PATIO is bringing food from, not just one or two restaurants, but from over ten different locations, right to your table. This unique experience opened just last month and their summertime menu features dishes from a slew of local restaurants.
Choose from a variety of local spots with varying cuisines––if you're in the mood for Italian food, you can choose from Boccone Deli and Pizza Bar, Capocaccia Trattoria or the beloved Cucina Buca. For Indian eats, enjoy Ambiyan on Yonge, or Mr. Thai for a Pan Asian spread. On the other hand, some of the more classic options include Brownes Bistro and Mary Be Kitchen.
Once you are seated, the QR code on your table takes you to the list of foods that are being served by each restaurant. After a short 30 to 40 minute wait, a PATIO server will deliver your dishes. They also have an on-site bar for all of your favourite alcoholic or non-alcoholic beverages.
Patio was created by Yonge + St. Clair BIA which is a non-profit organization that promotes the economic growth of local businesses. With that being said, all of the revenue from each menu item goes to the respective restaurant.
In terms of the gratuity, these amounts are split between on-site staff members, food runners and the respective local restaurants.
Patio is located at 1503 Yonge Street and is open Thursdays to Saturdays from noon to 10 p.m. Walk-ins are welcome, but reservations are recommended. You can reserve your table on their website.
