Price Description

This winsome dining spot features elegant music, rotating local art and an intimate space bathed in warm hues. Diners come from all over the GTA to indulge in such hearty salads as melon-, strawberry- and cashew-sprinkled barbecue chicken salad, and Peartree’s summer signature dish, a Cajun jump fry of black tiger shrimp, scallop and sweet pepper. Seafood Normandy brings shrimp and scallops in creamy cider sauce; classic peppercorn steak sees a New York sirloin topped with mushrooms and peppercorn sauce. An extensive and eclectic wine menu features bottles from around the world. A soothing back patio decorated with painted sunflowers proves popular in summer. Mains $7.95–$15.95.
