Had been wanting to come for many months and it was worth the wait. Wow what a great wine bar that is so intimate, cozy and has wonderful food and service. We started with the bread and butter chive and garlic, smoked trout dip and ricotta and roasted butternut squash. All were incredible and had unique and wonderful flavours. For the main we shared the braised beef cheek which had wonderful crispy potatoes too. So delicious. We also had the roasted carrots. Everything was a hit and this is definitely a place we will return to. Wonderful service too. Definitely a great night out in Toronto.
We had a fabulous evening at the Wood Owl. It was our first visit for everyone in the group and the service was warm and attentive. We had a couple of dietary restrictions - they were able to accommodate well and the server was very well versed on modifications for each item. Every dish was great, particularly the scallop crudo - we ended up ordering a second one after trying it. Nice selection of wines by the glass and the cocktails were lovely. Will definitely be back!
Super flavourful dishes at The Wood Owl Danforth east. Seriously recommend them. Not an off note anywhere, each mouthful bursts with surprise, Michelin level flavours, accompanied by excellent wine suggestions. Tiny spot, with requisite noisy Danforth patio, but outrageously good food. Menu changes seasonally and as new locally sourced ingredients become available.
Beautiful little spot. Cozy interior. Perfectly understated. Delicious sharing plates as well as larger dishes. Great wine list. Staff was absolutely lovely. It would be lovely to have a larger by-the-glass selection. But maybe it’s a bit limited due to the current capacity restrictions.
We had a fantastic time here. The staff were amazing, attentive and a pleasure to deal with! The food was also delicious! They do not have many beers on tap,but the wine selection is good. We'll be back for sure.
Went in for some late night snacks and drinks. Wow … they have really nice ambiance of retro style Ossington strip vibe. Since we ordered cheese plate, it would be a right choice to go with wine but we were very curious about some cocktail choices. Both Spanish Fizz & Sazerac were delicious. Raw goat cheese Treizeme Apotre from QC on the cheese plate was fantastic. When dipped in honey, it was like I was in heaven. Rosemary crackers were also soooo good, we had to order extra. Staff kept coming back to our table to make sure we got everything we needed. Would recommended this place for great wine sipping, cocktails, small plate food for a date night or girls night out.
I'd visited The Wood Owl before when they first opened but tonight, everything we ordered was damn near perfection. The Bavette steak and tarragon bordelaise was perfection. The perfect rare-medium rare flavour explosion. The Hokkadio scallop crudo with cara cara orange was such a delightful and pleasant surprise! I LOVED the balance of flavours in this dish. To drink the Southside: Gin, lemon and mint syrup was perfectly balanced for my tastes. And to top it off, a rich chocolate cake with creme fraiche, hazelnut and coffee crunch. The chocolate cake was rich like a brownie to me. We walked in at 6pm and lucked out with a table right away but make a reservation to be safe. They were steady and busy even for a Tuesday night. You won't be disappointed if you enjoy delicious food in a cozy, wood paneled, warm neighbourhood gem kind of vibe. Happy eating!
Looking for a great new spot to check out? We had dinner last night at The Wood Owl, brought to us by The Wren, and right next to it on the Danforth. Just opened, they are a wine bar with sharing plates, appetizers and a few entrees, and I can tell you, everything we had was really, really, really good! Pictured are the Rockfish Crudo, Chicken Liver Mousse with challah, olives and the Za'Atar Eggplant Frites. There are a few cocktails, and several wines available by the glass, plus a long list of wine bottles. No reservations, indoor dining only, and they are leaving lots of distance between guests. We cannot wait to return! Support Local <3
I usually review places when the food comes and rave about the food. But my bad this evening, the food was sooooooo good that it didn’t even have chance to snap a pic. Shout out to the staff for fitting us in and make this night memorable with our our dear friends. We will be back and next time with the picture of awesome food. Please come try it out and you will love it , like we did!
Food is top notch, as is the service. We highly recommend the beef tartare, straciatelle with roasted peach, and wonderful wine pairings. Trust the server recommendations!
