“The food brought me back to northern italy! The service was amazing. Definitely recommend the burrata, cacio e pepe, gnocchi and their housemade gelato! Will be back!”
“What a great experience! The price and quality of food is good. Their broths were incredible, had the house special spicy broth and their chicken pepper broth. So flavourful! The service was incredible, they were friendly and attentive. Their sauces were on point, not the cheap stuff. I also really appreciated the details like having plenty of napkins available for customers to take as they need. Will definitely return!”
“This is my go to place when I'm craving hotpot! Food is always exellent and staffs in here are all welcoming and nice! Place is also clean and not too loud. I always recommend this place to my friends :)”
“Always wonderful. One of my favorite dishes is the Pad Thai but honestly, you can't go wrong here. Drinks are lovely, too. Portions are also excellent for the price.”
“Our server was very nice and pleasant. It's a very busy place, and tables are quite close together. So it's a bit noisy. But not uncomfortable. Food was okay. The beef tartare was very good. Mains are small, decent enough but unspectacular. The burgers are the size of sliders. Fries were soggy. Desserts are crazy expensive, $20 for a small slice of opera cake. Granted it was good, but way over-priced. Not really in a hurry to go back, unless someone else is paying.”

“My friends and I went to Denny's recently and it was fantastic! I need to commend our server, Khan, for the superb service he provided us. He was very friendly and just overall had great vibes. In addition, the food was also amazing and tasty and filling. I myself had one of their skillets and it was delicious. Would 100% recommend!!!”
“Fantastic service, great food and an overall lovely evening. Absolute favorite was the mistake mushroom, please do yourself a favor and try it out, it’s unlike any mushroom dish you’ve tried before.Insulation next to the windows could be improved so the guests sitting next to the windows won’t feel the wind blowing through the windows.”
“Amazing food and amazing service. Our waitress knew the menu so we’ll that she was able to talk us into dishes we normally wouldn’t order. Margaritas were amazing (not on menu but it is a Mexican restaurant). The ceviche was so good we ordered a second one. I never order pork at restaurants and rarely eat it - but it was amazing. Side salad was so flavorful and the desserts were fantastic. They just earned a Michelin star and I can see why!!”

“Tasty food, awesome atmosphere, smallish portions.Ordered bunch of dishes to share.Appetizers. Ackee & saltfish bites were quite delicious, but the fritters didn’t really taste like anything other than plain fried dough.Mains. Jerk chicken was very good, perfect level of spicy. Oxtail was super tender, melt in your mouth, rice and peas were also great. Curry goat was good, but not particularly special. Pan seared snapper fillet was the HIGHLIGHT of the night, big flaky pieces of flesh, sauce was so nice and creamy, vegetables and other toppings paired great.Overall fun and tasty experience. Although I understand why they include 20% gratuity for larger groups, I just personally don’t think a party of 6 was big enough to demand a surcharge.”
“Came here with a large group of people. We split several dishes amongst us all and it was more than enough for us. Staff were great, food was delicious. Will definitely come back.Vegetarian options: Suitable for those with dietary needs”
“First time here, loved it and did not even miss the meat.Great atmosphere, friendly staff and great tasting food.Vegan food done right! Loved the bang bang broccoli, Vodka pizza! Also if you like cocktails their Herb your enthusiasm is phenomenal.Their sushi is also a must try! So tasty!”
“The food was delicious! The atmosphere and service were excellent! An excellent place for a date or to meet family and friends. Highly recommend.Dietary restrictions: Great Gluten Free options”
“Wonderful restaurant! Apps were amazing (toasted focaccia and burrata), mains were good too (saffron tonnarelli was a bit too spicy for us; the branzino was lovely). Perfect amount of seasoning overall. Great wine selection. Would definitely go back.”
“Excellent experience! We were just coming to Gerrard to walk and came across this new place. Had Kashmiri and cardamom tea which were both the best we’ve had recently. We also had the hariyali chicken tikka and Dahi Puri-both very flavourful and we will be back with family and friends!”

“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 ?”

“Where the east meets west. Indulge in the finest sea urchins, bluefin tuna belly, and freshly prepared wasabi—all at an unparalleled value. Immerse yourself in the ambiance and engage with the chef for a richer experience, enhanced further if you can speak a bit of Japanese.”

“Owner/chef came to out table to translate any menu items into English and gave his recommendations (you are awesome). Staff were friendly, courteous and helpful and the food out of this world delicious! Highly recommend ❤️”
“We very much enjoyed our visit to Antler. Reserving a table was straightforward, and the courtesy call to confirm our booking was appreciated. We were seated promptly, and staff were friendly, courteous and knowledgeable.The charcuterie board was a great appetizer and we enjoyed the variety it offered.Our mains of the venison rack & boar chop were cooked perfectly! The parsnip & carrot sides to the venison were wonderful. The rye spaetzle side with the boar chop was the only down note for me, which I found to be bland and an unusual texture pairing.We enjoyed three of the desserts on offer, of which the maple budino was the stand out. Such a complex and yet perfectly balanced treat - we will be back just in hopes of finding this on the menu again.Overall - exceptional!”

