For the real deal with read food, you guys should try the Surf&Turf Fest at Hart House, it's a far cry from Boat House and it really isn't that much more expensive (though no coupons available) http://www.harthouserestaurant.c ... HR_SurfTurfMenu.pdf
We go to Hart House quite often. My husband and i tried the surf&turf Fest (which basically, steak & lobster) last week and it tasted great as usual.
I work close to Hart House, so everytime our company has any function, we would pick Hart House because of their quality (and also close to us).
We were going to try boathouse, but after seeing all the comments here, we might hold off now.
went there tonight... food is just so-so, and as always they messed up my bill (every single time when i use my gift cert they always forgot to take the $25 off... EVERY TIME)
