Toronto Yorkville Restaurants
MoDo Resturant
By Kristen Brown
Warm greetings, ambient jazz and exposed brick illuminated by black and white films and candlelight welcome you out of the cold and into the warm and style that is MODO.
Located at 122 Avenue Rd., MODO sets the standard of what a Yorkville dining experience should be like.
With valet parking at the door and a friendly hostess to check your coat upon arrival, you know right away youre in good hands. MODOs old meets new theme means rich hardwood floors, imported furniture and modern accents that take you through the restaurant. The main bar is flanked with the buildings original large wooden beams. The upstairs dining area has open space that features intimate individual seating or can be combined to accommodate large parties. The restaurant itself is esthetically impressive. Warm drapes, candles everywhere and red accents make you look and feel like royalty.
Our server, Elvis, was extremely knowledgeable, attentive and genuine. All of his recommendations were bang-on
One of MODOs best features is a unique sampler option that allows you to choose an appetizer and two half portions of an entrée. This ingenious menu design makes the hardest decision of night to be whether you start on the left or right side of the beautifully presented plate.

Nestled in the heart of downtown Toronto, Donatello is the perfect place for a business lunch, a party, or a romantic dinner for two. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with fresh flowers on every table, gentle music playing in the background, and a friendly, knowledgeable staff. The elegant décor is highlighted by the lovely furnishings and stunning marbleized walls.
