Canyon Creek Chophouse offers a casual and elegant atmosphere for lunch, dinner or late-night dining to the sounds of Sinatra, Big Band & Jazz. Conveniently located between the Entertainment District and the major Sporting Venues, Canyon Creek on Front stands out from the rest. An upscale atmosphere and outstanding food.
Some call it the most romantic restaurant in Toronto, and with its architecture that features a waterfall, high ceilings, an elegant staircase and a huge chandelier you too might want to make a date for this St. Valentines' Day. The food has not been ignored either, La Maquette features a menu of appetizers and entrees (including pastas, risottos, seafood, poultry and meats) and an extensive wine list.
Fiddlers Green, a Victorian-style Irish pub, attracts a large group of regulars. Multiple taps of ales and lagers, along with a full menu, keep the staff hopping. Drop in for a pint and discover why it claims to have the friendliest atmosphere in town.
Conveniently located in the heart of the Church and Wellesley Village in Downtown Toronto, Cafe California has been a fixture of the community for the past sixteen years. The eclectic Mediterranean decor, cozy solarium, beautiful seasonal patio and martini bar has made this spot the place to see and be seen. Always ahead of new trends, but maintaining their Mediterranean influence, their diverse menu includes dishes such as paella, rack of lamb, and chicken malibu. Daily features are at exceptional value, and their well renowned, courteous and friendly service keeps customers returning to them.
Bumpkin's signature menu is classic French cuisine and changes seasonally. Daily dinner specials of the freshest, top-quality fish and lobster tails are exciting and new. Or enjoy daily brunch or lunch until 3 p.m. Typical menu offerings such as Roast or Smoked Duck, Chilled Vichysoisse, Rack of Lamb, Filet Mignon, Provimi Veal Scaloppine, and Escargots Bourguignonne (to name just a few), are always prepared to our uncompromising standards... and have been for over 30 years.
Zelda's offers a complete dining and partying/entertainment experience with ample restaurant seating, the rockin' "Silver Trailer Bar", the funky "Groovy Room" and a huge summer patio. There is always something fantabulous happening at Zelda's with a dizzying schedule of weekly events, drag shows, parties and theme nights that you simply MUST check out! Zelda's is known as "The Zaniest Place in Town", but a dedicated commitment to quality food and service excellence will ensure that you are always both entertained AND pampered. Make sure that your next visit to Toronto includes a visit with us!
Continuing a tradition of excitement, fun and good food, Cantine Restaurant & Bar is exactly what you're looking for. Under the helm of longtime restaurateur Joey Bersani, of Bersani and Carlevale, Flo's Diner and Byzantium, Cantine serves up the right mix of food and ambience, making the corner of Avenue Road and Davenport lively once again. Leather chairs, linens and a bar provide something for everyone. With the city at our doorstep, you can enjoy dinner and lunch seven days a week in our modern restaurant, or join us on Saturdays and Sundays for Toronto's most popular brunch.
Come and join us at our new(ish) restaurant venue. Enjoy Cajun and the best of what Louisiana has to offer right here in Toronto. The sights, sounds and tastes of New Orleans await you at Southern Accent Restaurant... cozy corners, private rooms and a 1940's bar will make you feel as warm as southern hospitality. Come to where it's always Mardi Gras...
We are located one block west of Bathurst and a half a block south of Bloor. There is pay parking behind us in the Honest Ed's parking lot off of Lennox street and a municipal lot just north of Bloor on Markham street.
Come out and try this new venue and join us! ‘Fining Dining’ in a newly decorated restaurant. ‘Order-off-the-menu’ and control your cost! For the Xpressions veterans this is the old; ‘Mango’, or ‘Petit Lebon’.
