I really thought she was the owner , as the level of commitment to a positive customer experience felt like it could only come from someone highly invested in the success of their business. Thank you for a fabulous experience and your passion . Really uplifting ☀“

“If you are looking for incredible tasting food, quality ingredients, environmental sustainability, a trendy and tranquil café vibe, detailed dietary accommodations, and complete transparency, this is your spot. You can tell that Chef Ishan and his team truly care about the food and experience they are offering to their guests and go out of their way to offer suggestions, provide any information you need and offer delicious bonuses throughout your meal. There is a fantastic range of options on their menu making it an excellent spot to stop for a specialty drink and appetizer, breakfast, lunch, dinner, dessert or cocktail hour. With every bite you can taste the quality of what you are eating. I ate there with my 3 and 6 year old recently and they loved it just as much as I did. I highly recommend everyone visits this unique spot and appreciates their ethos for themselves! If I lived in Toronto I would definitely be a regular customer.“

“The food is phenomenal!!!🫶🏻“

“If you appreciate the absolute pinnacle of culinary precision, understated elegance & world-class hospitality, Alo is not merely a restaurant—it is a masterclass in modern fine dining. Discreetly tucked away on the top floor of a Victorian building at Spadina and Queen, stepping out of the elevator into this minimalist, polished space feels like entering a private, elevated sanctuary far above the noise of the city.

The atmosphere is effortlessly sophisticated: muted tones, warm ambient lighting & a seamlessly orchestrated front-of-house team that operates with quiet, surgical choreography. There is zero posturing here - just pure, unadulterated dedication to the craft.“

“25 Aug 2026 The pricing works well with the starter and main meal option. I ordered a broccoli starter and soba noodles with broccoli, tofu, and sauce, plus paid a little extra for a fresh golden juice. The portion was generous and filling — I even had to pack the rest to go. The restaurant has a beautiful fine‑dining style with several indoor seating options, making it a comfortable place to enjoy a meal. Overall, I’d definitely come again to try other dishes.“

“A favourite of mine. It feels like stepping into a cozy witches’ home with the decor and the cutlery! We have been coming back for the past 3 years, and Hawker always delivers.

Order the Briani and the housemade coke!“

“A lovely modern bistro tucked away in Kensington Market and a great spot for a date night. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the service was attentive throughout the meal.

We enjoyed the food. The mackerel crudo was clean, refreshing and nicely prepared. The chicken liver ravioli did not disappoint, especially when paired with the bread we ordered. We also shared the steak and had a strawberry dessert at the end.

Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience, and since they change the menu regularly, we would definitely come back to try more dishes in the future.“

“Delicious vegan Caribbean food in the heart of Kensington Market. Veggie D'light hits the spot for lunch on a weekend. I had their meal with jerk saitan, veggies and basmati/quinoa. I asked about the soup of the day and was promptly offered a taste by the friendly chef. Had the medium soup as well--a delicious rich soup with yams and coconut milk. Now I have a new favorite lunch spot.“

“My favorite dinner we had in Toronto goes to Antler. Nothing but exceptional food and service. We did the Chef's table, which literally and 2 seats on the kitchen window. Great experience! The Duck A L'Orange was one of the best cocktails we've ever had! Food was all served personally by the Sous Chef and it was great talking with him about the dishes. Menu consisted of Smoked Swordfish Carpaccio, Mushroom Bolognese (amazing), BC Halibut, perfect Duck Breast with their BBQ sauce and smoked potato salad, Cedar infused ice intermezzo (great story there), Venison rack and sticky toffee pudding. Everything was amazing. Take note the Chef's table can change day to day though some of their staple dishes are there for sure. Cheers to Antler!“

“All-around wonderful. Exceptional vegan dining, thoughtfully made, and with elevated textures and flavors. As a person with high vegan standards, I was blown away. The dining room is clean and very pretty. Kind, thoughtful people. Best meal I had in Toronto. Best meal I’ve had in years, honestly.“

Ordered the Injera Thali Plate and it was packed with so much flavour :) each dish had its own unique taste and they complimented each other well. I really liked the potato dish (super savory) and lentil dish (perfect amount of heat)
