Charming
Neighbourhood gem

The latest addition of the celebrated ARDO Hospitality Group led by co-owners, Sicilian-born Chef Roberto Marotta and Jacqueline Nicosia, Bar ARDO is for the discerning and culinary curious without ever being pretentious. It’s the place you can meet friends for a casual, authentic aperitivo that turns into dinner. It’s an expression of serendipity when a memorable night just happens but feels fated.

Offering an array of small plates for convivial cocktail hour to generously portioned shareable dishes for leisurely repasts, the dining experience is punctuated by a curated selection of Old and New World wines, along with an innovative selection of signature cocktails, like the Carla Carla – an ocean infused martini elevated with caviar, alongside an exceptional assortment of non-alcoholic libations like the perfectly balanced Dry Pina which includes charred pineapple, pink peppercorn and a touch of chili.

Made the reservation two weeks in advance and confirmed it, only to find the restaurant closed on arrival. Terrible standard of customer service and for sure I will never go back.

Our first experience of Ardo. The ambience, service and food were outstanding. It was Saturday lunch, so sadly only one other person in the space, however the business of people passing by helped. The interior is outstanding. Sheik, beautifully appointed, comfortable. Our waiter, was both highly professional and friendly. He sold the product perfectly (Ben). I was touched by the fact that having mentioned in booking that it was my husbands birthday, he offered a dessert on the house and presented it with a candle. A nice touch. The food was easily the best restaurant food I’ve had in my 7 years in Canada. A wonderfully balanced menu, was hard to choose from, however thrilled with our choices. We were able to take our time and savour the food and place, and the quantities were just perfect. It will be our go to eatery when in Toronto …. Was worth driving 200ks to experience Thank you

We loved Bar ARDO, it’s a beautiful space, great food and excellent service. There was a DJ that played great music later in the evening too. We’ll definitely be back!

For a sit down dinner place the noise levels were higher than expected. A bit pricy but overall good was great.

Sitting at the bar and talking with our bartender Ben was a great way to spend the evening. All of the seafood appetizers we had were delicious, especially the tuna and oysters, the scallop also. The chick pea fritters were a nice surprise which I used as crackers for the tuna tartare.
