Day & Night Angus Steak Raw Bar

This is great for the groupon.
Atmosphere and ambience is excellent with beautiful table settings and a gorgeous chandelier in the middle of the restaurant.
The food isn’t spectacular, but definitely on the nicer side of things.
I appreciated the ability to order half a bottle of wine, which was more manageable for my date and myself.

3 stars for food and an extra star for our waiter.
My family wanted to have a New Years Day dinner and we called in for a 7PM dinner but was told there was no space until 8PM. We arrived around 7:30PM since all the malls have closed and we were going to just check out the menu until our table opened up.
Turns out the restaurant was half empty.
Our waiter was amazing. He spoke fluent English and Chinese. He was very patient with our table as sometimes my mom likes to change her mind 3 times within one minute & I’m very impressed with how he handled her indecisiveness. He always came by to check on our table and refill our bread. He even asked why I wasn’t eating my steak (I was too full from the appetizers) and if he should take it back to the kitchen to be re-​done.
The food: We ordered the $ 220 dinner set and 4 of the $ 55 with a dozen of Valentines.
The Valentines were delicious but nothing brag-​worthy, especially at $ 18/​half dozen.
The bread was warm yuuuuummm.
The seafood appetizer:
— Lobster sashimi (absolutely no taste, but the texture + wasabi was dynamite)
— Crab leg: watery and tasteless as well
— Abalone: I rather cook my own
— Mussel: like the ones you find at Mandarin
— Oyster: I believe they were the Valentines as well and meeeeeh.
The appetizer for $ 55 set menu: I enjoyed it a lot. The shrimp seemed fresh and the smoked salmon was delicious.
The lobster bisque was delicious. They put a couple of pieces of lobsters before they fill it up.
(do not get the French Onion, it tastes like hot dish water mixed with onions lol)
The steak was nicely cooked (medium rare) and I would’ve destroyed it had I not been so full (took it home).
Tiramisu for dessert — meeeh, I believe they make them the night before or in the morning as my tiramisu cream was frozen when served.
Overall, this place is a little wanna-​be high-​class. They do need to improve on the quality of the food but the overall ambiance is nice (especially the oyster bar in the middle).

I absolutely love this place. Both locations are good. The service is always great and the prices are good too. My favourite is the ribeye. Their steaks are cooked to perfection and melt in your mouth. I love that they have 2 $ oysters after 10pm. There is many selections of oysters. The seafood sauce is also perfect. The only problem I’ve had is that I find the lobster to be cooked weird. But still delicious.
My favourite thing is that they have wonderful wait staff. Friendly, attentive and available.
I recommend here anytime !

Love coming here for a nice meal with the fam!
The service is very nice and I can sit here for hours without ever feeling rushed to leave~
The perfect place to go for a date or fancy dinner with friends and family~
I’m not a big fan of steaks so I usually get their sea bass which is DA. BOMB. For real, you actually have to go try it because it’s basically heaven inside your mouth.
There’s nothing much to say but just TRY THE SEA BASS. TRUST :’)

I had many Day & Nights to think about this Steakhouse experience… The building location is isolated, the décor is romantic, the menu on paper is an absolute steal, all these external features make for a promising night so why do I despise this place? Three words. Service. Food. Time.
$ 50.00/person course took a lot more effort to get the order than I’ve encountered before, it’s as if they don’t want you to leave while they don’t want you to pay money for anything. When was the last time I waited 30 minutes and went to the restaurants kitchen/​bar to flag down my own waiter and tell him I wanted to order my dinner?
Romaine Heart Salad came after another painful wait time and they literally burned the bacon bits with an atomic bomb. I’m sure you agree with me that no self respecting kitchen should ever burn bacon.
On top of that, it was a salad with a couple whole leafs of lettuce some shaved cheese and hard as rock croutons served with your own choice of pour your own damn dressing. Trying to cut the lettuce with a dull knife burned a lot more calories than I was going to consume.
After another while, Oysters Appetizers but that took much longer than I expected considering they’re a Raw Bar and had to shuck 6 Oysters. Soup, you would think is straight forward but not when they came with Lobster Bisque all around while one of my friends ordered French Onion.
After two or so hours in the restaurant, we were worn down and by now wanted some meat, pay and never come back again. How often would you hear someone want to leave before they eat their steak at a steakhouse?
Ribeyes came, not as tender as one wishes but by now you could’ve served us dirt and we’ll eat. My friend didn’t even bother reminding the staff about his vegetable side order request. Dessert was Tiramisee-​you-​never-​again.
Three hours after we step foot into the restaurant, we saw the night skies once again and what a lengthy adventure it was. It takes a lot to piss me off, so the good news for Day & Night is at least they’re successful at something.