“We've been spending our anniversary at Pukka for the last 3 years. Easily one of our favourite restaurants in the city.Amazing food and drinks. Simply untouchable.”
“Planta, the vegan restaurant, exceeded all expectations during my recent dining experience. From the moment I stepped inside, I was greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere that perfectly complemented the restaurant’s commitment to sustainability and plant-based cuisine. The menu at Planta is a true masterpiece, offering a wide array of innovative and flavorful dishes that cater to both vegans and non-vegans alike. The creativity and attention to detail in each dish are truly commendable. I started with their zesty avocado tartare, which was a burst of fresh flavors that left my taste buds. What truly sets Planta apart, though, is their commitment to sustainability and ethical sourcing. Knowing that every ingredient on my plate was not only delicious but also environmentally conscious added an extra layer of satisfaction to my meal. The service at Planta was exceptional, with knowledgeable staff who were happy to answer any questions about the menu and offer recommendations. The wine list and cocktail menu were equally impressive, providing the perfect accompaniments to our meals.”
“This is a win for the vegan community for sure, this is a gem within Toronto. The menu is fantastic and there are some great flavors and textures throughout the experience as well as some very well crafted mocktails. The restaurant is warm and inviting, as well as small and intimate. The staff is absolutely wonderful and make sure you have a great night. This is definitely a must for a date night.”
“The real stand out was the sea bass entree. The fish could not be cooked better. The pasta was well cooked but the ragu could have been better i think but i still enjoyed the entire meal.”
““Food can be very transformational, and it can be more than just about a dish. That’s what happened to me when I first went to Rikki Tikki restaurant. I fell in love. And if you fall in love, well, then visit and try the food definitely you will love it .””
“Bar Raval is a vibrant restaurant bar on College Street designed by the architectural firm Partisans. The design is a modern interpretation of Spanish Art Nouveau, while paying homage to the pintxo, the traditional tapas bars from northern Spain. Carefully cut from sculpted mahogany wood, the space was inspired by Gaudi’s biomimicry. The sinuous forms within Raval encourage mingling, keeping in the same spirit as Spain’s jovial pintxos. The nearly all day Raval is open from 11am until 1am, but my favorite time to visit is before sunset to witness the transition from a naturally lit art piece to a more dramatic look after dark.Bar Raval’s tapas game is strong, with delectable sharing plates like manchego, Catalan sobrassada, and marinated octopus. For drinks, bartender Elise Hanson has got you covered. The talented Elise, who recently won Bombay’s Most Imaginative Bartender, made me Raval’s iconic Bishop’s Garibaldi with Campari, fluffy orange juice, cinnamon, guajillo and pasilla pepper and nutmeg as well as her favorite (and mine too): White port and house tonic, perhaps the perfect low ABV concoction.”
“Authentic Tacos, fresh home made corn tortillas, salsas are amazing, highly recommended, I’m Mexican, this is the first time in 22 years that I have a preferred stop for tacos”
“Well done to the Pompette team. When I visit Toronto, Pompette will be a place I will definitely go. Warm welcome, professional service and dishes executed with professionalism. A sommelier to guide you in the right choice of wine and meal pairing.”
“We went as a group of 4, and ordered everything on the menu. I really appreciate their use of different textures. There’s a lot of depth in their flavor pairing as well. Overall the dishes can be a bit too sweet for my liking. The sweetness is subtle at first, i only started realizing that later on as more dishes are served and i found myself thinking oh this is getting a bit heavy. Still really enjoyed my experience at lake Inez! It’s quickly becoming one of mg favourite spots in the city.”

“Ishita and manan were really great and made me the best burger i have had in toronto!These guys serve the customers really wellI would recommend to all my friends.”
“Delicious roti in a great location. Had take out from here and it was great. Portion size was generous, and they included an extra snack and small desert with the roti, which was a nice surprise. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for roti in downtown Toronto.”
“Can’t go wrong with this Street Meat stand as long as you understand what you’re purchasing. Don’t expect a gourmet steak here but for a quick cheap hotdog or sausage you’re at the right place ??”
“So I was served by one of your employees named Shubhika and all I can say is she was very hospitable and the food was great.P.S: It feels great to be welcomed and served with a smile.”
“Great place for some diner food and wholesome customer service. Went twice in three days. I love that they refill your coffee. Highly recommend this place to start off your day as a visitor.”
“The staff here at this location really know what they're doing. Food handling skills are really good and for the price you can't go wrong at all. Everything tastes great and their inflation special menu is priced too well. I hope they don't change their prices. Highly recommend ground beef burrito and their pulled pork hard tacos.”
“Everything we Tried at The Lakeview DinerLocated at the corner of Dundas Street and Ossington, the iconic Lakeview Diner is a timeless backdrop for numerous Hollywood productions.

“Our experience was great. Allison was absolutely amazing, super professional, and accommodating. I asked probably a zillion questions and had tons of requests, and she patiently answered all of them, making sure our experience was perfect. Our server, Walter, was courteous, attentive, very knowledgeable and friendly. His recommendations were excellent, and they made us very happy.”
“Great friendly service at the Coxwell Subway with Jeel who made our sandwiches today. She was very careful about being clean washing her hands after using cash and returning to make our sandwiches. She asked how we would like them and all the toppings we would like. Putting the sandwiches together carefully so inside and sauce did not make a mess. Thank you for the amazing service ❤️ ? ?”
“So amazing!!!!Food is really good, and they didn’t have the side gravy option on skip the dishes, only poutine. so I put a note in asking if they would accommodate as I didn’t really have the option for the side order to dip my fries in, and they did! They gave me 2 side orders of gravy. Hopefully they put that option on skip now :) Wrote a nice note on my delivery bag as well that I thought was sweet. Great service!!! Definitely will order again or eat in. 10/10.”
“Well, everything is so amazing about this outlet. Food quality is awesome, ambience is much much better. The owner is so down to earth and works himself more than other crew members.Must visit place❤️”

