NBA’s Got One Restaurant and it’s in Toronto

-

There is only one restaurant partnering with the NBA and it has found its home on Toronto’s waterfront.

NBA Courtside is the official foodie hot spot that houses authentic NBA history and culture through artwork, real game memorabilia and official players’ athletic wear within its dining areas.

Even the tables are sections from the floorboards of NBA arenas, specifically from 2011, 2021, and 2022 NBA All-Star games.

AND THE FOOD?

Captained by Chef Erica Karbelnik, winner of Top Chef Canada Season 9, the menu features world-inspired cuisine among popular favourites as well as her own signature dishes. You’ll find her Spiced Cauliflower Tacos among stone baked pizzas, burgers and curries. Don’t forget the side of parmesan fries!

With 9 HD TVs, large bar and ideal viewing spots from every table, this is where you want to be for the games.

WHY’D THEY PICK TORONTO?

With the Raptors playing just 10-minutes away, it’s the ideal pre and post game hot spot. And since basketball was invented by Canadian James Naismith in 1861, the NBA and restauranteurs Urban Dining Group couldn’t think of a better place to announce the very first NBA inspired restaurant.

This first of its kind restaurant has been open since Spring 2023.
