Aloette - Toronto, Ontario

Great service from Andrew and Kelly, the hostess was super accommodating when we called earlier in the day to reserve a table for 3 adults and 2 children. We tend to take our younglings in all our culinary adventures. The Iceberg Lettuce Appetizer was amazing, Octopus Carpaccio looked sumptuous (but ... had to skip on it as one of of our guest was not keen on raw or cured seafood). The lamb skewer, both Aloette and Truffle burger was worthy of the Michelin Star. We also had Aloette fried chicken. To finish it off we had Lemon Meringue Pie. The chicken, beef and lamb is certified halal for any Muslims curious. Highly recommended. Read more

Loved it! It’s on the Michelin recommendation list for a reason! It’s a small place but run very efficiently. We were seated at the bar and our host was attentive and warm. We ordered the iceberg wedge salad, tempura asparagus and Alotte fried chicken. But we changed the fried chicken ... to Shrimp and grits after 5 minutes and they were able to accommodate it. They also have a potato bread with a house mousse as a compliment side. Loved the flavor profile on all the dishes. I think their iceberg wedges salad is famous and for a reason! I would totally recommend this place but go with a reservation. We went there without one but they were able to accommodate us luckily at the bar. Also I guess the menu changes from time to time and my friend had tiger shrimps last July which was not on the menu today. Read more

They were extremely accommodating when booking a reservation via email. I picked a date and then had to change it after my wife told me we had a prior engagement elsewhere. Whoops. Sorry. The booths are able to accommodate 4 people. We brought our 7 year old and the 5 of ... us were able to squeeze in. Due to the squeeze, they offered to coat check us, which was nice. We came here for brunch and the food was delicious. We brought my wife’s parents here and they couldn’t get enough of the food. They normally eat Chinese food so it was great to see they enjoyed it. My daughter loved the Aloette Fried Chicken. She loved wrapping it up with the greens. She also enjoyed the pickles and the honey on the chicken. The only issue we encountered was they forgot two orders of fries. They apologized and they comped us for the fries which was very much appreciated. We didn’t plan on asking and they proactively offered. Thank you. Perhaps the next time we come here, it’ll be for dinner as their menu looks really appetizing. Read more

I loved the place and appreciated the fact of being seated in front of the chef we were able to see how he finished every single plate. I didn’t like the kind of spritz and how they serve it. The lemon pie is a highlight it is quite delicious and has a ... peculiar sourness, not from lemon but from lime. The fries, and the wagyu hamburger, were good. The butternut squash was a surprise it looked good but tasted even better and really enjoyed the balanced flavors on the lamb skewer. Read more
