We celebrated a post wedding dinner here. It was the first time we had been in an inside restaurant since COVID, and it was really special. All our kids were with us, and the staff was really tolerant. The steak was really decent, the salad was dressed right, and the children gobbled up the fries. I wish I could have stayed for desert.

This is long overdue- I Haven’t had a night, dinner, plate, bite, or taste that was short of spectacular at this amazing restaurant. The flavours, the French-style hand-picked and carefully crafted menus composed of original and rare dishes along with fresh and very high-quality ingredients make this hidden Eglinton village gem a celebration of haut cuisine and kosher fine dining.
The service and ambiance embrace you from the moment you step in. There isn’t a detail that the experienced and professional staff misses, which is not an easy task with 12-15 tables and very well-verse clientele

Marron Bistro is by far my favourite kosher restaurant in Toronto. Every dish is delicious and the service is first class. My husband and I have never tasted a bad dish and that says a lot because we're real foodies. I would recommend Marron Bistro to anyone looking for a special occasion meal or even just a great dinner for no reason at all.

Great atmosphere for a fine dining experience. The food was wonderful and excellent customer service, the waitress frequently came to our table to refill the water.
I ordered the 42 oz Tomahawk steak and it was more than enough for 2 person. I also love their beef taco as they were very juicy and flavourful. It's definitely a try if you have not been there before.

We’ve dined at Marron Bistro many times. The food never disappoints, and service is always great. Recently, last-minute change of plans brought us to Marron with our boisterous infant. The owner and staff made us feel so welcome and went above and beyond to accommodate our young son. Thank you for consistently exceedingly our expectations, each time we dine at your restaurant!

My wife and I flew to Toronto for the chassuna of a grandson, and after a long day of travel, we wanted a relaxing dinner with cocktails and wine. We chose Marron, and we are thrilled that we did. The appetizer we selected is what they call gravlax, but it's really a delicately cold-smoked (applewood) salmon exquisitely presented with capers, quacomole, jalapeno slices and shaved radish on crisp tostitos. DELICIOUS! My wife had rare steak (actually served rare, a rarity for a kosher restaurant) a beautifully marbled and flavorful cut of beef attractively presented with roast beets, potato

The best kosher food in Toronto. They're expensive but the service and food is amazing. The place is a but small but its very nice and they do a good job at everything. The food is always good and they always have a big selection of wines. We always go here on occasions and it's our favourite place to eat. Definitely going to keep coming back.

Need to take some clients out of the city to a nice kosher restaurant - this place was highly recommended. Our experience over all is good, the environment is cozy and comfortable; not like many other dinner place thus restaurant os not loud. food is excellent; all of us give it 9 out of 10.
Services is excellent - our waiter Geoff is one of the best - this guys can describe a dish in a such vivid way that you can’t help to order it. He is Just amazing. Entry are around $50-$60 mark.
The only reason I give it 4 star is the services towards the end: A few of us had to lingering a little bit

My wife is kosher, I am not. Took her here for her birthday dinner. It was excellent. Bone marrow, sausage and chicken liver pâté appetizer was great. Flat iron steak entree’s were on point. Did not feel like a kosher restaurant (whatever that means). We will definitely return again soon. Thank you for making my wife’s night so special!

We came here right after landing in Toronto and went straight to the restaurant they treated us incredibly took our orders right away and staff was very good! We ordered the ribeye steaks and they were cooked to perfection! And the side dishes were quite great as well! Highly recommend for business meetings and when you want to treat yourself or for special occasions.

This place is fantastic. From the warm voice on the phone to friendly greeting upon arrival, we were sure expecting the world. And we got it.!! The food was exceptional. There were four of us and we each ordered a different appetizer , a different entree, and a different dessert. The argument was , mines better, no mines better, etc.
We loved everything and we don't remember the last time we were so impressed with a restaurant.
Thank you to all the staff and management.
We will be back.

Last night I sat down for what I think may have been one of the best meals I have ever had. Drinks!!! We had a variety these amazing fizzy cocktails, made on site. They were fruit based, completely organic, fizzy, and seriously delicious. On the table, we got these heavenly crisdpy sweet potato chips served with homemade salsa and guacamole. We got… a beautifully presented charcuterie platter that I didn't try but our entire table was raving over it. Then we had this delicious grilled, ground lamb paninis with cucumber tehina, scotched eggs, and these crunchy house-made tostadas with pulled

The waitress was extremely friendly and made several great suggestions. She kept bringing us sample tasters of off menu items through the meal. The food arrived quickly, presentation was beautiful, portions were perfect and everything tasted delicious. Try this kosher restaurant out, it's well worth it.

I was quite skeptical about trying out this place as the interior was a very basic. Upon sitting down with a graded and presented with the option of drinks. This is not a place to have drinks as everything that was offered or suggested on bar rail was very cheap alcohol (Smirnoff, cheap rum no belevedere or high end stuff).. so we decided to just stick to whiskey (jack Daniels).
We decided to get a charcuterie board which was all kosher beef. It was delicious so we decided to order a main course, since there were two of us we opted for the 32oz steak and decided we would just share.

This place deserves all its good review on Yelp. My friends and I stopped in for food few day ago, the food we ordered was well worth the price.
The industry exists & is surviving because of people like the owner there. Excellent service and along with everything else.
Overall it was pleasant experience and we'll be returning :)

AVOID THIS RESTAURANT. This was the worst meal I've had in Toronto. The extremely overpriced food ($50-$80 for an entree!) tasted like it was prepared by a fry-cook. Unlike the old Marron which had a classically-trained French chef, the new dishes are very dull and unoriginal. Our dishes did not taste fresh (crusty tough meat, solidified gross gravy). The service was moderately competent (although they made numerous mistakes with orders and information) and more-or-less friendly. Nonetheless, this new iteration of Marron (without the old chef) is the worst value for money I've experienced

Since the new ownership several weeks ago many changes have been implemented.
Firstly, the menu is fantastic. The presentation is very impressive, and since I've been there more than once, I can confidently say that it's quite consistent regardless of how busy.
The service is definitely a highlight, with the friendly staff and even the owners frequenting our table, ensuring that all is to our liking.
We started with a tuna tartar, and then had the boneless rib eye steaks as our main. To be honest, my steak (15oz) had more fat than meat on it, but it was good nonetheless.
