Everything was just perfect. The food is great, the service is exquisite. It was an amazing experience. Thank you.
Wow what an experience! Right from when you approach the magnificently restored building that the restaurant is in, you appreciate the level of excellence in every aspect of this culinary journey! The service is first class. The food was so innovative and exceptional. Every course was amazing! The wine selections for tasting menu were perfectly balanced. I highly recommend this restaurant for a special occasion!
Excellent food and service. My husband and I attended his birthday dinner at DiNico. He said this was the best restaurant he's been to in Canada. From the moment we walked in to the time we left we were treated so special. We will definitely be coming back.
An absolutely exceptional experience at DaNico. The space is stunning, the service flawless, and the food — simply extraordinary. We did the tasting menu and every course was beautifully executed with incredible flavour and creativity. The team made the evening feel special from start to finish. Easily one of Toronto's best fine-dining experiences — perfect for a date night or celebration.
This restaurant offers an exceptional dining experience. The interior is beautifully decorated. Our four-course meal, priced at $160.00 per person, was outstanding. The presentation of the food and the explanations accompanying each course were exceptional. The staff is so professional that it gave the impression of being at a three-Michelin-starred restaurant. Our waiter, Rosty, ensured that our experience was flawless. The restaurant also features a “cashmere” restroom, which is the highest award a restroom can receive. We made another reservation as we were leaving.
What an incredible experience. My wife and I went here to celebrate our 6 year anniversary after reading all the great reviews...had to try for ourselves! We went with the signature tasting menu and it truly hit the spot. Chef Daniele Corona truly is a master of his craft. All the staff members were incredibly kind and detailed in their explanation of each plate. Our server, Jessica, was professional, personable, and candid. She even offered us a tour of the restaurant and we got to meet the manager, Jill, who showed us all the wonderful intricacies of the place. Easily a 10/10 experience and we will definitely returning in the future.
From the moment that I walked in, everything was awesome. I had a chance to be served by the beautiful trio of Ashley, Matt, and Jordan which it made the night even better. They were all very fun, knowledgeable and attentive throughout the night. I am quite happy that I went with the Premium Pairing. The food was on point, every bite was delicious and prepared perfectly. It was an immaculate meal. Thanks Danico Team!
Amazing fine dining experience. I hope they can bring out different menus so we can go multiple times.
It was amazing food and experience. Ashley was the best and the tour after dinner was great.
Dining at DaNico was nothing short of extraordinary—a Michelin Star experience that not only lived up to its reputation but truly surpassed. From the moment we stepped inside, we were warmly welcomed by the elegant and inviting atmosphere. The decor and ambience were breathtaking, especially the centerpiece right at our table: Salvador Dalí's Nobility of Time sculpture. It set a thoughtful and inspiring tone for the evening. The sampling menu itself was a delightful journey. Each dish was a masterpiece, not only in flavor but in presentation. The entire menu was thoughtfully composed, targeting a specific flavor experience that felt both creative and heartfelt. The pacing of the courses, the balance of textures, and the artistry in flavor integration all contributed to a dining experience that felt intimate and memorable. What truly stood out, however, was the staff. Service at DaNico goes beyond professionalism—it is personal, attentive, and genuinely caring. We felt as though we were the most important guests in the room, with every detail anticipated before we even thought to ask. That level of care transformed the evening from excellent to unforgettable, leaving us with the feeling that this was not just a meal, but a heartfelt celebration. Thank you, DaNico, for a truly memorable evening. We look forward to returning for the next menu and more cherished moments.

I had an absolutely amazing experience at this restaurant, and it wouldn't have been the same without “A” (Ashley). Her service was exceptional from start to finish — attentive, friendly, and truly genuine. She made us feel welcome and cared for every moment. It's rare to find someone who can turn a great meal into an unforgettable experience, but “A” did exactly that. Thank you for making our evening so special!
Amazing food and staff! Friendly and well trained. Food is brilliant, sauce is well done the combinations.
DaNico is one of the top ranked restaurants in Canada and that’s for a good reason. The restaurant has a pleasant decor with knowledgeable and attentive staff worthy of Michelins star and of course the tasting menu was exceptional with delicious and innovative dishes that are pleasant to the eye, nose and tongue. The staff is also very accommodating to dietary restrictions even a few last minute requests of my party. Only detractor is that the restaurant had a constant smokey smell from the grilling in the kitchen. Nevertheless definitely recommend this restaurant for a special occasion or when you feel like splurging on a meal.

It was an excellent experience. My server Ashely went above and beyond to make our experience even better.
Wonderful experience!
Thank you so much for accommodating all our dietary requests — it really made a difference for me and my husband during his special birthday celebration. The food was absolutely spectacular, and the wine pairing worked perfectly. The non-alcoholic sparkling wine was a great touch as well!
The service was top-notch, with amazing communication between the team members — you can truly relax, enjoy, and not worry about controlling what’s going on. We also loved the thoughtful small gift and the variety of desserts, including one with a candle for the birthday wish.
Even though the portions were on the smaller side, we left full and very happy. Highly recommend for special occasions!
