Opened in 2017. Michelin-recommended since 2022.We first imagined Aloette to be the perfect diner that we’d want to dine in – a menu with a great cheeseburger paired with a fantastic and fun wine list, a long row of bar stools facing the bar and the kitchen, and an energetic atmosphere accented with an old school hip hop playlist. The buzz of the dining room mirrors the energy of the street on Spadina Avenue; the dining room itself mimics a train’s dining car. It’s a bistro-meets-diner-meets-internationally-inspired menu which is also representative of the diverse culture in Toronto. Our service team is upbeat and genuine but also deeply knowledgeable about the menu and offerings. Brunch at Aloette was something we said we’d never do. But the city kept asking and we’re glad to be a new staple in the Queen West neighbourhood for mimosas, chicken and waffles, and piping hot coffees. We hope you love our little diner as much as we and our team do. Patrick Kriss & Zane Pearl

    Our experience at Blueblood Steakhouse was the best dining experience we ever had. Tiffany was our very experienced and professional server. She truly facilitated a memorable experience by making expert recommendations for us and providing excellent service. We had the Tomahawk steak and the American ribeye steak with mash potatoes, broccolini and Cesar salad. The food was amazing. We started with the grilled octopus and ended with coffee, crème brûlée and coconut cream pie. All four of us look forward to coming back soon. Thank you for a wonderful evening of delicious food and fantastic service.

    This place did not disappoint. Excellent food, everything we had (4 people sharing) was just amazing. Service was great, some good recommendations from our server on how many dishes to share. Save room for dessert too - a small but mighty dessert menu! One small criticism was that we felt a bit rushed at the end, they had a booking after us at 9:30pm - tables of 4 have 2 hours I guess, but we weren’t seated until 7:45 for our own booking. It just felt like it brought the dinner to a very abrupt end!
