Came here for our anniversary and it didn't disappoint.
We had the 6 course tasting menu $120 First course: tuna sashimi. This course was okay. It was served with cream cheese but the sashimi has a little fishy taste. Second course: Foie gras pate - very refreshing with citrus taste. Third course: risotto it with black truffle with dashi soup. East meets west. Italian risotto with Japanese dashi soup Fourth course: Pan seared scallop - Cooked to perfection. Crunchy on the outside and soft and moist inside. Fifth course: Veal was very tender and full of flavour. So soft that it almost melts in your mouth Sixth course: chocolate mousse with ice cream and various desserts Service is top notch. She is very friendly and always smiling. The ambiance is rather dark but romantic as we are sitting on the bar side. The only complaint is it is hard to take pictures of the food with such low light :)
Be the first to ReplyI was lucky to visit this place for my birthday.
I always had hard time securing the spot since their reservations fill up quite quickly! My significant other and I participated in the Dining room tasting menu, which is $225 per person. Upon arrival, you are greeted by a host that will take you upstairs. You go upstairs by this tiny elevator, and it is pretty slow. They help with coat check and take you to your table. Overall, the service is top-notch. From checking in before you begin your meal to when you leave the table to use the washroom, and keeping you company if your partner is gone for a few minutes! I enjoyed all the detailed descriptions of each menu, but at one point, I just could not pay attention since I was thrilled to try all the delicious dishes. I liked how there was enough space for the chair and the table. We were able to sit next to each other and enjoy our meal together. You can do some upgrades with extra but we did not opt in for it. We might do it if we revisit it, but I do not think it's necessary. My significant other's favourite restaurant is Scarpetta in Las Vegas (he has visited here at least 10 times), and said Alo could be better than them. Every dish has unique ingredients that harmonize in your mouth. Every first bite my partner and I had, we were heavenly. I just enjoyed every single menu and could not ask for more. There are a variety of desserts. We were able to finish ours, but one of our friends who had visited in the past had to bring them home as they were too full. So do expect to get full by the end of the course! I was also given another dessert on the side with a candle to celebrate my birthday. They were extremely sweet about it. Although there is no specific dress code for this place, I would dress up in a classy way to match the place's ambiance. It was one of the most phenomenal experiences I had in 2023. I would love to revisit and try their Summerlicious/Winterlicious program.
Be the first to ReplyWith all the hype that Alo gets, my expectations were
With all the hype that Alo gets, my expectations were pretty high coming in for a New Year's Eve tasting menu. We were seated in the bar room, which wasn't very spacious, but had a nice moody aura. Though Alo is labelled as a French restaurant, our seven course meal was surprisingly Japanese, with components like bluefin tuna sashimi, sake kasu, and maitake mushrooms. My favourite courses were the koshihikari rice white truffle risotto and the east coast scallop topped with caviar. Flavours of each dish were well balanced in every course, tasting best with all elements in one bite. Service was great throughout the evening. My friend didn't like the foie gras (our second course), and the waiter promptly replaced it with a citrus-y beet salad. We appreciated that they were well prepared for such a scenario, especially with how rich the foie gras is. Fresh cutlery was provided with every course, with the waitstaff clearing the table in sync. I was content with my experience, and I do think Alo deserves their star, but with a price point of $250pp, I wasn't entirely blown away. You are also required to pay the full amount upon booking. I'd love to come back in the future to see if the dining room experience is different.
Be the first to ReplyAs I recount my latest experience at Alo, I grapple with
As I recount my latest experience at Alo, I grapple with the final mark: would I still consider them a 9 or a "top pick"? There were dishes that were incredible, but then some that missed the mark. The tasting menu ($225 per person) was off to a shaky start when the canapés arrived. We're instructed to eat the four bites in a particular order. The first, an oyster with compressed cantaloupe and Iberico ham oil had a fishy essence without an acidic element (like the traditional mignonette or lemon) to help cut through the strong taste. It also seemed off that it wasn't ice cold for something that should be served uber fresh. The first bite was a bust. Slowly, the redemption started with the beautifully presented uni tart, which was made even creamier with a thick crème fraiche on the bottom. While this wasn't mind-blowing, it was at least not repulsive. After the fishy oyster I had doubts about the mackerel tart, but this was unfounded as the meaty fish was very clean tasting and well balanced with bright pops of the daintiest tomatoes and fruit. Indeed, there was an ocean-like essence from the caviar, but it wasn't overpowering. The canapés ended with a foie gras and strawberry jelly tart that created a sweet and savoury element. This was surprisingly good and wonderfully rich. It's unclear if Alo is pandering to Michelin inspectors as the procession of Japanese dishes just seem out of place at a French restaurant. Sure, I can understand if they want to throw in one dish that's has a Japanese influence, but to feature a handful was just too much. Moreover, some dishes just can't live up to what you'd be served during an omakase meal. Chef Patrick Kriss should drop the madai course, a sea bream paired with chili oil, caviar, and kumquat. Like the oyster, it was fishy and warm. Give me this fish cool with freshly grated wasabi and soy sauce any day. The kinmedai was better, the red snapper was at least cold and refreshing with the oh so finely julienned radish in the centre. The various oils complimented the fish nicely and this was an improvement over the other sashimi course. If Alo must have a sashimi course (why would it), one is enough. Having a soft spot for chawanmushi I wouldn't be opposed to this remaining on the menu. The actual steamed egg was hot and silky, but then enhanced with lovely French and Western elements: smooth foie gras tofu cubes, fragrant truffle paste, crunchy radish, sweet corn, and crispy chicken skin. All this amongst a pool of reduced capon broth. What an incredible dish! This is a long review, head to Gastro World for the rest.
