About Gary’s

Seasonal Cooking Rooted In European Cuisine: We are a neighbourhood restaurant in the heart of South Granville with an open kitchen, bar seating and a cozy dining room. Small, shareable dishes define the menu here with seasonality having a huge influence. We keep our wine-list short, sharp and dynamic with an ever-evolving selection of wines that champion producers who follow a low-intervention approach to farming & winemaking.

“The jumping off point for Gary’s, the first restaurant from industry vets Bailey Hayward and Mathew Bishop, was a friends-only supper club. Now menu-carrying members, we lean back in our chairs and spring for the crudo, gem salad, hen-of-the-woods and rabbit. All warrant membership, but the roasted leg, in a consommé with petit garlic sausages and early-summer vegetables, is our runaway favourite. Broad ribbons of lightly-fermented sauerkraut are languid in a transparent broth, with a clarity that belies its depth of flavour.” — Tara O’Brady, Air Canada
