just like the spinach to cheese ratio was a bit off. Way too much spinach. The roasted chicken also could have had a little more flavor but the cook was perfect. Otherwise, the food was delicious. I will say you get what you pay for and this was money well spent. I highly recommend.

The atmosphere from the beginning is relaxing and comfortable. For appetizers you must start with the Saganaki (or 3), which comes with the flaming presentation. OPA! The octopus is done just right, great flavor and perfectly prepared. The meal came family style. The WAGYU SOUVLAKI is very flavorful. The Lamb Kabob is tender and makes you wish there was more, even though it comes with a nice portion size. Then we finished it off with an amazing slice of cheesecake. This place is not inexpensive, but treat yourself.

Myth is a beautiful restaurant serving meze platters, seafood, and flaming Greek cheese. The restaurant is decked out floor to ceiling with accents from Greece, evoking those same coastal lounge vibes. While the restaurant and the patrons can seem a tad pretentious, the food is good and the atmosphere is fancy.

Myth's mezze platter ($35) consists of a collection of dishes, and I love that it showcases some lesser-known dips. Of course, there's the popular hummus, which was thick and filling, but the mezze also featured a silky smooth taramasalata that has an umami saltiness to it from the cured roe. Warning to vegetarians, if I hadn't been told there was fish in the dip, I would have never known. The roe adds a brininess to the dip without any fishiness. If you enjoy feta, try the tirokafteri dip that uses the cheese as the base but has a hit of peppers that creates an unexpected spiciness. It goes great with the soft warm pita or smeared onto the crudite given it had such a flavourful salty kick. While a bit cheesy (pun intended), the cheer of "opa!" before setting the ouzo on fire is what makes saganaki ($22) such a staple. The kefalograviera cheese was oh so gooey, salty, and lightened with just a hint of lemon. I just wished there was more than one piece of toasted bread to go with it. It's not everyday you find raw fish at a Greek restaurant. Myth uses slices of yellowtail hamachi in the magiatiko ($28) adorned with an olive tapenade that was too overpowering. If anything, the dollop of creamy taramasalata (the same fish roe dip featured in the mezze) was more than salty enough. Still, it was beautifully plated and a great light starter. The arancini was good... less creamy than an Italian version, but also didn't leave me feeling as full. It was smartly paired with a feta mousse, which added a touch of sauciness to the risotto but didn't detract from the crunchy crust. Surprisingly, I really enjoyed the beetroot carpaccio, so much so that I'd prefer it to the beef counterpart. The sweet thinly slice beets were enhanced with tangy yogurt and a yellow beet mousse. Because there were so many creamy ingredients, the roasted pecans worked nicely to add a contrasting texture. Sadly, the dish isn't on their regular menu, which really should be included as it's a hit. This is a long review, visit Gastro World for the rest.

Looking for a unique Greek eat? A bit more upscale at King St, Myth serves sharing platters at this gorgeous new location. The food was amazing, I'm normally not a fan of Greek food but I thought everything was seasoned and tasted so good. The drinks did not disappoint. Someone at the table ordered a specialty cocktail and it came with a cute fortune! The area and the food itself are very photo worthy. The service was great and the waiters were very helpful when it came to recommendations on the menu. Although the plates are meant to be shared, it can get very pricey! At the time of going, two skewers were $25! They also only take one form of payment. It was a nice experience but I'm not too sure I can justify the price for some dishes that I think the proportions are too small for a group. Perhaps if you go with less people it will make it more worth.

Overall the food/drinks/ambiance were great. The service level however, was subpar at best. The servers were tending to the larger party in the corner to the left of us and did not once ask if we needed anything or ask if the food was ok. We never received a single quality check throughout our entire meal and we had to ask for water. Furthermore, when paying for our bill, our server was quite rude and did not give us the opportunity to request a copy of the receipt as he quickly walked away and stormed off

Visited this restaurant tonight and can confidently say I will not be going back. We were greeted by a very monotone hostess. We were one of the first groups to enter the place. The hostess proceeds to bring us to the back of the restaurant behind the bar to an isolated table off to the side. We then asked to be sat somewhere else; she first denied us the area to the right because there was a bigger party coming. We again had to ask to be seated at the area closer to the entrance without her offering any possible suggestions on her own. She left for about five minutes while we were left standing there, and brought us to the area we requested without saying much. As we dined, we noticed that no one was being brought to our initial seating area and everyone was immediately brought to the area we asked to be seated at. This was shocking to us because we had asked her on the way out whether or not you needed a reservation to be sat there (you did not, there were many walk ins). We felt as if we were purposefully sat off to the side for whatever preempted misconception she had of us. The food was also not up to par with what I was expecting, I would listen to the other low rated reviews and reconsider visiting this place if you're looking for good food and adequate service.

