Reefnbeef Steakhouse - Collingwood

Great little restaurant. Delicious food. The steak is very tasty and cooked to perfection. The lobster tails were large and very flavourful. It was a quiet atmosphere with lots of delicious items on the menu to choose from. The only thing that I felt needed to improve was the garlic mash potatoes, I didn't taste much garlic, but the rest of the meal compensated for that.Great service.

The warm smile and friendly greeting from the front-of-house staffer set the tone for a delightful lunch at this less than 2 years old restaurant in Collingwood. The location in a small strip plaza is an easy walk from downtown — or a very quick drive — belies the large and well-appointed interior. Tables and booths are positioned for comfort and privacy and we asked for a table near the window so we could enjoy some of the rarely seen summer sunshine.Described in its name as a steakhouse, the menu certainly shows a much wider selection than one would expect. Appetizers ranged from soups and salads to mussels, scallops, calamari or even crab cakes while the main course selection on the lunchtime menu would, I expect, satisfy most. My two companions quickly settled on the Steak and Guinness Pie — one with a salad and the other with the house fries. As tempting as it was to do the same my eyes settled on the 8oz Haddock in traditional beer batter.The drinks order arrived quickly with a diet Pepsi for the designated driver and our attention then turned to the décor and the general atmosphere. This is a smart and attractive place that would be appropriate for a family celebration, a business lunch or as we were, friends enjoying time together.Now to the food: the Steak and Guinness pies received immediate and ongoing rave reviews. The rich, dark gravy eliciting an “oh, this is so good.” My Haddock was even better than the promise of “I think you will enjoy it.” from our server, Tracy. Tracy by the way, managed to achieve that rare balance of somehow being there when a top-up of water was needed but without the hovering sometimes seen and experienced. For those with a mobility challenge the entrance should not be a problem and once inside there is room-a-plenty between tables for a walker or wheelchair. The washrooms are located on the main floor too, which from this senior’s perspective is a real plus.Not only was our party impressed with the experience but I should note that the prices on the menu represent very good value. My 8oz Haddock with all the trimmings at $13 was excellent and many of us will have paid far more for what, in my experience, hasn’t come close to this well-cooked and presented plate.Maybe we hit the Reef and Beef on the perfect day but my impression, and from the other reviews seen, it is that this restaurateur and his team have their act together.Long may they continue to deliver good food and at fair value and with a sense that you are a truly welcome guest in their establishment.

My husband and I attended this restaurant during our visit. It had very friendly staff and the food was great. I had the lobster tails and my husband had a steak and both were excellent. Reasonably priced for the high quality of food. I would go back and would highly recommend everyone to try as well.

We were looking for a restaurant for my dad's birthday and what a surprise this restaurant was amazing! The food was great and the restaurant was beautiful. What made it even better was the waitress Vicky who was very kind, nice and welcoming which made our experience much more enjoyable.

We were looking for a nice restaurant while in the Blue Mountains for our extended family. We found the ReefnBeet and were very extremely happy with our choice. They accommodated our group and we had the best restaurant meal in our visit between Collingwood, Niagara and Toronto! Everything was wonderful. Great food and service. We had a variety between our group from a Moroccan Tijane to seafood to pasta to schnitzel. We tried many of the desserts and they were terrific as well.
