This is a true dining experience. While portions appear small, there are many of them and elegantly presented. The sommelier is well versed in his product. All courses are well explained on service. The view, city or harbour is great. Dress is business casual, so not fussy, but not T shirt and ball cap. You are there to dine, not eat. That said, a $500 dinner should come with water…not at $9 per bottle.

We sat at the counter, and it was a very intimate experience being away from the other guests. The vibe was good, and the staff were helpful with explaining the menu options. Highly recommended the 'Nasi Goreng' squid fried rice.

It was great having Chef Bennet come out and introduce us to a dish. U can feel that the tasting menu is coming from Chef Bennett's Root (South Africa). The menu was very earthy and exciting from dish to dish. The Juice pairing that was offered was great as well.

Fantastic dinner from start to finish. The lasagna and pickerel were particular highlights. The service was exceptional. Our server was thoughtful, attentive, charming and had very practical feedback whenever we had menu questions. We were celebrating my wife’s birthday, and decided to forgo dessert (being fully satisfied and full.) Not one to miss an opportunity, our wonderful server surprised us with a birthday candle in a ramekin, along with a couple glasses of Montenegro to underline the occasion. So thoughtful! All in all, wonderful experience and would recommend to even my pickiest friends.

About the restaurant

Osteria Giulia sprung to life in our imaginations as a tribute to Italian traditions of the past.

We wanted to create one simple, beautiful thing. Somewhere outside of your busy life, outside of your surroundings, outside of time. An environment, an experience, an entire evening.

Osteria Giulia is intimate, warm and familiar. We’ve revelled in her every detail. We’ve established a rarified menu focusing on Northern Italian cuisine and delicate coastal, Mediterranean flavour.

Giulia is a new imagining of what an Italian restaurant can be. It always was the place of our dreams, the reason for our collaboration, and the culmination of—and conduit for—our collective passion.

I had the best focaccia I’ve ever eaten here! The seasoning of the dishes was just right, perfectly balanced without being too salty, which is something I’ve noticed in many restaurants lately. Every dish was flavorful without overwhelming the palate. The only minor downside was that I felt a bit rushed when ordering food and drinks, as if there was some time pressure. However, I want to emphasize that the server was not rude at all, in fact, they were very kind and attentive to details. Overall, it was a great experience, and I’d love to visit again!

About the restaurant

R&D is an urban casual restaurant in the heart of Toronto’s iconic Chinatown, headed by first-ever MasterChef Canada winner Eric Chong and his mentor, Michelin-starred restaurant owner Alvin Leung. The stylish interior reflects R&D's dualistic nature: open & abuzz with energy while preserving an intimate atmosphere.

At R&D, eastern dishes meet western style in the form of modern Chinese sharing plates, where classic ingredients are given a vanguard treatment.

The food quality was quite fine and the service was top notch. We don’t understand the few user complaints about portion size. We thought they were abundant and reasonably priced. We will be back to try other items on offer.

About the restaurant

At Quetzal, we celebrate regional Mexican cuisine, inspired by traditional flavours and cooking styles, all cooked over a 28 foot-long open fire that runs the span of the hot line. Traditional moles, sauces and little-known native ingredients are transported to Toronto and infused with the bounty of local Ontario and Canadian produce, for a one-of-a-kind dining experience. Quetzal is located at the corner of College & Bathurst, at the edges of four Toronto hotspot neighbourhoods: Little Italy, Kensington Market, Harbord Village, and the Annex.

The food was absolutely fantastic. It was beyond our expectations. We had the curated menu and they were able to accommodate our dietary restrictions which was so appreciated. The curated menu is worth the higher price tag as you get to try a few of the culinary masterpieces that their chef creates with an element surprise. The service was also great. It is a bit loud but only because people are having a good time. :)
