Went with my family and had an amazing meal! The food was perfect and the staff was great

Came with high expectation but left with disappointment. Atmosphere was great and chill for family & friends to sit together. However, food is over-priced and over-salty. Waiter did not give a clear introduction of the featured menus, highly disappointed when the food I received was not matching what they described. Fish of the day, coming with only two small pieces, the rest is full with cheap squid and small mussels. Soup of the day, no fish at all, same taste as the main entry. Let alone the door opened and closed during the entire dinner time, extremely cold inside.

Batifole has wonderful food and service. Each dish was beautifully presented and delicious. The staff and chef/owner were friendly and gracious. I very much recommend this restaurant.

A solid 4.5! Our daughter took 5 of us us there for my birthday and we had a great meal from start to finish. The wine, food, and service all hit the mark. Our server provided useful advice on the wine, the food was tasty and beautifully presented, and when the bottle of sparkling I ordered was out of stock, the server kindly provided a more expensive bottle for the same price. Highly recommended for high-end, tasty, and innovative French bistro food.

Delicious food, worth to try again. Small and cozy restaurant with a lot of historical figures photography around the wall. The results of the food is fantastic. I ordered duck confit wrapped up with pork belly, the fat from the pork belly balancing the dryness of the duck confit, which gave out a great experience for my food journey. The server can speak French or English, good smile with a professional services. The only concern is I went there in summer, it was around 26 degree outside. There's no AC while I was there, maybe it's better to go in winter.

By far, our favorite restaurant in Toronto. It is cozy, comfortable and very welcoming. The menu has the perfect selection of appetizers and main course offerings. The presentation and flavors were a delight. From the gazpacho (chilled soup), the scallops (perfectly prepared with a lemon mousse), to the roast eggplant and tomato confit—yum! Their French fries are gluten-free and perfectly crisp & hot. Signature cocktails + wine list added to the best gastronomical experience we have had in Toronto for a while. This is a neighborhood gem. Make a reservation. Walk ins may be turned away unless there is room at the bar.

First time visiting , what a great surprise overall , but must mention service was great, not rushed , ambience very cute and felt like we were in Provence France w Edith Piaf playing in the background. The duck breast was one of the best in the city, moist and medium rare and the steamed cod was moist , and delicious. Stephane, our server was well seasoned and a delight to have which made for a great evening We will definitely return to enjoy their cute patio once it opens
