The name Canteen feels a bit regimental, especially since Oliver and Bonacini’s spot in the TIFF Bell Lightbox is bright, casual and airy, with almost prodigally high ceilings. It has a large and beautifully stocked takeout counter, but it’s become the go-to lunch place in a neighbourhood that’s thronged at noon with office workers desperate for a good option. Executive chef Jason Bangerter, brought in from O&B’s Auberge du Pommier, has created an all-day menu that includes braised meats, steak frites, daily pastas and pizza. Everything is fresh, fast and light—comforting without leaning too heavily on comfort food clichés. Salads are dynamite: tender chickpeas with marinated artichokes and mellow garlic, for example, or roasted beets with toasted hazelnuts and superb rice wine and hazelnut oil vinaigrette. Mains $12–$22.
