We had such a great experience at alobar, and a huge part of that was our waitress, Rachel. She was incredibly kind, attentive, and genuinely warm. She recommended the desserts, and they did not disappoint at all. We ordered the cheesecake and the banana cream pie both were absolutely amazing and some of the best desserts in Toronto. The cheesecake especially stood out and is easily the best cheesecake in the city. Amazing service, amazing meal and desserts, and a big thank you to Rachel for making our visit so enjoyable. We'll definitely be back!

Alobar was a great experience! I had taken my girlfriend here for her birthday and it was fantastic. The food was excellent, staff very friendly and they had a proper selection of drinks. If you're looking for a classy, fun night out, I highly recommend you give Alobar a try!

The food was delightful but we were rushed out and not a fan of this location now. Good service aside from the evident desire to flip the table. We were two older women who were not subtly rushed after one drink and a few plates. Not even offered a second. 60 minutes max

Every single thing at Alobar was perfect last night. The food, the drinks and the service was top notch. Highly recommend!
Pam
Very enjoyable. Wait staff professional and helpful. Lighting very dim - cell phone light needed for menu

Eating at Alo is always a good time. Great service and great food. It is a bit pricey, but perfect for a business meeting or bar date, imo.

We were there for our anniversary. Great service, thoughtful acknowledgement. Staff went out of their way to make it a special evening.
Peter
Excellent service from the whole Alobar team. From the welcome staff to my server. Exceptional service

My friends and I dined at Alobar last night. The food was good and the service pleasant, however I was disappointed and quite frankly embarassed when, after spending nearly $1,000 on a meal, we were asked to leave since our table was committed. My two friends arrived 30 minutes late for the reservation due to Toronto weather and traffic and while I completely recognize that restaurants try to seat multiple tables a night, it was rude and unacceptable that we were asked to leave before dessert - note that that was only a 2.25 hour sitting which is relatively short, especially given that this is meant to be a high end dining experience (and we would've continued ordering cocktails and more food over the course of the evening). Unlikely to return, since my two friends had never been before and I suggested Alobar and was left embarassed with this treatment.

I have been going to alobar for years and it has been a staple restaurant for me. Always loved their food and enjoyed my dining experiences with them. However, I dined here on Saturday, Nov 29th for my birthday and I found the quality of the cooking has gone down. Perhaps a change in the team? The delicious AAA Tenderloin that I have ordered countless times was dry for the first time, poorly seasoned, and was not warm. I have always enjoyed their pastas but unfortunately the Canestri was somewhat bland and also not warm. I also felt that the Hamachi that I order with every meal had flavour only on the surface level. This is not usually the case. It's truly unfortunate that things have changed as this restaurant has always been my go-to and is steps from my home. For the price point, I'm concerned about giving Alobar a second chance.
The food was not delicious, very basic Risotto is totally bland reminded of baby food. Steak was burnt, Over priced food for the quality and taste. Service was good. I will not go again

I was seated at the bar. Order a drink that was alright. Then an appetizer( salmon croudo) that was good. For our main we had steak. My boyfriend liked his steak but mine was very hard and tender, that I didn't like it. I complained and they gave me a cheesecake for free. The cake was alright not so great.

Everything was top notch. The presentation of the food is outstanding. Staff are professional and personable. Prices are very reasonable.
