Vinny Toronto - Restaurant & Vinyl Bar
Vinny Toronto - Restaurant & Vinyl Bar is a vibrant spot on King Street West that bridges the gap between a sit-down dinner and a late-night cocktail lounge. It's an ideal destination for diners and nightlife seekers looking for an energetic, music-driven evening. The restaurant occupies the former Pink Sky space and has been transformed into a 1970s-inspired "zhuzhed-up rec room," complete with vintage speakers, stacks of vinyl records, Persian rugs, and extensive wood panelling.
The menu offers a contemporary take on comfort food from around the world, featuring dishes like hot honey cornbread, oysters, and a spicy vodka rigatoni. The cocktail program is a standout, with drinks named after iconic songs, such as "Express Yourself" and "Escape (The Piña Colada Song)." Non-alcoholic options, including mocktails and zero-proof beer, are also available. While the cocktails are praised, some diners note they are on the pricier side.
Vinny Toronto provides a seamless transition from dinner to late-night lounging, with daily dinner service starting at 5:00 PM and curated DJ sets spinning vintage vinyl. The venue also offers a private dining room for up to 16 seated guests or 20 for receptions, making it a versatile option for group events.
