Carens Wine and Cheese Bar

When you want a nice restaurant that serves very nice and legendary Toronto wine, think Carens Wine and Cheese Bar. This French-inspired Wine Bar ranks among the best in the city of Toronto. They serve authentic French classics and daily specials with a Parisian influence. To make their services very good, they are open all day until 2 a.m. daily. This intimate Yorkville gem serves as the perfect spot for lunch, dinner, or just an awesome glass of their prosecco sangria. If you do stop by though, you’ll most likely regret not trying out their heavy collection of wine. You will also not like it if you do not get to eat their mac & cheese. Oh, and ask for a seat out back on the cutest patio you may ever see.

Skin and Bones

Skin and Bones place great importance on the art of eating and drinking. In fact, the dishes are created with a special wine in mind (although they won’t judge if you decide to do more wine than food). Oak tables and minimal decor let the spotlight shine on the gastronomic experience. The extensive wine list includes wines from all over the world at all price points. If the aroma of excellent food wafting in your direction convinces you to do a pairing, you can even have a surprise menu, where you are at the whim of the chef, Luca Gatti and the sous-chef, Lauren Brown. Your taste buds are safe at this Toronto wine bar.

Reds Wine Tavern

Given its location inside First Canadian Place (Canada’s tallest skyscraper) in Toronto’s financial district, one would expect Reds to be an exclusive dining spot for those with expense accounts. But while this Toronto wine bar tends toward the high-powered business people in designer suits, the food is approachable in both style and price. It’s clear that all menu items, as well as the selection of 15 kinds of cheese from Canada and around the world, are meant to pair well with wines from the 350-bottle cellar, or the more than 24 wines offered by the glass.