“What a perfect and cute place to get one of the most delicious cups of coffee - a true coffee lovers delight! We enjoyed one of the signature coffees and look forward to getting it again, and again! So, flavorful and aromatic.The staff were super kind and very helpful!”
“Amazing BBQ, good portions, so so tasty. We got the medium BBQ on the Table with a good amount of meat, the spicy chicken was especially loved by our table. I got Barley tea, which is new to me and lovely.But the highlight was Jason the owner, he makes you feel fully welcome. He said “I want you to feel like a guest in my mother’s home.” And you do feel it.It’s a wonderful place. This place got my friend through the Pandemic & it’s great that it survived, so they could share it with us. I need to come back next time I am in the area. Don’t walk- RUN to Korean Village Restaurant!”
“Food was absolutely delicious and the service was some of the best I’ve ever had. Staff is very attentive and very good at just making sure is going well for you. Shree, our waitress, was a delight!”
“Great dinner at Mandarin Yonge to celebrate Mid Autumn Festival. This visit we tried a few new items fro the Small Eats. The teriyaki salmon, teriyaki meatballs and tofu were delicious. Salmon was cooked to perfection. As always Paddy and our server Amy made our evening extra special. Looking forward to our next visit.”
“Honest Weight restaurant is a charming gem nestled in the heart of the Junction. If you're a fan of sustainable, mouthwatering seafood prepared with care, this is the place to be. The staff is incredibly friendly, and the food is consistently delightful and fresh.”
“We ordered the signature shrimbul. We came on a Monday afternoon around 4, so it wasn’t very busy. Service was good, food came fairly quickly, but this may be due to the time that we came. Pizza is very good, the sauce tastes a bit sweet and delicious; the style is thick and heavy, so only 13” fed two of us, maybe 16” if you are two big boys.”
“Everything we have had at Bellona Kitchen has been absolutely amazing! The food is so delicious and the atmosphere feels like home. The best Italian favourites served with love. Can’t wait until the next time! ❤️”
“I love, LOVE this restaurant! I rarely post reviews as I am often disappointed but this is truly a gem! We've had food from Tiflisi 4 times now and are under their spell. I had never had Georgian food before and boy have I been missing out! It tastes like nothing I've had before. And the service is really friendly. We're so lucky to have them in the hood. I hope they'll be around for a long while!”
“Really cool and quaint spot with excellent service. Everything is fresh. Their scones were the highlight - as well as their pickles. Hot turkey sandwich tasted like thanksgiving dinner!”

“If I could rate this restaurant more than five stars I definitely would! Sadly, we now live in a place where there is no Swiss Chalet. My husband, knowing my great love of Swiss Chalet, planned a surprise 60th birthday party for me when we were visiting Toronto at this place. He had worked together with the owner, Anisur Salim, in secret without me having a clue. When I arrived, everything was so well organized, the restaurant had beautiful balloons for me and even donated a birthday cake! There were about 40 of us there that evening and the owner made sure everything went off so smoothly and the food was delicious! He was very attentive and was happy to have been working with my husband on this surprise. Thank you so, so much for all of your hard work to create such a beautiful evening for me! It was absolutely perfect!”

