Executive chef: Alycia Wahn Martindale

MICHELIN Bib Gourmand
2024

From the OpenTable editors: At Conejo Negro, chef Alycia Wahn’s commitment to scratch-made ingredients powers the bold flavours of her cooking. Wahn draws on Creole, Latin and Caribbean culinary traditions for dishes like macaroni pie and fried chicken with jicama and papaya slaw. Cocktails echo these cultural influences, while the lively atmosphere and Latin beats make it the kind of place where you'll want to linger.

We had a 6:15pm reservation for 2 on the covered, heated patio which was cozy and warm. The co-owner, Lamine, was friendly and had helpful recommendations. We ordered the cornbread (always delicious), a side macaroni pie (small size is plenty!), the kale & squash salad (huge and delish!), and the fried chicken. A lot of food for 2 and we both took leftovers home. Also ordered one glass of cava and one lychee cocktail--both delicious. Excellent food, great atmosphere, professional and fast service. Will be back again!

My food tasted good. But I wish it was warmer. My blackened fish was not warm enough and felt like Luke warm.

Lamine and the team are fantastic! They hosted us for a work dinner last night and the food was incredible. The service was immaculate and I will be coming back once a month. You can't find food like this anywhere in Toronto let alone on College. Their team is well deserving of the Michelin Star. Can't wait to come back!

Food was good. We had an awful server with a bad attitude. She didn’t like getting asked questions about the menu and my friends felt uncomfortable because of her attitude as well. Also, don’t sit outdoors- yes it’s heated but feet tend to get frozen and one of the servers turned down the heat without asking us.

Worst dining experience ever! There was only 1 hostess for the outdoor patio which was completely packed. I ordered my food and drink at the same time and my drink came when I was finished my meal. My food was cold and the cheese balls tasted stale, we didn’t event finish them. When we asked for the bill we had to wait 20 minutes for someone to bring it. We then had to wait more for the hostess to bring the pay machine which she didn’t do until I said something and then she proceeded to rudely tell me to wait. I will not be coming back here! Customer service was terrible.

This was my first time there and it was amazing. Most important call out - sit on the patio. It truly is a heated patio with a cover, lol, I am normally cold all the time but this was comfortable and the ambiance was still nice. Food was really good, I came with friends and we tried appetizers, sides and mains and just well seasoned and delicious. The drinks were good and the staff did a great job of being present and clearing the table without feeling like you were being rushed out despite it being a busy restaurant. We will definitely go again

Lamine and Diego are rockstars! Their staff also follow their lead to service excellence. Dishes were plentiful and tasty as always. Drinks were consistent and we were always taken care of and looked after even if it was to refill water glasses. Great vibes and we felt celebrated altogether especially being the last ones out! Thanks guys! Will be back soon