I took my girlfriend here for our anniversary after seeing the amount of groupon buys I thought it would have been a pleasant experience 6 course meal for 85 vs reg 150 which is what they said.
So I made the reservations a week in advance and the evening we arrived we had to wait 15 mins for a table. So that was the first issue.
2^nd issue was their was a hair on my gf side plate when we sat down finally. They were informed and changed it.
3^rd they did not offer us any specials or catch of the day for any appetizers we had to ask about their oysters and the waiter didn’t even know himself so he went to ask someone else
4^th the first appetizers were ordered and he brought hers and not mine so I was sitting there waiting for bread and mine
5^th the foie was on a store bought cracker
6^th the duck liver was not deveined !
7^th the soup was thick like gravy and tasted like uncooked corn starch
8^th the main course the rack of lamb was raw in the middle and not medium rare it was pink and uncooked
9^th the dessert said choice of dessert but when we asked he said only tiramisu which was frozen
Worst experience ever eating out and worse anniversary dinner imagineable I felt horrible I brought her there
Thanks a lot groupon I recommend never dinning there! I will never use groupon again for food outings

I thought it was excellent ! Reminded me of the Hong Kong steak and seafood places there. I thought the prices were excellent for a 8 course meal the oysters very fresh and love the oyster bar the entire bar was filled with ice and fresh oysters from around the world very well priced and delicious… When they bring them to the table they use beautiful tray with dry ice lcd lights really pretty … The scallop was very fresh sushimi lobster bisque food, salad with choice of 8 dressings, steak yummy and great dessert and fine coffee … Cocktails well done and nice wine selection makes this a northern gem … Well done I will be back

Location:
On the second floor of a really cute two story shopping plaza. It’s built on a hill so you can drive to the second story. There’s parking at the door but its shared with a church. There’s parking at the first story. Don’t even bother to try and bus it.
Decore:
The first thing you notice about the place is that it’s dark, the second, there’s a giant oyster bar in the model’s, then as you come in the room, you see there’s a giant bubble art installation, I think it’s has something like 1600 bubbles about a story high (30 feet?) that lights up with different colours. It’s pretty beautiful.
Bathrooms are weird. Like 1980s high end club. There are these golden animal heads that line the hallway to the bathrooms. It’s hard to take a picture of them because the area has odd lighting. I just have to say it must be really trippy if you were drunk.
Ordering:
I like the fact they have set meals. There’s a la carte of course but I like having to not think so much. There are different price points from forty dollars to two hundred.
Food:
The food is good. It’s a great place to be with friends. If you all get the set dinners you have lots of time to chat and catch up. The soup is neat. French onion or lobster bisque. They add broth to dehydrated (?) Food. Kinda neat. The steak is good, not superb but the prices reflect that. It’s great for it’s price point. Worth a visit, truly.
Service:
Service is impeccable. Proper, old school, classy, the kind you get if you go to the old upscale restaurants in New York. One thing, its a little weird how this restaurant does a really old fashioned, upscale service, but the bread basket is cheap plastic lined with cheap printed waxed paper. We comment on it every time we come.
I do like the restaurant, it feels special, it’s beautiful, great staff, good food, no one rushes you. THis is why I come back!

Not sure why I’m seeing the number of negative reviews here, as the meal I had last night was fantastic.
This was my second time eating at this restaurant and I started worrying about their declining quality due to some of the reviews I have read, but was proven to be wrong. Let’s talk about the food:
Fois gras — perfectly seared on the outside. The fat and juice gushes out when I bite into it. The timing of the cooking must’ve been impeccable to create this wonderful taste in my mouth.
Oysters — served on a plate of ice with LED light beneath. They were super fresh and were nicely shucked. No grains whatsoever.
Jumbo shrimp — also very fresh. Served with a light seafood sauce.
Lobster bisque — I love how they pour this out of a teapot to keep the soup nice and hot. They started out by putting pieces of lobster in your bowl and then they pour in the soup. Good flavors, they reduced the amount of salt from since two years ago, so I’d say this was an improvement from what I had before.
Tenderloin — served on two large slices of zucchini. By the way, whoever was complaining about the the lack of slides/​vegetables must’ve never experienced steak in a fine dining restaurant. If you want more sides, you can pay extra money to get them. This is not a Hong Kong style café (茶餐廳) you know. I ordered it medium rare. The exterior was nicely crusted and seared with a bit of salt. The chef timed the grilling really nicely, because even though the steak looked well done on the outside, the interior of the steak was nice, pink, and oh-​so juicy. I really could’ve gone without the au jus but man, that was really good too. I was pretty full by the time I finished two-​thirds of my steak, but it was so good that I couldn’t help but to finish it! Otherwise it wouldn’t have done that steak much justice.
Dessert — I think it was a tiramisu but am not too sure. It probably came out of a frozen package. Nothing impressive here but hey, I didn’t come all the way here for a dessert. I would recommend the restaurant to serve something simpler, like 2 – 3 scoops of gelato or something. Not that the dessert matters here, but I think they can really finish the meal on a much higher note with a decent dessert without complicating it.
Overall, this meal was excellent. Don’t bother with the Groupon deal. The regular priced menu is totally worth it.