We came here in a small group for dinner recently, after it was rebuilt. We definitely enjoyed our meal! We had a tasting menu, and it was tasty! Loved the dips, meats and vegetables - all were excellent. My only criticism about the food is more about the drinks. The cocktails were expensive, and just fine - nothing special. But that's fairly typical for a trendy Toronto restaurant. The ambiance of the restaurant is interesting, and I'm not sure I loved it. The crowd was a bit showy and over-the-top. Did we need the dancing girls? It was also VERY loud - I found it difficult to hear my friends at times. But it was lively! Overall, I enjoyed my time here. I would recommend giving it a try.

I went here for a birthday dinner and had such an incredible time. Their plates are meant to be shared family style so I recommend going with a large group and splitting a few dishes. We ordered the traditional dip selection, myth chips, and the smoked aubergine. The myth tips are a must - with very crispy zucchini! The interior is also very cozy with candle lit lighting.

We had an amazing experience at Myth. The food and beverages were amazing. Food very timely and so fresh. The food had that amazing Greek / Mediterranean Flair. The highlight of the evening was our server Adonis - he was informative, friendly , and loved his job!! A huge shout out to wonderful Must when in Toronto ! #TorontoMichelinworthy

Long story short: Delicious, fresh and expensive, but in my opinion, worth it! The food was prepared well and staff were kind and attentive, caught only a slight snag with their poor scheduling/overbooking. Long story ...long: I've been here twice. Both times, it was delicious, but expensive. The first time I went with friends, the highlight was the scallop risotto (which is no longer an item on the menu), but it was the best scallops I have ever had on King Street. The second time, I went with my family. We made reservations for 4 on a Tuesday evening. We arrived slightly early, so we understood when they told us to wait either at the bar or outside. We opted for outside since 4 people waiting at the bar is a bit awkward, and waited for our reservation time. After checking in, we were told again that our table wasn't ready. We ended up waiting more than 30 minutes past our reservation time on a special celebratory night, among other patrons who also had to wait. The hosts did their best, but couldn't provide clarity as to how long we had to wait. When we finally got our booth (a large one at that), the manager was hospitable and accommodating and brought us mezes and flaming saganaki free of charge. A big thank you to him for handling it well, definitely rectified the situation, softening our hangry hearts. I'm hoping this overbooking is a one-off problem. The food was great and fresh! We ordered the grilled octopus, horiatiki salad to share, grilled sea bass, chicken souvlaki, and slow-cooked lamb shoulder. The waitress also offered to de-bone the fish. She was so skilled and quick! It was great to watch. The decor and ambiance is lovely, with dim, golden lighting. The staff are kind and attentive. Our waters never ran out. We ended our night happy and full. I do recommend a visit!

Myth is a gorgeous restaurant, I loved the design! We had a last minute reservation and were seated at the bar, which was fine. We started with ordering drinks, we asked a first bartender for suggestions but he couldn't get what my friend wanted so we asked another one and bingo! She was happy with her drink, me not so much. We ordered a few items from the menu and honestly, it was ok, but not as good/flavoured as what I expected it to be. I really wanted to love this place, especially since I'm the one who suggested it, service and vibe were great but the food, which is the most important thing to me, wasn't that great. 3,5/5

