Summerlicious 2015: America Restaurant - Trump Tower

325 Bay Street - Toronto ON
(31st Floor Trump International Hotel & Tower)

"Experience America, the grand indulgence – with commanding views of Toronto's glittering skyline after dark, its lavish service, exquisite cocktails and decadent food"


We had been wanting to make a visit to America, and we were both delighted to see its name on the list of restaurants participating in Summerlicious this season!

The restaurant is stunningly gorgeous. This was our first time here and we sat on the top floor which was nice and was quieter, and felt more intimate. There was a perfect view and great lighting in the late afternoon/early evening of the city. 

America seems to be featured during Summerlicious/Winterlicious menus every year, so it's definitely a place worth trying. Plus, it's worth it for the $28 lunch/$45 dinner.


Melissa, being a huge matcha fan, had their matcha chicken and waffles as her main course.


While I had the:

Cedar-Grilled Speckled Trout- cauliflower, spiced chickpeas, brown butter
Key Lime Pie - sourdough crumb, meringue, tequila

It was my first time having trout, and well...it may be my last. I enjoyed it but not to the point where I would order it again. Overall experience was alright, the food was decadent but the service was rather slow and I had a hard time hearing Melissa from the other side of the table.
