    Simply outstanding. Every morsel of food and drink perfect. The best lamb ever. We really enjoyed Louis with his fabulous service. When I come back to Toronto we will definitely return to Carisma. Thank you.

    Early dinner before the theatre on Saturday night. Even with a 5:30pm reservation they were very busy. Service was prompt with good recommendations with both our drinks & food. Lovely ambience and food was quite good. Will definitely be back !
