Café La Gaffe - Toronto, Ontario

A cozy space with great ambience and an exceptionally friendly and courteous staff! Our sever made our experience simply sublime, the food was fresh and tasted sooo good! Would definitely come here again! You need to try their creme brûlée!!!

the french food is good and nice to discover, especially the escargots as a starter, mussels are good too for an affordable price. main dishes are generous. excellent service as well. You have to come for the kindness of the waitress, who will make sure you have perfect time. thank you all ... the team FP Read more

First the good - food was good (and as someone else mentioned wine from Chile was great, but creme brulee was only so-so), atmosphere was great, fresh flowers on tables was a nice touch. Not-so-good - service. Server brought us sugar, but no cream for our coffee. Also didn't notice the ... selection was mostly artificial with only two packets of real sugar left in the bowl. Then did the same by not bringing cutlery with our food because didn't notice we only had one set at the table. Kept disappearing too despite us being the only customers in the place so I had to physically get up to find them more than once. The most hilarious time was after we finished our mains. They came to remove our plates then never came back to ask if we wanted dessert or the bill! Read more

Servers are very nice, but they don't have a clue about service. It doesn't matter, because the food is so good that you can forgive the mediocre service. The Cabernet Merlot from Chile isn't bad. We were shocked it came in a 1.5L bottle for only $45. Guests from a ... table beside ours couldn't finish theirs so they gave us the leftovers? I had the rack of lamb. Superbly cooked. The creme brulee for dessert was perfect. I found the French onion soup a bit greasy. I have had better. We'll definitely come back. Read more

It's a nice little restaurant on Baldwin Street. It's not a fancy place, but it has a great value. Good and quick service. Spicy PEI mussels can be cooked in no spicy way as per customer's request, and the dish is very good. The grilled salmon is a simple dish that requires a ... lot of mastery to overcome all the competition. The chef at Cafe Le Gaffe does that. The balsamic vinegar glaze really add interesting notes to the taste. Although, veggies on the side were exactly the same as for the steak. But you cannot anticipate different side dishes at such price range, thus, I'm OK with that. The steak was good as well as deserts - we had a Creme Brulee and a lemon cheesecake with refreshingly sour raspberry jam. I would highly recommend this place, especially for their grilled salmon and mussels Read more
