Barberian's

You can excuse Barberian's for having a slightly dated atmosphere (and website). The restaurant opened in 1959 and some of the patrons have a long-standing history, equating Barberian's with celebration for more than 50 years, which certainly bodes well. Barberian's has a simple charm with artwork by the Group of Seven hanging on the walls. All of the steaks are aged on the premises. There is a myriad of steak sizes and proportions, and the chef's quiet confidence shines through from the first bite. If you are not in the mood for steak, rack of lamb with mint jelly and their grilled salmon steak will keep you satisfied. If you have a special occasion, consider renting out the Wine Cellar at Barbarians. Housing 20,000 bottles floor to ceiling with the fragrance of fresh cork, it is an unforgettable space. Ask to visit before you sit down for dinner.