Fine Dining
“If you want to dine in a big restaurant where you can get big serving sizes and see servers and other customers pass by you then this is not your place. This restaurant offers private and personal dining experience that is hard to find in Toronto. The restaurant is small with only 9 seats. We dined with another couple and each group got one server and the host was also taking care of us. The service is excellent and meeting my expectations. We tried the spring menu this time and I love the aged blue fin tuna, squid,monkfish liver, and Hokkaido sea urchin. The portion size is small but you can't feel hungry as you get many dishes. The food is high in quality and sourced from Japan. The chef skills are amazing and he has a great sense of humor. I will definitely comeback to try the menu in different seasons. Thank you team, you guys did a great job!”
“A phenomenal meal that l will go down as one of the best I have ever had. We were there to celebrate a special occasion and couldn't have asked for anything better.We were there for almost 2 hours, but service was wonderful and attentive throughout and the dishes in the tasting menu were all so unique and special.We arrived shortly after they opened on a weekday evening and the restaurant was pretty quiet. Because of that, Chef Liu came out and served us a bonus dish that ended up being our favourite of the night. Definitely made our experience a memorable one.”
“A TEN course tasting menu in intimate surrounding with the chef preparing your food directly in front of you. Largely vegetarian with 2 fishs dishes...a scrumptious ceviche and a seared cod. A fantastic experience for all your senses ...and educational too!”
“This was the best dining experience of my life. The multidimensional balance of flavour, texture, and temperature was an experience that delighted the senses in a new way for me. We did the full omakase and sake pairing. It's worth every cent. Staff and service were perfectly refined and welcoming. Thanks Yasu!! I will return for sure”
“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.”
“Incredible experience! I had the best solo date with myself at Casa Madera! Aside from the amazing vibes, live music, and dancing, Kelly, the waitress for my table, was the highlight of my brunch. She customized her recommendations to my dietary needs and made sure I had a great experience and view of the decor. She was friendly and fun to speak with. She helped me take beautiful videos and photos of my meal and made me feel comfortable and welcome as a customer. I highly recommend Casa Madera for your future dates or events and if you're ever so lucky to bump into Kelly, I promise you you'll be in for a wonderful experience”
“This place is special. We tried it in summer 2023, and it blew our minds. We've been back multiple times since then. We celebrated a special birthday here, and it was so good I took my mom here for her 60th. In her words, it was "the best culinary experience of her life". Frank's ever-changing vision of his menu is not only inspiring to home cooks like myself, but jaw dropping with what he offers - and no two visits have the same menu. The staff are lovely, unpretentious and ensure you feel at home when dining with them. And don't get me started on their wine list. I'd give them 10/5 if I could. We will be back many, many, many more times. Thanks Frank and team.”
“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!”
“First ever omakase experience and it did not disappoint. Favourite part was most definitely the sushi round which served individual pieces at a time to patrons. Each sushi was unique to its own with specific ingredients procured from different regions of the world. Time passed by too quickly as I could’ve eaten more. Given the process of serving food, dining etiquette was at first confusing for a first time noob like myself but I quickly adapted to the experienced patrons near me. The staff here is also exceptionally kind as my wife mentioned it was my birthday and the chef presented me an extra piece of sushi with a candle. Turns out you can also let them know ahead of time and they’ll generously prepare a piece of birthday cake. All in all it was a great experience and a definite recommendation for sushi lovers and foodies alike.”
“Our small group had the pleasure of being invited by the owner for a small tasting menu. All of us were very impressed with the quality and presentation of the cuisine whilst keeping food restrictions top of mind for the select few. The service was on point, the employees were efficient.Lucie's decor is visually stunning yet comfortable. It's clear that Yoann the General Manager and Yannick the Owner have a very strong passion for providing every guest with a warm and hospitable environment to dine in.”
“Fantastic food and service, and excellent value. The chef's counter dining experience was a generous 12 course meal, and the chef added a few more on top of that. It is one of best tasting menus I've ever had. Filipino fusion cuisine was very well executed. This may be my new favourite restaurant in Toronto.”
“Ostaria Giula has the most amazing staff our server was Giancarlo he was super amaziOstaria Giulia hang with great recommendations. He was very knowledgeable about all the food and was able to suggest dishes for food allergies. I was so excited to go to our first Michelin star restaurant to celebrate a birthday and an anniversary. I was hoping to be able to meet Rob Rossi but I didn't just meet him, he was aware of our celebration and he took the time to come and great us .....I am a foodie so I was truly star struck. David Minicucci went above and beyond getting us a perfect table and ensuring we had a wonderful celebration. Thank you all at Ostaria Giulia from the chefs to servers and bar tender and the wonderful sommelier who suggested the perfect wine. We had an amazing time that I will remember forever. BRAVO!!!!!”
“Excellent dining experience at George with their 5 course tasting menu. Staff were very attentive (we had booked a private room) and restaurant had a mature and cool atmosphere.Highlights were the beef tartare and sirloin. The tartare had a very unique blend of flavours and textures that really elevated the dish; unlike any tartare I’ve had before. The beef tenderloin was the shining star however. The potato pave had such a nice sweetness to it to accompany perfectly cooked beef.”
“One of the best restaurants in the city! We started off with the sourdough bread with olive oil - it was super soft! Then we moved on to the bone marrow, which was very decadent - it came with bread and chimichurri. The grilled octopus was great, as usual. Something we tried different was the mushroom dish - which was meaty and delicious. Service and cocktails were amazing! Vibes were immaculate.”
“There are a number of reasons to recommend PSP, the venue, the food and the staff are all excellent. The venue is calming and uplifting. The staff are professional and attentive. The food.... OMG it's a creative journey through the farms and fields of Canada! executed by a crew that is dedicated to their craft. Chef Coulson is doing amazing things here :-)”
“Great dinner at Mandarin Yonge to celebrate Mid Autumn Festival. This visit we tried a few new items fro the Small Eats. The teriyaki salmon, teriyaki meatballs and tofu were delicious. Salmon was cooked to perfection. As always Paddy and our server Amy made our evening extra special. Looking forward to our next visit.”
“Everything we have had at Bellona Kitchen has been absolutely amazing! The food is so delicious and the atmosphere feels like home. The best Italian favourites served with love. Can’t wait until the next time! ❤️”