I had the opportunity to visit this much discussed place for a corporate event. We had a set menu that did include a few of their more popular regular dishes - overall, the food was satisfactory, but not extraordinary. The meze platter and spanakopita were flavourful and delicious, but the horiatiki salad, drenched in oil and still managing to be rather bland, was less so. The steak received mixed reviews as apparently it was almost raw at one of our tables. The drinks were a delightful addition to the meal - lots of creativity in their cocktails menu! - but a fairly expensive one. Service was exceptional (as it should be, given the service charge of $1.5K in addition to gratuities), and waitstaff were remarkably attentive and accommodating. Of course, this restaurant is one of those most known for its extravagant decor and theatrical ambiance, on which it certainly delivered. The unfortunate downside is that the music got progressively louder and the lights progressively dimmer as the night went on, making it exceedingly difficult to hold a conversation. I would only come back here if someone else is paying. :P

Had a double date at this spot and absolutely loved it! Amazing ambience, beautiful decor, great music & delicious food! Our waiter, Mark, was great & everything here felt like a celebration. We started the evening with delicious Paper Plane cocktails & ordered sone starters: - Shrimps Sti Skara (Grilled Tiger Shrimp + Romesco + Grilled Lemon) SO delicious! Perfectly cooked & plump & wonderful flavour! - Flaming Saganaki (Kefalograviera cheese + grilled Lemon + Oregano + Pita) Very good & who doesn't love a blazing entrance?!? - Tónos (Yellowfin Tuna + Pumpkin Seed Purée + Dried Black Olives + eVOO + sea salt) Delicious & so fresh! - Beef Carpaccio (AAA Beef + Whipped Kefalograviera + Citrus Salt + Watercress) Don't eat meat but everyone loved it! - Horiatiki Salata (Tomato + Cucumber + Bell Pepper + Red Onion + kalamata Olives + Oregano + Feta) Delicious! My boyfriend & I shared the SALT-BAKED LAVRAKI (Sea Bass Baked in a crust of sea salt + EVOO) which was not only beautifully presented but absolutely sublime! So delicious. We also did the broccolini + lemon potatoes which were also amazing. Such an incredible meal. Had such a wonderful time! Can't wait to come back soon.

This place is alllllll about the ambiance. You walk in and get confused thinking you made a reservation for a spa appointment from the smell at the entrance to the super cool and relaxing decor. I would emulate my home after this place! Very trendy for the "influencers" to take some cute pics, and the food is really good. We ordered two off the menu bowls of tzatziki because we can eat it by the spoonful. The zucchini chips were my favorite and my filet mignon kabobs we're also great, but definitely not worth $50. Eek! The staff all dressed in the same short, tank top dress and it was very chic/cute. Their service was a nice pace and the ladies were sweet. I would come back again, for sure.

Myth is a really nice and upscale Greek dining located on King Street. Service is great and decoration is modern. We ordered 25oz ribeye steak and lobster yiouvetsi, and Saragli for dessert. The 25oz bone in ribeye is a very good deal. I admit that the quality might not be the very best, but at a price of $95, I certainly have no complaint. Lobster yiousetsi is basically lobster risotto in Greek style. The sauce is very sour, it is definitely not my favorite. The half lobster is fresh for sure. I prefer Italian seafood risotto over it at all times. Finally my favorite dessert Baklava with pistachio ice cream. It is the best Greek dessert for me at all times, no substitution so far. I certainly recommend Myth to everyone who loves to try Greek food!

A MUST-TRY! Myth has always been on my list of must-try restaurants for the longest time and finally the day had come and gone. My friends and I made reservation for Myth a week out to ensure that we had a spot on the day of. It was a very positive and interactive experience with the staff members, the atmosphere, certain food and drink selections. Everything from the menu that we ordered were made to perfection, nothing overdone or undercooked. Just chefs kiss! We had a family style dinner to try all sorts of items off their menu. We got the following food items: meze platters, flaming saganaki*, kalamari, xtapodi psito, horiatiki salata, chicken souvlaki, and fries. For drinks, we opted for: ilios*, fortune teller, and the filakia. The star items are instagram worthy choices. Overall, we believed each item was fairly priced and worth every single penny. We would love to come back to try out other food and drink options. And let me tell you, when I say all staff members had a very contagious smile. I loved it.

