Love Local, Dine Local: Summerlicious 2025 Brings Toronto’s Culinary Scene to the Table

More than 220 Toronto restaurants will offer prix fixe menus from July 4 to 20, inviting diners to savour the city’s diverse culinary scene.

Toronto, Ontario – Toronto’s beloved culinary festival, Summerlicious, is back for another season of flavour, diversity, and local pride. From July 4 to July 20, more than 220 restaurants across the city will participate in the 2025 edition, offering special three-course prix fixe lunch and dinner menus to encourage residents and visitors alike to dine out and support local.

Reservations officially opened today, and diners are encouraged to book directly with participating restaurants. With lunch menus ranging from $20 to $55 and dinner menus priced between $25 and $75, this year’s program caters to every taste and budget.

The 2025 lineup includes new additions such as 1Kitchen, Abrielle, Casa Madera, AYLA, The Porch Light, and Patois, among others, joining long-time favourites in showcasing Toronto’s world-class culinary talent. Full menus and reservation details are now available at toronto.ca/summerlicious.

Summerlicious continues to be part of the City’s Love Local campaign, a key pillar of the Mayor’s Economic Action Plan responding to U.S. tariffs. The campaign focuses on boosting local economic activity and community resilience through initiatives that highlight homegrown businesses.

Originally launched in 2003 to support the restaurant industry during seasonal lulls, the Winterlicious and Summerlicious programs have served over eight million meals and generated more than $353 million in economic activity for Toronto’s dining sector.

This year’s festival is presented in partnership with the Hong Kong Tourism Board and supported by media partners Toronto Star, CP24, Newstalk 1010, and NOW Toronto.