“Incredibly pleasant and fast service, delicious food. The facility is very clean and homely. We were served by the cashier Angela, who helped us choose a pizza. Extremely nice and polite woman who is an expert in choosing pizza. Recommended!!”
“Absolutely love the MOMO’s at Loga’s corner at close avenue and at the NEW location at Queen street west. Great date night restaurant with family & loved ones. Loga is amazing & customer service is awesome. Would highly recommend it to everyone. 10/10”
“Amazing find, owners are both amazing. Really enjoy their chicken sandwiches. I’m in every Saturday. This place needs more attention!!!Dietary restrictions: All halal :)”
“As a non-vegan, Tsuchi cafe's food was really good. I was very surprised by how delicious it was. Though they have a limited seated area, this place is definitely a must try. I loved the Karepan and the walnut brownie. The pistachio natcha tart was okayish. The flan was really good!”
“Bit of a wait, the tacos were decent. Baja Fish was delicious, shrimp was okay. Both were lacking in something not exactly too sure. Service was fantastic! Can see why it’s a popular spot.”
“Caked Coffee is on a mission to change the world. They make delicious food and delicious coffee and tea. They do not charge money for drinks, and that creates a beautifully warm and inviting atmosphere. This is a truly unique bakery and coffee shop. I have never met such wonderful people that I now consider to be a part of my family. My new favorite menu item is the tofu scramble croissant. 100% vegan. 200% delicious.”
“Our takeout experience at Postman Waffles was fantastic. We ordered a variety of waffles, including chocolate, everything, and churro, and each one was a delight. The waffles were perfectly cooked and tasted amazing. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making our visit even more enjoyable. If you're a waffle lover, Postman Waffles is a must-visit spot.”
“Hero Tea's Mango Sago Tea is an absolute delight for the taste buds. The infusion of ripe mango flavor and the delightful addition of sago pearls create a harmonious symphony of textures and tastes. The tea strikes a perfect balance between sweetness and freshness, making it a refreshing beverage for any occasion. The quality of ingredients is evident in every sip, showcasing Hero Tea's commitment to excellence. The presentation is impeccable, with vibrant colors and an inviting aroma that enhances the overall sensory experience. The staff at Hero Tea demonstrates exceptional customer service, adding to the positive atmosphere of the establishment. Overall, Hero Tea's Mango Sago Tea is a must-try for tea enthusiasts and anyone seeking a flavorful, well-crafted beverage.”
“Ive come here many times! Always friendly and the California classic & vatican burger is the best!Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access ramp from the sidewalk into the store.”
“I’d wait 3 hours in knee deep snow for this pizza, don’t skip the hot honey & creamy pepperoncini dipVegetarian options: Lots of veg pizza options, burrata is amazing”
“We drove 5 hours to Toronto for a weekend break, arrived at the restaurant at 9:25pm. They showed their welcome greetings, settle everyone in a table with hot tea. Their hot and aroma pho soup was really a rejuvenation for us. They have a cleanest rest room, just like a home. Highly recommended.”
“Had an amazing experience at The Burger Priest, Nat, Deen, and Ander helped me select the California Classic, after hearing out my preferences in burgers! I would def suggest coming here for amazing burgers and incredible customer service!!!”
“Admittedly, I didn’t have the espresso, but I’ll be back to review that. However, I had the buttertart and I’d say it was the best buttertart I’ve had in the city. And I have tried many buttertarts. The place is super cute, the service was friendly.Vegetarian options: Pastries, coffee, tea”
“The whole experience here was incredible.The coffee was probably the best I’ve ever had and the food is all homemade with love. It’s actually probably the best Turkish food I’ve ever tried.”
“Wonderful restaurant! Apps were amazing (toasted focaccia and burrata), mains were good too (saffron tonnarelli was a bit too spicy for us; the branzino was lovely). Perfect amount of seasoning overall. Great wine selection. Would definitely go back.”
“Very tasty broth and good quality pork! Shoyu ramen was really good but I think my favorite from the night was the pork miso. Friendly staff and clean bathrooms. What’s not to like?”
“The food is so tender and the meet is juicy. Absolutely recommended for beef burger and the grilled chicken sandwich lovers. Thanks Chef Ala’a for the great service and recommendations.”
“This is a win for the vegan community for sure, this is a gem within Toronto. The menu is fantastic and there are some great flavors and textures throughout the experience as well as some very well crafted mocktails. The restaurant is warm and inviting, as well as small and intimate. The staff is absolutely wonderful and make sure you have a great night. This is definitely a must for a date night.”
“A warm, intimate restaurant perfect for solo dining or a small group. Delicious wines, inventive dishes, friendly staff and an air of camaraderie across all aspects of the show. Lovely, would dine ”
“A nice place to get a bowl of Ramen when feeling hungry. Not too pricey but not the greatest quality, Kinton is more of a casual dine in place for craving Ramen.”
“Amazing ambiance, food is super delicious, staff and the chef are very polite The best thing is there food freshness Have been around so many restaurants but this place has been the best I came across I wish they maintain there standards, will surely recommend a ton of people to please visit this place. You will need reach the restaurant before busy hours to get a table”
“Fantastic experience! Staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. Food was also very delicious at very reasonable prices and large portions. Highly recommend the salmon trio!”
“I live the Vegan Shoyu Reman, the soup broth was good and full of umami, i will rate it the second best ramen in Canada after Ramen Danbo in Vancouver, the vegan gyoza was doing okay just not the best, i cant tell whats the stuffing inside, it was crispy but not texture can be improved.The waiter is not friendly when i want to use the washroom before seated, he said it is only for customer but he didnt ask whether i am going to order here, his judgmental attitude make my evaluation deduced 2 stars on the services.Overall is good and i will definitely come visit again when next time i visiting Toronto.”
“HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! Our five-year-old daughter spotted the place; so on a whim we tried it, and we love it. Now we come as a family all the time. There is such a wide variety of food choices, everything is so tasty. Little Kamaria’s favourite is the Seafood Bat Pizza, I can’t get enough of the Korean wings. Mom loves their unique take on Nachos. Each visit we’ll try another new dish! The staff are super friendly too.”
“Dined here tonight- our server was Satnam. Food was delicious and service was very nice as well. Ambiance of the restaraunt is very nice, will definitely be back with my family!”
“Authentic Japanese noodles and I love the atmosphere and hospitality there. Hayley is attentive and friendly. Love their one person combo set, if they can allow me top up for choosing some others will be wonderful.”
“This is the sweetest brunch hot spot with all of the fantastic fixings. They have a creative cocktail menu of drinkable magic and their Benny’s are a thing of pure bliss. We could not leave without ordering the ‘No Regrets’ Red Velvet pancakes and we are so happy we did, they were perfection. We are already are looking forward to our next delicious date here.”
“The food was amazing. Price is good the taste. Service is ok. I told the waiter to add an extra bao for to go instead the order came all 3 together. Server said he is going to make sure another one will be ready for to go but then they didn't give & I didn't ask for it. But the food was so good. Specially wagoo beef was so good.”
“Had a great meal with well flavoured chicken shawarma, and a variety of salads & veggie sides, along with some great dessert. Good flavours & good value & good service!”
“Brittany and Skye took excellent care of us. The cocktails were varied and delicious and the food was well prepared and presented beautifully. We had a ribeye, the lamb, and the cauliflower “steak”. Everyone was pleased. Highly recommended.”
“A phenomenal meal that l will go down as one of the best I have ever had. We were there to celebrate a special occasion and couldn't have asked for anything better.We were there for almost 2 hours, but service was wonderful and attentive throughout and the dishes in the tasting menu were all so unique and special.We arrived shortly after they opened on a weekday evening and the restaurant was pretty quiet. Because of that, Chef Liu came out and served us a bonus dish that ended up being our favourite of the night. Definitely made our experience a memorable one.”
“Absolutely fantastic tasty Detroit style pizza! Worth the drive! When a pizza is made with quality fresh ingredients and touched with love you can’t go wrong! Awesome place!”
“I love, LOVE this restaurant! I rarely post reviews as I am often disappointed but this is truly a gem! We've had food from Tiflisi 4 times now and are under their spell. I had never had Georgian food before and boy have I been missing out! It tastes like nothing I've had before. And the service is really friendly. We're so lucky to have them in the hood. I hope they'll be around for a long while!”
“This was the best dining experience of my life. The multidimensional balance of flavour, texture, and temperature was an experience that delighted the senses in a new way for me. We did the full omakase and sake pairing. It's worth every cent. Staff and service were perfectly refined and welcoming. Thanks Yasu!! I will return for sure”
“Really cool and quaint spot with excellent service. Everything is fresh. Their scones were the highlight - as well as their pickles. Hot turkey sandwich tasted like thanksgiving dinner!”
“Incredible experience! I had the best solo date with myself at Casa Madera! Aside from the amazing vibes, live music, and dancing, Kelly, the waitress for my table, was the highlight of my brunch.

