We had the absolute pleasure of dining at Daphne in Toronto for a holiday dinner, and it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was warm and inviting, perfect for a festive evening. The food was nothing short of spectacular. We enjoyed the Tuna Carpaccio, Beef Tartare, Branzino, Mussels, and Salmon, and every dish was executed to perfection. The flavors were fresh and beautifully balanced, leaving us savoring every bite. The highlight of our evening, however, was the impeccable service. Our waiter, Tarin, went above and beyond to ensure we had an exceptional dining experience. His attentiveness, friendliness, and genuine care made us feel truly special. It was hands down the best service we’ve ever received. Thank you, Terin and Daphne, for an incredible experience and meal making a memorable evening. We will definitely be back and recommend this gem to anyone looking for outstanding food and top-tier service in Toronto.

Our recent visit on Christmas Eve, to celebrate a special celebration, was nothing short of extraordinary. We extend our gratitude to every individual who contributed to the impeccable service that evening. From the thoughtful seating arrangement overlooking a vibrant display of fresh seafood, seasonal vegetables, and fruits to the attentive service that paired our meal with a delightful bottle of Petit Chablis Blanc, every detail was expertly curated. The evening culminated in a celebratory dessert of Greek yogurt, elegantly garnished with pomegranate seeds and mint—a perfect ending to a remarkable experience. Our meal began with house-made bread and olive oil, complemented by a refreshing tomato salad as an appetizer. For the main course, we enjoyed expertly grilled Balada fish accompanied by steamed broccoli and succulent lamb chops. The server’s meticulous walkthrough of the fresh seafood selection, artfully presented on ice, added an engaging touch, highlighting the restaurant’s dedication to authentic Greek cuisine. This establishment comes highly recommended, and we eagerly anticipate returning with friends in the near future. Notably, their thoughtfully crafted business lunch menu, designed to be served within an hour, is a perfect option for professionals working on Bay Street. A truly exceptional experience!

Incredible service and food. A must if you are in the distillery district.

We came with our family just before Christmas during the Christmas Market time. The restaurant was busy but not overcrowded. we were welcomed quickly and shown to our table. We were a large group -7- but our table had plenty of space and was not cramped. Our food arrived quickly and all of us enjoyed our food. My son-in-law loved the Beef Tartare and the Oysters. He had some concerns about recent evidence of tainted oysters in other locations but our waitress was able to explain which types of oysters had been gained and to reassure that none of those oysters were served at Cluny. The Black Cod en-Papilotte was also described as delicious -spicy but not too much, interesting. Two of young men had Flat Iron steaks and pronounced them perfectl! Cluny felt like a special place to dine and they did not disappoint . A very enjoyable meal in a lovely setting.

Gusto 501 offers a chill vibe with dim lighting and a great music playlist that sets the mood perfectly. Our waitress was attentive and quick, making the dining experience seamless. The food was incredible—some of the best pizza I’ve ever had! The Carbonara and Margherita pizzas were outstanding, and the mushroom pasta was a table favorite. The espresso martini was spot-on, and desserts like the tiramisu and torta di mandorla were the perfect sweet finish. Highly recommend!
