Established in 1963, and revitalized in summer 2012, the Hot Stove Club is a place where fans can enjoy traditional steakhouse cuisine in a sophisticated atmosphere with modern amenities.

The Hot Stove Club exudes class and glam with earth-tone leathers, dark wood finishings, marble displays and star-lit ceilings. A custom-built meat locker, with backlit Himalayan salt wall, showcases a wealth of dry-aged premium cut meats, sure to arouse your appetite. If you fancy food from the sea, the elegant Raw Bar offers fresh seafood from local markets. Along with the many steak and seafood options, the menu also offers an array of classic cuisine from rotisserie chicken to hand-rolled ravioli.

Complete your dining experience with a premium cocktail/after dinner drink and pair it with a classic dessert like the melt-in-your-mouth butter tart, or the signature baked Alaska.

"Took my Son there for a birthday dinner and then the hockey game. Food was very good and service was first rate. That being said the prices were on the high side and would recommend this for only a very special occasion."

"The food was great, but expensive;Prime Rib was melt in your mouth! Service was friendly and attentive.
The wine list was extensive and expensive, but there a few reasonably priced gems if you look hard.You can get a meal as good at many Steak houses in TO but none where you can duck back in for coffee and cake between periods. Most patrons are on company tabs so cost is not a concern, if your paying out of your own pocket this is a special occasion place.
One tip; when reserving ask for a table away from the waiter station, we got placed right beside and it is very busy and a bit disturbing."

"I booked this restaurant a few months ago and was surprised that we were seated in the lounge area. The lounge serves the same food but is much louder then the dining room. I told the hostess that I have never been seated here before, never thought I had to request the dining room and asked to be moved. She told me she would discuss with the manager. No one approached us as to whether we could be moved and every time she passed me she gave me a dead panned looked. Our server understood the issue and he was amazing as well as the food was excellent.
The hostess really turned me off. There are many places to dine before a game and as such I decided to cancel the rest of my reservations. Hy's and Habour 60 will be pleased with this!!!!"

"I know the $244 before tip for two to eat was quite expensive. However, it was a wonderful meal and experience. The food was fresh, tasty and professionally served. My "medium" steak was served "rare" I thought, but that was OK with me. One point is that my Gold tickets did not say I was allowed into the Hot Stove Club but I was permitted to enter and be served. You might want to delete that point from your website as I am sure any ticket holder is encouraged to eat at the Hot Stove. It was a memorable dining experience for my son and me!

"First time after the renovations were done. The food was good but very expensive. My rack of lamb was served to me cold and I sent it back. They immediately told me that there would be no charge for this entree. Nice touch. My daughters appetizer a Caesar salad game before my one piece appetizer of shrimp. Nice shrimp but $10 for one?? She was done before the shrimp arrived. Given my meal was sent back she ate her dinner first then I ate mine. I like the convenience of dining in the arena but I just don't think it is worth the price."
