Don Alfonso 1890 is the first North American restaurant of Michelin Star Chefs Alfonso & Ernesto Iaccarino. It offers a sophisticated fine dining Italian experience with flavors inspired by the Amalfi Coast. Located on the 38th floor of the Westin Harbour Castle, the restaurant provides stunning panoramic views of Lake Ontario and the Toronto cityscape, making it an ideal destination for special occasions.
Customers consistently praise the elegant and intimate ambiance, the stunning views, and the exceptional, attentive service where staff explain each dish. The food is described as beautifully presented, flavorful, and made with quality ingredients, with many highlighting the thoughtful combination of flavors and textures. While the overall experience is often deemed unforgettable and perfect for celebrations, some reviewers note the extremely high prices. Minor criticisms include occasional issues with washroom cleanliness and, in rare instances, a perceived lack of special acknowledgment for birthdays despite prior notification.
Don Alfonso 1890 offers both a prix fixe menu and a tasting menu, allowing guests to sample a wider range of dishes. The restaurant moved to its current prominent location on top of the Weston Harbour Castle from its earlier Queen Street address.
Ideal for dinner, especially for celebrating special occasions or romantic evenings, to fully appreciate the fine dining experience and city views.
