Best Authentic Restaurants in Bayview

Arrived at 9 PM and were promptly shown to our seats in the speakeasy section which has an absolutely stunning aesthetic, perfect for photos and a unique night out. Our waiter was attentive and offered fantastic drink suggestions. I tried The Botanist mocktail, and it was easily one of the best I’ve had so highly recommend! For mains, I ordered the salmon, which, unfortunately, was quite bland and underwhelming. The New York strip loin, requested medium to well, came out inconsistently cooked (half well, half burnt). However, the manager handled the issue gracefully, which really showcased the restaurant’s commitment to top-tier service. The star of the night was the lemon meringue; hands down the best I’ve had in Toronto. I’ve also heard great things about their pasta and pizza, so that might be the better route next time. Overall: Exceptional service, amazing drinks and desserts, but the main courses need some serious refinement. Worth a visit for the ambiance and cocktails alone.

We let the chef choose our meal and wine pairings. The variety was fantastic and we had some definite standouts in the various courses. I would recommend this to anyone who likes new flavours and interesting combinations, staff were plentiful and attentive. Overall a fantastic experience.

The food was excellent, good wine recommendations, excellent service.

The restaurant is beautiful and the seating is very comfortable. The noise level was quite high when we had diner at 6:30 on a Thursday.

Great food and excellent service. The chef's appitizer plate is a good selection and very tasty. The Korma, Butter Chicken and Nan are very good.
