Reviews for Donna’s in Toronto, ON
Donnas was utter delight. This was our first time here and we can’t wait to plan our next visit. First off, loved the vibe of... the place. The interior is so cute and strikes that perfect balance of contemporary and vintage. Can’t go wrong with all thosehouseplants too. Of course, the food is amazing well. Had to try the Miss Vickie’s, Sprats and Peppercinos. Paired perfectlywith my Vermouth Seltzer. We also enjoyed the Squash and Goat Cheese salad and Cod Croquettes. All wonderful dishes withbeautiful complex flavours. For our main course we ordered the Pork Shoulder Chop - wow it was good! The pork was cookedperfectly and it was so juicy and tender. We highly recommend ordering a side of the Sourdough Toast to sop up all thatwonderful sauce. We finished our meal with the pear tart. I wish there was a smidge more pear, but the flavour itself wasoutstanding - loved the cheese ice cream! Have to conclude this review by commending Lucy for her excellent service. Sheexpertly guided us through the menu and made us feel right at home. What a pro! Can’t wait to come back! Read more
Everything was delicious my first time at Donna’s. Great drinks, solidly made martini. We shared a bunch of dishes, the beef... tongue was great and the roast beef was fantastic. The radish leaves were a great touch. The “deep and delicious” dessertwas a real standout, we fought over the last bite. Great service, great dinner. Read more
Small but QUALITY and special menu. PEA SALAD? unexpectedly fabulous. Loved the clean vintage aesthetic with and felt... fantastically LGBTQ2S+ friendly. Super nice patio and very spacious inside. Accessibility: Bathrooms downstairs, beware yourknees! Read more
Recommended by a friend. Lovely wait staff and delicious meal in a comfortable, bright atmosphere. We had the potato tortilla... (divine) and shrimp sandwich (delightful) hydrated by their elderflower lemonade. Read more
Scrumptious, fresh food and a pleasant atmosphere. Just get there early so you don’t miss the breakfast specials - they look... really special! Really looking forward to returning to this place again. Read more
Donna’s exhibits great hospitality and I’ve tried a handful of their seasonal menus which never fails to amaze me. Patiently... waiting until their corn dish and pea salad returns on their menu. Need to visit earlier for their peanut butter & misocookies. This visit, there’s two new dishes I tried along with the usual. The carrot/kohlrabi dish took me by surprise as itcame cold with a yogurt dip. The fish croquettes were their special item of the night (off menu) which was nice to try. Theleafy salad and chilli shrimp were superb as always. Their apple crumble was the perfect dessert to end the night. Read more
My new favorite restaurant in Toronto (maybe even Canada). I've been wanting to try Donna's since before the pandemic after my... sister and friends raved about it. Finally booked a table for my birthday, and it was spectacular. The interior is super quirkywith every plate being so unique. The service was impeccable, everyone was so friendly. The portions are great to share withother members of your party, and every dish is done so well. We started with the bread & butter, and the bread was SO chewy. Thecroquettes are so delicious, it reminded me of the ones I had in Spain! The salads are super flavourful, and perfectlycomplimented the special of the day - roast beef... BEST roast beef I ever had in my life. My sister and I don't love meatusually, but this was so tender, and the mashed potatoes with brussel sprouts were delicious as well. For dessert, thealmond/apple pie with fresh custard was so warm - perfect way to end the night. I already made plans to go back with my friendsnext week, I can't wait. It's honestly an amazing experience, I almost don't want to share how awesome this restaurant is!!! Read more
I love the fun atmosphere and the great food at this unique restaurant. The family style dinner is well with the price, you get... quite a large selection and everything is delicious. I particularly liked the rice and shrimp dish and the tongue. The drinksare fun and aren't too expensive though we did notice that there were sight inconsistency between orders. My grapefruit cocktailwas a little less grapefruity then my friend's. The pear tart is quite good though I didn't find the cheese ice cream to beparticularly cheesy. Overall a fantastic experience. I highly recommend going with a few friends to try out more of the menu. Read more
