Don Alfonso 1890

What is Don Alfonso 1890? Perched on the 38th floor of the Westin Harbour Castle at 1 Harbour Square, this Michelin-starred restaurant is the North American flagship from Amalfi Coast master chefs Alfonso and Ernesto Iaccarino in partnership with Liberty Entertainment Group. Floor-to-ceiling windows wrap around the high-altitude dining room to deliver panoramic views of Lake Ontario and the city skyline, framed by modern white leather seating, striking Damien Hirst artwork, and an intimate cocktail lounge.

Don Alfonso 1890 Menu & What to Order The kitchen operates multi-course Signature and Contemporary vegetarian tasting menus alongside a structured à la carte option. Unmissable staples include the daring eel gelato served with sturgeon caviar and wild-rose tagliatelle, delicate Ontario wagyu carpaccio dotted with balsamic pearls, and the organic Manitoba bison tenderloin wrapped in Swiss chard with buffalo mozzarella and black truffle. Pairings draw from a massive 900-plus label cellar emphasizing rare Italian vintages, followed by an artful dessert service featuring miniature Neapolitan sfogliatelle.
