I have been to the Rushton a few times'; Its a busy place on St. Clair, and has a nice bar, if you want to have a drink before dinner.
Never been dissapointed in a meal here. The Bartender whipped up my favorite Sour Apple Martini last time I was in, and it was off the menu, so I did appreciate that.
Nice ambiance, and it is a bit tight space wise, but they do aim to please.
Steak Frites is #1 on my list of faves, but of course that;s a personal bias to begin with.
Give it a try, and do enjoy. No reservations, so it's first come, first serve, you know the drill....
Enjoy! -

Decided to try out this restaurant on a Wednesday night. Was surprised at how busy it was, but it is not a large restaurant and we didn't arrive until after 8pm.
Service was a bit slow, but nothing to complain about. I had the fish fry (basically fish & chips) which came with sweet potato fries. The fish itself was quite bland, but the sweet potato fries were great. My friends both had the mussels & fries and said they were pretty good.
Overall, I would def come back again, but would order something else off the menu. And looks like they have a great patio for the summer.... -

Not sure why this place has such a low rating! Also: it is definitely NOT spendy. The entrees run at about $18. Add in a glass of wine, and you are still under $31... definitely not spendy.
It's a good place for a night out, for sure, maybe not a place to go every week, but it's still great. Beautiful decor and ambiance makes it possible to be either casual or dressy, and not feel out of place. Unfortunately it is packed a little tightly inside, so getting to the bathroom can be difficult if the bar is full. But there are always a ton of staff around (despite being a smallish restaurant, they still have a hostess out front every night) to help things run smoothly.
The food is delicious, and a lot of the dishes come in two sizes, which is great when I go with my parents, who never want a full meal.
It's especially wonderful in the summertime when the lovely and large patio is open - they also open the front windows, which is always wonderful. -

This place is always busy!
Even though it was a bit chilly last night, the patio at The Rushton was heated and toasty. I called ahead to see if I would need reservations and they said that they don't take reservations for parties under 6 people, but seeing as I was coming around 8:15 pm on a Wednesday, there would be no problem getting a table. Wrong!
My pal and I sat on the outdoor patio couch on the sidewalk and waited until 8:30 pm for any table that opened, inside or outside. You can order drinks to that couch, so that was cool.
The hostess was very nice and said that a table opened up on the patio, which was fine because they had the heating turned on. Our waiter came out immediately after we were seated. They delivered fresh bread and a spread that changes all the time. Last night's was a bean and goat cheese spread that was light and tasty on the yummy, chewy bread.
The menu isn't large, but has great variety. I ordered the veggie burger with sweet potato fries. The consistency of the burger is a bit mushy, but I find it so tasty that I didn't mind having to eat if with a fork and knife. Like the pickle on the side!
Their dessert menu is great, though I was so stuffed, I decided to stick with a tea. The staff was very friendly and attentive. I look forward to eating there again!
The neighbourhood is in the midst of ongoing gentrification, so on one side of the restaurant is a coin laundry and across the other side is a closed down store front. Across the street are boutiques and The Goodwill is just east on St. Clair. -

My boyfriend and I try to get out for a "nice" dinner about once a month, and had yet to try this joint. It's a stones throw from our home and looks fabulous from the outside. It didn't disappoint.
We snagged the very last open two-top at about 9 PM on a Tuesday night (but there were a few large groups having parties that might have made it tougher than usual) with no waiting and pretty quickly fell in love with the decor. Rough brick walls toss the low light around in pretty ways and there are some decent Burtynsky imitations on the walls (which I mean in the most affectionate way possible.)
Both veterans of the service industry, we noted that our server took a bit to come and get our drink order, but he was positively slammed and from the moment we were sort of "officially" under his care, service was shockingly consistent, fast, professional, and kind for the amount of pressure they were under.
The menu suffers from having almost too MANY things we wanted to try, furthering the dilemma were a number of delicious sounding specials. My boyfriend had a perfect piece of salmon, while I opted to go with the slightly less expensive 8 oz. steak and frites (half potato, half yam, nice touch) that were cooked to perfection (a perfect rare) so that I could have a ricotta/butternut squash/walnut/brown butter ravioli appetizer special that was legitimately special.
I have to reiterate that the speed and perfection at which things came out of the little kitchen was really admirable. Everything came out at that perfect 10-20-10 ratio and was piping hot.
We had decided before we left we'd become monthly regulars. -

Went here for drinks and dinner. The drink at the bar prior to the meal was quite week yet expensive, but atmosphere was very nice. For dinner I had the soup special- butternut squash soup which is slightly out of season for late summer and it tasted as such- was slightly below par- lacked the thickness I am accustomed too.. Plus the soup was presented in a huge bowl...like10inches high...for small tables, not a good idea.
The drink I got at table was much better. The rib eye steak was very good.
The dessert wine... 21$ port wine was great but the glass was barely filled. At least come close to a third of the glass for that price...and because of that they lost a star.
The ambience was delightful. Outside seating was very nice, until the trash truck came by, and an awful stench followed.... Luckily I was paying the bill at the time, but felt sorry for the other diners just receiving their food.
Would I return? Probably would check out other places in the area first, but it was good enough for a return visit.
They accept Amx.

