The wine was excellent, as always. thank you Jing for not only describing the wine but giving us the histories of producers. Thank you to the team that took care of us. Prime is the best restaurant in Toronto!

Excellent service from beginning to finish. The kitchen did an outstanding job! I have never had flavors like this before. The pacing of the tasting menu was perfect and the ambience was just right. Thank you everyone especially Farabi, Louis, Eder and Jack! I already look forward to the next visit!

What a fantastic first experience! The atmosphere was very chic while also feeling serene. The service was great! Our server was incredibly knowledgeable and attentive. Finally, the food was delicious! The veal carpaccio is a must and the pasta (snow crab) and seafood platter were succulent.

A Saturday night table of 3. The service was impeccable. The food was great. All of us in my party felt that the food was delicious but just missing that extra depth in flavour. The tables were too close together, in my opinion. Getting settled upon arrival and then when ready to leave was tricky as the chairs of the surrounding tables were too close. My drink, a mocktail, was scrumptious and looked beautiful.