I'll save you the trip. I speak for anyone that is Greek and knows anything about Greek vibe, this gave me Egyptian vibes more-so Greek. Also, it felt like I was in a pyramid with the consistent lighting of brown... Not to mention, it was so dark I didn't really see what I was eating. Only based on texture you'd find out you were eating fried calamari. I should've listened to my family/friends when they said they were sick afterward. Maybe their sensitive stomachs couldn't digest well that day, but no. To no failure, I was sick as well. Not only me, but my partner. I've never been sick eating Greek food, let alone mediterranean in general. Oh, and to top it off, the food is priced the same as most 5-Star fine dining restaurants. Also, is it Greek if I have to ask for tzatziki? Literally 4 dishes and no tzatziki. Name me one person who eats fried kalamari with some sort-of garlic sauce, AT A GREEK RESTAURANT. Nothing on the pork pita, nothing with the chicken skewer. the waitress was nice enough to give us a nice fat portion to make-up for the lack of tzatziki. Anyways, there was no heist decision to compensate us or make it better. I'll be disputing this with Visa. 2 stars for friendly service and because they actually greet you in Greek. (The only Greek thing about this place). 2/5

Good food, excellent service in a beautiful new restaurant. The food - We tried the Kalamari Mixto, Flaming Saganaki, Xtapodi Ski Skara and Beef Carpaccio. Everything was really good with the exception of the beef carpaccio which had a weird flavour and thick texture. Our server offered to return the dish we did not like and switch it to another. Their menu is vast with options for every dietary restriction & flavour palate. The service - Adonis was our server. He was very well informed about the menu & gave us excellent recommendations. He answered all our questions and made sure we had an excellent experience from start to finish. The aesthetic - This 5000 square foot restaurant has a beautiful modern aesthetic. The space is really well laid out with an open concept design. They also have a big patio space that will be very popular this Summer. I had an excellent time visiting Myth for girls night and I recommend checking it out!

I didn't have high expectations of this spot as seldom do from this neighborhood. Most places are see and be seen Instagram etc. Spots with mediocre food and more about the ambiance. The space is designed with social media in mind with stunning interior and plenty of insta worthh moments. We had booked the patio area and even that was ear piercing loud they opened up the shades. I can't imagine how loud it gets inside. Here is a play by play of the food Dips trio decent. I enjoyed the pepper version. Myth fries were a hit as pipping hot and not greasy Octopus gorgeous to look at though I would have preferred more of a char to elevate it a bit Mains I didn't try the lamb but was well liked Chicken souvlaki was a generous portion and done very well. Nice chunks of chicken seasoned be well and not over cooked. Recommended Lobster pasta was my main. I enjoyed it though not sure it's a Greek dish. Good nonetheless They are priced on the higher side. The cocktail that I didn't try was more of a gimmick. Good spot for Greek food if you want to splurge

Hidden in the back side of king street- it's a cool chic and upscale green restaurant - It's truly amazing in service- birthday celebrations are fantastic ! Food was super good - fried cheese was my favourite - ceviche was also very good - lamb chops were killer - yellowtail was amazing too! Ambiance is fantastic ! Can't complain about this place at all

Title: Disappointing Birthday Celebration We recently booked this restaurant for a friend's birthday celebration, and unfortunately, it turned out to be a terrible experience that we won't forget. Despite mentioning the occasion in the reservation, the service was chaotic with 3-4 individuals constantly hovering around our table. Within 30 minutes of receiving our food, the staff repeatedly interrupted, asking if we were done and wanting to clear the table, even though we still had full plates. When we inquired, they explained our table was booked for a limited time, which is understandable, but the constant rush left a negative impression. An hour and a half into our meal, we had to remind them about the birthday celebration, requesting dessert with a candle. Unfortunately, they forgot twice, and by the time they brought it, they insisted on moving us to a makeshift "bar" near the water station. We were left standing for dessert as they urgently needed our table back. Despite expressing our dissatisfaction to the manager, who apologized and promised a gift card, no such compensation was received. Overall, it was a truly disappointing experience, and we have decided never to return.

