resto review: dandylion


One of our favorite things to do is check out new restaurants in the city. Toronto has such an amazing food scene, there's always something new to check out. There's also too-many-to count, old favorites that we've been to too many times. I figured I would start sharing some of the spots we try... 
We recently checked out Dandylion as a treat to celebrate my completion of some school courses I've been working on.

Restaurant: Dandylion (Queen and Gladstone)
Reservation: Yes (although they did sit a walk in at the table beside us - there's only about 30 seats)
Atmosphere: Intimate and Simple - imagine exposed brick walls, open kitchen, plants hanging from every ledge available. There are no frills or distraction - the focus is on the food.
Service: Very good - attentive without over doing it. Our waitress was very personable and lovely.
Food: Starters: Squid + Beef tartar // Mains: Morels with rice + Cod with shrimp //Dessert: Custard with rhubarb
Small menu - three options in the three categories of starter, main and dessert. For the starter and main courses there was a veg, seafood and meat option. The dishes were beautifully presented, simple in ingredients and very fresh tasting.
Would you go back? Yes, but not in a rush. Not because the food wasn't good but because it's such a small menu. I would definitely recommend it to friends and save a return trip for a special occasion during another season when the menu might offer something new to try.