Our department had a work lunch there today.
There were 17 of us and we were lucky enough to sit on the patio.
We had a set menu but there was still enough to choose from.
I started with a salad ... it was nice and fresh. I had steak and roasted potatoes as my main (I substituted the roasted potatoes for fries) ... it was good but I found the serving small. For dessert, I had a chocolate and raspberry tartufo which was good.
The patio would be nice to people-watch with a glass of wine. -

For anyone in the neighbourhood the Rushton is an regular dinner spot. And we are lucky for it, as you can count on them. The food is good, it is always packed, has a nice enough patio and it works well for varied tastes - something for everyone. I guess part of the 3 star rating is that I do not think the service is great - they are a bit lazy because they are always busy. I also hate that they won't take reservations.
Would like it much better if they could get brunch right - as there is a shortage of good brunch spots.
Deffinitely go and check it out. -

The Rushton has a menu that everybody needs in their neighborhood. It's one of those restaurants where I would be happy with any option on the menu. However, my stomach isn't big enough, so I settled for a few and all of the dishes were good.
We were treated great from the moment we walked in. Our waitress gave us a choice of tables, took my coat, and made us feel at home. I already mentioned I could eat anything on the dining menu, but have not yet mentioned the drinks menu. Gotta love a place that has a drinks menu, and this one is extensive. Really. I appreciate a place that lists their beers on tap, so I don't have to ask, or worse, peer at the bar to try to read the names of the beers on the tap. And the beers on tap were a good selection of imports and local craft beers.
We had the special oysters to start (half a dozen on the half shell - big, juicy and flavorful), the lobster linguin in pesto sauce and the steak frites. The frites were a delicious mix of regular and sweet potato. Yum.
As I said, our server was great, the food and drink were great. After I return and try more on the delightful menu, I am sure I will upgrade to 5 stars. I really wish this place was in my neighborhood. I would go pretty often. -

I went to the Rushton with 2 friends on a Saturday night for a girl's night. I called ahead but was told they don't take reservations! Luckily we arrived at 7 pm and there was one table left in the entire restaurant. About half an hour later the bar was packed with people waiting for tables.
First impressions- The ambiance was nice and the lights were set at the perfect level. LOVED the red curtain you have to walk into the enter the restaurant. It was super crowded! The tables are so close together I was worried that it would be awkward. Aside from a couple beside us who would not stop staring, I didn't really mind the crowd after a while, it was nice that we felt surrounded by people but were kind of in our own world.
We were so-so on our waitress. She was very knowledgeable about the dishes, but brought us the wrong bottle of wine. I will admit that we didn't catch it right away and we let her open it, so we were partially to blame, but nonetheless it was nowhere near the wine we had ordered so we wondered if she had paid attention at all to our request? It was a bit pricier that the original bottle and she was nice enough to give it to us at the cheaper price as long as we kept it our little secret (woops... not so much of a secret now i guess). One of my friends finished her dish, to which our server commented "WOW I can't believed you finished the whole thing, it's HUGE!" Yikes. That is definitely something you should never say to a female guest. We all had a laugh over it but i think my friend might have been a tad offended.
All this being said, the food was AMAZING. We split the Rushton Salad - great as long as you like blue cheese and bitter greens- and an order of coconut shrimp - pretty average but we loved the asian style slaw that it came served on. One friend had the Lobster Linguini, which came with a pesto sauce, I got to try it and it was really tasty. My other friend and I each got the NY steak served with a green pea risotto and sauteed kale, which unfortunately is not on their menu but being served as a feature for the evening. The steak was cooked perfectly, so tender and juicy, and the risotto Ah! the RISOTTO! I dreamt about it weeks later.
We split the Rushton Trio for dessert, a plate consisting of a mini slice of pecan pie (AH-mazing) of chocolate truffle cake (also fab) and of cheesecake (my least favourite but still tasty)
The manager came to our table a couple of times to pour our wine and to introduce himself, it made us feel super welcome.
All in all, we had a great night. I highly recommend this place to all my friends and I can't wait to go back and try out more items from their menu. -

