"It’s almost unfair to call this institution a mere restaurant–it’s more like a temple to the fine art of meat. Steaks are the name of the game here (there’s an entire menu dedicated to all the various cuts on offer), and Jacobs & Co. is known for offering up some of the finest meats in the world: from true A5 Japanese Wagyu, to decadent dry-aged porterhouses dry-aged for an astonishing 210 days, to some of the finest home-grown Canadian steaks, too. The sides, like duck fat French fries? No less decadent. The wines, with best-in-class bottles from around the world? Enough to make an oenophile blush. Combine all of that with an elegant ambiance, top-notch service, and the sound of piano music drifting over from a dignified bar area–and it’s easy to see what all the fuss is about." - Todd Plummer
