GEORGE Restaurant's Reviews and comments
A grand evening at George for a dual birthday celebration at the Chef’s table, where a playful Chef Lorenzo served three of our ten courses, and photobombed us. A perennial favorite and one of Toronto’s top two restaurants. Divine food creations, brilliantly creative flavors, stellar plating that is their hallmark, impeccable warm hospitality. Highest recommendation!
Amazing 7 course fine dining serve by attentive and professional server Paul. Wine is well paired with every dishes by cheerful Dilan. Serving was reasonably prompt meal after meal with lively young lady (didn’t get her name) introducing the ingredients for each plate served. Overall a positive experience.
We had the 7 courses degustation meal with pairing wines. The food is original and we were disappointed with only one plate that they changed for something else. Wines are great and Christina describe them perfectly!
Plates are big ! 7 courses is a lot at George. Great experience
Ordered a 3 course lunch menu,vegetarian for take out.
Was pleasantly surprised with the level of depth, texture and flavour while working with avocado (appetizer), tofu (main) and lemon (dessert). Vegetarian meals are often hard to capture well for fine dining as most restaurants stick to pasta only dishes but that is not the case, but they did a phenomenal job.
Every meal is well thought out and very delicious. Will definitely be returning.
GEORGE Restaurant is a hidden gem, in Toronto. My beautiful wife and I had our 2021 wedding anniversary here and we were very happy that we did. From start to finish, the experience was a very good one. The drinks were tasty and the meals were plated like artwork. Everything was delicious and the presentation was amazing.
Unique experience, friendly wait staff. Menu was thoughtfully curated. Great selection of vegetarian dishes available for their tasting menu. There was so much variety in the flavors that not one dish tasted the same. The only downfall I would say was how long the 10 course tasting menu took to get through. We were there for close to 4 hours. I wish we were warned ahead of time. The pace started off great but got a bit slow in the middle as the restaurant got a bit busy. Other than that, had a really great time.
George is definitely one of the finest places to dine in the city and one that will take your taste buds on a roller coaster.
We were lucky enough to try the 10 course tasting menu with the 10 wine pairings and we were in for a surprise. The staff are very knowledgeable with everything on your plate to the wine paired with it. Everyone in Toronto needs to try George at least once.
It's truly an ideal place to impress your loved one through a night of dining you both won't forget
Ordered 4 course tasting menu. Really good. While the portions may look small, but when eaten together did feel full and satisfied. All of the containers used were plant based which was a nice touch. Everything in the photos is how it was plated. Everything was packed nicely and in a big box, so easy to transport home.
This was our second experience at George Restaurant. The first time we went was 11 years ago on our first trip. The food and experience was just as good as we remembered. Its really a one of kind experience that is perfect for a date or special occasion. The service, food and wine was all top notch!
We had the most exceptional experience. It was a 7 course tasting menu with outstanding wines to pair with. Each course was unique but all of them were outstanding in their own way. I cannot wait to go back!
I just had my wedding at GEORGE and it was incredible! I worked with Sonia and she was so helpful and sweet. The server staff was amazing, so attentive and they knew exactly when to serve the next dish or pause for a speech. The venue is gorgeous and their recommended vendors were all amazing. Would highly recommend this venue if you’re looking to get married and don’t want to have to do all of the planning on your own! Thank you Sonia and GEORGE!
We were so pleased to have our wedding at George restaurant. The space and staff helped make planning a COVID-19 wedding such a breeze. There is a beautiful courtyard for an intimate and well ventilated event. Sonia Dhillon in particular helped smooth out the process and was with us every step of the way. We look forward to returning to the restaurant to relive some of the magic during our anniversary dinners at George restaurant. Photo credit to Tracey from Snapful Photography.
Overall, interesting flavour combinations and nice presentation - held back significantly by speed of service and planning (in my opinion).
Food - 3/5 for the price point. We had the seven course tasting menu and all dishes were plated quite nicely. Unfortunately George is not a Michelin starred restaurant so you won’t get that level of food - but it is passable for a tasting menu. Definitely a bit under par for price point - at about $150pp I usually expect more high end ingredients (I.e. wagyu, bluefin, lobster, etc)
Service - 5/5 for waiters, 1/5 for timing. Honestly this is no slack to the staff, everyone who waited on us was very friendly and welcoming. The main issue was timing - the seven course menu took over 3.5 hours to complete, with a 45 minute gap between course 3 and course 4. This is especially aggravating due to it being a tasting menu - thus the portions are very small (as they usually are). Honestly God bless our waiter Jacob - he apologized for the wait and they put the drinks on the house to compensate. Please be aware that you will be waiting very long though - the 10 course is supposed to take 4-5 hours to complete. We would highly recommend you get multiple rounds of bread so you don’t starve to death in between courses ($3 each btw).
