From the OpenTable editors: A tightly edited menu, bohemian-chic interiors, and an impressive wine list (there’s also a secret sake menu) all explain the appeal of Jen Agg’s acclaimed wine bar-restaurant. Whether you’re here for a beaujolais and a bite or a full-fledged pasta dinner, Grey Gardens is the ticket for one of Toronto’s most unassuming but memorable meals.

  • Grey Monday - December 23

    $95.00 per person

    Prepaid

    Dec 23, 2024 only
    We always enjoy doing tasting menus for special nights like New Year’s Eve and Valantine’s and want to put them on more often, so we came up with ‘Grey Mondays’. Almost always the last Monday of each month and always a great time. The December Grey Monday is a week earlier, to steer clear of New Year's Eve. The menu is a shared 6-course set menu for $95 per person +tax and gratuity. You can expect a snack, crudo, vegetable, carb, protein, and dessert course. Thoughtful wine pairings will of course be available. Can’t wait to see you! Please leave us a note if you'd like a vegetarian or pescatarian menu or have any dietary restrictions. Unfortunately, vegan menus will not be available.

    As always, start with the trout dip. I dream about this in between visits. Then enjoy whatever else follows as all will be perfect. The leek salad with parm will make you rush out to buy leeks. Pasta with crab and a hint of citrus and gentle chili kick. Yum! Duck that can be cut with a fork (idk how that’s even possible). I don’t eat beef but did steal a couple fries that came with my friend’s order. Maybe the best fries ever. Side dish please? And then, a great playlist offers up, “You Sexy Thing” by Hot Chocolate, and I think once again, “Grey Gardens is Simply The Best.” Jen Agg and team - take a bow and thank you!!!

    I'd heard wonderful things, and was very excited to take an out-of-town guest for a friendly-business dinner to try it. We were six and seated at the lovely table in the front window of the restaurant. The 80s playlist was super fun, but the speaker was projecting directly at the table and was a little loud, making it difficult to have conversation amongst our party. The service staff were amiable and responsive to requests, including hanging coats and adjusting heat. As a party of six, we were allowed a prix fixe menu only. While the restaurant made a point of suggesting they were amendable to adjusting the offering to accommodate dietary restrictions, the dish selection and proportions didn't seem to reflect this in practice—of six people, two were pescatarian, yet in the main course, there was no increase to the fish dish and decrease to the meat dish—we had 8 pieces of chicken for 4 people. The appetizers were excellent (fresh bread and butter, smoked fish, and hiramasa) and the second course of a roasted eggplant dish and both a fish- and beef-based pasta dishes were decent. The main course was poor—a skate and mushroom dish where the fish texture was mushy and the dish was generally over-salted, and a roast chicken, creamed corn, and greens dish where the dark meat of the chicken was undercooked. We would have sent the dishes back to the kitchen, but there was no table check for this course. Our guests were more than once without a drink, and had difficulty flagging our server to order. Dessert was well-constructed and balanced, but it was clear the staff wanted to shut down for the evening, and we were not offered digestifs, etc. It seemed as though the service team were just a little too busy to deliver an overall excellent experience. Perhaps in a smaller party, or with bar seating, we would have had more personal attention, and a better dining experience with the a la carte menu.

    We sat at the bar and the bartender was delightful. She was knowledgeable and gracious. And she makes a fabulous martini! The chef is inventive too. Great experience!
