“Visited this place for lunch with a group. The service overall was pretty good. In the appetizers lasooni gobi was excellent. Samosa chaat was also good. Ordered butter chicken but found to be a little bit more on the sweeter side. Ras malai to finish of was also nice.Overall the food was really good. HalalVegetarian options: Since it is Indian restaurant there are plenty of Veg options in appetizers, main course.“

“Most beautiful view of toronto on the water you will get… book your reservation for an hour before the sunset of that day to get the full experience.Food is of course what you may expect with their rating … for the second best in Italy, I would have to disagree and am biased as I got to experience farm to table in the northern mountains in Abruzzo, Italy… not even comparable… sorry guys!! But they did offer a pasta that is dried from the sea breeze with the natural salt from the water / wind making a profound difference in the texture and flavour. Definitely worth the experience overall and the a la carte menu has great options for a great price.Great wine and caviar menus.Jeff the manager is the best!!!!Make sure you get a photo in the washroom with the window of the city as your backdrop ?“

“Great service and the food was well done. I thoroughly enjoyed my Branzino but was a little disappointed with the field greens. I got a tiny bowl with approximately 4 -6 leafy greens and some sliced radish for $18.Very cute date night spot that changes their menu on the regular.“

“the east end wins again, the most delightful, beautiful restaurant with delicious, complex flavours all accessible as a neighbourhood, non-pretentious joint. this is a rotating menu restaurant - so reviews you read here are likely not related to what you’ll eat — which IMO, is fantastic. we sat at the bar - a place we highly encourage guests to sit at - we ordered 7 dishes (2 more than suggested) and were blown away. the service was top notch - we always appreciate skilled staff, and the atmosphere + music were a solid 10. fantastic date spot, being your parents to eat spot, friends with benefits spot + my best friend is getting married so we are celebrating spot.“

“I enjoyed a lovely Sunday night dinner with my husband and baby. Food, service and atmosphere were great! Def would love more places like in the Neigbourhood. We shared several dishes, the French salad, feta pie, jackfruit Currie, a snapper dish and the chocolate mouse. All delicious and would order it all again, except we want to explore the rest of the menu too.“

“One standout dish is the butter chicken, a creamy and indulgent delight that perfectly encapsulates the essence of North Indian cuisine. Paired with fluffy naan bread or aromatic basmati rice, it’s a culinary journey worth savoring. Vegetarians will also find plenty to love, with options like paneer tikka and vegetable biryani showcasing the bounty of India’s vibrant vegetarian cuisine.Vivek's service is good.“

“I've been longing to try Grey Gardens and I'm happy I finally did! While the menu is small, it's jam packed with a variety of unique dishes and flavours. The mushroom dish, brimming with umami, is probably the best I've ever had. The Arctic char crudo was flavorful and well balanced. And the lamb pasta was good and unique. Didn't love the pesto ravioli - a bit too earthy for my liking.“

“Nestled in the heart of Yorkville, 156 Cumberland is a must try. The food was delicious and I had a great server recommending what to get, and if it was enough for the table. I could not think of a dish I didn’t like! Highly recommend the tartar, potato pancake and banana milk tiramisu.The atmosphere is also perfect for date nights, casual and special occasions. Will definitely comeback.“

“What an amazing experience. The wine selection is amazing, something for every pallet with a great explanation of the nodes, region and pairing. The food was absolutely delicious. We had the oysters, croquettes, chorizo sausage and peppers, brussel sprouts and dill aioli was out of this world, fennel salad and finished with the delicious apple pie with cheddar crumble. An amazing experience, each bite better than the last. Definitely looking forward to my next visit!!“

“The service was over the top! The food, based on the menu may give the impression of a large portion of food however, the portions are tapas style and you will not feel stuffed like you do at other places. The food is excellent and Michelin Star! My hat's off to the Chef! The price is what you would pay for a Michelin Star restaurant. It reminded me of Le Bernardin in Manhattan!“

“I would recommend this modern Indian spot to all my friends. The service was just excellent!! The three-course meal and smoked drinks were worth the price. Our plates were completely empty by the end. Their must try items are the avacado chaat dip and chips, dal makhni bowl and spiced raw mango cocktail.“

