Best Restaurants for Quiet Conversation in Bayview

We love George! proposed to come back every year on the date that I propose to my wife. We’ve been doing this for 11 years now. Not only is the food great, and the sommelier-based wine pairings are phenomenal, it’s also the little things like them remembering exactly where we sit, and they give us the same booth every time without even asking. I can’t say enough good things about the staff, the food, the ambience. It’s definitely Worth to go for a special occasion!

Outstanding as always! Joni never fails to impress with its exceptional customer service, exquisite cuisine, and stunning decor. The atmosphere is elegant and inviting, creating the perfect setting for a memorable dining experience. While the music performance could be improved to better complement the ambiance, it didn’t detract from the overall enjoyment. Joni remains one of my favorite restaurants in Toronto, offering an absolutely beautiful experience every time. Looking forward to returning soon!

I love eating at Clay and at the end of our meal I said to my lunch guest, 'This is my favourite place to have lunch in Toronto!' The staff are incredibly kind and welcoming and always treat us like family. We had a wonderful window table and looking across at the ROM is special. The room is bright and airy and the noise level moderate making it easy to have great conversation. The food was really delicious and creative and I look forward to my next visit in January.

Very attentive and delicate service. Chef's and waiters' attentions were much appreciated. Truly outstanding cuisine. However, while the wine list is impressive and quite wide-ranging, it is a challenge to find some medium-priced options as most wines are above $200. Our wine was excellent though even though its price was $150. A place to try for sure.

Excellent service provided expertly and with courtesy. The food was superb, as usual.
