When Southern Ontario is mentioned, first thoughts seem always to centre on the city of Toronto, Canada’s largest metropolis. The city of Toronto alone houses over 2 million people, with its surrounding cities, the GTA [Greater Toronto Area] the population climbs to 5.5 million. It is a hot-bed for big business and industry and it’s a continually growing centre for culture and diversity from all areas of the globe. Wow! It's not hard to see why so many people make this their home, place of work, as well as a hub for shopping and of course dining.

Although Toronto is the desired location for most, sometimes the busy lifestyle and surroundings can become all too hectic and a short escape is needed. Luckily, on the door step of Toronto is an area that can provide a place of tranquillity, filled with serene landscapes. About a twenty minute drive north of Brampton on Hwy 10, nestled in the County of Dufferin; neighbour to such beautiful landmarks as Hockley Valley, the Forks of the Credit, the Bruce Trail and Mono Cliffs Provincial Park [just to name a few] is a growing town by the name of Orangeville.

Orangeville is expanding, yet there is always a true sense of community both rural and urban and it seems as the town grows the people also grow closer, being brought together by a number of community events and a focus on trying to maintain a strong base of family run businesses.

One of those businesses, located in the heart of downtown Orangeville, is One99 Restaurant. Since opening its doors in September of 2002, owners Rodney Hough and Roger Genoe have devoted themselves to providing the ultimate in dining experience. This is achieved through a combined passion for this art... and it shows, one step inside will give you an overwhelming sense of elegance, romanticism and sophistication that only a five star restaurant can display. If ever the words “fine dining “ were used, One99 endeavours to be an example, making you believe you truly are being invited to indulge in a meal comprised of carefully and lovingly prepared dishes and hand- picked wines to suit any combination of flavours.

The avant -garde decor and signature colours of cranberry and gold, lining the walls and stretching up to the immensely high ceilings, the large comfortable booths and tables, invite you in, offering a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. A unique walk through the open concept kitchen and up a set of stairs brings you to the second floor dining room, equally inviting and again lined with large comfortable booths. Those wanting a more intimate setting may enjoy the private wine room with a glass wall over-looking the downstairs dining room.

But it doesn't end there, as a guest of “One99 Restaurant” you are more than welcome to see the magic at work. Lingering in the one of a kind, fully open concept kitchen, allows guests to not only mingle with the chefs [maybe picking up a few trade secrets along the way], but also to see first -hand the pulse of the restaurant, and acquire a sense for the organization and precision it takes to produce a first- class dining experience.


The restaurant’s buying practices include supporting coastal fishermen, regional and local farmers and suppliers who practice responsible stewardship of the land, rivers and oceans. One 99 uses a combination of fresh, local, seasonal and organic ingredients that help promote the abundant fare available in Dufferin County and beyond.

One99 expertise extends to full service catering and understands the desire for simplicity in organizing events, without hindering excellence along the way. One99 will cater private parties in your home, intimate weddings, corporate functions and special occasions. Larger more formal weddings may be held at Tralee Wedding Facility, a beautiful 145 acre country estate, located in Caledon, just east of Mono Mills.

Welcome to One99 Restaurant! Relax, Enjoy and Indulge.
