Toronto’s annual celebration of the city’s exceptional restaurants returns this summer. From Friday, July 3 to Sunday, July 19, residents and visitors from around the world can explore Toronto’s diverse culinary scene and treat their tastebuds at more than 240 local restaurants citywide.
Reservations are now open, and diners can book directly with participating restaurants. Reservations are strongly recommended as spots fill quickly. There are more than 30 new participating restaurants this year, including Alobar Downtown, Casa Morales, CKB, El Inka Peruvian Cuisine, Flame Sushi, The Frederick, Ju-Raku, Koh Lipe Scarborough, Melani, Punch, and Tis Two Cities. A complete list of participating restaurants with their menus is available on the City of Toronto’s Summerlicious webpage.
Whether gathering with friends, family, or colleagues, sampling a new style of cuisine in a different neighbourhood, or going for a solo dining experience, Summerlicious brings the perfect opportunity to experience the best of the summer season while supporting Toronto’s vibrant local restaurants and small businesses.
Summerlicious 2026 media partners include CHUM 104.5, CP24, Newstalk 1010, NOW Toronto, Toronto Star and Virgin Radio 99.9.
About Winterlicious and Summerlicious
Launched in 2003, the Winterlicious and Summerlicious programs were created by the City to support the local restaurant industry during slower business periods. Since then, the programs have served more than eight million meals and generated more than $353 million in economic activity for Toronto restaurants.
