Star Wine List Restaurants in Toronto

360 Restaurant

Toronto, Canada

At 351 metres above Toronto's waterfront, 360 Restaurant sits atop the CN Tower with the world's highest wine cellar, a 9,000-bottle collection held at altitude with full climate controls. The slowly revolving dining room completes a full rotation roughly once per hour, mapping the city's grid from the lake to the northern suburbs. Reserve well ahead; walk-ins are rarely possible at this height, in every sense.

Toronto, Canada

Wine Spectator Award of Excellence

Alo

Toronto, Canada

1 Michelin star

On the third floor of a Spadina Avenue building, Alo has spent nearly a decade accumulating the kind of critical recognition that reshapes how Toronto is perceived abroad. A Michelin star, consistent placement on Canada's 100 Best, and a recent entry on the San Pellegrino World's 50 Best Restaurants mark it as the city's benchmark for contemporary French tasting-menu dining. The format is 10 courses, the sourcing is international, and the standard has not slipped.

Alobar Yorkville

Toronto, Canada

Alobar Yorkville brings French technique to Cumberland Street with the kind of front-of-house precision that defines the upper tier of Toronto dining. Chef Patrick Kriss has earned consecutive Michelin Plate recognition and Opinionated About Dining rankings in 2023, 2024, and 2025, placing the room firmly in the conversation for the city's most carefully executed French tables.

And/Ore

Toronto, Canada

The split format is not an accident but an editorial statement about how a single evening can contain two different moods and two different paces.

Also recognized by Star Wine List

Bar Isabel

Toronto, Canada

Bar Isabel has anchored Toronto's Spanish dining conversation since it opened on College Street, earning consecutive Michelin Plate recognition in 2024 and 2025. The tapas format here is grounded in Iberian classics done with consistency: patatas bravas, pan con tomate, bone marrow that remains a benchmark order. A Spain-focused wine list and sessionable cocktails make it as much a drinking destination as a dining one.

Barberian’s

Toronto, Canada

Open since 1959, Barberian's on Elm Street is one of Toronto's longest-running steakhouses, holding its position through decades of dining trends with dry-aged beef, a deep wine cellar recognised twice by Star Wine List in 2026, and a multi-room setting that reads as a document of the city's dining history rather than a contemporary reinvention.

BlueBlood Steakhouse

Toronto, Canada

Wine Spectator Best of Award of Excellence

Occupying the lower halls of Casa Loma, Toronto's century-old Gothic revival castle, BlueBlood Steakhouse places prime beef inside one of Canada's most architecturally arresting dining rooms. The setting alone separates it from the city's standard steakhouse circuit, but the kitchen earns its keep through serious sourcing and a format built around the beef itself. Reserve well ahead for weekend service.

The table is yours for the evening, the phone policy is firm, and the Sunday lunch has a devoted following of its own.

Elora Mill

Toronto, Canada

Wine Spectator Best of Award of Excellence

Elora Mill occupies a restored 19th-century grist mill on the banks of the Grand River in Elora, Ontario, roughly 90 minutes from Toronto. The property operates as both a hotel and dining destination, drawing guests who want serious Canadian cooking set against limestone architecture and gorge-side landscape. It sits in a small but growing tier of destination restaurants outside Ontario's major cities.

Enigma Yorkville

Toronto, Canada

1 Michelin star

A Michelin-starred tasting menu restaurant in Toronto's Yorkville neighbourhood, Enigma offers 6, 8, or 10 surprise courses shaped by chef Quinton Bennett's international training across South Africa, London, and beyond. The kitchen draws on global sourcing — Atlantic halibut, Australian wagyu, Nordic and Japanese technique — delivered in a format that rewards the curious diner willing to surrender the menu to the house.

General Public

Toronto, Canada

General Public occupies a two-story space on Geary Avenue in Toronto's Dovercourt-Wallace-Emerson neighbourhood, operating in the space between a British gastropub and an American steakhouse. It is the latest addition to Jen Agg's Toronto restaurant portfolio, a group known for sharp design instincts and a consistent ability to read what a neighbourhood wants before the neighbourhood knows it wants it. The result is a room that feels rooted in its west-end surroundings without being precious about it.

Giulietta

Toronto, Canada

On College Street in Toronto's Little Italy, Giulietta has held a Michelin Plate and Opinionated About Dining recognition since 2023, placing it among the city's more consistent casual Italian addresses. Rob Rossi and David Minicucci run a room where classic Italian cooking gets thoughtful reinterpretation — the pizza alone justifies the reservation. Open Tuesday through Saturday from 5 pm.

Grey Gardens

Toronto, Canada

A Michelin Bib Gourmand recipient in consecutive years (2024 and 2025), Grey Gardens brings contemporary cooking to Kensington Market under chef Ksenija Krajšek Mahorčič.

Harbour 60

Toronto, Canada

Harbour 60 occupies the landmarked Harbour Commission Building at 60 Harbour St, making it one of Toronto's most architecturally grounded steakhouses. Fresh from a major renovation, it operates at the upper tier of the city's power-dining circuit, where the room does as much work as the plate. The menu is built around prime cuts and a wine program scaled to match.

