Let’s face it, Toronto has a rapidly growing restaurant industry, and it’s hard to keep up, we know. Sigh. Particularly for our bank accounts. Luckily, the Toronto restaurants gods –or in this case the City of Toronto– put together the amazing #LiciousTO program.

If you don’t know already, Winterlicious and Summerlicious provide a lower cost set menu at a broad lineup of leading restaurants across the city  — over 200 restaurants to be exact. Prices range from about $23-53 for lunch and dinner.

To help you navigate the length list, we’ve put together this list, alphabetical order, of our editorial team’s 50 favourite participating restaurants. Truthfully, they’re all great, so this wasn’t easy. But these are definitely the must-haves, so if you’re going to go, make sure they’re on our list first. Don’t wait, it’s only here until February 7th.