We had a bad dinner experience at this location, mainly due to the poor service.
The Day & Night Scarborough location is so much better in terms of food & service.
Our waiter, Chuck, was extremely rude and gave us poor service. I don’t even know if he thinks his rudeness was being sarcastic or something — it came off as just plain rude. We’ve visited this location many times before but never had him serve us until now. If we ever decide on coming back to this location, we will request to not have him as our server.
I ordered the jumbo shrimp salad, foie gras, sea bass and dessert.
The jumbo shrimp wasn’t fresh — will not order this again.
Foie gras was over cooked.
The sea bass was okay though.
We will probably not return to this location.

Settings are good. The deco and the environment are great to be a high end restaurant. The cod is extremely well cooked to be just right. It is a very thick piece. The list of jars for the salad dressing is amazing with 6 or 7 different choices. The onion soup is delicious while the lobster bisque is a bit starchy though the taste is still acceptable. The striploin is medium rare. The texture is very good but still can be better. The service is average.

I’ve been here before. I’ve even been a fan since they had their start at 2 Fenton Road. Then, after a period where they no longer opened, my family and I had visited this location instead. However, it’s been more and more apparent these days, it’s no longer the hands down favourite it used to be. What could have possibly gone wrong?
All good stories need to be told properly, so let’s give it a proper start. From humbling beginnings, this all started as a simple restaurant on Steeles, east of Midland. Back then, they offered some relatively affordable meals, used simple décor, and showed the use of real firewood, even offered a salad bar to go with their variety of meals. People flocked towards this tiny little restaurant, only frustrated because they couldn’t get a table. Things were great. They weren’t too big on lunch service, at first, but soon, that was offered too. The ambiance was relaxed. Spanish/​Caribbean music was playing, and the interior was designed as if it was holed out of a rainforest. That’s when it must have changed upper management, because in recent years, especially after purchasing this location, they began a more upscale style of dining.
Good food is without a doubt a fantastic welcome. They’ve always offered fantastic steak that you couldn’t say no to. Well, unless for religious or health reasons, you couldn’t eat beef, it’s a different story. Even if you were a fad dieter, you would find it difficult to reject this. So, the main courses were definitely a sure win. Their service needed a little bit of touch up, but more importantly, they now have a bigger and nicer restaurant to work with. They can transform the space in the middle into the raw bar that would surely attract many more people, and open up the doors to more than just a large group of Chinese people. After all, a Chinese-​run restaurant tends to usually attract a larger Asian crowd. With more flexibility and more options, they’ve clearly opened up the doors to non-​Asians as well.
I guess this is where problems begin. The old prices and menu are no longer in effect. So, we’re making do with the new one. It seems like there was no one watching the door and inviting guests in. We stood at the door wondering what’s going on inside, as it was still 6 pm. None of the other people working in the restaurant made an attempt to acknowledge we were waiting to be seated. Strike 1.
The seating as expected is strange. As this location is built in a circle, they’ve made an attempt to put as many seats as possible, and I think that might have made it slightly cramped. One server did adjust the seating room, but only because the party to our left was a larger party, thus they pushed the tables together, thus generating more space, and allowed us to be further from the next table. It’s an understandable sign that people are willing to come here more often, thus the need for more seating, but at the expense of less space between tables, I can’t say I’m content with it.
Oh, and why the high amount of covers in a night? It seems that their constant run of the Groupon deal is bringing people in. The meal offered is actually quite impressive, but considering it’s a Groupon deal, I can’t help but think no one really goes there at full price for a reason. That leads me to the next bit. It’s just absolutely expensive here.
Then the question of the food. I can’t help but feel something is missing on my plate. There’s no better way of putting this, but there used to be a lot more vegetables. Now we’re down to 2 slices of zucchini. I’m not quite sure I understand why there’s just 2 slices of zucchini to accompany my 8 oz. steak. Is food so expensive that I had to be charged a huge amount for a steak, and get only 2 slices of zucchini? It just doesn’t seem right no matter what high end restaurant you’re going to. Is it so difficult to learn to cook some other type of vegetable? Strike 2.
I guess it can be summarized like this, and it works well for football fans, as the review runs like this: it’s like a game with Chelsea FC. They do steak, and most of dinner well, much in the same way Chelsea does football well, but they’re by no means stellar. They play what can only be defined as boring, pointless football, while flashing about their expensive squad full of talented players with no real means of making any effort to show football can be enjoyable. I guess Day and Night is much the same. Flaunted are the décor, the cutlery and the prices, but it’s not really done with a flair that makes you beg for more. You sit back feeling bored, and when the food comes out, it doesn’t exude joy towards your eyes.
Much as I want to be impressed, I just am not.

