Scheduled to open in September 2024, LANO is set to be a unique café and wine bar located in the lobby of The Ritz-Carlton, Toronto. This establishment aims to provide a seamless morning-to-night dining experience for guests. The concept embodied the charm of Northern Italy while enhancing the hotel’s existing culinary offerings.
LANO café and wine bar is designed to evoke the ambiance of bustling cafés found in Milan and Turin. The setting will feature a refined aesthetic, created by CHAPI CHAPO DESIGN, integrating elements that reflect both the local culture of Toronto and the elegance of European design. This creates an inviting atmosphere suitable for both quick visits and leisurely dining.
The menu at LANO is curated to evolve throughout the day — from quick grab-and-go breakfast options and a range of salads and antipasti for lunch to an extensive wine list featuring 30 Italian wines alongside traditional cocktails during the evening.
