  • I went to Yours Truly for dinner one night while visiting Toronto, and overall I would say that while the restaurant has a unique way of has a new way of preparing its menu, but the portion sizes are too small to justify the price. We heard a lot of buzz regarding this restaurant, and with it being new, we wanted to check it out during our visit. The menu is a set of eight ingredients, which are divided into two ingredients for four courses. Since there were two of us, we decided to just split them up and get all eight different dishes. Some of the dishes were inventive, like the carrot two ways, which was a new twist on carrots. (I think was the first time I have like a carrot-only dish.) But some of the dishes, whileI could see what they are trying to do, they plated it very oddly. The meat dish was basically some type of beef tartare over sushi rice with huge lotus leaves on top, ...on a plate that was five times bigger than it needed to be, resulting in the dish seeming too small. Luckily, we didn't come to Yours Truly hungry, because we probably would have left hungry even after their four-course meal. The size of the courses more portended to a 10-course meal and not a four-course meal, in my opinion. The service was nothing special. Our waitress was kind of in and out, and somewhat condescending when we were talking about the dishes. I did like that the kitchen staff brought out their own creations, but I understand that in a busy restaurant, that's not always possible with every dish. It also took quite a while for us to get our cocktails, and while I asusme that the bar must be slammed during dinner, that's just a failure of management if you don't know how many bartenders should have for a full restaurant. (I hate when servers and bartenders use that a bar is "busy" as an excuse for slow service, because it's not our fault for coming when you have open reservations.) Overall, I don't think I would recommend Yours Truly, mostly because there are so many quaint and charming restaurants up and down Ossington Avenue, the competition is rough. Plus, the Toronto food scene is really good, so I definitely think that this restaurant is relying more on buzz and the style of its menu than providing an actually filling prix-fixe option.
