From the OpenTable editors: White-glove service and a state-of-the-art open kitchen spell luxury at this MICHELIN-starred, special-occasion gem. But it’s executive chef Quinton Bennett’s unexpected but winning combos—which have previously included silky egg custard with poached lobster or fried kale and cabbage with shaved foie gras and Parmesan dust—that place Enigma in a league of its own.

    We chose Enigma Yorkville for a birthday celebration. From the moment we stepped in the ambiance exuded elegance. We opted for the five-course set menu. Every course was carefully crafted, the flavors were a journey from delicate and subtle to bold and complex! Each dish was a melt-in-your-mouth experience, bringing a new sensation, leaving us puzzled and eager for the next. The service was outstanding. We chose non-alcoholic beverage pairing, which elevated each meal to a new level of enjoyment. We also recommend to include some `add-ons` such as Antonious Oscietra Caviar Course and Foie Gras, to enhance the experience even further. Overall, Enigma Yorkville exceeded our expectations, offering a Michelin star experience defined by precision, creativity, and a celebration of diverse flavors! A must-visit for any culinary enthusiast!

    Place was empty unfortunately.....perhaps it is the time of year but Saturday night and almost no one was there. Food was OK even good, but nothing spectacular and for almost $1000 we were expecting spectacular We have had many better meals in Toronto for much, much less money Overall it was a disappointment unfortunately

    We had an incredible experience at Enigma. From start to finish we were greeted with incredible service and friendly staff. The food was incredible with lots of complexity and beautiful presentation. Simply put, the food was art on a plate. We will definitely be returning. Thank you chef and team for a memorable evening!

    A wonderful experience and meal. The courses are unique, flavourful and the presentation is inspired. The service is impeccable but not fussy, the menu a blend of international flavours, textures and colours. We will return. Delicious!!

    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.
