The Elm Tree Restaurant

I used to go there regularly. However, I feel like the quality has decreased. I especially don't like how they replaced the really good creamy bread dipping sauce with an average tomato dipping sauce. What a shame! Me and my partner loved it!

One of my favourite restaurants in Toronto. Fantastic food, service & decoration. Beautiful place for either a small or big group. I have been there over 10 times now and I absolutely love it!

My friend and I met for dinner before attending the theater. We arrived separately, each a little late because of traffic tie-ups. Our mood improved as we were each welcomed immediately, seated in a comfortable spot, and brought sparkling water and bread with a tangy spread. The menu is varied with many middle-eastern offerings. We shared a Greek salad to start, the best I've ever eaten. We both decided on the lamb chops for the main course, and they were beyond delicious. I wasn't sure of the exact ingredients in the sides, but they were tasty and delightful. We were both too full for dessert, but saw some items on the dessert menu that I know we would have enjoyed. The calm atmosphere and the attentiveness of the staff added so much to our enjoyment of the evening. I highly recommend this restaurant and will return.

Excellent service, food is amazing, lovely decor. No matter the menu item - portions are perfectly sized. A little on the pricier end but absolutely worth it. My family and I enjoy celebrating our special occasions here, the staff always accommodate any requests we have and go above and beyond to ensure our experience is special. Recommend 100%.

I went for Christmas dinner with colleagues. I really enjoyed my time there. The staff were attentive. Food was tasty. We had a pre-outlined menu so I wish there was more options. Overall, a good place and I will definitely be going back there.

On my last visit to Toronto my wife and I were staying at the Chelsea Hotel and noticed a quaint restaurant across the street named The Elm Tree Restaurant, and being our last night we decided to dine there. This in my opinion was the best part of our trip. The staff was super friendly and extremely helpful in explaining their great Mediterranean fare. The dining room where we were seated was tastefully decorated with a relaxing atmosphere as well. We started off by sharing the Ricotta & Dukkah Dip with warm pita bread and also tried the Roasted Beets. Both dishes were absolutely fabulous. For our main course I ordered the Lamb Shank which was ever so tender and tasty served over chick peas. This was truly a heavenly treat. My wife chose the Salmon with a crispy top and flaky interior served on a bed of lentils. She said that this was one of the best pieces of salmon that she had ever been served. We finished the meal with two hot Americano coffees. All of the portions were exceedingly generous and the prices were very fair. When I visit Toronto in the future, I will be sure to return to The Elm Tree Restaurant and I cannot wait to try some of their other menu choices, which I’m sure must be delicious also.

What an amazing experience with phenomenal flavour and wonderful service ! We had the cauliflower and squid appetizer and then the white fish ( not sure the name) for main

Best food I've had in a long time. Highly recommended!

Service was great. Foods were good

A fantastic dining experience. The servers were attentive but not intrusive, music was audible but still easy to carry on a conversation, and food came promptly. And the food! I want to go back and try everything on the menu. We enjoyed the fig and ricotta salad, brussels sprouts, blackened octopus, lamb shank, and salmon (skin so crispy, flavours so nicely balanced). We'll definitely be back!
