    It’s just the perfect spot.. cozy. French flair. Attentive staff. But they don’t rush the diners. Lingering is the best way to enjoy excellently prepared food.

    Our experience was amazing from the time we walked in to the time we left. They really do value the customer, I asked one gentleman where the washroom was and he escorted me all the way there. Our waitress, did not catch her name unfortunately, was outstanding! She introduced us to a new wine, and was very knowledgeable about the wine! They even offered my partner and I a complimentary dessert for our anniversary! Will definitely be returning!

    My family and I were visiting Toronto for a few days. We wanted to try French cuisine. After a few searches, we found La Plume. We made a reservation for Sunday, December 29, 2024. When we came in we were quickly greeted by the hostess and our jackets were complimentary put away. Our server was very friendly and attentive. He made our children feel at ease. The ambiance was calm and relaxing. We ordered the escargot as an appetizer and as our main dish the steak and frites. The food was full of flavor and fresh. I would for sure return to La Plume if I ever return to Toronto.
