Restaurants near JJ Furnished Apartments Downtown Toronto: TIFF Bell LightBox

We really enjoyed our time at this location. The manager Nate is an absolute gem, he made his rounds making sure everyone was looked after and enjoying their meal/experience. He was one of the most attentive managers I’ve ever seen and his energy and genuine happiness at work is absolutely incredible. We need more people like Nate in this world and definitely in this industry, we will definitely be back because of the food but mostly because of the impact he left, world class service!Also he made the best recommendation for a mock tail that was one of the best we’ve had, will definitely be back for that as well.

I cannot say enough great things about this place. We went here after a show at the theater and didn't know what to expect. The service was amazing from the moment we entered the restaurant the hosts were warm and kind, our waitress Fayte was wonderful! She was so attentive and friendly. During our meal we even saw staff coming around to ensure the floor was kept clean if anything had dropped, the manager was constantly walking around ensuring everyone was happy, and after our meal we had a very kind man come clear our plates and ask us how everything was. It was so nice to recieve tremendous service all around. As for our meals, we had calarmi for an appetizer, the steak sandwich and wings. We both had some wine. Everything was DELICIOUS, Hot & fresh. We also loved how many items were on the menu, we agreed that we needed to come back to try some more different dishes since we had such a great experience. Also great music DJ! Thanks for a wonderful night out fox on John!

I’ve had many fantastic experiences at Minami, and this time I booked a dinner for my parents. They had an absolutely wonderful time and were thrilled with the food. I had several special requests for the reservation, and Nicholas and his team went above and beyond in ensuring everything was perfect. The service was impeccable, and the attention to detail truly made the evening memorable. Thank you so much to the team for creating such a wonderful experience for us — we’ll definitely be back!

My boyfriend and I came here before going to the ballet at the Four Seasons and I cannot recommend it enough. The staff was aware of the performances in the area that night and were the perfect balance of efficient, welcoming, attentive and kind. Every staff member we interacted with was beyond friendly and the food was exactly what I was looking for - we split the calamari, kale salad and prosciutto pizza and it was the perfect amount between the two of us. Would definitely recommend eating here if you plan to be at a show nearby or if you're looking for a good date night Italian spot!

Outstanding as usual :)) Byblos never disappoints! service, drinks & food top notch!