I really don't know why this place doesn't have great reviews because it was great for us! The atmosphere was so fun, the service was great and the food was delicious! One of the best steak skewers we have ever had. The grilled on fire cheese was AMAZING and we loved the drinks! Fun for a night out with friends or a spunky date

This restaurant is not only aesthetically pleasing but the food is pretty good too. They're known for sharing plates so we got the octopus, zucchini chips, cheese dip, salad, and lamb (comes with 4 pieces so we added one). When you order the cheese they light it up at the table which is cool. The standouts were the octopus and zucchini but everything tasted great and fed 5 of us well. For desert we had the honey cheesecake, baklava, and custard. I've had better of each of those elsewhere and the custard they put a chocolate sauce on it that i don't think is really needed. The servers were pretty efficient and friendly. The meal can get pricy and I probably wouldn't go here many times but i'd say it is worth it.

I got invited to Myth for a birthday dinner- my friend found the restaurant on tiktok and decided to give it a try. Here's a quick summary of my personal experience from Myth: * Our reservation was at 5pm- when we went in, the restaurant was fairly empty, only two or three other tables * We were provided with QR codes for the food and drink menus * The washrooms were located in the basement of the restaurant, and for what it was worth, the decor and cleanliness was a 10/10! Potential Pros: * Very good meat quality- I ordered lamb for the first time, and Myth succeeded in giving me a good experience :) * Very aesthetically pleasing- the dark lighting and wall features make for great photos! Even the washroom is visually pleasing Potential Cons: * Although the lighting i was meant to be aesthetically pleasing, it made it much harder to actually see what we were eating, and we had trouble reading our paycheques * Tip is automatically included (20%)

I was sooo excited to go here because I love Greek food but the menu was just sooo disappointing! It seems they've changed their menu and removed a lot of the items you would've seen if you searched this place on Instagram. I love chicken souvlaki but I didn't order it here because it's literally just chicken - if you want any rice or vegetables or potatoes you need to order that as a separate side dish... We ended up ordering a bunch of appetizers to share which tasted good I guess, but the portions were pretty small for sharing. The ambience is quite nice though which might explain all the hype, you can definitely get nice Instagram pictures here. Some people really like this place though based on some reviews I've seen, so to each their own I guess!

Such a pricey place so be prepared to break the bank when you come here, but can honestly say it was worth it. It felt like you were going into a restaurant in Mykonos, the atmosphere was so romantic and fun. The tiger shrimps and octopus were my favourite menu items. I'm Mediterranean so I know good sea food and Myth is *chefs kiss.* Also order the santorini sunset cocktail it was phenomenal.

Myth has been the hottest spot on every king west girl's story all summer, so I've been intrigued and skeptical about how this dinner would go. Going in my expectations were a bit low since I'd heard a lot of mixed reviews and it seems like more of a vibes place than a good food place, but I must say they exceeded my expectations, and I loved Myth! The key is knowing what to order, so here's a rundown of the meal: Drinks - their cocktails are super unique, it's hard to go wrong here but I chose the Destino and loved it. It was served in a lantern filled with a sweet floral scented smoke, and the fragrance of the smoke really sticks with the drink to take it to the next level - wine was great, they have a really unique selection from multiple countries and the greek red wine (Anatolikos Mavroudi Cab Sauv / Merlot) was a great choice, it was medium bodied with a nice smooth, dry flavour that paired well with the meal especially the steak Food - Saganaki (flaming cheese): seems gimmicky at first, but actually was really good as the cheese was nicely seasoned with oregano and lemon and the warm pita bread altogether made for a wonderful bite (though definitely heavy) - Myth chips: fried zucchini with tzatziki, these were also surprisingly good. I find fried zucchini can be hit or miss as it easily gets soggy but this was perfectly cooked, and the tzatziki was also delicious - Calamari: included squid and shrimp with a lemon roasted garlic aioli, this one was decent but I could've done without it. The flavours in the aioli weren't really there and I preferred the tzatziki to dip; the fish was fine but just average - Lamb Tartare: one of my surprise favourites, as I've never had lamb tartare before. The combo of lamb + olive + feta + egg mixed into the tartare along with these perfectly crunchy yet thin crackers made for a hell of a bite, it was better than most beef tartare I've had too - Horiatiki Salad: another favourite. Most horiatiki is the same - tomato, cucumber, feta, olives, oregano, maybe some onion. The thing that I loved about this salad was that they used heirloom tomatoes - a simple, subtle, genius tactic that really paid off, as it added new depth of flavour that I've never had in horiatiki - Bone-in Rib Steak: a solid steak, cooked and seasoned well. Also liked the blistered tomatoes / garlic / shallots as a nice touch. Dessert - Pistachio Baklava with Saffron / Burnt Honey Gelato: this dessert gets its own section since it was my favourite part! This dessert really blew my mind, it was the perfect bite after a big meal. Having eaten baklava all my life, I've always loved it and their pistachio baklava was up there with some of the best I've eaten. On top of that, the burnt honey / saffron gelato was the perfect sweet yet slightly spiced / savory accompaniment to the baklava, and it all came together in one beautiful bite, as if Zeus himself had come down from Mount Olympus to create this dessert for me. Overall, I would say even though Myth represents the king west neighborhood in a microcosm it definitely exceeded my expectations, both from a food / drink perspective and especially on the dessert. They struck a nice balance between keeping things simple / sticking to the classics while also making a few subtle twists here and there to put their own spin on things while also not trying to do too much. One of the keys was knowing what to order (I noticed the mixed reviews among my friends really correlated with what they ordered) so big shoutout to our server Justin for helping us out with that. It's a slightly different experience than you'd get on the danforth, and a little bit on the pricier side but it's pretty much in line with what you'd expect in king west. I would definitely come back here, for their drinks, a full dinner, or even just their dessert!