Heard quite a bit (mainly mixed responses) about this restaurant from friends who use to work there and friends who dine there often. It's in a great cozy location on St. Clair and what looks like a great summer patio.
Service was a little slower than usual but they knew things were running behind and definitely did their best to be as hospitable as possible.
The dishes for the most part were alright. Nothing really popped out to me or made me stop for a moment. Although the lamb sliders with the blue cheese nearly threw me off my rocker. Way too large and strong of a dollop of cheese on a such a tiny burger.
I have to say that my feelings are mixed and I'm hoping a second visit to The Rushton can only go up from where I feel now. -

I had a pretty good time at the Rushton. We grabbed a few seats outside and even on a Sunday night it was bustling. The patio is covered and dim, lit only by hanging candles. You can actually smell the wax. When ordered four small plates the waitress screwed up her face, skeptical about the surface area of our table. She was right to worry. The small plates are anything but, which meant we were truly stuffed.
We tried the duck confit rolls, coconut shrimp, a triplet of tiny lamb burgers and a fancy-pants poutine with braised lamb. All was delicious. I hope to come here again.
Obligatory Title Pun: I might have a c-RUSH on this place.
Menu Readability: White swiss type on a desaturated photo? How two-thousand and late.
Need to mention: I have not been inside the restaurant proper, so what the hell do I know?
What this place teaches me about myself: I'd probably run my arm through a blender as long as the instructions were in Helvetica. -

HOLLLLLLD A MINUTE, did you say, you gave away my table because I was ten minutes late for a birthday reservation I made a week before, even when I had the courtesy to phone 2 days before to let you know my party of 11 would only be 8?
Th answer is yes. Saturday night, with a large birthday party and nowhere to go my family and friends abided the horrible service because we did not want to be stranded without restaurant in some other section of the city. Scrunched up into the dunce's corner of the restaurant, drinkless and stressed, we waited 2 hours for for our table and when we were finally seated, we waited another hour and a half for our mediocre food. The only item above par in this long anticipated meal was the side order of sweet potato fries and really, who can mess up deep fried and breaded carbohydrates?
From the bottom of my heart, I implore you, do not give this place your business, the food cannot mitigate your upset stomach after its been turned by the obnoxious owner and his sad staff. -

This week was my first real time in Toronto to walk the streets, see the sights and most of all enjoy great food! I take my Yelp reviews quite seriously and this one is no exception.
My very good friend graciously hosted me and after deciding whether to go downtown or stay in St. Claire I encouraged her to keep it local. That was such a great idea...because we ended up at one of her local favorite restaurants, The Rushton.
The interior was rustically warm with exposed brick, tin ceilings, rich dark wood tables and even charming chandeliers hanging in the dining room. The staff greeted us with smiles and ushered us to a table straight away. Our server was Simon...great smile, quick to make recommendations for drinks and give us the daily specials before we took in the menu. Ample time was given between bringing our cocktails, so we could think about the specials and make the all important decision for our dinner choices. The veal chop special with pumpkin puree and swiss chard was chosen by my friend, and for me the grilled Atlantic salmon with roasted red pepper rouille and creamy green salsa served over jasmine basmati rice and sautéed spinach.
We were served a duo of breads with a red pepper hummus spread before the mains arrived. The runner arrived with two warm plates with beautifully presented meals. The quality of the food was perfect. Even though stuffed with the generous portions I could have gone for seconds....because it was just that good.
I would love to have a restaurant like this, or the myriad of choices the St. Claire area has to offer, in my own neighborhood, but for now I'll settle for another visit soon and settle in to try another choice of the Rushton's great menu. -

I went in with a friend for a drink, no food (we had just had roti at Alberts down the road..yummy!)
The decor is great - modern, masculine and feminine at the same time.
I had the l'orange martini (orange vodka and pineapple juice were some of the ingredients in this amazing drink) and my friend had the tom (gin, lime). The drinks were so good, we did a wow when we each sipped ours then traded to share the experience!
At $7-12 a pop, we each only had one drink (I like the Souz Dal $3 drinks on Wed for cost effectiveness!!!) But, I would like to go back and try the food (it looked great coming out of the kitchen) and another one of their other speciality drinks. Their drink menu is extensive. Huge wine menu. They must have a very large wine cellar in the basement.
I feel there are way too many tables in the place. You had to plan your route to get in and out and our waiter had a hard time reaching us. Yes the place is great and cozy, but could use less tables.Listed in: Bottom's Up!

very nice neighbourhood restaurant. Went there with another couple. The service was great...Food was ok, not great. Too much sauce and too many ingredients basically...Was the recurring theme on everything we had,- the maple shrimps, the chicken, lobster pasta, gnocchi and beet salad. First couple of bites were great, but then it just got a bit too much....Would come back though, but would tell them to be a bit moderate (and this is coming from a big guy...)

