    Been here a handful of times and came here to celebrate husband's birthday. We loved the carpaccio and burger, the fungi pasta was lacking flavour this time around, very bland which was quite disappointing since that was our favourite dish from you guys. I also requested if you guys did anything special for birthdays in the notes but no acknowledgement of this.This was a one off but still thoroughly enjoyed the food, good service and ambiance.

    Everyone was warm and attentive and being that we were celebrating a birthday, our server delivered something special to commemorate the event! A really outstanding meal through and through. In fact, we discussed over dinner that fantastic dining experiences like you are always sure to have at The Ace are rare in Toronto these days. Happy to have been able to celebrate at The Ace, and already looking forward to being back.
