Perched atop the TD Centre since 1995, Canoe pairs a tasting-menu-driven Canadian menu, think Arctic char, Alberta beef, and Quebec foie gras, with floor-to-ceiling views over the lake and skyline. It's long been a fixture on Canada's best-restaurant lists and a go-to for special occasions. Reservations well in advance are strongly recommended.