I became aware of it through the Now's Patio guide. I'm glad I went. It's far from the trendy places in downtown, and personally, I appreciate that.
The decor and layout is very beautiful and modern. I took a quick peek inside and there is exposed brick which I absolutely adore.
I arrived a little bit after 6pm on a Friday and there were several patio tables available for my choosing.
The menu is mostly seafood, so caution for those who are not keen on seafood fare. But both my dish and my friend's dish were good and a good serving sized portion. I ordered the fish fry and it was not greasy - high marks!
We ordered dessert too and to my delight, the creme brulee was large and with a good texture and flavour. However, I didn't finish it b/c I was full. She ordered the cheesecake and it's a small portion. I may try it next time.
We stayed there for close to 3 hours and were served with a smile and a friendly attitude. In fact, our server was very attentive and friendly. -

Pros: Nice Atmosphere | Good Selection Of Drinks | Good Menu | Good Service
Cons: Kitchen Staff | Food
I have been to the Rushton a few times but I can only remember the last two; the most recent being June 26, 2011. The 2nd last time I had the burger as a main and there was nothing to complain about. We sat inside and I enjoyed the fact that the artwork on the walls is available for purchase. This is something I would like to see in many more restaurants...a great way to support the arts community!
This time we sat out on the patio which has a nice atmosphere and is not overly crowded. The chair was very uneven but I was not going to let it annoy me. They have one long continuous heater (more effective than spot heat lamps) which allows them to open the patio earlier in the season and close it later...of course it was not on at the time. I vaguely remember being there to experience the less effective heat lamps.
Around the time we placed our order I overheard one server say to another, (roughly) what is going on tonight? This was said as she took back a plate of food. I ordered the Lobster Linguine without mushrooms while my partner ordered the Steak Frites (6oz) done medium-rare. I enjoyed the taste of the linguine but was highly annoyed at having to surgically remove every last piece of mushroom before beginning to eat. I am usually hesitant to send something back to the kitchen and did not want to wait, then eat by myself. Halfway through my partner complained that his meal was not very good at all. The steak was well done and looked thin and dry. We both could have sent our meals back but it was too late at that point.
Overall, the atmosphere is nice and the food is decent enough but it is not worth the money you are paying here. At the end the server noticed the kitchen had not followed their directions regarding the mushrooms at which point my partner mentioned the problem with the steak. It is possible the server was saving face but we gave him the benefit of the doubt. -

I just returned to The Rushton after not having been there for awhile, and I was somewhat horrified that what I thought was their signature dish was GONE. The original poutine was GONE.
It used to be fries with a triple-crème brie and pulled braised lamb ...and now was changed to a duck confit.
The poutine was still fine...fries were nice, but not as interesting as with the lamb.
Sigh...Progress?
Anyways...the resto is still fun. The service was very friendly and attentive, and the patio wide and reasonably covered from the downpour that we experienced while on the patio.
Their drink list is fun with a small but reasonably varied tap selection. They have a reasonable selection of wines by the glass.
Their Mac and Cheese offered as a side dish, is a healthier, richer alternative to the usual slop offered on a kids menu at a restaurant, and readily met approval by my 2 youngsters...which were easily accomodated by going for an early sitting rather than a standard, PACKED evening dining clot.
Portions were a decent size...chicken was moist, and well cooked, burger was tasty and a good size, and other dishes were well prepared and presented.
This is a hip and happenin' place, and regularly gets packed in the evening by regular locals. So, expect good energy, and a bit of congestion after 7pm...but before that, you're probably alright with kids. -

For a change, I ventured outside of the Queen Street Corridor (East and West) to go up North. After a brisk walk from the St Clair W subway station (things seem further apart up here) we arrived into a warm and exocticly decorated interior. This restaurant is smaller than I expected, but since they don't take reservations, by arriving before 7:30, we beat the crowds. We picked some drinks off the extensive cocktail list, but only after 10 minutes when the waiter came by the explain the specials and ask if we were ready to order.... I was parched and just wanted water.
After finally getting some water and the Tom (tom collins, but with lots of pulpy lime juice!) I was ready to order. The salads and appetizers, which are listed as 'small plates' on the menu are pretty darn big. I'm not used to these quantities in the downtown restaurants.
The Stinky salad could have used more stinky cheese, but the tempura vegetables were delicious with the spicy mayo dip. The special appetizer was big enough to be my main dish.
All of the mains at the table were quite good, including the steak, frites. -

