Private dining in Toronto

Private dining spaces in Toronto arguably allow for the best eating-out experience. There's no risk of landing a table alongside a crying baby or an insufferable couple that insists on sitting on the same side of the table, and you can be sure you'll receive the most attentive service. Many restaurants in Toronto require you to spend a minimum amount on food or drinks before tax to book a private room, though a few give you the option of simply selecting from a prix-fixe menu, making the private dining experience not a terribly expensive endeavour. And if you elude the crying baby, it's certainly all worth it. Here are a few Toronto restaurants with private dining spaces.
