Best Pre-Theater Restaurants in Chinatown / Kensington Market

Amazing experience and food, just a little pricey. We were filled up despite opting for the 5 course option.

One of the best restaurants ever. Experience was incredible. We had the 7 course dinner. It was an adventure. Trust the server what he offers and there will be surprises. For those wondering why I said it was an adventure. Go try it yourself and see.

We wanted a nice restaurant with a quiet ambience to celebrate a birthday with just the two of us. This was exactly what we got: tables far enough apart that we could converse, attentive but unobtrusive staff, excellent food and reasonably priced wine. We each had an app, both ordered the seafood linguine- one with the oil, herb and garlic sauce, the other with the house made tomato sauce. We shared a chocolate raspberry tartuffo which was ample. It’s not cheap but worth it. And right in the heart of the theatre district, so easy to get to the theatre or concert on time. We will return.

Love the place, the servers have so much energy and the deco of the restaurant is gorgeous, the food is amazing, especially the foie gras, with so many little surprise treats, the restaurant definitely worth more visits

Love Canteen. Excellent food, service. No blaring music. Steps from Princess of Wales. Our Go To for theatre district.
