Meet the owner

Sassafraz has been nestled in the heart of Yorkville since opening in 1997, but it’s a rare landmark in the neighbourhood: there’s a quietly unassuming air about this restaurant where everybody’s welcome, whether you’re dressed in an Italian three-piece suit or stopping by for lunch after a gym session. It’s the kind of place where the chef specializes in gazpacho and Cornish hen equally, offering diners an unparalleled French-Canadian cuisine experience in Toronto.

“For us, it’s all about accessibility,” says Zoran Kocovski, owner of Sassafraz, “and we want to make sure that we’re inclusive of any Torontonian. So whether you’re coming in as a celebrity during TIFF or whether you’re visiting on a particular weekend to celebrate a special occasion, we want to make it fully accessible to you.”

A huge change

Before the fire, Sassafraz used to just be a place to be seen, with bad food, bad service, but still all the hype. Its taken a complete turn for the better. I have never seen such dedicated staff who execute everything perfectly. Everything was set up in a perfect traditional fine dining manner which made the atmosphere even better! (even though it was amazing at night: candles, dim lights, music, the perfect mood) The food was absolutely amazing, taste and presentation both, Chef Bradly M, looks like a huge change for the company. Definitely recommend it to everyone!

Incredible! We all discussed everything overall and no one could find a fault. Service was terrific, the food was bang on, flavourful and desert was amazing. All of us can't wait to go back! Try the "Banana's 3 ways".

Oh was so great. beautiful interior and wonderful service, excellent food. No wonder it is a favourite spot for celebrities. Even brought my 3 year old son and that was no problem, the servers kept coming over to talk to him, was really nice.

I have heard a lot about place, but I cannot tell you what the hype is all about. The food was horrible. The vegetarian pasta was like something I could have thrown together. The portions were small and overall tasteless. Basically the place is all talk and no show. I would never go there again.
