Hubby and his cousins and I stumbled upon Madeline's on a warm summer Monday night, when we discovered that our previously determined dinner spot was closed for renovations.
What an awesome turn of events...
One of the most beautiful restaurants I have ever visited. Walking off of Kings Street and into Madeline's is the closest to stepping into a fairy tale I have ever experienced.
The decor makes me think of a whimsical and sexy place where one would run into Jessica Rabbit.
Extraordinarily talented restaurant staff who put love and creativity into every dish.
A wine list that while not overly extensive, offers something for all tastes.
The hostess, waiter etc. were the epitome of professional. Our group took our time, enjoyed each course, shared food and truly reveled in our accidental 5 star evening.
I will for sure make a special trip again the next time we are in Toronto and I suggest that anyone who loves creative food, incredible service and a notable atmosphere visit Madeline's.
Notable vegetarian options:
spinach ricotta gnocchi
garlic chips
dessert, blueberry tart in a flaky pocket with homemade cream atop
unfortunately, I see the other items we tried must have been seasonal as not listed online
