Toronto has more great restaurants than any of us have time to book, and more dating apps than anyone has patience for. Lado swaps the endless chat for a table: a short, playful quiz, a balanced group of six (three women, three men) and a host who makes the first ten minutes easy.

We’re planning our first Toronto tables around neighbourhoods that are easy to reach after work (King West, the Financial District, Queen’s Park and the Distillery District), so you can come straight from the office or make a night of it.

Toronto FAQ

Singles events in Toronto, answered.

hello@ladosocial.com

Where do Toronto dinners happen?

At independent, well-reviewed restaurants downtown, chosen for good food and rooms where you can actually hear each other. The exact venue is revealed the morning of your dinner. Every restaurant on our events page is a Lado partner.

Is this speed dating?

No. There’s no timer, no rotating chairs and no name tags. It’s a relaxed dinner with five people we think you’ll click with, followed by a private, mutual-only reveal the next day.

Who comes to Lado dinners in Toronto?

Single professionals, roughly 28–40, who would rather meet in person. Every member applies and is reviewed, and each dinner is balanced three women and three men.

How much does it cost?

Joining the waitlist is free. A dinner seat is $49 CAD (plus HST) and covers matching, the reservation and your host; you order and pay for your own meal at the restaurant. Experiences like clay nights are priced individually, and memberships are $79/month for two dinners.
