Tomahawk Steak! Was very nice, not my favourite cut even though a nice change. Sides were tasty and service was nice.

One of our favourite things to do when we travel is splurge on an expensive steak dinner with a good bottle of wine. Somehow it lead us to modern steak. We ordered two drinks, a bottle of wine, two caesar salads, a filet grass fed steak, ribeye steak and three sides, and creme brûlée. For the final price tag of $250. The sides were about the best part. We got the beets and horseradish, fully loaded potatoes, and garlic mushrooms which all were very tasty. Honestly the ribeye steak had so much fat on it, you ate maybe ate 1/4 of it. The filet grass fed sirloin was recommended by the server being a more lean cut for women so that's what I choose. It was so burnt on the outside you had to cut the entire outside of the steak off. No we didn't complain when they asked us how things were. Date nights are so happy and fun for us so we just ate what we were given but honestly we wouldn't go back again. The sever was decently friendly but he checked on us maybe for two hours three times. We tried to start a convo and he walked alway answering us which we felt like he didn't care at all. We tipped and paid our bill and left. We also felt like it was super unprofessional of the women manager or supervisor to be telling the bartenders right behind the curtain about how they need to be clearing wine glasses faster like this table right here and she came over and grabbed our wine glasses and said she'd be taking these when we were waiting for our wine to be brought to us. As we heard her giving the bartenders heck. We would not recommended this place to anyone. For the price you pay you may as well check out the keg for better quality service and food for cheaper. Don't spend your expensive date night here.

A vegetarian at a steak house!! Haha. I had two options in the whole menu (which is completely fine) as my friend and her sisters shared a steak dinner. I got the mushroom risotto, which was actually quite delicious! The washrooms are behind the hostess area, which I thought was a bit awkward because washroom goers have to go in and out of the hostess' way. Our server was really nice! He was professional and made sure that we were having a good time. This is a great place to go to if you eat steak!

Going out to a steakhouse is a rarity for me but every now and then, we like to treat ourselves. Modern Steak had a pretty reasonable Big Taste menu so we paid them a visit one Saturday evening. Menu from the outside. The inside is very high end, fancy; what I didn't expect was it to have two floors! Pretty slick. Dimming of the lights makes it perfect for date night, although hope you've got a fat wallet. It's a nice touch that they come to your table and let you choose your own personal steak knife! My sis and I settled on the Big Taste menu while O went off menu as he is picky when it comes to his steaks. Truffle popcorn these come out complimentary. Addictively good. Wish they brought out another bowl. Oysters $45.00 for dozen) comes with the usual mignonette, lemon and horseradish accompaniments. Above average but I would wait and come on a Thursday for their buck a shuck. Sauteed cremini mushrooms $11.00) these were flavourful and went well as an additional side to O's steak. Definitely overpriced though. Oversized potato didn't try any but the oversized potato was bigger than the steak on the plate! Filet $54.00 for 7oz) this looked really small. Steaks are always pricey and MS has a huge range of them. At least you get one side included. Big Taste dinner $35.00 for three courses) Prawn bong not bad as a starter but we enjoyed the popcorn more than this. Brant Lake wagyu 6 oz sirloin was the perfect size for my sis and I. Steak was cooked to a nice medium rare as we asked for. Chocolate mousse cake the dessert didn't look like much but it was smooth and decadent. The raspberry coulis helped bring a touch of sweetness. To me, this seems like a special occasion/business meeting spot unless you're a die hard steak eater.

I initially gave this place a 5. My sister called in the next day, because they were closed. She told them she got food poisoning from their fish. Her and I shared everything else, the only thing I didn't try was her fish. She called, left a voicemail, and they called her back the next day, and said sorry, they said they checked with the kitchen and everything was good...which makes absolutely no sense. If they didn't even know which customer she was. How could they have known EXACTLY WHICH plate of rainbow trout it was, and claim that it was fine? They said sorry over the phone, and that everything seemed to be good in the kitchen (from two nights before, which is absurd). They offered her no compensation, no gift card, no complimentary meal, no nothing. Just a sorry and hung up. It's a shame because I initially gave this place a five. But definitely a one now because of that. To think they're a restaurant chain that has a modern steak, modern burger, and a modern ocean, and they can't even offer any kind of compensation for my sister being sick all night. Horrible service.
