About this restaurant

Romantic
Innovative
Good for groups

Pray Tell is an exclusive presentation rich event space, snack + cocktail bar serving hypermodern and classic drinks, along with a wide selection of local or imported wines and brews. Rooted in scientific techniques and art, our snack menu by Preserve Indulgence, is an equal billing of umami flavours. Keeping the vibes both whimsical and elegant, much like the people eating here. From an idea to edible art and "instagrammable" drinks, we have an unorthodox attitude in keeping both menus playful and considered. Take in a minimal, modern approach to food. Feel free to hang out in our indoor garden or secret patio. Either way, come enjoy the vibe, let us elevate your palette---one bite at a time. Oh yes, we also have brunch on the weekends!

Dinner for 2. A sharing oriented menu. Great combination of vegan, vegetarian and flexitarian options. Cabbage Patch was a particular fave. Yummy desserts. Definitely make a reso, as it is on the smaller side for space.

I had a fantastic time with a group of friends at Pray Tell on a Saturday night. Reservations were easy and they had a nice corner booth for us. We ordered a few different plates and drinks; the food was all presented beautifully and had a good quantity of food for tapas-style dishes. The flavours were unique and delicious and it was a great culinary experience overall. The mocktails we ordered were also delicious and very fresh. The service was awesome; I can't recall our servers name but she was very sweet and went out of her way with taking some photos and chatting us up. It was a DJ night, so around 10-11 a DJ came in and was playing awesome throwbacks. It was at a good volume as well, so you can still carry a conversation. It was my first time at Pray Tell and I would definitely be back to try the rest of the menu!

My group ordered many different food items and almost every single one of them was too salty. The Carpaccio in particular was so salty that it was difficult to eat. Quite surprising and disappointing

Such a fantastic experience! Service was phenomenal, food was delicious, and cocktails were also awesome. Will definitely be back 😊 Service was great in regards to their consideration to be communicative with us, prompt and informative with the food, and accommodating of allergies. It was also reasonably priced ❤️
