chef Dale MacKay's flagship and the marquee fine-dining room in the city, anchored by Top Chef Canada pedigree and an open kitchen you can watch work. the cooking is ambitious and the service is among the most polished in town, the kind of evening you book for a real occasion. expect a tasting-menu sensibility and a wine list to match, in a room that knows exactly what it is doing. it is a splurge, and it earns it. reserve well ahead, especially for weekends.
wood-fired Neapolitan pizza on 21st Street, the kind of pie with a blistered, chewy crust that comes out of a proper hot oven. the menu keeps the pizza list short and the wine list long, leaning into small-producer bottles worth asking about. it is relaxed but dialled-in, equally good for a date or a table of friends sharing pies. this is the spot locals tend to send visitors to first. it gets busy at dinner, so go early or be ready to wait for a table.