Be the first to ReplyWe went for the $125 pp bar seating 6 course prix fixe.
Ambiance was nice but note that the tables are very small and tight together. Service was good but I have had better at other fine dining establishments. Portions were very small, but I did not come ravenously hungry, so I was satisfied and happy by the end of the meal. Hamachi sashimi - divine. Sitting atop some very flavourful oils. Foie gras tart with strawberry gelé and crème fraîche - super different and interesting, but way too rich Rice - very creamy and buttery, the crispy rice on top adds great texture and grapefruit pulp adds a refreshing tang Scallop and mussel in foam - a perfectly seared scallop is the way to my heart Steak - not a steak lover but even I thought this was great. Eggplant tempura on the side. Bread - very rich and oily bread. Adding butter on top seemed like overkill. Came warm. Dessert - a delicate and light peach cake, passion fruit caramel, canelé, strawberry jelly, and a birthday dulce de leche dessert with candle (not pictured). Although this meal stretched my budget, it was an adventure in food and well worth it for a special occasion.
Be the first to ReplyIt was a great experience and definitely worth every penny,
It was a great experience and definitely worth every penny, we got their tasting menu. The food was incredible and the service was good. I do hope they put in a lot more work on their cocktail menu and make their desserts a bit better. The ambiance was a bit old school which im not sure if or not i like but definitely loved the sunlight coming in.
Be the first to ReplyWe went to Alo tonight and sat at the kitchen table tasting.
Overall, I say their dishes were on point and I did enjoy the evening. If there was only one negative, it would be the wine service. I ordered an old fashion to start the night, then I choose to order a Pinot from burgundy off the menu, instead of doing their wine pairing. Since I prefer red wine over white, and the wine pairing was predominantly white. I enjoyed the wine that I did get, but it was unfortunate that I didn't get the bottle opened till we were already 3-4 course into our meal. Their 'famous' sommelier, Christoper, nice guy, maybe too friendly, seems to focus too much on diners doing the wine pairings, and totally negated peeps that order bottles. I still have like 1/3 of the bottle when we got to dessert, since it was opened so late into our service. At least they packed the bottle up for take home. I found out later that do they allow corkage at $80 a bottle. If that is their usual wine service for ordering bottles, I should've just brought my own bottle from my cellar.

Surprisenly got a reservation - could only get the bar seating and got to try the 6 course meal. Definitely an experience and worth a try! Our waiter was so nice that he got us a free small birthday cake
Be the first to ReplyWhat a unique and wonderful dining experience!! Service
What a unique and wonderful dining experience!! Service was stellar from the moment we entered. I communicated with this restaurant several months in advance and made sure they could accommodate my wife's dietary restrictions for her birthday celebration. They explained they could not modify the menu in their main dining room, but would if we sat in the bar area. Considering the high quality of being a Michelin restaurant, I readily accepted. We both loved our experience. They saved a special corner table (# 26) for us, overlooking the rest of the bar area. Food was a 5-course menu for $120 ea. Drinks were an additional $189, for a total of $429 CAD. Joy, our server took great care of us. Food was exquisite. We would love to return.
Be the first to ReplyWe got seats at the kitchen counter, and for food nerds
We got seats at the kitchen counter, and for food nerds like us, it was a major treat to watch the chefs work. We were only seeing the tail end of the preparation that goes into creating such dishes, but that alone was impressive. The care that the chefs take was immediately obvious in the presentation and taste of the food. This same attention to detail was noticeable in the service, which was attentive without being intrusive. Loved our experience here!

