The Ace

The Ace is a charming neighborhood gastropub located at 231A Roncesvalles Avenue in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Originally operating as a family-run Chinese restaurant dating back well over half a century, the space was beautifully restored and reopened in 2011, carefully preserving its vintage 1950s diner aesthetic. The kitchen specializes in elevated, home-style comfort food classics and French-inspired plates driven by locally sourced, seasonal ingredients. Its tightly focused and regularly changing menu features standout dishes such as steak frites, duck confit, fresh PEI mussels, and an acclaimed house burger served on freshly baked brioche buns, alongside a popular weekend brunch menu. Celebrated for its warm hospitality, nostalgia-inducing atmosphere, and exceptional culinary value, The Ace has earned prominent recognition in the city's dining scene, proudly holding a Michelin Guide Bib Gourmand distinction.
