CKTL & Co.

CKTL & Co., is a new food, drink, and “social exchange” lounge opening in the city this spring. Staying on theme, the lounge will open in none other than Toronto’s Financial District at 330 Bay Street. And once May comes around, the new spot will be open to all to enjoy some delicious bites and bold cocktails.

When: Opening April 28th, 2023
Where: 330 Bay Street

Bar Sugo

If you’re familiar with Sugo’s delicious Italian cuisine (and you’re a fan) then you’ll want to check out Bar Sugo. Located just steps away from the famous Toronto restaurant, Bar Sugo is a full-service restaurant that serves the same, deliciously authentic Italian American cuisine.

When: Tuesday to Saturday from 5 PM to 11 PM
Where: 1279 Bloor Street W

Bar Habana

Tucked away in the very back of Toronto’s La Cubana on Ossington is the newest ‘speakeasy-ish’ spot, Bar Habana. Though they did open up in Leslieville, Bar Habana made the hard decision to move and recreate the elevated experience in the West. Stop by for mouthwatering Cuban sandwiches, Cuban-inspired cocktails, and the best vibes.

When: Open late.
Where: 92 Ossington Avenue

Madre De Lobo

Self-described as a spot for “exotic Mexican cuisine”, Madre De Lobo is Toronto’s newest Mexican restaurant set to open this May. Elevated, creative, and bold – get ready to eat and treat yourself to extravagant tacos that are loaded with all the best stuff.

When: Opening this May
Where: 1226 King Street W
