TORONTO (October 23, 2024) - Early 2025 will mark Jacobs & Co.’s highly anticipated move to 81 Bay Street, in the heart of downtown Toronto, within the new CIBC Square complex. Known for its elegant and refined service, unrivaled steak expertise and meticulous attention to detail, Jacobs & Co. will elevate its distinctive restaurant experience in downtown Toronto’s revitalized Financial District while staying true to its signature hospitality that has earned it a loyal following and global recognition.
Jacobs & Co. is Canada’s preeminent steakhouse, recommended by the MICHELIN Guide and the only steakhouse in Toronto—and one of just two across Canada —to be named to the World’s 101 Best Steak Restaurants List. As it gears up for its relocation after 17 years at its heritage Brant Street location, fans of this Entertainment District institution can continue to enjoy its unparalleled offerings uninterrupted until its transition to Bay Street in the new year.
"17 years ago, we opened the doors to Jacobs & Co. Steakhouse on Brant Street with excitement, passion and a desire to create a world-class steakhouse that offered the very best meat and an evolved experience,” said Gus Giazitzidis, Managing Director.
The King Street Food Company. “ We are deeply grateful for the loyalty and support of our guests over the past two decades. While we continue to enjoy the last few months at Brant Street, we look forward to bringing that same craftsmanship and dedication to our new CIBC Square location where we will build on that legacy and deliver even more special experiences to our guests in the new year.”
The new location at CIBC Square will offer a newly designed, yet familiar experience, with several exciting enhancements. The inviting, modern space will feature outstanding city views, outdoor patio, raw bar, and intimate private dining rooms, providing a luxurious experience for guests, corporate events or special occasions.
A hallmark of Jacobs & Co. has always been its impeccable service and Executive Chef Danny McCallum’s steadfast dedication to sourcing the finest cuts from top-tier ranches from around the globe. With a carefully curated network of suppliers, the restaurant provides access to exclusive, premium cuts such as Wagyu and Japanese A5 Kobe beef, ensuring guests can enjoy the best steaks in the world. The signature Dry Aging Room will make the move, allowing guests to explore a wide array of cuts with the same meticulous aging process that has become a Jacobs tradition, as will its signature tableside Caesar salad and take-home breakfast muffins.
