   I came across Mineral on my feed one day and was instantly drawn by their menu. We decided to try the Tasting Menu, and it exceeded our expectations. The variety, presentation, and portion sizes were great, and every dish was absolutely delicious and oh so yummy!!! We could truly feel the chef’s passion and the careful thought put into each course. The selection of drinks was also impressive. We really enjoyed our visit to Mineral and we will surely be back with friends. 👍👍👍

   Really enjoyed our experience. The food was delicious! Chef Danny was so welcoming. The food kept surprising us. It had elements of home but also new twist that surprisingly went well together. The tasting menu was the best experience with the drink pairings. The use of the best ingredients and the careful attention to detail made this experience exceptional. Satisfying you with texture, flavour and presentation. The service was incredible, our sommelier was Jordan, extensive knowledge of the wine drink pairings. The whole team were amazing. Definitely going back and bringing visitors as well.

   Food was amazing, service was immaculate, and the chef offered us complimentary food to try and the house! You can’t go wrong with trying their take/version of Filipino cuisine. 100% recommended for anyone trying to have a good night w/ great ambience. 10/10 recommended

   Mineral is an excellent choice for anyone looking to experience Filipino cuisine with a contemporary twist. The price point is on the higher side, but for the quality, presentation, and overall experience, it’s absolutely worth it. Highly recommend.

   The food was good, the ube flan and salmon were fantastic. The portions were quite small and we were left hungry after the meal despite both partner and I choosing the tasting menu. We had a snack before dinner and after dinner For the main, I wonder if they use a large protein portion for two people or if it’s the same size. there were a lot (more than expected number) of shared plates vs individual portions which I have experienced with other chefs tasting. Also sitting by the back by the chefs table was tight. The sever hit my chair probably 5-6 times throughout the night even after tucking in which was very annoying. If they had apologize then sure but they didn’t. The timing was also off in terms of dishes. It did come quickly but there was one instance where we had just finished eating and then the next dish was being fitted on the counter before things could be removed. It felt a bit rushed and took away from the experience. Some food came like 40s after another and it was to fast while others took few minutes. Harder to appreciate the food. Also wouldn’t have mind if they provide more context on how to eat some then dishes instead of being told what it is.

   Incredible experience. The food was delicious and the dishes were so comforting. I loved every bite and every course was so unique and satisfying. The one flan was spectacular, as was the starter soup, lobster wonton and the salmon sinagang.

    I went here with my husband to have a date night for the first time since having a baby. We decided on getting the chef tasting menu. The dishes were presented beautifully and tasted good aside for the tuna kinilaw was a bit too salty. The two issues I had was that when it came to the main (salmon sinigang, rice and charred broccolini) it is only one serving no matter how many people are in your party which does not make sense if you’re paying $95 per person, you should not be given a main to share. There was a lady sitting across from us that was being served the tasting menu at the same time and it was clear that she had the same portion for her meal. There are also other lower ratings posted with the same issue with the servings, I should have read them before deciding to go here. The dessert (one leche flan) was also served to share. The second issue was that they mentioned that they were out of the scallop lumpia so the waiter recommended the lobster dumpling was available which we said was fine, not knowing that it would cost additional $9 per person as the waiter did not mention it. I would recommend if you want to come to experience the food, go alone but overall it isn’t worth it and there are plenty other tasting menus in Toronto that are better where you are not expected to share your main and dessert when you’re paying per person. After a 2 hour dinner, we left unfulfilled and still hungry after paying $230.
