Summerlicious 2022 is right around the corner.

Running from August 12 to August 28, the annual food event brings the best food in the city to excited diners and for the first time, offers six categories in pricing for lunch and dinner menus. Travel the world with Summerlicious - it's time to discover Toronto's multicultural and diverse food scene.

Summerlicious is your chance to explore the city's exceptional offerings, with three-course, fixed-priced lunches and dinners from over 200 participating restaurants in Toronto. For 2022, more than 40 per cent of participating restaurants are Summerlicious newcomers.

You can find participating spots in east, west and north Toronto – not just downtown - so make sure to try something new this season.