“If I could give service 10 stars I would. A friend and I went for dinner and our server was so sweet and attentive. Just one example of the excellent service we received: while we were sitting in the back covered patio, she noticed I put on a sweater. She immediately turned on the heaters and came over to let us know, in case I was feeling cold. It’s small moments like that, that really make you feel taken care of. My only regret is not leaving a bigger tip. I’ll definitely have to return and offer more next time.As for the atmosphere, the place was full and lively but didn’t feel overly crowded or loud. The space itself I would describe it as unpretentious but still felt refined.Finally, the food. We ended up getting a main AND an app of the beef tartare since it was so delicious, as well as the trout which was cooked beautifully. To be honest pretty much everything on the menu called out to us. We also got a salted chocolate mousse that we shared and it was a perfect way to end our meal. They also had a great offering of wines and drinks.Overall: fabulous staff, great food, lovely atmosphere.“

“Had one of the best meals of my life here- and I've been to multiple Michelin-starred restaurants- and I would highly recommend! We did the high end wine pairings and it was worth it. The courses were all hits with no misses and the service was phenomenal- everyone really goes ut of their way to be attentive. Couldn't recommend this place more!“

“BEST ITALIAN FOOD IN TORONTO HANDS DOWN! Don’t even bother going anywhere else!! We stumbled upon this place while trying to find somewhere to eat, and we were shocked at how authentic and fresh the food was. They make their own pasta in house and it is to die for!!! We will definitely be back.“

“Came on a Wednesday night as a walk in (was not allowed to make reservations on the phone between 6-7pm for some reason, and as a result we were told we had to return the table after just under 2 hours). Beautiful little spot, acoustics were great and a little loud (but not in a terrible Toronto way). Decor was very cosy and comfortable and the atmosphere was warm. Food was presented picture perfect, tasted great, skills of the culinary team was very creative and slightly avant garde. Cocktails were done very well. However when we asked for new plates and cutlery we were given new roll ups which just cluttered the small table, could have just received the basic necessities as requested.“

“We recently made my Mom’s 100th birthday lunch here. We had approximately 60 adults and 4 small children. I cannot rave enough about how accommodating the entire staff were from owner, to servers, to chefs…The menu they created was wonderful with the most delicious choices and generous portions. I would strongly recommend this restaurant for entertainments ( showers, engagements, small events .. etc) but also for lunch or dinner. They have a wonderful patio as well. I can’t wait to go back and I have the dishes I personally didn’t order. They were all great. My guests can’t stop raving.“

“Love love love this place!Staff are always kind and welcoming. Great beer selection.Delicious pub food - my go-tos are the burger, wings, pretzel with beer cheese and the Mac and cheese (I'd recommend sharing this one as it is quite rich)The restaurant has a cozy vibe despite being a larger space and in the summertime their patio is pup friendly.“

“We recently had the pleasure of Julia's excellent service for a gathering of 22 people, and I couldn't be more impressed. Julia was not only kind and sweet but also incredibly attentive to our needs. The variety of food offered was outstanding, and every dish was fresh and delicious. I highly recommend Julia and her team for any event catering needs!“

“We had a wonderful experience at Tulia Osteria Bar The service was impeccable (thank you Andy!) and the food, amazing. We ordered the Antipasti Board to start and it was well curated and had ample portions. We followed this up a Pizzano pizza and Tagliatelle Bolognese. Very flavourful on both counts. And Pistachio gelato to finish. They are just getting started! Highly recommend. We will definitely be back!“

“Food is good for a bar, but it's a bar. I tried "Beef Cheek" and it's incredibly tender, practically melts on your tongue. It's a very chill place, a nice place to hang out, cute drawings, and a esthetically pleasing design. I would highly recommend the place if you are looking for a bar, but if you want dinner I would prefer to go to a different place.“

“Stopped by yesterday for an impromptu brunch. Was expecting everything to be just fine, but was blown away by the incredible taste, service, and ambiance. I had the tofu sandwich and side of potatoes, which were cooked and seasoned to perfection. The sandwich was incredibly flavorful and had a nice crunch to it. Our server was very attentive, warm, and friendly. The overall ambiance was inviting--the lighting and music was great. Definitely will be going back.“

“Manager Jenna and chef Randy made our menu tasting experience an unforgettable evening! They paid attention to great detail and made sure we were well taken care of. They made the space feel warm and inviting (it felt like eating at a mom & pop restaurant) as the sun set behind us. Thank you to all the staff that were all so accommodating to us. We had an amazing thyme. We will definitely be coming back and we highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to feel at home paired with delicious food and warm smiles!“