Wonderful experience with the 7 course and wine pairings for two. Attentive staff. A few mistakes in the order but quickly rectified. Fine dining but not pretentious. Shame about the mouse trap in the corner but it’s a given in any
Big city!
Fantastic experience! Food was delicious! Tuna tartare, scallops, tenderloin - all really really good.
We booked George just a month before our wedding in August 2021. Sonia, the event coordinator, was amazing and went above and beyond in helping us prepare for the day. The restaurant is an amazing place for a wedding. Everything was very well organized and the staff were lovely. People commented that it was the best food they had ever had at a wedding. It’s a beautiful building and a hidden gem in the city. Thank you!
Delicious food. Good service. Nice atmosphere.
Our waitress entered the wrong total when passing me the debit machine ($70 more than the actual total).
The machine timed out. The waitress came back and put in the correct amount. It just seemed odd that she didn't acknowledge the error.
Proudly Canadian! 🇨🇦 The food and red wine were amazing. It was nice to say goodbye with dessert. Thanks for everything...
This is my favorite restaurant. I find myself coming here often and instead of the tasting menu, resorting to my favorite dish, the beef tenderloin. I usually just order the Tuna, Beef, and a dessert. Cannot go wrong with that combo.
Edit: I came here again and the waitress today was AMAZING. Service was the best, food was amazing in the 5 course. Wine was on point as well.
Went to celebrate a belated bday. We went with the 5 course tasting menu. The food was very creative and tasted great. The service was top notch too. The patio is beautiful and very relaxed atmosphere. The only comment I have about the food is the over use of mint. Mint was in all the dishes, and as I am not a huge fan of mint so for me it ruined the experience a little. The food was still delicious, and I recommend George
Supreme quality of food. But I found "too much salt" a customary here. Without the salt, definitely recommend !
Outdoor patio like seating but they don't have heaters for every table(potential areas of improvement).
Good restaurant, will try it out in summers.
Came here for our birthdays. Rustic yet elegant decor and seating. Everything was perfect from start to finish. Accommodating celiac was a piece of cake for them - which is something I rarely come across. Every ingredient involved has a part in creating these exquisite unique and very flavourful dishes. In conclusion, if i was rich, I would be here 2 times a week... ate least!
Mind blowing food!
We celebrated our engagement with a 7 course tasting menu and it was phenomenal! So much care and attention was given to each plate and it looked like a work of art! Every plate was delicious, and my favorite was the lobster. The service was superb! I look forward to dining here again.
The chef is incredible at this restaurant. We had the seven course tasting menu and every dish was creative and delicious. We also thought the wait staff was excellent. However, when we arrived, the front desk was super disorganized with the covid vaccination inspection routine which was irritating. The front desk people need a lesson in welcoming patrons.
The food was incredible. The wine pairings superb. I am so grateful for the hard work and care that everyone we interacted with demonstrated so that we could enjoy our first evening "out" in so long. If you want to celebrate all that it means to enjoy good food and wine, then George Restaurant should be on the to of your list.
The food was good and the courtyard was beautiful. What really put this place over the top was Paul's customer service. His recommendations on what to order were definitely on point, and i would come back just to interact with him again. Thanks Paul, would def recommend this place!
Great service! We had a wonderful time for my anniversary and my son’s birthday.
Try their tasting menu (7).
Thanks e really enjoyed being there. $$$$$ but it worth being there
A delightful and delicious experience. Beautiful venue and amazing staff. Professional, and very mindful of allergies. My belly is full and I'm happy! Would highly recommend for dinner or an event. The beef tenderloin and dessert were my two favorites!
Gorgeous, safe patio and excellent service. They've been going strong for 18 years and I wish them well.
WHAT TO TRY??
They have tasting menu as well as a-la-carte. I usually get the tasting menu because they are known for their tasting menu and sometimes it’s nice to have an element of surprise when I’m eating once in a while!
