“Our newest opening in Toronto, Downtown is an exciting milestone for our team, helping us to continue creating signature and memorable moments for our guests,” shares Dave Campbell, President & COO of Chop Steakhouse & Bar. “For over 17 years, we have worked diligently to challenge the status quo of steakhouses with a menu that is designed to center flavour, quality ingredients, and innovation. Our goal is to take a simple dining experience, elevate it, and turn it into something truly special.”
Set over an incredible 11,000 feet, Chop Toronto Downtown’s two-floor layout fosters an approachable atmosphere that balances connection, sophistication, and comfort.

Visitors will truly enjoy a modern space that showcases the very best of Chop’s enlightened hospitality, all under the experienced guidance of owners Steve Tokos and Suhani Kapadia.
“This opening has been two years in the making, and a vision I’ve held for over 15 years since starting with Northland,” explains Steve Tokos, Owner of Chop Toronto, Downtown. “It’s especially meaningful for Suhani and me, as bringing this project to life has been a remarkable challenge. However, we are confident that we’ll make a strong impression with the incredible team we have, and become a favorite destination for our downtown Toronto guests.”
