Bloor-Yorkville offers a variety of
internationally recognized restaurants and
award-winning chefs
Bloor-Yorkville restaurants offer one-of-a-kind dining experiences including
unique decore and private dining.
Sofia: When it comes to décor, it’s hard to beat the fusion of top-tier dining with a world-class contemporary art gallery.
That’s exactly the concept at Sofia, which partners with neighbouring Taglialatella Galleries, pairing the likes of Banksy, Mr.
Brainwash, and more with your innovative Italian meal. Few spaces in the city provide as unique a backdrop as the well-curated interior at Sofia.
Sassafraz: Known for years as the “Little House on the Corner” Sassafraz redesigned in 2019 to include a mural on the outside of
the restaurant and a breathtaking “living wall” inside the house. The living wall is just that: a mix of succulents and seasonal
flowers complimented by a large overhead skylight, bathing the room in natural light. The stunning décor is a true escape
from the outside world.
Amal: With nothing left to chance, every detail at Amal was meticulously well planned. The contemporary designs are
supported by calming hues of rich greens, earthy browns, and bluegrass. The terrace is landscaped to complement the
interior, creating an escape where food, décor, and even music work together to create a one-of-a-kind dining experience.
SALON by AloBar. AloBar, surrounded by fairy lights in the charming Yorkville Lane, quickly became of the most sought-after dining locations in the city. Salon by AloBar takes this exclusivity to the next level. Located adjacent to AloBar, SALON offers a completely private dining experience. Whether you’re looking for a sit-down experience or a cocktail-style party, you and your guests will have the experience all to yourselves. Salon offers multi-course tasting menus fit for corporate events, meetings, or celebrations.
Bespoke meals at Aburi Hana. Unlike any other Japanese restaurant in Toronto, Aburi Hana offers Kyo-Kaiseki style dining.
This experience originated in Kyoto and incorporates multiple courses into a refined culinary experience. The chefs at Aburi Hana approach food as an art form, incorporating modern gastronomy with ancient techniques. Their team creates bespoke meals for each diner, so no experience is ever the same.
Tasting Menu at Enigma. Nestled on picturesque St. Thomas Street and surrounded by mid-century and modern
architecture, Enigma is Bloor-Yorkville’s very own European-inspired fine dining restaurant. Unlike a typical dining
experience, Enigma offers a prix fixe lunch menu and tasting menu dinner services.
Concept: DICE Fruit Bar will have you reimagining everything you thought about fruit. DICE will introduce you to fruits you’ve never heard of along with recipes you’d never imagine. These are far from your average smoothie bowls!
View: The One Eighty. Situated on the 51st floor of the Manulife Centre, The One Eighty offers breathtaking views of Toronto and the CN Tower. Their rooftop patio is the perfect place to relax and enjoy the one-of-a-kind view.
