Creative European & Asian fusion cuisine with fresh seafood & meats
"The warm and flattering lighting, the low ceiling, and the curved banquettes all make you think you’ve walked into a cocktail bar rather than a destination restaurant. But that noisy buzz of contentment you hear on arrival is a testament to the food, which hits the spot just as well as the skillfully made cocktails. Seafood is a big deal here, whether scallops or bream, but meats too, such as Creekstone striploin and Iberico pork chop, demonstrate that the kitchen knows its way around a charcoal grill. Those familiar with the Alo Food Group’s other restaurants will recognize classics like the wedge salad, Dover sole, and the banana cream pie holding court in this dining room as well. A second location downtown offers a near identical menu." - Michelin Inspector
"Alobar is tucked along a pathway in Toronto’s Yorkville neighbourhood. It puts its foot forward as a cocktail bar, but it is a full-fledged à la carte restaurant, offering choice seafood with the finest accoutrements, fish and chops off of the charcoal grill, and world-class wines, all served with genuine hospitality."

"Squirreled away down an alley and built out with seafoam green banquettes and sleek wood tables cast in an amber glow, this effortlessly cool destination could easily be mistaken for a cocktail bar. It is certainly as lively as one, but it is also so much more. From chilled lobster with lime aioli to rack of lamb with niçoise olive, the kitchen delivers a kind of refined approachability that suits all occasions." - The MICHELIN Guide
