Best Restaurants in Toronto (2026)

Toronto's restaurant scene mirrors the diversity of the city. At the top end, Alo on Spadina Avenue and Quetzal on College Street both hold Michelin stars, the first for contemporary French tasting menus and the second for Mexican cooking over wood fire, while Canoe serves Canadian ingredients on the 54th floor of the TD Bank Tower on weekdays only. Barberian's Steak House, open since 1959, offers old-school steakhouse dining with a famous wine cellar.

Some of the most rewarding meals are more casual. Pai Northern Thai Kitchen on Duncan Street keeps most tables for walk-ins, Sunnys Chinese hides down a hallway in Kensington Market, and Campechano presses fresh tortillas every day in King West. Enoteca Sociale on Dundas Street West is the place for Roman pasta, Lahore Tikka House on Gerrard Street East has served Pakistani food since 1996, and SumiLicious in Scarborough makes halal Montreal-style smoked meat. Several of these hold Michelin Bib Gourmands for good value. Book ahead for the starred restaurants and for weekend dinners, and check hours, since many places close on Mondays or Tuesdays.
