With a relaxed, refined atmosphere, La Palma is the perfect spot to catch up with a friend over drinks, dine with your lover for dinner, or celebrate your most special occasions with family. Chef Craig Harding's food is Italian at heart but the menu at La Palma reflects a California sensibility and remains playful, reflecting dishes and ingredients from other Mediterranean cuisines and cultures. Whether you're grabbing take-out for an impromptu picnic in the park, or enjoying a patio dinner with a view of sunlit Dundas West, La Palma has you covered.For parties of 6-9 we strongly recommend our Family Style's Chef's Menu. This multi-course meal includes several dishes from our a la carte menu plus exclusive off-menu items--most of the dishes are served family style, as our menu was created with sharing in mind!

Opened in 2017. Michelin-recommended since 2022.We first imagined Aloette to be the perfect diner that we’d want to dine in – a menu with a great cheeseburger paired with a fantastic and fun wine list, a long row of bar stools facing the bar and the kitchen, and an energetic atmosphere accented with an old school hip hop playlist. The buzz of the dining room mirrors the energy of the street on Spadina Avenue; the dining room itself mimics a train’s dining car. It’s a bistro-meets-diner-meets-internationally-inspired menu which is also representative of the diverse culture in Toronto. Our service team is upbeat and genuine but also deeply knowledgeable about the menu and offerings. Brunch at Aloette was something we said we’d never do. But the city kept asking and we’re glad to be a new staple in the Queen West neighbourhood for mimosas, chicken and waffles, and piping hot coffees. We hope you love our little diner as much as we and our team do. Patrick Kriss & Zane Pearl

    We did a tasting menu put together by the restaurant after we told them what we like and which dishes we were interested in. Wonderful service, and wow all the food was so good, we tried the tuna, fried squash, speck pizza, Brussels sprouts (those last two were our favourites!), the steak and the 100 layer lasagna was extra delicious!

    Bar Clams is the casual seafood spot Toronto has been waiting for! Chef Matty and chef Coulson known for their delicious dishes at Prime Seafood, brings a refined yet relaxed approach to every dish. The menu is simple but elevated, showcasing the best of what’s fresh and from our country. Highlights include the perfectly seared scallops with bacon… a Mackeral BLT that strikes the perfect balance of crispy, tender, and wholesome. The atmosphere is laid-back, but the quality of the food is undeniably high-end. It’s the kind of place where you can casually drop in for a bite, knowing you’re getting some of the city’s best seafood at an approachable price. Toronto’s seafood scene just got a lot better.

    Everyone was kind and very nice: they were from Valencia, Sevilla, Barcelona and Colombia—authentic Spanish food. The croquettes superb. Paella from Valencia was amazing and authentic Jamon Iberico from Huelva. I am leaving Toronto, but I would like to come back again. It is strongly recommended if you are looking for Spanish food. More light is suggested, and lower music, too, to improve the experience even more.

    Delicious! Charming place! We only wish our server had shared that the Pork 'elephant ear' was as big as it was, and suggested that my wife and her niece could have split the entree, as opposed to each ordering the entree. We had far too much food. Other than that, all very nice.
