Alobar Yorkville is tucked along a pathway in Toronto’s Yorkville neighbourhood. It puts its foot forward as a cocktail bar, but it is a full-fledged Michelin starred à la carte restaurant, offering choice seafood with the finest accoutrements, fish and chops off of the charcoal grill, and world-class wines, all served with genuine hospitality. Alobar Yorkville boasts a comfortable courtyard patio merging warm skies with ice cold cocktails during the summer.

Alobar Yorkville received 1 Michelin Star in 2022 & 2023.

From the OpenTable editors: As its name suggests, Alobar excels in the drinks department, offering standout cocktails and a well-curated wine list. As the laid-back sister spot to the renowned tasting menu restaurant Alo, Alobar shares the same passion for local ingredients and borderless culinary inspirations. Chef Patrick Kriss brings a relaxed take on fine dining to dishes like confit duck pappardelle and torched hamachi.

Start to finish - this was a dining masterpiece. Thoughtfully curated custom cocktails as we didn’t like anything on the list, beautifully paced courses, the seafood was phenomenal. Definitely get the hamachi and sea bream and get the brioche to soak up all the sauce.

I gave two categories less than five stars because otherwise no one would take me seriously. It’s an amazing restaurant and the service was superb. 100% I recommend this restaurant.

I have been to most of the other Alo locations but this was my first time dining at Alobar Yorkville and frankly it was underwhelming. Service was extremely slow so it took quite a while to place our order and for food to then arrive. We were seated at the bar and not a table so it was a bit disconcerting to be approached by the hostess and informed that the next guests were arriving so we needed to finish up and leave; then having a server hover over us and then shove the bill and credit card machine in front of us. Not a good look for what is supposed to be a 'high end' establishment. I likely won't ever return.