“Wow. What a hidden (literally) gem.I had the iced chai latte and the Kouign-amann… when I tell you that pastry changed my life, I mean it. I contemplated going back to get another one. Caramelized outside, soft and chewy inside - layered with cinnamon. It was the absolute perfect start to my morning.There’s such cute little gifts for purchase as well - perfect if you work or live in the area and need to get something unique and special for a gift.The staff were super friendly and the atmosphere is cozy yet upscale - in all the best ways.I will be back - excited to try more of their food offerings! The cookies looked delicious.“

“Great pizza. I mean GREAT pizza. We tried 2 pizzas, the pepperoni and cacio pepe. We also had their ribs, apparently a new item, and it should definitely stay on the menu!Our friends had burgers, they loved them. And we also had the Ceasar salad. To round things off we also shared a dessert that had dulce de leche with ice cream and nuts. Wonderful. And revisiting soon! Danny and his wife were also nice to chat with.Parking: On this part of College Street on most evenings, it is hard to score a street spot. Just the way it is. If it's a hassle you don't want grab a cab.“

“Flor 2 Tapas Bar is a great find if you're after an upscale vibe that won't break the bank. Ideal for a date night or but also a spot you could go to hang out with friends.The beef sliders were decent, but honestly, everything else I sampled on the menu on the menu was top-notch. The flavors were on point, and everything came out hot. I’m not too into seafood but based on what I had I’m sure seafood lovers will love that because there were many options.I didn't even have space for dessert—I was stuffed! I have an excuse to come back and try other items and attempt a sweet treat at the end. Overall, if you're looking for a reasonably priced spot with a classy feel, Flor 2 Tapas Bar will not disappoint.“

“A hidden jewel! Nestled away in the Palace Pier condo complex, Veloute Bistro is less well known than the quality of its food and service deserve.My husband and I enjoyed our first post-pandemic meal out after discovering Veloute among the many restaurants participating in Winterlicious. Unlike some places that had limited-time seatings (understandable but annoying) we were not rushed as we savoured 3 delightful courses plus a classic lime daiquiri to start the evening. The cocktail is not on the restaurant's standard menu, but Alise was able to create a delicious version of it. The staff was also most obliging in decanting our full-bodied red wine selection in advance of our arrival so it could "open up" in time for the main course.The Winterlicious menu duplicated a lot of Veloute's regular fare, and offered a varied and generous selection.The Caesar appetizer was somewhat unconventional with finely chopped romaine, but had a classic dressing with fresh parmigiano reggiano cheese. The Warm Lobster Crab Cake was even better, with a crisp panko coating and touches of smoked salmon and spicy guacamole.We both had the steak frites with rosemary and garlic mayonnaise, a bistro classic done to perfection, and wound up the meal with a deliciously delicate creme brulee accompanied by capuccinos. All highly impressive! Chef Fawzi is clearly a master of his craft, and we will definitely return to celebrate more special occasions at this lovely restaurant.“

“My favourite spot on Bayview, great for wine lovers! The staff are knowledgeable, friendly and make great suggestions based on your wine preferences. Awesome selection and variety. The food is always delicious. Perfect place for an intimate date night or for drinks with friends.“
“We were walking past it and decided to take a look. Turns out it was wine bar with some unique collections not available in LCBO. We tried a cocktail and white wine. I asked for something on the sweeter side and the server was very helpful in recommending an option. We both enjoyed our drinks sitting on bench outside while taking a break during our evening stroll. Cute, chill place - a hidden gem.“

“The cocktails here are incredible. I’ve been coming off and on for years and have always been blown away by the exceptional balance and depth of layered flavours. Before covid, I had a drink here called Don’t Worry Be Happy and I never forgot it. Once of the most beautiful cocktails I’ve ever had. Don’t sleep on this unassuming place! Drinks pictured are Jingle Juice and Chin Chin Mon Chérie“

“The best "casual" steakhouse in Toronto, bar none. After years of frequenting their sister restaurant down the street, Union, I finally made it out to Cote De Beouf.With just a few tables and a walk in only policy, it can be tough to get a table (this was my 4th try!) but it was well worth the hype.The waiter was right - Cote serves Toronto's best Steak Tartare. The Steak Frites, and especially the Braised Ribs special were incredible as well.Can't wait to come back!“