Food: 9/10Service 10/10I really loved my experience here! The canapes, Hokkaido Scallop, Shima Aji, Wagu & Oyster, East Coast Lobster, Japanese A5 wagyu, Lemongrass & Limquat were all exquisite! Alo definetely has the most unique and unbeatable flavor.However, the pasta dish was not up to my expectations and failed to impress me. But let me tell you about the Japanese A5 Wagyu - it was simply divine! The meat melted in my mouth, and I finally understood what Gordon Ramsay meant by saying how steaks would melt in his mouth. It was so much better than any other steak I've had. Although it did get too fatty in some bites, to the point where I chugged my entire mocktail, I didn't notice the wasabi at first, but once I did, it changed the taste in the most delightful way.As for the Lemongrass & Limequat, it was refreshing and light, and I simply adored it. The Mont Blanc Petit fours were a little too sweet for my taste, but the coffee balanced it out. I especially loved the box that came with the dessert; I wanted to take it home with me!I must commend the waitstaff; they were all lovely and made my dining experience even more delightful. All in all, I truly enjoyed my time here and can't wait to come back!

9.5/10Alo has Been on my list for a very long time. I'm So glad that the fiancée was able to book us a table! Excellent foodThe whole menu and Each dish was well balanced well thought out. The menu did introduce me to different flavours and combination that will get me thinking about again and again! ServiceImpeccable service - the best service I had. It was the little things that makes this an amazing experience Our reservation was at 915 pm and we were seated promptly. We didn't finish until 12am so it was quite a long dining experience. Couple of dishes that didn't really wow me for example we had a pasta dish, and desserts was ok (although it introduced me to canelés and I'm obsessed).Expect your wallet to hurt. We ordered 2 glasses of wine and added truffles to one of our meals. That was almost an additional of $150. This is definitely a restaurant worth visiting and experiencing. Great for occasions. Highly recommend this to anyone who can obtain a reservation!
Be the first to Replyon Friday night we partook our first visit to ALO.
the raved about restaurant in downtown Toronto. we looked forward to the 10-11 course tasting menu for this Michelin star restaurant we arrived in the ground floor foyer and took an elevator to the third floor greeted soon as the elevator arrived and coat check. Nice. invited to our seats our straight way generous seats near the window ..... view to people watch over the restaurant ....first thing I noted was the buzz of the service staff. they were everywhere!!!waiters waitresses. it's an " open kitchen" and there must easily been 15 staff deep it was a constant sea of movement everyone busily bustling. it was obviously going to be an attentive evening. and it was. So in one respect it was good we did not lack getting someones attention BUT we had probably at least 6 different servers during the meal. there was no consistency or continuity of " personal " service i I thought would be a feature of this type of restaurant ...unfortunately the majority of the staff we encountered spoke. with thick accents that were difficult for me to understand within the din and bustle of movement. I had to ask many times for them to repeat their descriptions of the courses presented to us the timing between the courses was OK but a little disconcerting being quickly cleared away and set up for the next serving by yet another fresh face The tastings!!!unfortunately a definite disappointment !!! reading the menu seemed very impressive there were a number of exotic items and or references but it's my impression they were not well put together and the sauces used were not particularly well put together The presentation of the dishes were ok and as I expected the emphasis would be on the sizzle and not the steak! I have come to expect it's a chore to keep the lights on BUT the flavour combos and portion sizes were a huge disappointment !!! this is just a personal note and review but I felt only 3 of the eleven offerings came close to the category of interesting and good now for a moment please picture each "course" consisting of one table spoon or perhaps 2 table spoons of. whatever ! pretentiously described food that was served. please step back a minute !!! we had a modest Chardonnay at 150 per bottle The bill came to $ 725 with the tip I have dined out at a lot of places in Canada and abroad and my personal judgment this establishment is way over related the attention to service is well intended but poorly organizedthe ambiance for fine dinning well below the mark the food uninspiring maybe an off night but not sure I ll return for another try at this price point kind regards and good luck
Be the first to ReplyI had wanted to go for a while and kept missing the drop
I had wanted to go for a while and kept missing the drop dates for reservations, so I was excited when I was finally able to get one. I can see why this place was awarded a Michelin star. Everything about our meal from start to finish was amazing. The service staff were all very caring and attentive to our needs. The lighting and ambiance of the restaurant was really nice and felt very cozy. We got our own little booth and after ordering drinks, we started the tasting menu. Every course was well explained, and although they were small bites, which was to be expected, it was delicious. My favourite course of the night was a lobster dish with a creamy egg sauce. They were many courses, so I'm not going to go into each one, but there was a heavy influence of French and Japanese cuisine. Overall, I would say the experience and the food is worth the price. Its not something I would do on the regular, but it was very nice going and seeing what the hype was about. I would say it is one of the best dining experiences I've had in Toronto.

