Pure Spirits Oyster House & Grill - Toronto, Ontario

A must visit for oyster lovers! The selection of oysters from different regions of Canada will agree to a variety of palates (my favs are from BC). Treat yourselves with a nice cocktail or their oyster shots - my personal fav on their new menu was the I Can Aloup ... cocktail (absolutely mouth watering candied cantaloupe as the garnish). The new snack platter was a feast as well! Loved their bang bang brocolli and fried okra fingers. Read more

I enjoyed the service by our lovely waitress . The lobster roll was really not good, it was too mayo saucy and too much dill. You could not taste the lobster at all. Why do they not just keep it simple and put butter on it? The shrimp pappardelle ... was good and the only reason I am giving them 3 stars. The oysters took way too long to be shucked and arrive to our table. The ceasar drink was not good either. Read more

Worth the stop! Staff was attentive and friendly. The mussels hot app came with so many, we filled up and didn’t have room for the meals we’d hoped to order! Super tasty and packed with protein. The Caesar’s were good, but nothing to write home about.

The crab cake is a must. Crispy on the outside and moist and soft on the inside. Comes with delicious arugula. Had Dixon point NB oysters, and PEI oysters tasted fresh. Ribeye steak was buttery, made well the way i like it -medium. The cut was decent. The mashed potato ... was comforting. Sea bream fish was scrumptious not sure if it had peach puree around it (correct me if I am wrong) but it was superb. 🤤Service was excellent. I will keep coming back to this place. Worth my bucks. 💯 Read more

We popped in during the Distillery District Christmas Market for early dinner and managed to grab a seat right away at the bar. The service was a little slow as the bar servers are fewer and further between than table servers however everyone was really nice including the Oyster shucking ... staff who even got in on the conversation as well. I had the dragon fruit iced tea which was lovely and refreshing. This is a true iced tea with minimal sugar. For eats, I have the Rockefeller Oysters which were like if oysters met cheesy bites - warm, crunchy top but a heartwarming center. I then had the crab poutine which was great taste. It was a very filling dish overall so you are getting your money worth. To close out, I had one of their shucked oysters. It was very fresh. The variety I chose was from the west coast menu and was quite fishy compared to some of the other varieties they serve. Overall, this was a great little place to grab a bite and the bar is a fun place to sit if you are looking to interact. Read more
