Harbour 60 Steakhouse. Great as long as you don't have a budget.

Mildred's Temple Kitchen and Williams Landing are both suitable in LV. Mildred's has a nice smallish patio that is usually pretty quiet.

Mildred's and Harbour 60 are great recommendations...

If you are looking for view over the food, try the Pearl Harbourfront ->
http://www.pearlharbourfront.ca/

The dim sum is above average, but the view is fantastic.

Overall, the Queen's Quay Terminal has passable restaurants but within a great setting ->

The Watermark Irish pub is below the Pearl, and perfect for sitting out close to the water and enjoying the views and weather. http://www.watermarkirishpub.ca/

All a short walk from the airport.

Best,
P

By scenery I was not referring to the lake or architecture. Does that make any difference?

Then harbour 60. Very popular with the Maple Leafs and their "followers". Very high end. My favorite caesar salad in Toronto. Always a who's who.

I knew what you meant thus the Williams Landing reco in LV. I attended a wedding at Mildred's Kitchen, too small to attract much talent and wait staff meh....

Guess the food aspect won the battle lol, H60 is an excellent choice!

That's never an issue once the playoffs start.

Harbour 60 has some great food but much too stuffy atmosphere for me...think wood panelled walls and antique furniture.
there used to be a great bar restaurant on the water beside where the cops keep there boats. a party boat could also work.

Book in the bar area at Harbour 60, much better scenery than the dining room. Ask me how I know.

Jacobs is better as a steakhouse but the H60 location is quite convenient before Leafs/Raptors games...

Agreed... The table side Caesar salad and duck fat fries are great... plus they make a real good Manhattan...

You can't really go wrong with H60, Jacob's, or even Michaels on Simcoe if you want a great steak...
