10 Toronto Restaurants Offering Thanksgiving Dinner 2026

Canadian Thanksgiving falls on Monday, October 12, 2026, but Toronto restaurants are starting the holiday table earlier. Confirmed menus begin as early as Friday, October 9, giving diners several days to book lunch, brunch, or dinner.

The current lineup runs from a $49 Italian prix fixe in North York to hotel dining rooms serving turkey with classic sides. Some kitchens keep their regular menus in play, while others switch to a holiday-only format for the weekend. Reservations are open for many of these meals. Prices, menu details, and review counts below were checked on September 21, 2026, and can change as tables fill.

Editor’s Note: Reservations fill up fast for holiday weekends. Verify direct booking links, deposit requirements, and live menu updates with each restaurant before securing your table.

Thanksgiving 2026 At A Glance

Old Mill Toronto

Old Mill Toronto is the buffet pick in this group. The Dining Room serves brunch and dinner on October 10 and 11, while Monday shifts to a lunch buffet running from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., with the final seating at 3 p.m.

The spread goes beyond turkey. The published menu adds chilled seafood, carving-station meats, vegetables, potatoes, pastries and a chocolate fountain. If your group wants broad choice at one table, this format covers more ground than a plated set menu.

Location: 21 Old Mill Road, Etobicoke
Thanksgiving dates: October 10–12, 2026
Price: Adults $95–$110 depending on date and room; children 4–11 are $45–$60; age 3 and younger free

Aera

Aera puts a compact three-course menu on the 38th floor of The Well. The turkey plate pairs roasted breast and confit leg with stuffing, cranberry gastrique, gravy, Brussels sprouts and whipped potatoes.

The holiday offer runs Saturday and Sunday only. Aera’s current contact page lists the restaurant as closed on Monday, October 12, so this one is aimed at diners celebrating before the statutory holiday.

Cuisine: Steakhouse and sushi
Location: 38th floor, 8 Spadina Avenue, The Well
Thanksgiving dates: October 10–11, 2026 from 5 p.m.
Price: $99 for three courses; holiday dishes are also sold à la carte, including the turkey main at $55

Happy hour or special: Feature wine bottles are $90 and $110. Regular Happy Hour is daily 4–6 p.m.; confirm promotion overlap with the holiday menu.

La Plume

La Plume gives Thanksgiving a Southern French angle without dropping the familiar turkey-and-gravy centrepiece. The prix fixe lets guests stop at two courses or add dessert for the three-course price.

Monday brunch is a useful option for diners who prefer an earlier meal. The brunch list also has a hot turkey sandwich and pumpkin waffle, so a group does not have to order the same format.

Cuisine: Southern French
Location: 453 Wellington Street West, The Well
Thanksgiving dates: October 11–12, 2026 for brunch and dinner
Price: $64 for two courses or $75 for three courses; holiday dishes are also available à la carte
Menu highlights: Burrata with pickled squash, potato-leek soup, rotisserie turkey dinner, pumpkin-ricotta ravioli, Basque pumpkin cheesecake and sweet potato-pecan pie.
Happy hour or special: Brunch adds a $26 hot turkey sandwich, $18 pumpkin waffle and $39 rotisserie turkey. Regular Happy Hour is Monday 4–6 p.m. and Tuesday–Sunday 2–6 p.m.; the restaurant notes that promotions can change during set-menu periods.

The Dorset

The Dorset leans into the British Sunday-roast side of Thanksgiving. Its turkey plate comes with Yorkshire pudding and mashed swede alongside the more familiar stuffing, gravy and cranberry sauce.

The set menu keeps several mains in play, including lamb and prime rib, plus a squash, wild rice and kidney bean loaf that can be prepared vegan. That helps mixed groups avoid building the meal around turkey alone.

Cuisine: British coastal cuisine
Location: 457 Wellington Street West, The Well
Thanksgiving dates: October 10–12, 2026
Price: $65 three-course set menu; $58 vegetarian set menu; dishes are also priced à la carte
Menu highlights: Proper Turkey Roast Dinner with roast potatoes, carrots, mashed swede, Savoy cabbage, stuffing, Yorkshire pudding, gravy and cranberry sauce. Prime rib, lamb and a vegan-available squash loaf are also listed.

The Joneses

The Joneses covers the full Friday-to-Monday stretch and starts dinner at 2 p.m. on Sunday and Monday. Its roast Canadian turkey comes with mashed potatoes, squash, corn, Brussels sprouts, chestnut-mushroom stuffing, apple-cranberry sauce and gravy.

This is the one O&B restaurant in the current Thanksgiving roundup that switches away from its regular menu for the holiday period. Check the posted house menu before booking if someone in your group has a firm non-holiday favourite in mind.

Cuisine: Comfort classics and retro American fare
Location: 33 Yonge Street, downtown Toronto
Thanksgiving dates: October 9–12, 2026
Price: $65 three-course house menu; individual holiday dishes carry à-la-carte prices

Biff’s Bistro

Biff’s keeps its Thanksgiving menu concise: a choice of two starters, a turkey main and a pumpkin Basque cheesecake finish. Dinner service is the only meal period listed for the holiday offer.

The Front Street location can work well for guests arriving by TTC or GO Transit. The prix fixe runs through Monday, so it also covers diners who want the meal on Thanksgiving Day itself.

Cuisine: French bistro
Location: 2 Front Street East, near Union Station
Thanksgiving dates: October 9–12, 2026 during dinner service
Price: $65 three-course prix fixe
Menu highlights: Butternut squash soup or pear salad, roast turkey with roasted potatoes and brioche stuffing, and pumpkin Basque cheesecake with salted caramel and toasted pecans.

REIGN

REIGN is useful for a table that wants Thanksgiving food without committing to a fixed three-course menu. The Fairmont Royal York restaurant sells its holiday dishes one by one and keeps the regular menu available at the same time.

The $51 Manor House Turkey Dinner is the main holiday plate, with truffle mashed potatoes and cranberry chutney alongside the turkey, stuffing, Brussels sprouts and gravy. The features run Saturday through Monday.

Location: Fairmont Royal York, 100 Front Street West

Alder

Alder serves its holiday menu family-style, which suits pairs and small groups who prefer shared plates. The menu starts with two salads, moves into turkey with confit leg and sourdough stuffing, then closes with pumpkin pie and smoked caramel.

The restaurant draws from Mediterranean cooking traditions, but the Thanksgiving menu stays close to the holiday format. Service is listed for Sunday and Monday, so both pre-holiday and Monday reservations are possible.

Cuisine: Mediterranean-influenced, wood-fired cooking
Location: Ace Hotel Toronto, 51 Camden Street
Thanksgiving dates: October 11–12, 2026
Price: $80 per person for a three-course family-style menu designed to share between two
