La Plume is a fantastic French bistro where we had an amazing time. The atmosphere is charming, and the service was exceptional—our server was incredibly friendly and walked us through the entire menu. One of the highlights was being able to order a customized drink. The food quality was outstanding, and the drinks were just as impressive. It’s the perfect spot for a relaxed and enjoyable dining experience. Highly recommend!

First time at La Plume tonight and I can definitely say that I would certainly make the trip back. The service from our server and the rest of the staff was great, everyone was super accommodating and friendly. We had the prix fixe menu and every course was delicious, of good value, and came out in a timely manner. Would highly recommend the beef tartare. Thanks for a great dinner!

One of the best restaurants in Toronto.
Great food.
The onion soup was good, not too hot.
The onion burger was INSANE and refined. The fries are super thin and tasty.
The creme brûlée was good too though I would suspect they use a premix and not make their own curd.
The service was great. They have a free coat check and the tall guy at the entrance was very gentle.
I'll go again.

Came here for my birthday and definitely did not feel served. It had a very fast food type of speed and as a result the experience and quality really suffered.

Yes I could have said something but I tend to like to go to nicer places so that I don’t have to say anything. Part of the restaurant experience is that I’m paying for someone to take care of me. Also it was my birthday so I wasn’t going to be rude and complain about this in front of my partner who planned it for me.

The food was overall passable and I’d come again out of convenience only to avoid starvation.

Details:
- My kid has an egg allergy and when I told the server, he reviewed the kids menu and said everything was egg free. I questioned him as I know the cheeseburger likely uses a brioche bread or egg has a binder and that pasta can have egg in it. He checked with the kitchen and I was correct. Server should not be speaking based on no knowledge - just irresponsible.
- my pint of beer was served on a faulty glass that did not stand up well on its own and kept tilting to one side.
- bathroom had no paper towels despite restaurant being pretty empty on a Tuesday
- the sides we ordered with the mains came out with the appetizers. Had to order another side and ask for it come out with the mains. Our first side became dry and cold.
- octopus was drenched in a oil based dressing. I would have called it a salad or some sort. It was very salty and pieces could have been charred prior to being drenched in a dressing to get a little more texture
- fingerling potatoes were very soft - baby led weaning level of softness
- steak was done proper but it didn’t taste like a quality cut - bland or maybe it was bland from my over salted octopus
- fries were good
- whipped potatoes were dry and hard on top as if it had been sitting premade like at a fast food restaurant. It was topped with crispy potato sticks but it tasted like old oil and was very oily

Nice atmosphere and friendly staff, but the food was really mediocre. I couldn’t even finish my meal. The cocktail was decent, but overall, not worth a repeat visit.

Came by yesterday for happy hour to celebrate a new promotion at work, bartender working was such a beauty. Made us some of his favorite cocktails and then gave us a tour of the speak easy. Will come back soon for dinner as the oysters and drinks were amazing! Highly recommend this place.

Came here with a friend . Everything we had was delicious . I had a couple of cocktails. The pink slip and a sangria . They were both very good
We had the beef tartare . The potatoes . And the branzino - everything was delicious . We had the creme brulee for desert - I'm not a big desert person but it was pretty good. Would definitely come back

"The ambiance at this French restaurant is lovely and very relaxing. Unfortunately, the main dish ( Rotisserie Chicken pot pie )wasn't to my taste. However, the side of fries with a tasty dipping sauce was a hit. The chocolate mousse for dessert was a delightful end to the meal and highly recommended."

We’ve been to this restaurant a few times because it’s so close to our home and we really enjoy the food. I am a sucker for French onion soup and this one is very very good.
