I haven’t been to Adega in years but it is definitely one of my favourite seafood and Portuguese restaurants in Toronto! What I love most about this restaurant is that the staff are absolutely exceptional not to mention that the food is delicious. Everyone from...the host to our wait stuff and especially Ryan our waiter tonight were so knowledgeable, hospitable and accommodating. I’m so thrilled that this place is thriving even after the last few years that restaurants have been struggling. If you haven’t been here it is definitely a hidden gem but also a long-standing institution in Toronto with some of the most authentic and exceptional Portugese food. We enjoyed the delicious and plentiful platter and tonight’s special app the avocado and tomato salad which were so robust with flavour! I myself have been looking forward to enjoying this cataplan fish stew as I have fond memories of coming here often and enjoying it especially on a cold rainy day like today. The seafood risotto looked beautiful as well! The cocktail menu and wine menu is reflective of old school European bistros with many great wines to select from. Lastly, check out this beautiful cloud of meringue enrobed in caramel! So heavenly! I will definitely have to come back again soon! Thank you again to the staff for this incredible experience!More

The Perfect Meal. My wife and I have had some great meals since things opened back up again but none that compared to this one. It is rare that exceptional service and attention to detail to the quality of absolutely everything served come together in...such a way. Every single thing (olives, bread, fresh fish, vegetables, dessert) was perfect. An unforgettable dining experience that contributed to a very special evening.More

This was our first exposure to Portuguese cuisine in the city and we were so impressed. Our servers Ryan and Ricardo were flawless in their understanding of the menu options, wines and our preferences. They managed our table service very efficiently and helped us make...excellent culinary choices. The Octopus and the fish soup were so fresh and tasty that we were talking about them for several days after the meal. This is one restaurant that will be seeing more of us whenever we are in the city. Marco, the manager, runs a flawless operation here - perfect service and exquisite food.More

Based on reviews and the menu we decided to try this restaurant and we were extremely pleased. The service was exceptional on all fronts. I had almost forgotten how service could since pre-Covid. Our server helped us pick out an excellent Portuguese wine to complement...dinner. The pistachio crusted goat cheese and grilled calamari appetizers were excellent. The entrees of tiger shrimp and linguine, seafood risotto and mushroom risotto were all outstanding. The Madeira wine poached pear dessert was a great way to finish the meal too. Highly recommend!!More

I was there for my son birthday, I have delicious seafoods. The next day my son said let's visit again because he enjoy his meal.. Keep up the good work.

First I must say we stumbled upon this gem when exiting our hotel. They had the Summerlicious menu with choice of starter, main and dessert, a good and varied selection of Portuguese dishes. Our server, Ryan was outstanding, friendly made wine selections and overall was...the best server we have had in many years. He pushed the experience from 4 stars to 5!!! We now have a new fave place when visiting Toronto the food was delicious, grilled sardines and mushroom risotto yummyMore

Adega was near the Marriott at Eaton Center where we were staying. As seafood lovers, the menu caught our eyes. We learned from our excellent servers (Lisa and Marco) that Adega has been a top Toronto seafood (and Portuguese) restaurant for 28 years. We shared...the grilled Portuguese sardine appetizer, warm pistachio crusted goat cheese salad, and “signature” Cataplana Fresh Fish Stew main dish. With a couple glasses of wine and warm bread, this was more than enough for dinner. We thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience. A perfect dinner for our last night in Toronto.More

Excellent restaurant and its speciality is in seafood from all over the world. We had a plate of a variety of starters which was very good and all the main courses we tried (we were 7) was very good also. The service was excellent.

My friends and I (8 people) went to Adega on the first night of Toronto trip. My food (grilled squid) was excellent. I am very critical about not over-cook and not make it too tough to chew. But the chef cooked perfect, and the lemony...herb sauce made this dish very light and yummy. The appetizer portion ($24) was perfect to accompany wine for me. The reason i gave them 4 stars was not the food. They did not allow us to pay individually, so one member paid all and later we had to pay her back. Also the waitress was almost too friendly and participated into OUR conversation too much.More

Amazing food and even better service. Ryan was great at helping us select dishes. We had the grilled squid and grilled sardines to start, octopus and shrimp linguine for main and crème brûlée and poached pear to finish. Amazing!

This restaurant is a very nice and intimate spot. Perfect for a date. However, I went with a group of friends and overall the experience was OK. I ordered the short rib stuffed ravioli and there were maybe 4 raviolis on the plate for a...35$ dish…so the portion size was really small. My friends liked their dishes but it wasn’t anything to write home about. I’ve read good reviews of this place so I expected something special but everything about the food and the service was just…basic.More

We will be visiting this restaurant next time we are in Toronto. The food was excellent; we shared appetizers, including the grilled squid, which was wonderful. We had two gluten-free diners and they have a corn flour bread, which was such a treat. We had...the mushroom and seafood risottos, and shared samplers with each other - they were all wonderful! The service was outstanding as well. It was not particularly inexpensive, but this is easily explained by the quality of the food. Very highly recommended!More
