Alobar Yorkville 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 Michelin starred 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. Alobar Yorkville boasts a comfortable courtyard patio merging warm skies with ice cold cocktails during the summer.

Alobar Yorkville received 1 Michelin Star in 2022 & 2023.

From the OpenTable editors: As its name suggests, Alobar excels in the drinks department, offering standout cocktails and a well-curated wine list. As the laid-back sister spot to the renowned tasting menu restaurant Alo, Alobar shares the same passion for local ingredients and borderless culinary inspirations.

    I have been to most of the other Alo locations but this was my first time dining at Alobar Yorkville and frankly it was underwhelming. Service was extremely slow so it took quite a while to place our order and for food to then arrive. We were seated at the bar and not a table so it was a bit disconcerting to be approached by the hostess and informed that the next guests were arriving so we needed to finish up and leave; then having a server hover over us and then shove the bill and credit card machine in front of us. Not a good look for what is supposed to be a 'high end' establishment. I likely won't ever return.

    The service was impeccable and we never felt rushed. The ravioli with light cream sauce was outstanding as well as the New Brunswick oysters served with shaved horseradish. The drinks were equally outstanding. This restaurant has tremendous attention to detail.

    A tremendous dinner — excellent food and service from start to finish. Impressive flavour combinations, equally impressive quality of components, amplified by attentive and warm service. Will be adding Alobar to my regular rotation. Highly recommended!

    Everything was great! Our server was awesome. Glad this place was on Opentable- from out of the country and unfamiliar with the area. Great wine selection! Stellar sea bream!

    We went to Alobar for dinner right after our wedding. Everyone loved the food and remarked that the striploin steak and lobster were the best they’ve ever had. I thought the broccolini was the real scene stealer. The ambience was lovely, perfect for the occasion, and the noise level was moderate. The folks waiting us were friendly and overall we had a lovely night.
