Restaurant 20 Victoria

Restaurant 20 Victoria is a restaurant in Downtown Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

Restaurant 20 Victoria was opened in 2021 by Chris White, following the expiry of the lease of his Toronto restaurant Brothers Food & Wine. Starting operations during the COVID-19 Pandemic, the restaurant initially offered only sidewalk seating due to indoor dining restrictions in place in Ontario. The kitchen is led by Chef Julie Hyde, who is also formerly of Brothers Food & Wine.

The restaurant is named after the street address it operates from, 20 Victoria Street. It offers a tasting menu in its dining room, as well as an a la carte menu offered from its bar seating that faces the open kitchen.

Recognition

The restaurant received a Michelin star in Toronto's 2023 edition of the Michelin Guide, recognizing its "pristine seafood and refined sauce work." It is the only Michelin-starred establishment in Toronto headed exclusively by a female chef. 20 Victoria retained its star in the 2024 guide.

20 Victoria was also recognized with the 'Best Service' award at the 2023 Toronto Michelin award ceremony.

The restaurant was ranked #4 in Canada's 100 Best Restaurants list in 2024. It also topped Air Canada's annual list of best new restaurants in Canada in 2022.
