COMPTON AVE

COMPTON AVE is one of the best bar restaurants in Toronto for date night, especially if you want a strong option in Dundas West.

Frankie Solarik built his reputation at BarChef making cocktails that felt like architecture — layered, technical, uncompromising — and Compton Ave is where that sensibility finally gets a full room to inhabit.
