Despite the ongoing shutdowns and anti-social life we're currently living, we as Torontonians are fortunate to be blessed with our pick of delicious and unique takeout meals to enjoy from the comfort of our homes. Clearly, restaurants that were determined to open up in 2020 and 2021 have proven to be highly adaptable, as most have had to do so under the limitations of takeout-only. But that hasn't stopped them, so we are still able to relish in the exciting new food destinations that have opened their (to-go) doors as of late, offering plant-based creations, spicy hot chicken, juicy burgers, homemade pasta and more. Read our full list below of the top new takeout spots to try this month so you can savour a wonderful meal while supporting our city's restaurant industry and the people in it who are working hard to keep us well-fed!