If you go for the tasting menu, I recommend the 5 course menu. Having a choice of either 5,7 or 10 courses, and I having tried the 5 and 7 course meals, I find the 5 course menu more than enough food to eat comfortably.
The menu is determined by the head chef ahead of time and not all people at the table may get the same dishes so it’s nice that there’s a variety there too! You can let the servers know your dietary restrictions and they will accommodate it! The dishes are created based on the ingredients in season and they try their best to source their ingredients at the local farms.
The tasting menu also has a vegetarian option and it is cheaper than the regular tasting menu so that’s great to accommodate those vegetarians too!
LAST TIP?!
This restaurant has a chef’s table where the table can see how the kitchen prepares the dishes via a mirror on the ceiling. If you want to see how busy the kitchen is and how they prepare your dish, you might want to request a table closer to the kitchen!
Great service and great wine paring. Sommelier was very knowledgeable with each wine they paired with the course menu. This was the second one time we were there. Enjoyed the flavor of the dishes but a little disappointed with the plating. The layouts look less interesting than the first time we were there. I would still recommend to make a visit there.
Fantastic food and service. No doubt one of the best restaurant in Toronto. There is really nothing to pick on the food, they are just perfect for my taste. I love their presentation on the dish too. Definitely will consider going back for that special occasion.
Dined here for a business meeting. Food was amazing! It's been a long time since I've visited this restaurant (pre COVID). I appreciate the shorter menu because it made it easier to decide. I also love their wine selection. Our server was also really nice and helpful with the menu.
Can't wait to be back!
This place is the bomb dot com. We did the 7 course blind tasting menu with wine pairing and my god was it phenomenal. Flavour explosions.
We went there for a dinner date. I indicated it when I booked the table, but there was no indication they received the message. My Seconds dish - duck with aebleskiver was disappointing as the duck meat was rubbery and luke warm. The rest of the meal was delicious and perfectly composed visually and delectable. We got 5 courses tasting menu which were all well explained to us. The sever did not have a name tag and we never learned his name. Overall disappointing for all the hype and $$$$$. Would not go back.
Went with my family who are vegan, vegetarian and meat eaters. It is hard to find a fine dining experience that's accommodating for all.
The food was excellent, service was fast and friendly, great selection of wine and drinks. Will definitely come back for more!
One of the best restaurant in Toronto. The staff is friendly and attentive. We dined in the patio and enjoyed it. The food quality was so good. It was so delicious and the plates were beautifully presented. I am a picky eater so I ordered from a la carte and loved the meals we ordered. Everything on the plate was so fresh and tasty. Also loved the desserts we ordered. Chocolate and lemon sorbet were one of the best sorbets I have ever had. I will definitely visit dine at this restaurant again.
Food was great! Couldn't ask for better presentation, taste and execution of the food. Only gave it 4 stars as the service was just average. It took a bit of time to order, get water top ups and for our plates to be taken away after each course. Overall a great place for a great meal.
Amazing experience
Great food and ambience
5 course meal. beautiful space. great service. plenty of great variety. we had fish/vegetarian no meat. great experience. you have to try at least once.
Our night at GEORGE was an unbelievable experience. Our waiter was attentive to our needs and well informed of my dietary restrictions ahead of time. The servers were all honest, genuine, and well versed in their food/wine. The dishes themselves were beautiful and combined fascinating flavours fluidly. Just fabulous.
Had the five course tasting menu at George and it was amazing! The ambiance is great and doesn’t feel too formal which is nice. The staff and servers are all very professional.
Great experience from start to finish. We opted for the a la carte menu but for my next visit I will try the tasting menu. 5 star food and service. Can't wait to go back again
Exceptional food we had the 5 course vegetarian tasting menu! The bar tender created custom made mocktails for us. A few of the dishes invoked spiritual experiences. Great service with laid back atmosphere too!
Partner and I got to experience the 10-course tasting menu and my goodness were we ever floored. From beginning to end, each course was fighting to out-do the last. Each plate was meticulously and beautifully assembled. More importantly, the flavors were out of this world. The combinations of contrasting and complimentary flavours were some of the most complex flavours I've tasted. First squab I've ever tried and now I'm hooked.
If you're a true foodie and have no restrictions on your food i.e. not picky, I highly recommend this experience. It's hella pricey but well worth its price point. Great for special occasions. I'm still dreaming of this meal even weeks later. Amazing!
