Alice GongNovember 5, 2017I’ve been here 3 times and always loved it! Menu changes but never was I disappointed! I love here for a wide range of great oysters and all sorts of dessert and seafood done the French way ;)
Yunus TaslielFebruary 26, 2018This little guy (a.k.a. the Sipping Chocolate) could is the best hot chocolate I tried in Toronto. It is completely melted 65% Peruvian dark chocolate with no added milk!
- C ReyJune 25, 2016Upscale French inspired cuisine with excellent seafood offerings. Seafood tower is plenty to share and worth it! Wonderful outdoor seating and service. Ask for guidance on menu and wine pairings.
Steve JohnstonMay 24, 2017This place was exquisite! The decor, the service, the atmosphere, and best of all: the menu! For brunch, get some pastries, try some fusion eggs benny, like the Banh Mi benny!
Hans NelsonAugust 6, 2018First time trying poutine, after years of working in Canada. Amazing! The service, vibe, and food at Cluny are all amazing! I would definitely recommend this place for a great night out.
Kyo SongFebruary 1, 2016Fantastic modern French fare! Enjoyed the Moroccan chickpea and sweet potato tagine was a highlight. Their bakery section is also great if you want a snack (try their crepes). A bit pricey
Mariana LSeptember 1, 2014Salmon tartare, deconstructed salmon ravioli is wonderful. They make an excellent steak. Duck poutine a little heavy. King and queen kale salad may not sound exciting , but loved.
Must try the passionfruit soufflé if you dine in. Share with a date. Or get the Greek yogurt sorbet to go (@ the boulangerie) and walk around. A pretty resto- prob the go-to spot in the Distillery.
Joe ManuguidMarch 30, 2015The oyster special is a great deal ... The bread selection is amazing but surprisingly I found the foie gras a bit over done (rubbery) so explicitly remind them to not over cook the foie gras
- Mary GonsalvesJune 14, 2019The seafood lunch and the Frenchy burger are absolutely incredible. The bread that they give you is amazing as well and I love how the butter was unsalted. And the dining atmosphere is beautiful.
Nacho YagueSeptember 3, 2014I started with "Lime and chili marinated black king fish" and it was delicious. As a main course, I ordered "lamb two ways" . very tasty and fulfilling although it looks like is a tiny portion.
What a great place! Could it be that Toronto is finally getting a few decent places to eat outside of chinese food??? Bravo Cluny but certainly not cheap... Enjoy it folks!
Jesse P.August 7, 2014Surprised at the great options for vegetarians! Try the sesame crusted asparagus sticks, the two-kale salad, and definitely the sweet potato couscous. It was spectacular!
Simply to die for Lake Ontario fish and crispy perfect frites. Ask for the home made tarragon mayo. It is so good.
ShilanSeptember 7, 2020We liked the braised beef but it was too oily. We loved the madame duck, it was yummy! Drinks here are too pricey, especially the Mojito was really disappointing because 3/4 of the glass was only ice!
AntonMay 23, 2016This place's got quite nice interior. As for the food, it suffers from typical modern French cuisine problem - boring simple food, and smallest portions in the world. The bread they serve is great.
H KMay 29, 2018The Frenchy (burger) and steak and frites were really good. Also, get the pastry plate if you like French pastries!!- Julia LancNovember 8, 2018The atmosphere here will make you feel like you are somewhere in Europe. If you are a fan of Beef Tartare, try their Table Side Beef Tartare.
Sebastian KeeganApril 12, 2015The burger is great but beware--it's huge. Probably around a pound. You may want to take it easy with the appetizers. The baked sauvagine was outstanding. Steak tartare was nice.
DeniseFebruary 7, 2016Beautifully prepared and delicious French cuisine. Portions are perfectly sized and will leave you wanting to come back again and again.
Sarah GiesbrechtSeptember 22, 2014Everything I had was delicious, but I would have to say the highlights were the asparagus frites and the passion fruit soufflé.
Ada UbreziJuly 5, 2016The best avocado / crab toast ever in nicely set up French atmosphere with attentive staff!
Mark KwongFebruary 15, 2016French onion soup is amazing, the lobster bisque has actual good amount of lobsters in it and it's FRESH.
Karla DonjuanJune 25, 2021Breakfast drinks! My favorite! The veggie tartine kept me full the whole day!
Penelope MeyrelesNovember 15, 2019The mocktails are delicious! The salmon and the greens salads very good!
I had the wagyu hache. The swagyu was a bit chewy but juicy.
- C SAugust 4, 2019French food for people that have never had French food. Beautiful space, subpar tourist trap food. They deep fried asparagus when it's in season 🤦🏼♂️
Sabah HaddaraJanuary 1, 2016Gorgeous decor and great staff. Our food was alright, but maybe that was because we were some of the last patrons to order that night...
Food is always great, the cocktails are hit or miss(so stick to wine)
- markham guyJune 3, 2015Oh my god been here twice, beautiful building but the food it aweful, so sad....
Franz VitulliSeptember 25, 2016Seafood stew's dominant flavour was saffron. Our mains arrived across 10 mins (we were 4). Asked for a spoon, asked for the wifi password, they were never brought to me. Utterly disappointing.
Laura CTNovember 11, 2014Skip the bread experience and request pastries from the front to be brought to your table
Scooter ThompsonFebruary 23, 2019The grilled cheese was the only edible savory hot food. Quiche was too salty and beef pie was minced.- HanBi KFebruary 7, 2016Hm.. Honestly french cuisine is not my favourite. Food was ok.. Salad was good but the main dishes were boring.

"Worth a trip to the Distillery just for this beer hall. Keep an eye out on their website, or the Distillery website, for special food/beer events. Delicious food, and great for groups OR dates."
