Ceci Bar

Ceci Bar, designed by Solid Design Creative, is a South American-inspired restaurant located in the heart of downtown Toronto. Ceci Bar promises an unforgettable dining experience that is inspired by the rich, vibrant culture and landscape of South America with a strong commitment to sustainability and authentic craftsmanship.

Every element of the restaurant has been meticulously designed to create an immersive environment that transports guests to the enchanting regions of Colombia and Peru. From the moment patrons step inside, they will be surrounded by rich colours, tapestry, textures, and art, making Ceci Bar more than just a place to eat – it’s an experience.

One of the standout features of Ceci Bar is its focus on showcasing authentic craftsmanship from local South American communities. The restaurant proudly features artwork and decor sourced directly from Colombian and Peruvian artisans, ensuring every piece tells a story and supports local craftsmanship. In the dining room, custom textiles handmade in Peru drape the ceiling. These textiles, crafted with care and precision, add warmth and authenticity to the space.

A remarkable custom chandelier spreads over the main bar area, made from recycled plastic bottles with handmade shades produced by local Colombian artisans. This unique piece of functional art is a testament to Ceci Bar’s commitment to sustainability and creative reuse. The centerpiece behind the bar is a breathtaking custom mosaic art installation that re-purposes tile off-cuts, stone scraps, and vintage ceramics, transforming waste into a captivating work of art. This installation not only highlights the restaurant’s eco-friendly ethos but also serves as a conversation starter for guests. Large hand-painted murals surround the main space, depicting vibrant florals native to South America. This stunning artwork not only adds a burst of colour into the space but also pays homage to the region’s natural beauty.