“3.5 rounded to a 4Food was pretty good. We tried a variety of their small plates and entrees to share amongst our group. Everything was fresh, vibrant and well balanced. The dishes were each presented with rustic elegance.However, I cannot recommend the overall experience. Service was unwelcoming and gave us an uncomfortable feeling throughout. Really dampened the whole night, so I wouldn't really rush back.“

“One of the best dining experiences I’ve had in Toronto! Their date night menu is definitely not to be missed. From the amuse bouche to the desserts, every dish was remarkable! Being a family-run restaurant, the owners lent a personal touch to the service. They even gave us an extra dessert on the house just because I mentioned I was curious about one of the menu items! Truly a precious hidden gem in the city.“

“Cute local spot with cool decor and delicious food.Stopped in on a whim on a Saturday afternoon around 2:30. Was seated immediately.Service was friendly and attentive. Was recommended a steak sandwich on special and it did not disappoint.Also enjoyed the croquettes and wedge salad.Prices were roughly $14-25 a dish. Portions are reasonable and the food was delicious.Cocktails were tastey. Beer is served in cans and approx. $7-$9 a piece.Would be happy to return.“

“Cute little cafe. Their cappuccinos are really good, as the espresso is good quality. I've tried a breakfast wrap and a muffin, and they were both yummy. Items are reasonably priced, but make sure you have cash or Canadian debit on you. Cute little place to sit and enjoy your coffee, and very friendly service. I always drop by when I'm in the neighbourhood!“

“Had a great time here! Pasta was delicious. Every dish was well balanced. I would say this is definitely new age Italian as opposed to traditional. We will definitely come back to try their new menu.Got the pomodoro, cacio e pepe, crudo, bitter green salad, and cheesy bread.“

“The best wine bar in the city! It's my go-to for an afternoon glass of wine and snacks (the sourdough is delicious and they completely converted me to half-sundried tomatoes), date nights, and spot to bring out-of-towners. Servers are both knowledgeable and warm, and the vibe is so cozy and chill. Their own line of wine is also delicious and a great bang for your buck — give it a go next time you're there!“

“Came by on a week night. Happy hour deal for cocktails is really good. Had a fresh espresso martini (not on happy hour) and a rebojito. Good selection of cocktails that I was surprised to see available for happy hour 10-12am.The jamon croquettes with truffle was to die for. I only wish they were bigger so I could have more. Bread and butter was nice too.Service was ok wish they came by more often as we were constantly trying to order more dishes.On a positive note: we ordered the steak with béarnaise on the side. It came out with it on (egg allergy) and they quickly remade it and gave us some coconut shots while we waited for our new steak.“

“This is one in the handful of favourite cafes in Toronto.The things I like about it:1. I find the staff really approachable. I've had good conversations with almost all of them, just by virtue of sitting at the bar as I drink coffee. I've had rich conversations with all of them, about whatever our shared interests are, or whatever is important to them. I always learn something.2. The coffee is very good, both in terms of the amount and quality and variety of roasts (which are De Mello, Subtext and Nile) currently. I've always talked shop with them, and they knows their stuff, and are enthusiastic about it.3. A big thing that draws me to a cafe is music, and they are always playing stuff I pull out my phone for to find out what it is. The vibe is great for working, and for chilling. I'm not really sure if each person who works on a particular day chooses their own music, but it feels like there's enough of a person-specific vibe, which I always enjoy no matter who is in.4. The customers tend to be friendly. Whenever I'm in, if there's a conversation going on, often the staff are involved if it's at the bar and they aren't busy, and it hasn't been very hard for me to participate if I find it interesting.Some days the place is quiet and chill, other days the place is sociable, and it always fits.If you like dogs, this place is very dog friendly, and a lot of the dogs are super sociable, gentle, and friendly, slowly coming up to you and enjoying whatever pets you give them.I especially love the donuts, cream cheese bagel things, and tiramisu.“

“We had a large party to celebrate our daughter’s engagement to her fiancé last weekend with well over 80 people to feed. The food from Skara was on time, hot and delicious! Our guests kept asking us where the delicious gyros was from. Skara! I would highly recommend Skara for your catering needs. I will definitely continue to use them. #bestgyros #skaracatering #catering #partyfood“