“They are the Ontarian Olive Garden substitute for good italian food. But where Oive Garden hav lost the plot, east side marios have upped their game since when they years ago. Their menu provides you ample variety without confusing you too much. They have great Veg and non vegetarian options. Their all you can eat salads and soup with bread is a great option if you want to eat something light and healthy (Depending on your selection of soups and salad). They have a very good selection of drinks both alc & non-alc. The ambience isn't great but it is good. The pricing is also spot on which makes it good value for money. The staff serves with a smile. These reasons have made repeat customers of me and the fly.”
“Everything was immaculate! The food, ambiance, the service, everything! will definitely recommend this place to anyone who is looking for some authentic traditional cuisine!”
“The place is so different than the last day I came here. There’s less Izakaya and more like sushi bar menu. Service is good, the server is kind and explain in details about the food. The oyster is delicious, but I do miss the more Izakaya-kind of food.”
“Great food, great atmosphere and friendly service ❤ I am not very familiar with Ethiopian / Eritrean food so to try things out I got the Vegan Veggie Combo Platter which had samples of about 14 different dishes and a salad. It was great, served on injera (a crepe-like bread) which is used as the cutlery so on top of being delicious, it was fun to eat!”
“Fantastic food and service, and excellent value. The chef's counter dining experience was a generous 12 course meal, and the chef added a few more on top of that. It is one of best tasting menus I've ever had. Filipino fusion cuisine was very well executed. This may be my new favourite restaurant in Toronto.”
“A quaint, cozy place with a cute outdoor seating. This Persian cafe has wonderful brunch menu. I had the Dutch baby pancake with berries on top, with bacon and eggs on the side. Don’t get fooled by the front, go to the back and have a seat at the outdoor area. Fabulous.”
“Honest Weight restaurant is a charming gem nestled in the heart of the Junction. If you're a fan of sustainable, mouthwatering seafood prepared with care, this is the place to be. The staff is incredibly friendly, and the food is consistently delightful and fresh.”
“Been going here for awhile now. The food here is GREAT plus the customer service was amazing. It feels warm and friendly when coming here. Overall I recommend this place.”
“Really nice staff, food, and space. We got the calamari, shrimp tempura, miso black cod, and the chef’s selection 8 nigiri. All the food was extremely good, and would definitely come back.”
“OMGOODNESS, what a hidden gem! Thankful my Aunt knew it well. Huge portions, amazingly tasty and quick to the table, hot and fresh! Service was so friendly and accommodating. In town for an appointment but would definitely travel the hour to enjoy again!”
“This new place is fantastic.Excellent friendly and fast service.The House special Pho was delicious and flavourful, but the Pho Poutine was a step above all other restaurants in the area.Everything on the menu looks great, and can't wait to return to try them out.HIGH recommendation!!”
“Visited on a Wednesday afternoon after the rush lunch hours because we are in town for a concert and are very happy with our choice.We picked the wagyu beef udon and the curry katsu udon and both are super delicious. Both served hot, it is ideal for the chilly+rainy day we visited.Service is great and the deco made you feel like one just travelled to Japan for a short trip.If I must say something that the place can improve on, it would be the chairs they chose for the seaters along the wall. whole having an arm made it comfortable, it is not really meant for chubbier people like myself. When all three tables are occupied (which it were at the tike we visited), it is almost impossible to get out of the seat without bugging/touching the customer behind you.This will be on our can visit again list!”
“Food was very good and tasty. We are from northern Indian and the food was very authentic with the right mix of spices for North American and traditional pallets :). Try the Dahl and Channa!”
“I came here for my birthday dinner not knowing what to expect! I’m so glad I came in! Love the iPad to order, the food and service are all amazing!!! They also have super good music !!!!”
“One of my favourite restaurants in Toronto. Food is incredible and service is top tier. Highly recommend to anybody looking for a place to dine. Don’t skip out on this place… and if you can get Eric as your server 10/10”
“I’ve been following Sugo on Instagram for a while and the images are always just so lush. Plates of mountain Spaghetti, succulent Burrata oozing over pesto pasta, tubes of saucy Rigatoni, crispy Calamari, buttery pillows of soft in the centre, crunchy on the outside garlic bread. I’m talking the kind of food you dream of. Yesterday, we went after months of imagining what the actual experience might be like and it did not disappoint. The food tasted even better than the photos suggested it was! The sandwiches are insane. Everything was luscious, flavourful and gorgeous. And our waitress, Jamie was a delight! Well worth the drive from Richmond Hill. Great food, generous portions, lovely eating experience. Foodie approved!”
“Great food here. Ate the chicken ramen with a few friends, and it tasted pretty authentic. A little bit like alfredo--but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Service was ”
“Bar Raval is a vibrant restaurant bar on College Street designed by the architectural firm Partisans. The design is a modern interpretation of Spanish Art Nouveau, while paying homage to the pintxo, the traditional tapas bars from northern Spain. Carefully cut from sculpted mahogany wood, the space was inspired by Gaudi’s biomimicry. The sinuous forms within Raval encourage mingling, keeping in the same spirit as Spain’s jovial pintxos. The nearly all day Raval is open from 11am until 1am, but my favorite time to visit is before sunset to witness the transition from a naturally lit art piece to a more dramatic look after dark.Bar Raval’s tapas game is strong, with delectable sharing plates like manchego, Catalan sobrassada, and marinated octopus. For drinks, bartender Elise Hanson has got you covered. The talented Elise, who recently won Bombay’s Most Imaginative Bartender, made me Raval’s iconic Bishop’s Garibaldi with Campari, fluffy orange juice, cinnamon, guajillo and pasilla pepper and nutmeg as well as her favorite (and mine too): White port and house tonic, perhaps the perfect low ABV concoction.”
“Had dinner there last night with two friends. The 3 of us shared 1 appetizer and 3 mains and they were all absolutely delicious! Flavours and foods I had not tried before and I've had Syrian food before. Highly recommend!!!!”
“This is such an amazing place. The customer service and the vibe is immaculate. Especially Axel he was so kind and the owner was super lovely as well. I love the fact that this place is halal and also AUTHENTIC with the most beautifully decorated interior!!! WILL BE BACK :)”
“Ordered pizza for take out so can't say much about serivde and atmosphere. But the "Canadian" pie was great. We ordered the last one of the day, so it's possible if you order close to the late hour, they may not have food, so keep that in mind. The flavor was delicious and was very filling. It's 4 slices, about 5"x4" and thick! Prices were reasonable I guess, but def worth it. They have some cool and unique flavors as well. I'd recommend.Parking: Busy street parking with trolly. Better off finding some on the surrounding blocks.”
