Best Date Night Restaurants in Bayview

We celebrated a birthday and dining at Osteria Giulia was very special. The wine & cocktail selection was amazing. Our waitress was so attentive & knowledgeable. The food was exceptional - the flavours, freshness & artistry is unmatched. The accolades Osteria Giulia has received is so well deserved. We look forward to going back.

Great place, nice ambience, tasty food and friendly staff. The blackened cajun steak was amazing! Two suggested improvements: 1) Need friendly attentive staff at bar. It took 10 mins before someone finally attended to us. All that time, they looked at us and would turn away. Not sure why… 2) Selection of apps is inadequate. Everything was tasty, but need more options Overall great experience. The above improvements would make it even better.

We had the absolute pleasure of dining at Daphne in Toronto for a holiday dinner, and it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was warm and inviting, perfect for a festive evening. The food was nothing short of spectacular. We enjoyed the Tuna Carpaccio, Beef Tartare, Branzino, Mussels, and Salmon, and every dish was executed to perfection. The flavors were fresh and beautifully balanced, leaving us savoring every bite. The highlight of our evening, however, was the impeccable service. Our waiter, Tarin, went above and beyond to ensure we had an exceptional dining experience. His attentiveness, friendliness, and genuine care made us feel truly special. It was hands down the best service we’ve ever received. Thank you, Terin and Daphne, for an incredible experience and meal making a memorable evening. We will definitely be back and recommend this gem to anyone looking for outstanding food and top-tier service in Toronto.

The service and ambiance was great. Notable dishes were the challah and fluke and fennel. The fries were perfectly crispy and the broccoli was very flavourful. However, the ribeye was average, it lacked flavour but cooked properly yo medium rare.

Most of our dishes were quite good, except the lentil appetizer which was served cold and tasted like stale bread. Service was friendly but they literally kicked us out of the restaurant at 10pm sharp (turned off the music, brightened the lights and said " we are closed". I mean, I appreciate the staff wants to go home. But it was a bit sudden and dramatic!