Be the first to ReplyShocked that I haven't reviewed Alo yet! I try to make it a
Shocked that I haven't reviewed Alo yet! I try to make it a habit of coming here at least once or twice a year to try their different seasonal tasting menus and they always hit it out of the park. This place is easily a 2 Michelin Star restaurant by the guide's definition of "excellent cooking, worth a detour" (even though the guide only gave Alo 1).The flavour profiles range from simple to complex and how they mix flavours, textures, and visuals is amazing. Having been to a few 1,2, and 3 Michelin star restaurants around the world, this place is phenomenal. If you live in Toronto, this is an absolute must. If you come from abroad, plan ahead and eat here if nowhere else.Logistically, to get a prime time reservation slot, you have to plan ahead. They open 2 months worth of reservations on the first Tuesday of the month. So on April 4, 2023 reservations open up for May and June. I believe the tasting menu is now $225 per person for 9 courses and every dish is built to perfection, and when you're done, you'll realize it was worth every penny.Service is incredibly attentive and they are super humble. Not pretentious at all. Everything from their service, to their food, to the atmosphere, is top-tier.If you are looking for a place that truly defines the Toronto high-end culinary scene, look no further.

Disappointed that such a highly rated restaurant with talented chefs refuse to handle as allergy as common as shellfish. I would think chefs are trained to handle allergies, but Alo refuses to serve.
Be the first to ReplyThis place has been on my list for years, it was definitely
This place has been on my list for years, it was definitely worth the wait. My boyfriend and I went with the full tasting menu and got a cocktail each with our meals. Here are my thoughts on the courses:0. Canapés - love the presentation and taste of every bit. It was a great balance of unique flavours, mostly savoury and creamy. My favourite bite was the smoked salmon with caviar. The tart crust was so crispy, the salmon was very fresh and the caviar was a great pop of flavour. 1. Hokkaido Scallop - these were the best scallops I've had! Super fresh with a hint of sweetness. The zesty sauce was a great compliment. 2. Wagyu & Oyster - one of my favourite bites of the night. The wagyu was so buttery. I usually don't enjoy raw oyster, but this was very fresh. The 2 purées were refreshing and light. Excellent balance to the buttery wagyu. 3. Shima-aji - these sashimi slices were so fresh. The spot of yuzu really brought out the natural flavour of the fish. 4. East Coast Lobster - thoroughly enjoyed this dish as well. The lobster was springy and sweet. The uni was very creamy with a light salty flavour. The egg based sauce added to the creaminess of the dish. This was a very filling and comforting dish. 5. Koshihikari Rice - this dish resembled a risotto. Loved the mushrooms used. The rice itself was slightly on the saltier side. 6. Swordfish - very unique chewy texture. Loved the flavour of the spicy peppers and sauce. 7. Pecking duck - very tender and flavourful. The purée was an amazing complement to the meaty flavour of the duck. Be sure to eat them together! 8. Provimi Veal Tenderloin - this tasted so much better than it looked. It was one of the most tender steaks I've had. The light salt brings out the natural flavour of the meat. Don't skip out on the eggplant purée! It was an excellent complement to the veal if you wanted a stronger smoky flavour. I should also shoutout the butter milk bread, so soft and buttery! 9. Dessert 1 - love the chestnut praline topping. Inside the chocolate dome contained ice cream and meringue. A delightful dessert with many textures and flavours. 10. Petit Fours - contained yuzu Madeline, chocolate tart. Chocolate rum Choux, and Canelé. This was my first time having Canelé and I absolutely loved it! Overall one of the best dining experiences I've had! The waiter and all the staff were super attentive and friendly. Definitely worth the price :)
Be the first to ReplyI've been wanting to go here for a while and was worried
I've been wanting to go here for a while and was worried that reservations would be hard to get after they received their Michelin star. Luckily I was able to get one, but they do get filled up quick! I made the reservation over Tock about 2 months in advance.Right when we walked in we were greeted at the elevator and they asked if we wanted our coats taken. We were taken to our seats and asked if we wanted any champagne before the meal. We were also asked if we were interested in any upgrades/additions to our meal including a wine pairing. Our meal was 11 courses with the option to add an additional course. There were 2 wine pairings to choose from, a regular and premium one. We opted to have one regular pairing and share as we're not much of wine drinkers.During the meal they started off every course with a brief explanation of the dish. If there was a wine pairing for the course the wine would come first with an explanation as well. In between courses our utensils were changed as well.All the courses were really good. We especially loved the lobster and swordfish courses. For dessert we were given an additional small cake as we were celebrating a birthday. After our meal was finished we were given our menu for the night as well as our wine pairings. The service and food was excellent throughout the whole night.

