About this restaurant

Alma is a restaurant based on the tastes and experiences of our kitchen team focusing on modern Chinese cuisine headed by Chef/Owner Anna Chen.
We are built around food that uses fresh, simple, quality ingredients and our focus is to create a unique dining experience.

As of September 2022, Alma has been recognized by the Michelin Guide as a recipient of the Bib Gourmand award.
We hope to see you soon!

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Anna Chen

MICHELIN Bib Gourmand2022

From the OpenTable editors: Alma means “kind” or “nourishing” in Latin, a fitting description for its homey vibe and chef Anna Chen’s heartfelt cooking. Dishes like curried squid, which draw on Chen’s Hakka Chinese heritage and Indian upbringing, have the inventive power to land the restaurant a MICHELIN nod, yet are approachable enough for Alma to earn local favourite status.

We loved our meal here and cannot wait to return. I know everything is expensive in Toronto now and this was no exception. Was the value there? Difficult to say. I've had recent meals that were equally as excellent that were less expensive. That being said, the service was good, food was excellent and the vibe was casual yet warm and inviting. I Definitely recommend.

The food was way too oily. We had higher expectations since it’s been given a Michelin rating.
