My Memo
Meet the owner
From the quaint menu to quirky marketing, everything at Le Papillon on Front is done in house, and all staff lend a hand.
General manager Sean Gowland says the homemade rule goes a long way to not only keeping costs down, but also towards creating a positive, welcoming and inclusive environment for every walk of life. “We like to be able to cater to a lot of vibes,” says Sean. “We like to tip on the edge of trendy but there’s no 'I’m not hip enough to go there' or 'I’m too hip to go there.'”
Dishes like hearty French onion soup and tourtière – a traditional Québecois meat pie of seasoned veal, beef and pork with house chutney, potatoes and market vegetables – are comparable to what you’d be served at Grandma’s. The restaurant is stylishly impressive, yet stills feels homey, comfortable and relaxed.
Le Papillon on Front's eclectic team includes a few Francophone servers who help to give the restaurant its French-Canadian authenticity and also come in handy when Toronto classrooms come to learn the language and experience the cuisine. “It’s different being an independent restaurant,” says Sean. “We really do our best to make sure our customers leave happy.”

I can not beleive that no one else has written a review for the Le Papillion. It is my top choice for a restaurant if you want a romantic date atmosphere or a nice place to take your parents when the come to town. The serive is always great, the food is consistently great. The prices are quite reasonable. The crepes are always fresh and delicious, the salmon good, great French Onion soup. I also love the tarte au sucre (maple suger pie) for dessert- its the only place in Toronto that I know of that serves tarte au sucre. Great quebecois fare!
I had a recent Lunch with 3 other adult family members. Le Papillon's were extremely accommodating when my daughters, Acceptance to the Bar Ceremony finished earlier than expected, and we were readily issued early arrival seating. The food was fantastic (we all had different Crepe's) and the service was superb. I highly recommend Le Papillon to anyone desiring the utmost in ambiance, service and quality. Cheers! WES

Sandra and Gang. I can't thank-you enough for the most amazing time. The complimentary cocktails were totally unexpected and so appreciated. The food was fantastic. I am so sorry that we stayed for so long but the dining experience was so wonderful that we lost track of time. I noticed that every patron around us in the restaurant were enjoying the experience as much as we did. We also noticed familiar employees (faces) from our last visit (2016). When you have long term employees and absolutely fantastic food especially the onion soup (Can't be beat...been checking for 40 years) this says much about the owners and management. You have the perfect "recipe" that has given you the success that you deserve and have earned since you opened in the 70's. See you in August when I come home to Toronto again . My sincere thanks and will give you a glowing review on tripadvisor.

The food was amazing, it was fresh and hot. Everyone enjoyed their meals, also your dessert with the sponge cake and caramel was absolutely amazing. My grandmother had a piece of mine and ordered a whole one for herself. She is not a dessert person and she loved it. Amazing experience, keep up the great work

Overall a pleasant spot, and the price is right for the selections. The escargots are consistently good, not chewy, and a great excuse for garlic butter. The bread this time wasn't refrigerator cold, so that was a welcome improvement over last time (bread should never be refrigerated). The crab benedict was a little disappointing. There was a good amount of crab, but the eggs were overcooked (hard yolks), the hollandaise sauce not lemony enough (they rarely are though), and the english muffins were too tough to cut almost. But we enjoyed ourselves.

The ONLY reason the food gets a 4 star and not 5 is the fact that the steaks were delicious, but they were grilled. I prefer pan seared. Everything else was perfect. Our party of three thoroughly enjoyed our meals and can't wait to find an excuse to go back!