I live in the area and have frequented The Rushton many times, however, I have noticed a decline in the food and service over the past couple of months. On busy nights they run out of popular items that are part of the specials and the wait staff is not aware/updated on what the kitchen has ran out of, which is sometimes several items on the specials. Wines, another shortage with wines, I have had to order 4 choices to eventually get something in stock. It's a disservice to repeat customers and new customers when their favorite and local restaurant becomes sloppy and careless. Both customers will not return, I recommended the Rushton to friends and they were not impressed. There's other great restaurants on St. Clair that I will and have been frequenting - try DeSotos, it's a great spot.

I came by late on a Thursday night with some friends and the place was packed. We only waited a few minutes for our table and the food was terrific. I had the steak and sweet potato fries and a very yummy creme brule. The wine was tasty too. My only complaint is that it is a touch squishy inside when full.

Good neighborhood restaurant. Good service. Food is consistently good: I especially love the Rack of Lamb and the Poutine (for the Americans, a poutine is a dish of fries topped with cheese curds, bacon and gravy - yum!). The ambience is casual, loud and comfortable. No reservations taken and the wait could get stupid. Nice patio for the summer.

We decided to try the Rushton out because we had loved Ferro and the two are connected. It was a totally different vibe. I liked the fact that it was relaxed and laid back. We were seated pretty quickly, having just walked the scant 10 minutes to get there. (I love our neighbourhood!) We began with risotto with creamy saffron sauce, lemon and seafood. It was the small size, but good enough for a meal if you are not that hungry. We shared it. I thought it was amazing. There was no skimping out on the seafood. The texture was, to me, excellent and risotto is just brutal to get right. I've made it a few times. I know how tough it is (So much work!!). My wife was not so happy with the lemon, yet I rather liked it. Different strokes I suppose. For dinner, I had the steak frites and creamy wild muchrooms. Now, I had not been that hungry when I arrived, so the appetiser had done a number on my appetite, but I will say that I gave it a valiant effort. The steak was cooked exactly perfectly (medium rare) and the regular and sweet potato fries were amazing. I will say that I am a mushroom fiend, so I'm always inclined to love mushrooms, but the creamy mushrooms were just amazing. I mean that. I was so glad to have leftovers the next day. My wife had the seafood linguine and greatly enjoyed it. I wish I had left room to try a bit myself. For dessert, I finished with the mango sorbet. It was very good, but seemed to have more of a gelato texture; not really a bad thing, just not as light. My wife had the blueberry sorbet and Milanese vanilla gelato. She loved the gelato, but was not so keen on the blueberry sorbet. She also loved my mango sorbet (cough, cough). I, however, thought the blueberry sorbet was amazing.
While I would not normally name the server, mostly since I'm terrible with names, I will say that we had Simon for a server and he did a great job. He was knowledgeable and quite funny. He seemed to get that we could handle some joking about and went with it. As a result, we just had a plain great time too.
Overall, I would recommend the Rushton. It's a little bit of everything cuisine-wise, which is not a bad thing. I'm looking forward to trying most of it. -

Great food - Lousy service
My fellow foodie-in-crime and I considered ourselves lucky to snag a table on a Saturday night at 7:00 without a wait. Oh my god, I couldn't believe how many tables were squeezed into this little place! It was so crammed that whenever someone would walk by you had to watch your table and hold onto your drinks. We almost lost our martinis thanks to our neighbor and his swinging jacket. The table on the other side of us eventually did lose a glass of wine from someone getting too close to their table. I don't know how the servers manage to get through the narrow aisles with food and drinks. Our server never brought us the bread he promised, our dinner took an hour to get to our table (highly recommend the blackened cod or the keith's pale ale battered fish and sweet potato fries), we had to ask the server where our food was and when it did finally arrive, he left to get us pepper and came back 10 minutes later. Our server never came back to see how we were doing or how things were and when our plates were cleared he passed the bill to another server who put it on our table. Maybe we wanted a dessert? a water refill? maybe coffee? Nope, they just gave us the bill. I'm not sure if I would go back - crammed in like sardines with bad service? Probably not. There are tons of great restaurants in the city - I won't even miss this one. -

great atmosphere and amazing patio. they used their space wisely. the food is horrible. muscles are okay and the burger is decent, but the food is very bad. its disappointing bc my friends often would love to hang out on their patio but if hungry we can't go there bc no one will eat their food.
