The story
Aloette operates two distinct Toronto locations: Aloette Spadina at 163 Spadina Avenue and Aloette Bay on the fourth floor of 81 Bay Street. Both offer a contemporary approach to cooking, earning the restaurant a Michelin Recommended distinction in 2026.
At the Spadina location, dinner service runs daily starting at 5 pm, with Friday lunch and a happy hour from 3 to 6 pm, plus weekend brunch. The Bay Street location serves lunch on weekdays, happy hour from 3 to 5 pm, and dinner nightly except Saturday when dinner begins at 4:30 pm.
Counter dining is available at both venues, giving guests a front-row view of the kitchen's work. The atmosphere is polished yet approachable, with air conditioning for comfort year-round.
The menu changes seasonally, reflecting the restaurant's commitment to contemporary cuisine. While specific dishes are not detailed on the website, the Michelin guide's recognition signals a kitchen that delivers consistent, high-quality cooking.
Aloette's two addresses make it accessible to different parts of the city, each with its own rhythm. Whether you visit Spadina for brunch or Bay Street for a weekday lunch, the experience is grounded in thoughtful, modern cooking.
