State & Main Kitchen & Bar - Etobicoke, Ontario

I came here this evening with my fiancé. I have to say I was very disappointed at the experience and in the quality of the food. While the staff were friendly, service was very slow. It took us a very long time to even just receive water when we sat ... down. We ordered drinks, an appetizer and steak entrees. The drinks were overly sweet. The calamari appetizer had very small pieces and some were burnt. The steaks were overdone and tough. We had asked for medium rare but they were close to well done. I do not recommend coming here if you are looking for a pleasant evening. Read more

We had dinner yesterday at this particular branch. Previously we used to go to the Kitchener one,quite a few times. We had the tomato- bacon soup and the Bang Bang Shrimp. Both dishes were fantastic. Our server was warm and unobtrusive. Shall definitely be going back for. mre !

This Father’s Day, we celebrated at State and Main in Etobicoke, a spot renowned for its relaxed atmosphere and dog-friendly patio. The welcoming staff found us a shaded table, and even our pup, Lucky, received a bowl of water. Arriving just in time for happy hour after 2 PM, I started ... with a refreshing Raspberry Dragon Fruit No-jito. For appetizers, we enjoyed the fish tacos, which featured crispy white fish topped with creamy avocado, fresh slaw, and a vibrant pico de gallo, all drizzled with a tangy garlic aioli. The bang bang shrimp stole the show with its light, crispy tempura batter and a delightful combination of spicy sriracha aioli and sweet unagi sauce, making each bite a perfect balance of flavors and textures. For the main course, I had the Bison Burger with truffle fries, which were perfectly seasoned and crispy. My wife chose the creamy Jalapeño Mac and Cheese, topped with toasted parmesan panko for an added crunch. My mom loved the fresh Cobb Salad, loaded with grilled chicken, crispy bacon, cheddar, and ripe avocado, while my dad enjoyed a hearty two-patty Main Burger. We wrapped up the meal with two delightful desserts. The chocolate brownie with ice cream was a decadent treat; the brownie was rich and fudgy, and the ice cream added a lovely contrast with its cool creaminess. The Strawberry Champagne Cheesecake was equally indulgent, with a velvety, smooth texture and a hint of champagne flavor, topped with a sweet strawberry coulis and a drizzle of chocolate sauce. It was gluten-free, which was a thoughtful touch for those with dietary needs. The inside of State and Main offers a spacious dining area with a bar for sports fans, but we loved the outdoor patio. Overall, our visit to State and Main was fantastic. The friendly service, great food, and dog-friendly environment made it a perfect choice for Father’s Day. We look forward to returning soon!

One word to describe this place: Wow 😍 everything was great and as good as it looks in the photos. Cocktail prices shocked us, $11 for an espresso martini and it was perfect! The soup dumplings were especially amazing. Can’t wait to come back here, and thank you Ethan for great ... service! Read more

We had a restaurant gift card and State & Main was one of the places that it could be used at. We had never been and decided to try them out. Service was great. Our waiter, we apologize as we cannot remember his name, was great and attentive. A ... bit of friendly small talk, asked questions, offered suggestions and here we go.... For starters, my "adult beverage" of choice is a Moscow Mule. Lately any I've had while out have been weak on ginger flavor (I swear some have been using Sprite). Well, not here at State & Main. It was fantastic! A real nice bite from the ginger. If I wasn't driving, I would have had 2 more. LOL! My wife really enjoyed her espresso martini. We shared the bang bang shrimp as an appetizer. Flavorful with a bit of heat. A good sized dish for two. My main was the French dip, aka beef dip. Delicious! Nice soft bread, tasty shaved beef and crispy fries with a dill dip (for the fries). If I had one complaint, needs more horseradish; not a hotter one but just more on the sandwich or some on the side 😋 My wife had the butter chicken and really enjoyed it. She made me try it because I hear "curry spice" and I'm like NOPE. It turns out that this one I like. We ordered a desert to go because we were too full... which the manager brought out to us, and had a little chat, thanking us for choosing this restaurant knowing it was our first time. That was nice. We plan on coming back. We decided to save our gift card for that next visit. Read more
