The CityEvents team attended last weeks Opening Party of the Copacabana Brazilian Steakhouse on Adelaide Street West. You might have already experienced the Copacabana’s concept as they also have a restaurant on Eglinton Street East and in Niagara Falls.
Copacabana is a unique and exciting concept : superior food quality, exceptional service -waiters are moving around the restaurant with seasoned and perfectly grilled meat, you will definitely remember your night over there!
Beside the grilled meat, you can also enjoy a huge and de-li-cious buffet : pasta, salad, vegetables, fruit, cheese… It will satisfy any appetite for sure!
Copacabana is an all you can eat with a fixed price of ($37 during the week and $45 on the weekend). We ate so well that night, the meat was perfectly roasted and there were more side dishes than we could try.
Beside their delicious food, you will enjoy this beautiful venue which can fit until 320 guests seated, on two floors where you will also enjoy their live entertainment! The top patio is the highlight with an open concept over Adelaide Street. The patio has already been booked for a number of corporate events and BBQ’s. It is a perfect spot for your office afternoon summer social.
Here are their 3 addresses (Make a reservation by clicking on the restaurant you want!)

On June 19th at the Distillery District, CityEvents attended the Opening of a new French gem located on Tank House. Enter the “Cluny Bistro and Boulangerie” and you are already in a Parisian restaurant style: Escargot, frog’s thighs, Oysters, Coquilles Saint Jacques, French-Style bread with its butter, Macarons, Tartelettes.

The themed cocktails and wines were served and our French CityEvents staff from France felt nostalgic while tasting French food and wine. The space is inspired by the french style and decorated like a Parisan restaurant, even well known french music were playing such as the famous song of France Gall – Poupée de cire, pourpée de son, by Serge Gainsbourg. If you want to escape to to a resto with a little bit to France, you know where to go!