Henry's

Toronto, Canada

Henry's sits on Queen Street West at the less frenetic end of Toronto's contemporary dining corridor, earning a Michelin Plate in 2025. Owned by a wine importer, the room leans on a carefully sourced bottle list and a contemporary kitchen that draws on classical technique. At the $$$ price point, it occupies a distinct middle tier between Queen West's casual spots and the starred rooms further downtown.

Jacobs & Co. Steakhouse

Toronto, Canada

Wine Spectator Best of Award of Excellence

Among Toronto's upper tier of fine dining steakhouses, Jacobs & Co. at CIBC Square holds a Michelin Plate (2025) and one of the city's more serious wine programs: 1,175 selections, 6,200 bottles in inventory, and a $50 corkage policy.

La Palette

Toronto, Canada

A Queen Street West fixture since the 1990s, La Palette delivers classic French bistro cooking in a room that trades on atmosphere as much as plate. The wine list leans earnest and the kitchen stays honest to its bistro brief. Come for dinner, stay for live jazz and dancing that carries the night well past midnight.

Also recognized by Star Wine List

Le Sélect Bistro

Toronto, Canada

Wine Spectator Best of Award of Excellence

Le Sélect Bistro on Wellington Street West has anchored Toronto's French bistro tradition since the 1970s, serving classic dishes including steak tartare, cassoulet, and confit de canard in a Parisian-inspired interior that remains one of the city's most committed examples of the genre. The wine list follows the same transatlantic logic as the menu.

Louix Louis

Toronto, Canada

On the 31st floor of the St. Regis Toronto, Louix Louis frames Canadian-inflected French and American cooking against a skyline view few downtown restaurants can match. The two-storey Grand Bar holds one of North America's largest dark-spirits collections, with more than 500 bottles anchoring a program built around Canadian whisky heritage. A 60-foot ceiling mural and art deco detailing set the room apart from the financial district crowd below.

Midfield Wine Bar & Tavern

Toronto, Canada

On Dundas Street West, Midfield Wine Bar & Tavern occupies a quieter register than Toronto's tasting-menu circuit — a neighbourhood wine bar where a rotating list of interesting bottles meets small plates, cheese, and charcuterie. The format is deliberately casual, the wine selection genuinely engaged, and the pace set by the guest rather than the kitchen.

Also recognized by Star Wine List

Milou

Toronto, Canada

Milou occupies a specific tier on Dundas West: the neighbourhood café-bistro that regulars treat as an extension of their living room, anchored by a Euro-focused wine list and a French-leaning sensibility. Where Toronto's upper-end tables demand occasion, Milou rewards habit — the kind of place where returning is the point.

Also recognized by Star Wine List

Modus Ristorante

Toronto, Canada

On King Street West in Toronto's Financial District, Modus Ristorante earned a White Star recognition from Star Wine List in October 2023, signalling a wine program that the platform's editors considered worth flagging to serious drinkers. The address places it among a cluster of Italian-leaning dining rooms where the wine list often does as much talking as the kitchen.

Osteria Giulia

Toronto, Canada

1 Michelin star

Osteria Giulia brings Ligurian cuisine to Yorkville with a Michelin star and a menu that focuses on the seafood-rich coast rather than the usual pan-Italian repertoire. Chef Rob Rossi's uptown room, with its candlelit cream walls and blond-oak tables, is the kind of place that absorbs a milestone dinner without effort. La Liste ranked it among the world's top restaurants in both 2025 and 2026.

Reign

Toronto, Canada

Wine Spectator Best of Award of Excellence

Inside the Fairmont Royal York, Reign operates across a dining room, a Jazz Age-inspired wine bar, and a bakery — a multi-format property with a 2-Star World of Fine Wine accreditation anchoring its wine credentials. The wine bar is the venue's most distinctive element, pairing serious cellar depth with one of downtown Toronto's more atmospheric dining settings at 100 Front Street West.

Restaurant 20 Victoria

Toronto, Canada

1 Michelin star

A Michelin-starred contemporary restaurant in Toronto's Financial District, Restaurant 20 Victoria operates a 24-seat dining room and front lounge under chef Julie Hyde, whose European training underpins precise sauce work and seafood-led tasting menus. Ranked in both La Liste's top restaurants (81 points, 2026) and Opinionated About Dining's North America list, it occupies a small but credentialed tier within the city's fine dining scene.

The Oxley

Toronto, Canada

In Yorkville's gallery-and-boutique corridor, The Oxley operates as one of Toronto's most convincing British pub transplants, housed in a heritage building on Yorkville Avenue. Dark wood, earthen tones, and a room that reads like it was lifted from an English market town make it a sharp contrast to the neighbourhood's prevailing aesthetic. The mood shifts noticeably between a quieter daytime service and a fuller, louder evening crowd.

ViBo Restaurant

Toronto, Canada

On Bloor Street West in Etobicoke, ViBo Restaurant has earned recognition from Star Wine List — a White Star designation published in December 2021 — marking it as a dining room with a wine program worth noting in the western reaches of Toronto's restaurant corridor. The address places it outside the downtown core, in a stretch where neighbourhood restaurants tend to define themselves through consistency and local loyalty rather than industry buzz.
