Our Story

Our focus is on artisanal producers locally and from around the world.

Since opening in 2003, GEORGE Restaurant has established its place as an acclaimed culinary destination, and is known today as one of the best fine dining experiences in the country. Led by Executive Chef Lorenzo Loseto, GEORGE has been featured as a recommended restaurant in the Michelin Guide for two consecutive years, appearing in both 2022 and 2023 Canadian editions.

Situated in downtown Toronto on Queen Street East and located within a restored 1850’s chocolate factory, GEORGE serves as a central location for dinners, corporate events, weddings, cocktail receptions, and more. Heritage building features and an eclectic mix of contemporary artwork provide a stunning backdrop, complementing Chef Loseto's vibrant fare.

GEORGE guests can choose from an à la carte tasting menu or Chef Loseto's signature Chef's Choice tasting experience, customized according to each guest's preferences. With our team of trained sommeliers, we can recommend the best matches to pair with Chef Loseto's cuisine, many of which can be ordered by the glass.

Our ideal downtown location, warm hospitality, and vibrant space ensure an ambiance and experience second to none.
