Description

Set in the affluent northern suburb of South Hill, Scaramouche has been a Toronto mainstay for decades, with Chef Keith Froggett at the helm since 1983. Don’t be alarmed when you arrive and head downstairs to the restaurant thinking you are off to a basement—you're not, as the superb city skyline view soon proves.Guests come for the views and stay for the traditional French cuisine. Don't expect modern twists, as dishes such as foie gras terrine with a sour cherry reduction and rabbit loin wrapped with bacon sided by a fricassee of sweet peas and fava beans, are as classic as they come.

Food quality is highly praised, with dishes like lobster bisque, seafood spaghetti, and short ribs receiving specific acclaim. The kitchen accommodates dietary restrictions, such as gluten-free needs, effectively. Service is generally excellent, with staff like Andrew and Shirley commended for their attentiveness. However, some guests reported slow meal pacing and long waits for mains without explanation. The atmosphere is elegant but occasionally loud.