The steak is not worth. Do yourself a favour and stick with the raw bar.
We made reservations for 8 people ahead of time, arrived 5 mins early, but still had to wait 40ish minutes to get a table. Two of us got the got the $ 50 prix fixe dinner.
The 6 oysters were good, probably the only thing we really enjoyed.
The Angus tenderloin was not great. My friend got a tiny blackened lump of steak, she asked for medium rare but it was a bit too cooked to be classified as medium rare… Mine was supposed to be rare but it seemed like it was blue rare. It was pretty bland and tasteless. The steak had a pretty mushy texture. Very strange.
The dessert was a tiny square of frozen Tiramisu that had not completely defrosted. They probably bought it from Costco or something. The coffee they served us at the end was pretty good.
Others at our table felt that the oysters and fois gras were the only things that were really worth going there for.
TL;DR: Only liked oysters and coffee. They try to appear upscale, but the entire dining experience felt cheap.

Had a nice dinner here recently. But the food did not really impress me all that much. It was good but I felt like I was eating Dickens/​Firefly food (better) but in a much nicer and beautifully decorated mod environment while things were put in nicer dishes (smaller portions) and prices inflated. The place does have potential to be a 4 – 5 star imho!
Service was excellent. Though our waiter kept taking away my utensils when I needed them but no biggie.
I wanted to order the set menu but did not want to indulge & overstuff myself. So I ordered the Salmon for the entrée (nice dill sauce). I liked that it was crunchy on the outside but the inside was slightly on the drier side. The soup (lobster bisque) was nice but not creamy enough. French onion soup could be tastier. I feel like a lot of places cheap out on ingredients. I like that they are all fancy & pour the soup in front of u. The complimentary buns were nice & toasty warm… exactly how I like them :) I got to sample a bit of the smoked salmon from the set menu appetizer & it was very nice and fresh but that might have been the only thing that impressed me the whole night. I think Simon C will agree also.
I don’t mind coming back at all. It is a beautiful & clean restaurant.

Everything here went perfectly for me. !!
Cheapo me bought a Groupon to try the day and night near my house and wow! I was so impressed by everything such as the design, décor (especially the washroom) literally so cool cause the washroom has like different colors going around and idk its just awesome!
They have excellent service !! Always checking up politely and asking how’s everything even though it was a Groupon! (I hear that you get mistreated if you use Groupon) but no! Not here they are super nice !!
Food was soooooo fuccking good !! (Excuse my language) but seriously its pretty good. Everything tasted fresh. except for the lobster in the lobster bisque … And they also have an oyster bar with sooooo many oysters to pick from … Seriously too many. But the portions were quite small. There’s so much to say but.
I’ll just cut it short. Definetly give this place a try since they offer a Groupon deal right now !!*note: you will prob be spending approx $ 110 for 2 ppl*

