Shark Club Sports Bar & Grill

So if youre looking for cute women… This is your spot. If you’re looking for good food… Keep looking.
I ordered the Steak and Prawns for $ 27.99– kind of expensive but I wanted to treat myself– as did my buddy. So heres why I have 1 star.
I asked to replace the potatoes with more vegetables– my buddy got 5 small potatoes and veggies while I got maybe 3 extra pieces of carrots– lame.
I also paid $ 1 to get mushrooms– so this included literally half of a button mushroom cut into 7 peices…
Now onto the «prawn». These so-​called Prawns are actually cocktail shrimp– and small ones for that matter. And I was only given 3… Three small shrimps. What the hell?!?
So obviously this bar– thats what it is and not a restaurant– isnt meant for delish meals but for beer, sports and boobs.

This review was long overdue. My one and only encounter with this pretentious for no reason establishment was one for the books. I had ventured out with a friend to try this place out. Not trying to be overly impressed because, at the end of the day, its bar food. Now the server, I’d rather not name names, was ingeniune with her «girlfriend» approach by continuously sitting down beside us to help pick out a meal. I sense fakeness from a mile but i can’t knock a girl’s hustle :). As present as the server seemed when she would show up, she never checked on us and it took 45 min to get the bill. So my friend and i played along, being courteous, respectul and patient. We never gave any inkling that we wouldn’t tip (my motto is «do not go out to eat if youre unable to tip your server and BOH»). When the bill, came my friend and i had noted that there had been an automated gratuity added to A TABLE FOR TWO!!! (not a «race baiter» but come onnn and the server was also black… tf?) Livid af, we wrote a detailed message to management to rectify the situation. A $ 50 gift card was granted however the change in management and the format of the feedback form made it virtually impossible to track the original complaint. Needless to say, they missed their chance to wow us and we won’t be returning :)

What an improvement from prior experience. I frequent Shark Club often because it is located near my work. Every time I dine here, the food was disappointingly average. However, today was game-​changing. Our server kept recommending their Double-​Fisted Burger ($ 12.99). I thought about it, chuckled…
And said «sure».
The burger was beyond bar/​pub burgers and the meat was perfectly moist. Large strips of bacon, lettuce tomato, and melted cheddar were included. Amusingly, the patty was two fist worth of beef.
There are always promotions at Sharks’ so drinks kept flowing. Domestic pints ($ 5.50) are all day promotions. Not a bad place for cheap drinks.
Sadly, our server decided to play a game of hide and seek towards the end of the night without notice. Don’t expect speedy service after your food arrives.
No sharks are served at this establishment.

Wow. Let me just start this with. This place has terrible management. If I could, I’d give this place zero stars. I went here with a few friends, and we ordered drinks, celebrating our first time in Canada. However, management (Brianna) saw fit to charge us TRIPLE the price for shots («on accident»). We got a bill for almost $ 400, and they quickly refused to talk reasonably about the bill. DO NOT DRINK HERE FOR FUN! They WILL try to over-​charge you, and there is no way to get out of it because, like they did to us, the whole bar starts to gang up against you. HERE IS THE WORST PART: I asked for the managers card, AND THEY GAVE US A CARD WITH THE DJ’s NUMBER! This place is irresponsible and inconsiderate! Americans and Canadians be warned!

Not a very good food place. My friend and I decided to give this a try since we’ve both never been. The food selection was pretty bad… Ended up getting a poutine which was pretty disappointing in taste. And our waitress was never around for us to ask for anything… Also, the music seemed to be really loud where we were sitting I had to shout for my friend to hear me across the table… I felt like it was a club.
Overall not a good experience overall

This has gotta be one of the worst poutines I’ve ever eaten. Cheese curds with sharp cheddar and an odd garlic taste. Very disappointed.
What makes it even worse is when your server collects a plate from your table that looks EXACTLY the same as when they dropped it off and has nothing to say about it.

Came here after watching a movie so both of us were looking tired, got a grilling by the security guard about pre-​drinking and a lot of other accusations which really pissed me off. Normally I just walk away at that point, but my friend wanted to visit, so I played along.
Music is a mash of new pop/​rap music and edm which isnt too bad. Plenty of screens which have most things on, but I was surprised that at least half were playing the news which was boring. Drink selection is decent, the place has plenty of seating and its clean. Service here is near non existent, since I had to go up to the bar twice just to get a server then it took roughly 30min just to get simple drinks. The food here really is terrible, avoid it like the plague.
Great location, yet terrible people, go next door to milestones and have a better time

Sweet sports bar with killer view of yonge dundas square. Service is really nice… and food menu specials are awesome $$. Go for the game or for specials. Burger night is the best, Thursday I think. Wings are kind of small, but decent.

DJ was pretty horrible. He’s too busy talking to girls than doing his job. I came here to watch the blue Jay game and the music just took over the game. He kept forgetting to switch it over. Ruined the game and also my first experience here. Sucks because the food and hostess were great.

Never coming back here. My friend and I decided to come here to watch the hockey game. We sat down, asked them to put it on one of the screens. Our server disappeared for twenty minutes, didn’t come back to get our order and didn’t put the game up. We asked another server. And another. Finally another server tried but said they didn’t get any hockey games.
A sports bar. In Toronto. In Canada. There are six hockey games on and this place doesn’t get a single one?
We asked for the bill for our drinks so we could leave. That took another twenty minutes, not exaggerating. We will never come back here.

