About this restaurant

  • Charming
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
Eliot & Vine offers an array of dining experiences. Have a seat in the main room along the bright windows, or at our beautiful marble top bar. Our semi-private ‘Frolic Room’, boasting exquisite work by renowned artist Jean Bradbury, is perfect for group dinners or a quiet date night. Or, watch the chefs work their magic while you sit at the kitchen counter. Eliot & Vine was designed by Breakhouse. European favourites get a unique twist inspired by the seasons and ever-changing market offerings. Our extensive wine list features classics you love, and unique gems waiting to be discovered - from around the world or local vineyards. We have hand-crafted cocktails and a selection of European bottled beer, while the draught taps showcase our love of home. We are happy to accommodate special requests, such as a gluten-free or vegetarian meal. Don’t hesitate to ask anyone on our team, and be sure to let us know if you have any food allergies or sensitivities.

    I really wanted to like this restaurant and I really liked everything except my main course of the halibut! Sadly, it was dry and overcooked! Needs more attention!
    Eliot & VineResponded 7 days ago
    Thank you for taking the time to review Annette. We are very glad you were able to join us for dinner. Sorry to hear there were issues with the halibut. Please know you are always encouraged to let our staff know if something isn't right. We are glad the rest of your dining experience was satisfactory, and we hope to see you again sometime soon.
