                                                I am a UofT alumni so really enjoyed being back on the campus at Hart House. Menu was different from what is posted online so that was confusing. Food was interesting.

The menu was able to accommodate carnivore, vegetarian,vegan and gluten free which was very good. We only had water and coffee so cannot comment on wine menu. Overall it was a nice meal in very nice environment.

                                                We had a lovely lunch at the Gallery Grill! Delicious food for a cold wintry day. Excellent service.