The food was good, too loud but good music, and the place looked nice, but my family and I agreed the CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS DISGUSTING on 07/21/2024. This bothered us enough to say we DO NOT RECOMMEND! Upon arrival, we were given a lot of attitude due to arriving 15 minutes past our reservation. The scheduler called back with an attitude questioning and ensuring that we were going to stay no more than two hours. This means you have a two-hour deadline in this place until the owner starts asking your server to push you out. Regardless not an excuse to unfairly treat customers and as time went by they became rude and rushed. Greedy to make money, people can only act fake for so long. Just felt rushed and it got uncomfortable for us. And lastly, we were all seated at the bar even though every table was available and unused throughout our visit. All this is due to arriving late. This can be a lesson for this restaurant not to just seat a group of people who are late at the BAR! That bartender seemed upset we were seated there she could've been making more money had we not been seated there because my fiancé and I do not drink. Very unfortunate. Be wise with what business you choose to support.

Nice decor, average food, worth trying once. I think those 3 things about sums it up. The food wasn't bad but you can get better for the price. The cocktails were great. This may be a good spot to stop in for a drink and a snack. The service was great and attentive. There was also a seating time limit.

My long awaited return to Myth !This place is just so beautifully decorated and you just feel transported to a Greek island - Wish I were actually there but this comes close! The staff are welcoming and knowledgeable and the service is great! They have a great menu that is ideal for sharing but you can also enjoy many of the dishes on your own as an app or entree. Two of my favs are the lavraki crudo and one of my fav dishes to have when dining out, the octopus ! Be sure to ask for the piri piri hot sauce on the side m! My fav drink is the mezcal Paloma which has a nice deep smokey flavour, just how I like it. TY for a great experience!

Cute greek restaurant with a lot of style small but perfect menu; everything felt very fresh; the service was a bit slow and definitely could be better, but the food and the place were excellent! I would go back with a nice group of people!

I'm sure everyones seen this "trendy" new King St. spot on social media. And if you're feeling some fomo I'll put your mind at ease with this review We had the: 1. Flaming Saganki: Cheese + grilled Lemon + Oregano - It's a hard cheese made from goats milk, served on a hot plate and is a cool "show" however it didn't come with any pairings and the only option is to order some pita on the side (which ends up being a bit heavy) 2. Shrimp Stiskara: Grilled tiger shrimp + romesco + grilled Lemon - The shrimps were cooked nicely and still juicy and plump, however only 2 were decent sized, the others were tiny 3. Xtapodi Stiskara: grilled octopus - The octopus was cooked well however I felt there was a lot going on, from the pickled onions to the capers to the hummus, I felt like it all didn't really work that well together 4. Lavraki sti skara: grilled sea Bass - The fish was fresh, however I expected it to be more flavorful or interesting. I also expected for the fish to be deboned however there were quite a few bones on such a skinny fish So for my fomo foodies, it was decent but food-wise nothing crazy enough to justify the hype. It is however an IG worthy spot with a nice ambiance. It's also worth mentioning the service was attentive and they were helpful with the menu. But overall, nothing stood out that I would come back by choice.

