Eating suggestions around Bay/Adelaide area

[BLM]

Visiting Toronto for a couple of days later this month. One of the days, I'm meeting someone I know at Bay/Adelaide. What are the very good dining eats around that area(within walking distance)?

Rodney's By Bay is easily accessible if you're into oysters. Also, second the recommendation for Red's and love the patio at Vertical (food is very good too).

I'd second Rodney's by Bay and Vertical. I'd skip Canoe and Bymark for lunch - but recommend Canoe for dinner.

Just found out, my friend doesn't eat seafood. What's good to eat at Vertical?

Wild boar pasta... it's not exactly summer food, but then again we're not exactly having summer (most days).

Same weather in Montreal. Unsummer like weather so far this summer.

While I won't go to Rodney's by Bay with my friend(as she's not into seafood), I might decide to check it out myself. What's good to order at Rodney's(I presume oysters of some kind)?

There is a thread on Rodney's By Bay with different opinions, but their fish and chips are great.

Reds is pretty decent -- it's about half a block west of Bay on Adelaide. If you're looking for cheaper fare, Terroni is lively and also nearby in the other direction. There are lots of options depending on your budget and tastes.

Mercatto is right at the intersection, and I think I would prefer it to Terroni. It gets really busy during the lunch rush though, and they don't take reservations for groups less than 6.

If money is not a concern, I would suggest Canoe, Bymark...the usual Financial District players. Vertical also has a nice patio if you want to be outside.

I'm sure if you searched the board for restaurants in the FD, you will find threads covering this topic.

Seeking food that I can't find in Montreal, or would be much better in TO. Canoe & Bymark, maybe to formal to my friend for our lunch visit.

That's a pricey part of town. Budget?

[BLM]

Didn't think of that. I'm open to all budgets, but I'm meeting the person during her lunch break at work. I'm visiting from Montreal.