Beautiful night, charming service and wonderful meal. Best dinner in the city. Had a lovely romantic meal last month and loved it so much we came back again with friends. Had an even better dinner and a night to remember. So glad Covid is over. Thanks for a delightful and fun evening to Lorenzo and all the great staff.
Exquisite presentation, great tasting dishes.
Amazing 7 course experience. Food and staff were wonderful and the wine pairings were spot on. If you have three hours to spare and want to enjoy a wonderful evening, look no further.
Attended as part of a work function. Amazing food. I'm not a seafood person but I tried what they made for us and really enjoyed it. Nice and courteous staff.
Hands down, one of the best restaurants I've ever been to. The service, the food, our seats, the pace of the tasting menu, the amazing pairings -- everything was impeccable from start to finish. The plates were inventive, beautifully presented but more important than anything else, they were all delicious. What is even more impressive is how well they predicted my preferences! Oh, did I mention we got almost completely different 7-course menus AND pairings? That has never happened in all of the tasting menus I've had and it was amazing. Everything my partner got, I liked less than my own plate. Probably coincidence, but maybe they've got data metrics on this stuff (female vs male preferences??). The one little issue I had with George was our first cocktail upon arrival. They were incredibly overpriced - $9 for half of an Old Fashioned, $18 for the regular sized cocktail. We both got a half size, and it was in a massive cup with a big ice cube with barely an oz. of liquid in the cup. It didn't get cold and the ice cube kept hitting our mouth. Not the best way to serve a half drink. Anyway, everything else more than made up for that but I'm definitely skipping the cocktails next time. Hopefully will return and try the 10 course tasting instead.
Went there for Christmas party. Very upscale dining experience. The servers were well dressed and really humble. The seating wasn’t that comfortable, really congested table spacings.
Food was amazing. Very small portion for the price but the taste showed great culinary skill.
Service was not consistent. There were significant delays between severing food to each members of the table.
Overall, it was great experience. Its more of upscale dining experience and not the food when you visit George.
Seven course vegetarian tasting menu. Absolutely delicious! Three hours of food and I would highly recommend the experience.
Such amazing gelato and service! I called ahead to see if possible to arrange pickup order to be brought to my car, only to get stuck in downpour! When I called to say I arrived but ok to wait for rain to stop, the order was brought to my car - in the rain - by the talented (and clearly very kind) chef! Grazie mille!!! Ps. Added copy of photo from Instagram because the gelato was so tasty we forgot to take a photo!
What can I say, its George. If you haven't been, its definitely worth a try. Our go to place for anniversaries and birthdays.
Upscale without the pretentious vibe. Love! The food will cost you, but it's absolutely delicious. Excellent service and someone to assist you with each part of the experience - from the sommelier to the servers explaining each exquisite dish.
A classic place with great food and romantic vibe. The food looks so simple, but you will taste the difference as soon as you have the first bite. I absolutely love this place.
I went the other day for a girls dinner and was blown away. We sat on the patio which was stunning and had a lovely ambiance. The food was absolutely to die for!!! We ordered off the 5 course menu! Staff was so friendly and helpful. My favourite part about this restaurant was the fancy yet comforting vibe I got looking around! Pricy but worth it!
Really excellent food/service to treat yourself. Did the 7 course tasting and it was very filling. You can't stop eating because it's very delicious.
Great food and service. Nice touch with the couches. Recommend parking in the lot across the street, if street parking make sure to park west of the restaurant.
Enzo was great to us. Perfect place for vegans too!!!!!!
I had my wedding here and it was spectacular. Cannot recommend highly enough. The food was phenomenal (we had a five course menu), the service was amazing, and the co-ordination by Shanna was so wonderfully helpful. It you are looking for a very classy place to have your wedding, this is the place. A number of guests came up and told me that it was the best wedding they'd ever been to, including their own. The venue was very accommodating of my dietary restrictions and made an entirely gluten free menu for me, for the whole celebration.
Just an incredible experience start to finish. Had a 5 course tasting menu with wine pairings and the flavours and colours were mesmerizing. A special occasion restaurant!
Had the seven course menu and each course was a double course so you actually get to try 14 dishes if your partner is willing to share! Delicious and creative from beginning to end. Portions were much larger than any usual tasting menus.