Came here after a birthday dinner for one of our friends. There are A LOT of TV’s here which is a plus especially during game night.
I’m not sure if I can give this place 2 stars since all we had were drinks. But the drink specials for the night were mediocre at best. It was a Saturday night and they had 2oz of ciroc vodka for about 6.99 I believe. But my friends said it tasted water downed. The flavours weren’t the best either. I would have preferred to go JOEYS Thursday night drink special for that. Service was also mediocre. Kind of slow kind of okay at times. The washrooms were kind of gross. Tissue everywhere but I guess that is normal.

We decided to try this place. The first thing I noticed was the loud music, I had difficulty hearing the server explain the happy hour specials. He did recommend me a good beer. I had the fish and chip burger. The fish in the burger was moist and tasty but the chips were a bit too crispy. There was a side salad but it had too much dressing. It is a nice restaurant but too noisy for me.

Decent bar at a good location. Tons of flat screen TVs with all sorts of sports on. The food however is medicore and I wouldn’t recommend you go here unless watching sports is your thing.

We were looking to burn some time before seeing a movie and noticed a board advertising happy hour. We went up to the hostess and asked her what the happy hour specials were. The tight black dress must have cut off circulation to her brain because she giggled and said «I don’t know.» She then opened the menu and showed up the daily specials. Needless to say we declined to go in.

Been coming here for awhile and although yes they lack a patio it is still one of the best places to watch sports.
The manager (aussie dude) has been super helpful on many occasions. The staff are really on par with anywhere else around here.
Being a football fan I have always been able to come here on an afternoon and ask for the game to be shown on TV and they have always been able to assist, as long as the game is showing that is.
More recently I called to reserve an area for a large group to watch the European Cup Final and again it was hassle free, had a great section and our waitress Kimberly was super attentive.
I like the beer selection here, especially since they have the elusive Kronenbourg 1664 Blanc on tap.
The food is nothing that will blow your mind but people generally don’t come here for that. It is after all a sports bar and they do that very well.
Just a note, super nice washrooms with a great view of the Y&D square.

I was already far from impressed with this place before my last visit. After being convinced by my friend (who lives close by) to give this place another shot, I will most certainly not make that mistake again.
Someone can ignore this place’s obnoxious and unnecessarily loud music, playing in a failed attempt to combine lounge/​club with sports bar. However, the mediocre food is nowhere near good enough to justify the high prices or terribly poor service. The customer service was sub-​par the previous time I was here, but this last visit ensured I will not come back to Shark Club.
We excused having to wait 10 minutes before our waitress Niki even came by to give us menus, despite it not actually being that busy. We excused her not bringing us utensils until we asked. My patience wore thin when I had to try and flag down Niki 4 TIMES so we could place our order. The first time she walked right by us, I assumed she must not have noticed us. The second time (and knowing she looked right at me), I assumed she had to do something else and would be back promptly. This happened two more times where the waitress looked right at us, and then proceeded to ignore — no signal or acknowledgement at all.
After finally being able to order, and receiving our food/​beers, we asked for a few glasses of water. Given our waitress’ terrible customer service up to that point, I actually bet my friend that she would not bring the waters to us — I won that bet. About 20 minutes after our request, and noticing that Niki was too busy sitting/​chatting with some guys at another table that were not even her customers (i.e. she was not working), we went to the bar and grabbed our waters ourselves.
The only positive about this place is its convenient location at Yonge/​Dundas. With this terrible service and mediocre food, people are going to start realizing that they can get decent beer/​bar food at lower prices at a slew of other places in this area. For me, I already gave Shark Club one chance too many…

The last two times I came here I was not greeted with respect. First time I was told «We are all full» and nothing else. I was not even offered a wait time. When I did ask they told me «Sorry we are all full».
The last time I went no one was at the door to serve me so I asked the door man if I could get a table and I was told «We’re all full» l. I refused to accept that as an answer and walked in myself and found an empty table and sat there with my friends.
Never again.
Food is so-​so.

Not sure what’s going on at this place. Showed up around 9pm to watch the hockey game, and they had ridiculously loud club music playing. I don’t really understand why. Prices are too high, particularly for wings. Beer selection isn’t great. Service was genuinely not bad at all, but the ridiculous confusion of this bar’s identity means you should probably not watch the game here.

This place seems to get a lot of negative reviews, but we came here to watch a Flames playoff game. During the game beforehand, it was obnoxious, and super loud — there was a DJ playing in between each play, and the music was way too loud.
However, as soon as that game ended and the Flames game come on, the place was much more enjoyable. We moved to the bar to take in the large screen. The staff treated us politely, and the manager even made sure to come over after he noticed other fans drunkenly yelling at us from across the bar. Very commendable that he noticed, and took time to ensure we weren’t feeling harassed (which we weren’t).
The food is standard pub fare, and the drinks as well, but it you want to catch a game, they have a lot of TVs and good service.

Other then the Real Sports Bar, the Shark Club is the only other bar with lots of screens and TV’s to watch your games on. They have side scoreboards making the atmosphere like an actual stadium/​arena.
Being located at the corner of Dundas and Yonge, or in otherwords the Canadian Time Square, you get a 4 floor high rise filled with stores, restaurants, bars and a theatre. With the Shark Club located on the 3^rd floor, you get a great view from the windows of the busy intersection of Dundas and Yonge and Eaton Centre.
The bar is dark, loud and filled with TV’s to watch any game you want. The seating is spacious and can hold a lot of customers.
The massive bar in the middle of the restaurant along with massive TV behind it, gives you a big vibrant feel and somehow makes me want to drink more. It’s all an illusion.
The food is fair and nothing special. Like any other bar. They have daily specials for food and drinks and the deals are not too bad. Check out the menu —
With Jack Astors and Milestones in the same building and many other bars surrounding it, I would go to Shark Club first.
