With a relaxed, refined atmosphere, La Palma is the perfect spot to catch up with a friend over drinks, dine with your lover for dinner, or celebrate your most special occasions with family. Chef Craig Harding's food is Italian at heart but the menu at La Palma reflects a California sensibility and remains playful, reflecting dishes and ingredients from other Mediterranean cuisines and cultures. Whether you're grabbing take-out for an impromptu picnic in the park, or enjoying a patio dinner with a view of sunlit Dundas West, La Palma has you covered.For parties of 6-9 we strongly recommend our Family Style's Chef's Menu. This multi-course meal includes several dishes from our a la carte menu plus exclusive off-menu items--most of the dishes are served family style, as our menu was created with sharing in mind!

4.7
Exceptional(109)
Price: Expensive
• Canadian • The Junction
Booked 19 times today
General Public is inspired by trying to imagine what an upscale English pub would be if it had the heart of an American brasserie (and was open 11 to 11). It’s also going to signal a little bit of steakhouse, but not too much. And finally, it will look behind itself at the Black Hoof, which you will see reflected in James Santon’s menu here and there. In terms of vibe, the main floor is ‘everything’s gone green’, with lush comfortable banquette seating, warm wood, and barstools designed for long conversations over many cocktails. Upstairs you’ll find a completely different space that transports you to a peachy 80s dream. Somehow these two halves make perfect sense, and complement each other in a seamless conversation, where neither wins the argument, but you really do have to see it! See you soon!

    Fantastic place. I've been there a couple of times (once with a larger group of adults and once with a friend and her kids), and both times everything was fantastic. The food and cocktails are outstanding, as is the service. Recommended: best guacamole I've ever had, and the molcajete (basically hot pot) was an experience. A friend loved the aguachiles. As for cocktails, the mescalitas and Honey and Smoke are big winners. The tequila flights were a good way to try some high end tequilas at a good price. Less recommended: the crickets and ants are a fun novelty, but they're a bit underwhelming. Though they're worth trying, and they add a bit of a different flavour to the guac. Worth trying though, but don't expect a big bowl of them. They're more seasoning than side. The tacos were good, but... well, try the molcajete. Other notes: the manager was extremely nice to my friend's kids and went out of his way to entertain them. Definitely went above and beyond. Incidentally, if you think the prices look high... well, welcome to inflation, but with the quality and portion size, it's worth it. This place is well-reviewed for a reason, and is absolutely worth visiting.

    Been here probably 10 times and every time is always amazing. Food is great, service is great, ambiance is always nice. Cocktails are very good. A must to get the gelato every single time, it changes often.