This was my first visit so a michelin restaurant, and it definitely didn't disappoint. My boyfriend and I were visiting Toronto and were excited to get a reservation here. We sat at the "kitchen counter", and honestly it was probably the best place to be, as we were able to watch the dishes be prepared throughout the night. I had a cocktail that was fabulous, and then did a wine pairing. All of the wines were great. The service was outstanding, and the food was mostly phenomenal. I will say that I was a bit let down by the dessert course, as none of them stood out, and though they are tiny portions, I didn't even finish any of the selections presented. I tried to take photos throughout, but there were a few course I missed, either because I was overly excited or due to the wine It was, of course, the most expensive meal of my life, but that was expected, and we were glad to have had the experience! Though I'm so sad that I left my menu print out behind. Also, disappointed that we didn't get to go back and try their bar restaurant, Aloette.

A huge thank you to my younger brother for snagging me reservations at ALO. Been wanting to try their food for a long time now. Had a glass of champagne to start then afterwards a 10 course meal with 9 wine pairings. I did the wine pairing select instead of the regular wine pairing which features more unique wines... I was slightly underwhelmed by some of the pairings. I was so full by the time they served the Madai... I had to pack the BonBons to go... Overall a great experience.

Simply one of the best food experiences I've had in my years of traveling to dine. The space is sophisticated, yet welcoming and hip. The staff goes above and behind without making you feel smothered. The food is delicious and beautiful. Definitely displaying all the elements elevated and the true meaning of culinary arts!
Be the first to ReplyFantastic experience! Food was great.
Service was amazing. If you have a hired time eating late and then sleeping, try to get an earlier reservation.
Be the first to ReplyAfter having wanted to try this place for a couple of
After having wanted to try this place for a couple of years, my husband managed to book a table for my birthday. I'd rate Alo 3.5 stars if I could. We had 6 course tasting menu and 2 glasses of white wine. We were seated at a table on the third floor behind the bar counter, which was a bit squ eezy. (he said a table in only this zone was available when booking). I wish we sat at a table on the second floor which looks more spacious. The course started with sashimi, following foie gras tart, and risotto. All the dishes were beautifully presented and incorporated unique Japanese ingredients and flavours. After the three dishes, we were served scallops and a steak. Both were nicely cooked, tender and came with flavorful sauce. The course finished with an assorted dessert which included crepe cake, ice cream, macaron, canele, and caramel. All the dishes were good but not mind-blowing. The bill came to 375 dollars including tips. So I'm not sure if the dinner was worth the price to be honest.
Be the first to ReplyQuite possibly the best restaurant in Canada, and one of
Quite possibly the best restaurant in Canada, and one of the best restaurants in the world, getting a table can be quite difficult. You have to snag a spot 3 months in advance and they go quick! The best thing to do is ditch your friends/ family and go solo in case all tables are already taken.They just recently reopened for dine-in after lockdown. I was quick about making a reservation because it was now or never...and never wasn't an option for me.Located on the 3rd floor in a building along Spadina, this French-inspired restaurant aims to please and arouse the palate. I did their 6-course tasting menu and aroused I was.The bar tender is quite impressive. Very personable and gives excellent recommendations. Same thing with the server whose name escapes me but she helped me navigate non-alcoholic options and I ended up with a drink called Bom Dia (Orgeat, lemon, passion fruit, nutmeg)...absolutely delicious. The best comparison would be Yakult but better.6-course tasting menu (in order): fluke sashimi, foie gras tart, Koshihikari Rice, scallops, wagyu for an up-charge instead of the tenderloin, petit four (Granny Smith apple dessert, passionfruit caramel, Granny Smith sorbet, S'more, kumquat macaron). It was a lot of food but with a great variety. Every single thing was perfect. One dish comes, you close your eyes, savor, and tell yourself just how good it is. Then, the next dish comes and you start over with eyes closed, savor, and you get the point. Their prix fixe menu starts at $120.A good excuse to wear something nice, do you hair and makeup...unless you're me and your luggage is floating around elsewhere. Good thing I had a dress in my carry-on long enough to cover my boots. And my skin still sun-kissed from days on the beach. I digress.If you're going to Toronto, you might want to get a table at Alo first before booking your flights and hotel. You simply can't go to Toronto without having a meal here.