The short version of the review:
steaks are really good, service is attentative, price is on the high side and portions were small so I left the restaurant not 100% full.
The long version of the review:
Chinese run restaurant with a western feel to the décor. Meal starts off with complementary bread.
I myself got the $ 50 meal and opted for the following:
6 raw oysters — decent size, fresh and tasted what an oyster should taste like
Organic mixed greens salad — very small and came with a varity of dressings to choose from
Lobster bisque — had a small chunk of lobster and was okay in terms of flavour but I have definately had much better lobster bisque soup elsewhere
Certified Angus Tenderlion — the meat was soft and tender and tasted great but I believe they only give you an 8 ounce which was a bit small for me
For dessert you get a super small cube size Tirimisu and mango cake. This is the same crap (excuse my language) you would get at Chinese grocery stores or at Japanese AYCE restaurants.
Coffee or tea is part of the meal and I went with the coffee which according to my father is crap. I’m no coffee expert but my father on the other hand has drank coffee all his life and considers the coffee served here worse than instant coffee.
Our table also got the $ 45 meal with the rack of lamb. The lamb was done very well. Really soft and tender.
Aswell we got the Nordic seafood rice with lobster bisque soup for $ 26. Nothing really worth mentioning here but not worth the money.
I also got the chance to try the smoked salmon and moulard duck breast appetizers. Super small thin slices for both. Nothing good worth mentioning here either.
Overall I would say there were more misses than hits. If I pay $ 50 for a meal to any restaurant whether high end or low end I expect to leave at least with a full stomach. It didn’t happen here even though I stole a piece of lamb from my sister.

Came here for a family dinner, atmosphere and décor are decent, the lights are pretty dim, so you can’t honestly see too much.
We each had a set course. For starters there was a salad, lobster bisque, raw oysters, and foie gras. Portions were surprisingly small, but the actual quality and presentation of the food was wonderful. Along with the tiny salad, they had a a bunch of small jars of salad dressing you could try out — definitely something neat! Oysters were very fresh as well.
As for main course, tow of us had a steak, another one, a lamb rack. The steak was cooked to perfection, the cut was thick, but it was still juicy and done as we had ordered it, which was medium well. It wasn’t too raw and overall very tender still. My lamb rack was also done very well, not too raw, not overcooked though, juicy and marinated very well.
Dessert fell rather flat, as their cake/​teas were mediocre and nothing special. Compared to the rest of the meal, their dessert was definitely below the calibre of the other sections.
Overall though, servers were very attentive and the food was generally great. I’d definitely come back on special occasions as the price is higher than your average dinner.

Décor and atmosphere is unarguably good. Food and service however…
You might be fooled by what it looks like inside compared with the food there. The place is pretty alright, right down to their washroom which has stars and stuff all over their ceiling. But i didnt come here to eat their washroom, i came here for their food. Day and Night Steakhouse — so i decided to try their steak and lamb chop racks. Steak was pretty salty but tenderness wasnt bad; came with a side of gravy so i tried to cover the saltiness with gravy… yeah. Lamb rack’s tenderness was ok too, not amazing, although a bit on the small side. I guess they are Asian after all.
I felt RUSHED and slightly annoyed with the service. The plates came one after the other without us even finishing one yet. At one point i simply left the next plate on the corner of the table until i was done with the one infront of me. We came with a Groupon promo so not sure if it has anything to do with that.
At the end of it, it felt like they’re trying to be an Asian fine dining restaurant with a western feel. It was not a horrible experience but considering the price we paid i wasnt satisfied with it. Work on your basic fine dining service first people.

My parents have just been raving about this place for weeks now. We didn’t have the chance to have a sit down dinner but my parents really wanted to get me to try it while I was in town so we came here to get a bit of takeout from their midnight snacks menu.
I am just so impressed with the level of service these guys are offering FOR TAKEOUT patrons. I can’t wait to have a sit down dinner here. The food, while somewhat pricey on their regular menu, becomes pretty affordable on their midnight snacks menu and on their oyster specials. It’s definitely worth the extra money to be treated this nicely in a hometown establishment.

Go here for the experience only. Food is way over priced even with the Groupon deal! Renovation was ¹⁰⁄₁₀ but that’s just the superficial stuff, worth one star.
Service could’ve been better if the waitress doesn’t have a heavy accent and decide from the get go whether she wants to talk to us in English or Chinese!
Now the food, where should I begin? Oysters… I guess you can’t go wrong with this. Additional star for freshness.
Salads… the variety of dressings which hopefully are not reused as my mom said she saw someone dip and double dip their lettuce leaf.
Soups… I believe there’re only 2 choices; lobster bisque or French onion. Very gimmicky as your bowls are filled with some mushy mashed potatoes (lobster bisque) or some pre-​made cracker like onion and cheese (French onion), then the soups are poured from a kettle into your bowl which looks like gravy. So, skip it if you don’t like drinking gravy. Yes, it’s that horrible!
Angus steaks are suppose to be their selling point, it was tender but blend. It came with the steak alone on a thin slice of zucchini and NOTHING else.
If you ended up at this restaurant by force, I would recommend getting the sea bass instead as it was delicious. Star for sea bass!
Definitely not worth a second try as this is nothing but a high end dining wannabe!
