Our Story
Our focus is on artisanal producers locally and from around the world.
GEORGE Restaurant opened in 2003 with a simple intention: to offer a dining experience rooted in seasonality, creativity, and thoughtful hospitality. Led by Executive Chef Lorenzo Loseto, GEORGE has become a defining presence in Toronto’s fine dining scene, earning recognition in the MICHELIN Guide for four consecutive years (2022–2025).
Located in a restored 1850s chocolate factory on Queen Street East in downtown Toronto, GEORGE pairs historic character with contemporary art, creating a distinctive setting for intimate dinners, corporate events, weddings, and cocktail receptions.
Guests may choose from an à la carte tasting menu or Chef Loseto’s Chef’s Choice tasting experience, thoughtfully tailored to individual preferences. Guided by our trained sommeliers, each course can be paired with wines selected to complement the cuisine.
With its central location, warm service, and refined yet vibrant atmosphere, GEORGE offers a dining experience that feels both personal and enduring.
