From Soufi's to Aloette, these are the hot restaurants within Uber range of TIFF's Bell Lightbox.

• Aloette

  This bistro has opened two floors below the popular Alo for drop-in dining. Justin Trudeau and his wife, Sophie, already have eaten in the no-reservations diner, where seared scallops ($30), lamb sirloin ($30) and veal sweetbreads ($20) are among the favorites.

• BlueBlood Steakhouse

  Chef Meagan Andrews has taken over a wing of Casa Loma, a 98-room Gothic mansion, and offers red meat for every appetite. Try an 8-ounce barrel-cut filet from Wheeler County, Nebraska ($65), or go big with a 40-ounce Alberta porterhouse ($200).

• Kiin

  Take a stroll round the corner from TIFF Central to where chef and co-owner Nuit Regular opened Kiin on Adelaide Street to showcase Royal Thai cuisine. Her favorites are chor lada (dumplings; $12) and mieng pla, sea salt-crusted whole sea bream ($36).
• Soufi's

  Because it's Trudeau's Canada, try Soufi's, the city's first Syrian restaurant run by a newly immigrated family. Their specialty: manaeesh ($6), oven flatbreads topped with meat and vegetarian options.
