    What an amazing place to escape to on a cold winters night. You are transported into a Spanish blend of flavours, music and decor. The bikini sandwich paired with the croquettes are definitely a must and will offer you a knockout punch of flavour. Great place for a 1st, 2nd and 23rd date.

    Dopamina feels like a criminally underrated restaurant in Toronto, the food is unbelievably good and there is clearly a massive amount of attention put into every component of every dish. Dishes that can readily be found elsewhere are taken to a completely different level (their beef tartare is hands down the best I've ever had), and their own creations are home-run takes on classical preparations with Japanese ingredients (their Agnolotti is to die for). The service is also absolutely amazing and really completes an incredible experience. Would not hesitate to recommend to anyone looking for a really elevated dining experience in Toronto! P.S: Their cocktails are extremely good, I had the "Surprise Me" and it was an utterly delicious drink but also perfectly cleansed my palette between courses
