Bistro 990

Bistro 990 is a restaurant in Toronto, Canada. The bistro serves Provençal style French cuisine in an informal atmosphere. It was opened in 1988 by chef Chris Klugman, who was responsible for several notable Toronto restaurants. The current chef is Christopher Hounsell. The restaurant is a popular Toronto eatery for actors and other celebrities. It is located on Bay Street and Wellesley, just opposite the elite Sutton Place Hotel, and near most of Toronto's other luxury hotels. This district is also the centre of the annual Toronto International Film Festival. The Bistro has thus become popular among visiting celebrities. In February 2011 it was announced that Bistro 990 will close and the land will be used for a 32-storey condominium.