“Absolutely one of the most complete hospitality experiences in the city of Toronto. A must-try if you like high-quality food, old-world wines and attentive service.”
“Had a meal for 4 here. Great food and excellent service, the pork shoulder and the beef were excellent and Simon looked after us very well.Wheelchair accessibility: Small step in from door but otherwise flat with accessible toilets.”
“This was the second time visiting Maison T during my holiday from Ireland. We had the Australian Lamb Saddle and the Arctic Char. Both were absolutely perfectly prepared and cooked by the chef Masayuki Tamaru. The desserts were heavenly! It was a delight to be attentively served by owner Carolina and waiter Jamie. Although busy, we got the chance to speak with them both and we also personally thanked chef Masayuki after the meal. Thank you for a wonderful experience. Maison T is certainly on my return list when I next comes to Toronto. Mark P Laverty.”
“Overall very enjoyable! That being said I felt the service staff to be a bit intrusive. We had 3 different staff coming to our table multiple times and at times asking the same questions and interrupting our conversation.”
“Ordered here for the first time and everything was delicious!! Staff was very friendly and helpful, and the atmosphere of the place was so nice to wait in. Best Indian food I’ve had in a long ”
“Well let me tell you something brotherMy brother Javier brother, he's a brother brotherAnd brother if I brother, were to make a list brother of all the brothers out there brother, Javier brother he's a real brother brother. Whenever a brother, like me brother, askes brother, what chu gonna do brother, brother Javier brother he comes out and saysSome say all brothers are created equalBut you look at me and you look at your brother Javier brother, and you can see that statement is NOT trueSee normally when you a brother you got a 50/50 chance of being a brother, but Javier brother is a brother freak and not normal. So you got a 25% chance at best at being a brother, but Javier has a 75% chanceSo you take that 75% chance of being a brotherAnd add in the 50% chance of brother Javier being your brother brother, and you got a 125% chance of Javier being a brother brotherYou seeThe numbers don't lieAnd the say Javier is a brother brotherBROTHER!”
“If you come to Toronto, it is a no brainer!! I loved the Jz's signature pizza. The staff was amazing and we had a great time talking on basketball. Definetely I will come back.”
“Enjoyed a delicious lunch today and excellent, personable service. A lovely room, and generous portions. Had the squash fritters and pad Thai (hot). Very elevated presentation and perfect heat level. Will definitely return.”
“Came into Fresh with my two friends for happy hour. Our cocktails were ten dollars each and they had various food options for only eight dollars each. Great options for when you’re trying to save. Adrian was lovely and provided warm service. The food came out very quickly. My only feedback would be about the pita services with the hummus. It felt very raw and cooked have used more time in the toaster. Other than that, everything was delish!”
“There are many fine sushi restaurants in the GTA and Kibo is a franchise chain, but it consistently delivers. Temper expectations to good sushi and maki at reasonable prices and it is worthy of a pretty solid review. Does it stand up to singular and dedicated sushi chefs? There is a reason why we have so many Michelin-rated Japanese and sushi restaurants locally. So Kibo isn’t competing with those … but it’s still good.”
“This is my 4th visit to this restaurant and everytime I tried different items. All my experiences with Bapbo was amazing. If you are looking for the best authentic Korea food in Toronto, Bapbo is the one for your yummy tummy… ?”
“The ramen was delicious. Highly recommend the pork with an egg. My grandmother has a gluten allergy so it was nice to have the option of the potato noodles. Oddly I really liked their bathrooms as they were playing older Japanese music and there was mouthwash to use”
“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!”
“Was surprised by this restaurant, food was great, huge menu and a ton of selections. Loved the Gnocchi!The cocktail menu was a miss for the most part, the servers were nice and attentive. Would go back again..”
“Excellent option for Peruvian food with a lot of local favourites for anyone that has had it abroad. Great variety of ceviche, and all the home style favourites are on their menu including lomo saltado (pictured) and pollo a la brasa. We also had the beef medallions which were so tender and flavourful, as well as the squid ink risotto which came loaded with seafood.”
“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.”
“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!”
“so far i’d say this is the best sushi i’ve had in toronto! very high quality ingredients, very reasonably priced for what you get. perfect portion sizes and they have lots of creative rolls! and the vegetarian options go way beyond the standard fare. the service is always incredibly friendly! extra points for the presentation always being beautiful and unique compared to other sushi places. i’ll always go here to pick up sushi for special occasions!”
“Authentic Tacos, fresh home made corn tortillas, salsas are amazing, highly recommended, I’m Mexican, this is the first time in 22 years that I have a preferred stop for tacos”
“A TEN course tasting menu in intimate surrounding with the chef preparing your food directly in front of you. Largely vegetarian with 2 fishs dishes...a scrumptious ceviche and a seared cod. A fantastic experience for all your senses ...and educational too!”
“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.”
“SAKU has been one of my favourite sushi spots for years. I'm so glad they are still around and offering great food and drink options!We recently stopped by for their Happy Hour special which is from 9pm til close. They have $6 sushi, apps, and $6 drinks and $10 cocktails! Incredible deal!The service was great and food hit the spot. I love all of the Neon lights and anime posters ?”
“Had an excellent experience with great staff and friends. Food was on point, and delivered in a timely fashion. Highly recommend. Anushree was fabulous and definitely made our dining experience even better with her recommendations”
“We definitely enjoyed our meal at August 8. The food was aesthetically pleasing, tasty, and properly prepared.I rated the service only 4 out of 5 stars because our table was often overlooked, and we didn't receive all of our first order until we had asked three different servers (20 minutes after the first part of our order was delivered to the table) if it had been forgotten. They also only give you 90 minutes to eat lunch, 90 minutes goes very quickly, especially because they control the time in which they bring out your meals. Therefore you're not getting quite the value of your money, and feel as though you have to dine quickly.The restaurant is very clean, as are the washrooms (in my experience, this is usually Telltale sign whether or not the kitchen would be clean!)There are tons of food options, and from what I saw on our plates, as well as other tables the food comes out fresh.I would definitely recommend this restaurant.Ps, don't let your eyes be too big for your belly. If you don't finish the food on your plate, they will charge you extra for it. Drinks are also an additional cost to the "all you can eat" mealWheelchair accessibility: I don't imagine this restaurant would be wheelchair accessible as the only bathrooms that I saw were in the basement. Otherwise, a wheelchair could come in to the restaurant, but the area is tight with tables.”
“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.

