We went to Le Baratin to celebrate my partner’s birthday and it was an amazing experience. It is a homey restaurant and they serve authentic, DELICIOUS French cuisine. We had the steak which was 10/10 along with some lovely red wine! We also had the lovely surprise of a glass of champagne and candle for my partner to blow out! We would most definitely return and highly recommend this gem of a place. Thank you!

Had dinner here with my mom last night and we both loved it! This little French bistro on Dundas West feels like you’ve been transported to Paris. The all-French staff were lovely, and the food was authentic and delicious without breaking the bank. We did the three-course dinner for $66 which was a steal for the quality. Everything was perfectly executed - simple French cooking done right. The atmosphere is cozy and intimate, perfect for catching up over a bottle of wine. We had no trouble getting a reservation, and we’re definitely going back. If you’re looking for genuine French food in a charming setting, this is your spot! Highly recommend for anyone who loves French cuisine or wants a special night out that won’t destroy your wallet.

Love this place. Attentive service, superior food, maybe a little pricey, but everything is expensive these days. I blame Trump. And Ford.
