Luxury Restaurants in Toronto That Deserve a Michelin Star
"There’s something about the buttermilk fried chicken and waffle combo that just works well. Every dish on the Stockyards Smokehouse & Larder’s Sunday brunch menu incorporates the exceptional barbeque cuisine the restaurant is known for, whether it’s paired with smoked meat or housemade bacon or sausage. Priced from $10 to $20, Stockyards favourites include the Dirty Bird (a boneless fried chicken breast topped with bacon and cheddar, a sunny side-up egg and gravy, served sandwiched between a Belgian waffle) and the classic Stockyards breakfast sandwich (a deep-fried poached egg with bacon or country sage sausage and aged cheddar on a buttermilk biscuit)."
"Why go: A wood-smoked BBQ fix at brunch up on St. Clair West!. For 10+ years, The Stockyards Smokehouse & Larder has offered the perfect stick-to-your-ribs fare to quench any hunger pang and stabilize a hangover or upset stomach with good eats. What to order: Any dish that integrates their famous BBQ!"
"Prepare yourself for the long lines that await you at one of city’s best chicken & waffles and ribs—pretty impressive for under $20."
"Donuts baked fresh daily, hand-cut fries, from-scratch onion rings—at Uncle Betty’s Diner it’s all about homemade. With a family-friendly vibe in a bright colourful space, this place also has an ice cream parlour attached. When: Monday closed; Tuesday to Wednesday, 11:30 am to 8:30 pm; Thursday to Friday, 9:30 am to 8:30 pm; Saturday to Sunday, 8:30 am to 8:30 pmWhere: 2590 Yonge Street, Toronto"
"The Swan, one of Toronto’s most famous diners, occupied the same space on Queen Street West for more than 20 years. Now Le Swan has taken over to serve French bistro food alongside diner classics - think charcuterie followed by a tuna melt and steak frites with a side of grilled cheese. The menu here includes both dishes that you’d find in a Grey Poupon commercial and food that feels sort of like time travel, which makes it a little different than just about anywhere else in the city."
"Everyone’s curious about the new incarnation of Swan on West Queen West which is Jen Agg’s latest project, a so-called French diner that does rotisserie chicken and late night fondue."
"Three years ago this long-standing Leslieville spot underwent quite the makeover. Now it has an elegant look and a pretty patio that while narrow, is an ideal spot to bring the kids for a meal that’s both relaxed and nice. Besides offering “upscale comfort food,” the Tavern also has a kids’ menu that looks delicious."