We came here for our wedding anniversary. We really loved the vibe of the patio - spacious and private! Unfortunately the service was very slow. We weren’t offered water until 20 min into our reservation, we were never asked if we wanted refills for our water or cocktails, and the tasting menu was very slow to arrive - sometimes 30 min between plates. They also confused our order at one point, taking away my partner’s plate just as she was about to eat. They sped up near the end when the restaurant became less busy but we got out of our 8pm reservation at around 11pm. I will say the food was very good but I don’t know if I would return based on the service.
Perfect swine cuisine very good texture tastes too much like grandma though would recommend
The food was outstanding! The taster’s menu was beautifully presented and was absolutely incredible. The foie gras just melted and was probably the best I’ve ever tasted.
The rabbit course was unbelievable and then the dessert courses! Oh my goodness - my husband has the cheesecake and I had the olive oil sponge. Both were so decadent.
It is definitely a place to return for special occasions.
I've been to Georges about three times over the past few years - usually due to others inviting me there. It's a decent restaurant although not one I would select in particular. We had the Seven course tasting menu with wine pairings: their wine pours are very generous. I usually always get wine pairings at restaurants and I had not been that buzzed in a long time. Overall the atmosphere has always been nice albeit always packed. And the service has been very good. The food is okay - maybe 7 or 8 out of 10. It's good to try although I've been here a few times so most likely will check out other spots in the city before returning again soon
Loved every dish that we were served. Service was impeccable. The atmosphere on the patio was very relaxing. It is expensive, but a great place to go to to celebrate a special occasion.
Food is decent and has bold unique flavors but given the price it's about ok value. Service a bit slow. Waited for more than 40 minutes for the second course to arrive. Tried to ask the waiter if he can speed it up but he said no because there is nothing they can do about the kitchen. A bit odd given the restaurant prizes itself as fine dinning there should be more coordination.
This place is exquisite!! the food was to die for and the staff was so nice and attentive. will define fully be coming back for more
Our second time there and the 5/7 course menu is amazing. It's pricey but worth it as a special night out.
Food was very good! Service was uneven and at times delayed. For awareness, 7 course meal took just over 3 hours. Had I known I would not have ordered. For the price point, don’t feel the experience was enough to go back.
Absolutely superb dinner in the Courtyard. Beautifully prepared and presented. Taste, textures, unique combinations, balance. Attentive service. Chose from the a la carte menu. Will try the tasting menu next time.
Pricey but great food and services
We had a visitor from out of the country whom we were trying to persuade to come to Toronto and we could not have picked a better restaurant. The five course tasting menu was superb. Each of us had our own variation on the featured item from seafood, to foie gras to tenderloin to desert. Each was outstanding. The service was impeccable and the sommelier gave amazing suggestions. A great evening.
Experiencing George is like going on vacation in Toronto - going through the different dishes is definitely a wonderful journey. Walking up to George you may not quite be sure of what to expect. However, once you get in you realize this is going to be different. You are immediately whisked away to a true dining experience.
Everything was top-class and exquisite. Our waitress for the day was very helpful. She encouraged us to go with the 7 course option as she stated that it was the best bang for your buck. She did not try to "up-sell" us to the 10 course option. She told us that we would certainly have enough by going with the 7 course. I can genuinely say that from start to finish everything was exceptional. There was nothing I felt like was over/under-cooked and the service was beyond belief. We were never made to wait and it was a really great choice for our anniversary. Every aspect of the dinner seemed focus on making your experience completely enjoyable.
Everything we tasted was so rich and flavorful, and they were a delight visually (see pictures). It's a place I would definitely return to in order to get a taste of different tastings on offer.
We really cannot complain about anything we had and if you are not sure if you should go I would say totally take the plunge and do it. You will not regret it. 100% Recommend it!
We don't do wine/alcohol so the whole thing cost us about $375 including tips and everything.
Hands down the best restaurant we've been to in Canada. This restaurant should get at least one Michelin star, if not two. The tasting menu with the wine pairing was one of the best culinary experiences we've ever had. Superb!!
Decadent meal. The patio was beautiful. The service was impeccable.
4.6 Loved it here. Food, wine flight and staff were all great. Would be good to see non-alcoholic beers here and non-alcoholic wine flights/drinks too.
