Invitation-only · Toronto
A Society Night—built like theatre.
Black Apron Society is an invitation-only membership club — not a restaurant and not a one-off dinner. Members gather once every quarter for produced Society Nights, with members-only mixers in between. Each chapter is anchored by a headline chef, master mixology, curated sound, and a live moment that transforms the room. Capped at ~50 members. Rare by design.
Venues and menus are revealed inside the Members Lounge to protect the room. Membership is ongoing—this is not a one-time reservation.
2026 Society Nights
Quarterly chapters. Mixers in between.
Black Apron Society is a membership — not a one-time dinner reservation. Your membership is billed quarterly and includes one produced Society Night each quarter, plus members-only mixers between events. Opening night is led by Chef Jae Anthony.

The Culinary Collective
Curated headliners. Not hired hands.
We curate chefs the way festivals curate artists: by pedigree, precision, and presence. Full menus are revealed to members.
The Production
MC · Mixology · Soundscape · Live Chapter
High-end nights aren’t “run.” They’re conducted. Every element is chosen to feel effortless—timed, paced, and controlled. Your dinner is not “staffed”—it’s produced.
Our standard
White-glove energy without the noise. Precision you feel—never hear.
- Headliner chef tasting design—seasonal, intentional, and executed on cue
- Signature cocktail welcome + pairing integrity from a master mixologist
- Service choreography: the floor team moves with the room—quiet, clean, exact
- Timing treated like theatre—no rushed courses, no dead space
- Temperature, plating, and pacing held to competition-level discipline
- Discretion in the room—privacy first, content second
Our vibe
Glam, art, and rhythm—curated energy with a velvet-rope feel.
- Curated guest list—high-standard professionals, real presence
- MC-led pacing—warm, confident, never corny
- The Pulse: DJ soundscapes built for conversation and lift
- Artful details: candlelight, composition, and cinematic atmosphere
- A live chapter that shifts the room—from dinner to memory
- Quarterly anchors + mixers between events to deepen the circle
- More private club than restaurant—by design
Why become a member
Access that repeats. A room that remembers you.
A one-time dinner is a transaction. Membership is a relationship. Your Society Nights come quarterly—mixers keep the circle alive in between. The cap stays tight so the room stays rare.
Quarterly Society Nights
One chef-led headline night each quarter—produced with precision, privacy, and rhythm.
Welcome Cocktail
A signature welcome pour to open the night and set the tone before the first course lands.
Direct Access to Chef
Intimate touchpoints: chef context, story behind the menu, and moments that feel personal.
Members-Only Mixers
Occasional mixers between Society Nights—built for real connection, not networking theatre.
Occasional Partner Perks
Invites and perks from partners aligned with the Society standard—rare, tasteful, and member-first.
Members Lounge + Priority
Private reveals, chef announcements, early access windows, and updates between events.