The food was immaculate and the service was phenomenal. The ambiance of Myth restaurant was very unique and brought a sense of comfort as you enjoy your dinner with friends and family. If you are a seafood lover, I highly recommend trying the tiger shrimp on the menu! This was one of my favourite dishes and the flavours were spectacular. Thank you to Olivia and another gentleman who served me and my friends tonight. 10/10 service. Will definitely be coming back!!

This is Greece in Toronto if you ask me! I do not have enough good things to say about this place! Overall the vibe when you walk in makes you feel like you completely left Toronto. The attire changes based on the time you go. I would say the evening if formal but lunch is classy and chill. Overall the food had a range of seafood to lamb chops all which are shareable. My friend and I shared all the dishes and I would suggest doing that to try as much as possible because everything was so good. I got the potatoes as a side and those paired so well with every dish. The servers were very professional and always checked in on us. I have no complaints, they also welcome photo ops which we love I would definitely go there again!

Although my visit was not for a full meal I have nothing to say but good things. The cocktails were wonderful, the appetizers delicious and I swear the Greek fries were the best I ever had. The bartender was pleasant and engaging and despite not ordering dinner I was treated as a valued patron

Try it once. The restaurant itself is beautiful and decorated very nicely. There are clay pots on the walls and a massive bar in the middle. The food was good but nothing I'd go back for. It's a nice Greek meal however overpriced for what it actually is. The cocktails were delicious and added some fun to the night. The waiters were very on top of ensuring we did not go over our allocated seating time.

at first it was hard to find I literally circled the block twice before I was able to actually find the building but once I got inside it was just beautiful ! The ambience of the restaurant was just amazing I love how they had the music playing it didn't have any lyrics but it was just like a calm soothing vibe the lights were them and it was just nice Overall ! I sat at the bar and they took my coat for me and went to go hang it up. the bartender was super nice to me she gave me some recommendations being that I am American and explain what some of the items were ! Food came out fairly fast and it was so delicious I would definitely recommend this to my friends and family and I would go back again especially for the infamous hallway

The atmosphere was great. The food was amazing. Our waitress was super sweet. Only thing that sucks was the music. For a Greek restaurant I wish the music was more Greek instead of classic American music.

The service was amazing and we enjoyed the night because of it! The food however was average. we ordered a fish and it was full of bones, not what we expected at all. They do a great job with food presentation and everything is photo worthy. It's what you would expect From King west restaurants, it's a fun, fancy night out.

The ambience and decor was phenomenal so I can see why this restaurant is worth the IG hype. Me and my friends got the Kalamari Mixto, Spanakopita, and the Flaming Saganaki. The Flaming Saganaki was super delicious, the portions were great and loved the food presentations. I believe the food is overpriced for what it's worth but the servers were professional and helpful.

Horrible experience! If you are hungry and want to have a nice, dinner do not go! My friend had a reservation at 9:30 pm for a birthday dinner, that never happened! We waited over half an hour, and the excuse the hostess gave was "well, the people are still eating and we cannot ask them to leave"?! Anywhere else, there is a time limit of two hours, if a restaurant is that busy and unable to accommodate. Why bother with any dinner reservation if that is how you run a restaurant. It was my first and last time.

I was very sceptical about this place because it seemed overly hyped. However, I found the restaurant gorgeous and beautifully designed. The food was decent with pretty generous portions. We got the feta fries, Kalamri Mixto, Spanakopita, Seared Sea Scallops and Baklava for dessert. All dishes were good portions and tasty and shared among two people. However, I do find the restaurant to be overly priced for what it is and that is why I give it 3 stars.

Way too loud. Not even for a good time, there is a time and place for that amount of dB. Food is ridiculously good; nonetheless, the mostly negative review stays. A restaurant, however posh, cannot be this loud.