Delicious and well crafted tasting menu. My dining partner and I were each served unique dishes, which made the meal feel that much more unique. Cocktails were also very well balanced and delicious.
Ordered Valentine's delivery. They offered a 5 course tasting menu. Everything arrived early, plating looked beautiful despite transport, and it came with specific and simple reheating instructions for their oven proof serving containers. Felt like we were in the restaurant with minimal effort on our part. Food was cooked perfectly and every course was delicious. Really appreciate what you guys pulled off through a delivery service. If we could rate it higher we would!
Excellent food. Each person eats a different meal, creating two completely unique experiences. Highly recommended. Drinks were excellent too.
Great food. Great service. Great restaurant.
I often go here with my friends. I love everything.
Fantastic venue for small group corporate events, social functions or family get togethers, run by George Brown College and the students in their programs. Really great value for your dollar because of this.
Awesome! We went there for my husband's birthday. We loved the three course tasting lunch menu, chef's signature. The courses are 'surprises' that the waiter describes and explains. Neither of us received the same dish. Taste was delicious! Very flavorfoul food. We had tartare, lamb, steak and amazing desserts. All dishes combined tasty sauces and exotic tastes. Chef was very kind and sent us a complimentary dish.
Service was very helpful. We went there with our 4 months old baby and they accomodate everything for our stroller to fit in. Service was friendly, attentive and professional. It was an amazing food experience.
Only thing I regret is that we wanted the chef to chat with us for a bit since we were the only ones at the restaurant on a monday at 1:30pm.
Good wine program - they should do something about the mosquitoes though!
Top notch take home experience. Did the tasting course with cheese, brioche, two cocktails. Amazing experience. Great quality food. Travelled well. Good amount. Very well done.
Amazing food, would recommend checking the place out
We dined tonight at George in Toronto and the food was amazing! What was even more amazing was the sommelier, Christina, and the excellent wines she sourced. She had terrific attention to detail.
Needless to say, we were wow'd and are very grateful for the amazing job the restaurant did not, only with the food but most especially with our sommelier and the wines she presented.
The service was really good - atmosphere is nice - lovely wine - Food is good but a bit expensive though - the soup of the day was artichokes but it was tasteless, everything else was good.
We had the 10-course meal with wine and cocktails for my birthday and it was probably the best meal (and most expensive) I’ve ever had. I’m knocking off a star for the bus boy who kept trying to take my plate away before I finished. Please wait until everyone is done eating before clearing our plates!
Delicious tasting menu!!! A great culinary experience for foodies!!!! Pricey but worth it! Especially for special occasions!!!
Great tasting menu and amazing service.
The cuisine is good, I would not say that "wow" - but quite good for our city. The only thing I would like to note is that one of the salads was a little sour, so I told the waiter about it, a girl came up to us and apologized, offered to redo the salad, we refused, because, in fact, the bellies were already full, then she said that we would get a discount, for this plus of course. The bill was the average for the city, about the same amount we spent in other establishments. We will definitely come again sometime.
Great food, always in my top 3 in Toronto for tasting menu.
The quality is unbeatable and most probably the best in the area, but the price can be more value for money.
So happy with our dinner. GREAT evening, quality food, if you want the best, go to GEORGE.
Amazing. I definitely recommend the 5 or 7 course options. They are also very accommodating with food restrictions.
Absolutely amazing! We ordered the 4-course takeout menu and everything was delicious and beautifully presented. They also went out of their way to create a custom menu card for our anniversary which we really appreciated. Thank you so much George! We will definitely be visiting you once the lockdown is over.
One of the most underrated restaurants in the city.
It was my birthday and felt I could have a special evening at George with my closest friends. The ambiance was absolutely lovely. The service was on par. The meats were really good and perfectly cooked - but too many flavours in the accompanying parts. Instead of elevating the taste of the meat, they overpowered. Taking something that would be perfect when done simply, into too much all at once. It would take something very special for me to go back. I am giving three stars based on the over complexity of the food, but the wine and ambiance, service were great.
Beautiful and cozy setting at the courtyard. I really need to give credit to their thoughtfulness. Sheepskin on every seat, heater underneath the table, patio gas heater beside every table. Blanket will be provided if you still feel cold. I love the varieties of the tasting menu options. Presentation and plating were quite impressive. Trout and lambs dishes were my favourite dishes. I’m looking forward to go back again after the lockdown ends in Toronto.