“I was invited for a business lunch to this exceptional restaurant . The interior is warm and luxurious with a hint of subdued elegance. The menu has an excellent selection of fish & seafood prepared in many variations, not to mention fish is flown in from Portugal. The staff are attentive and the maître d as well as hostess provide a refined level of service . I thoroughly enjoyed Grilled filet of Grouper cherry tomato, jalapeño salsa and a Portuguese beer . The food was delicious and delectable.This is definitely on my list of restaurants to have a romantic & elegant dinner with my wife.”
“The real stand out was the sea bass entree. The fish could not be cooked better. The pasta was well cooked but the ragu could have been better i think but i still enjoyed the entire meal.”

“Had the pleasure of visiting today and it was top notch! Amazing trackman fitted simulators with bonus putting area. Full bar and food service with attentive and polite staff. Would recommend to anyone.”
“They are the Ontarian Olive Garden substitute for good italian food. But where Oive Garden hav lost the plot, east side marios have upped their game since when they years ago. Their menu provides you ample variety without confusing you too much. They have great Veg and non vegetarian options. Their all you can eat salads and soup with bread is a great option if you want to eat something light and healthy (Depending on your selection of soups and salad). They have a very good selection of drinks both alc & non-alc. The ambience isn't great but it is good. The pricing is also spot on which makes it good value for money. The staff serves with a smile. These reasons have made repeat customers of me and the fly.”

“I always walk past this spot looking at the posted menus and never stepped in to try. Until now and which happens to be Fathers Day and I must say was not disappointing. Alcoholic drinks did not chinks on the servings.Food presentations was awesome, price per servings matched and the taste was empicable. Must say it definitely deserved 2 thumbs up. Would recommend it do anyone”
“I was just passing by and came across this absolutely amazing place. First of all, the atmosphere is so reminiscing of small neighbourhood cafes in Lisbon, where everyone speaks Portuguese, watched football and have a pleasant conversation with basically every visitor.Secondly, food. One of the best places in Toronto in terms of the ratio of the portions’ size, taste and price. I had a beef steak with an egg and fries, and it was absolutely delicious.Thirdly, the staff is super friendly.All in all, if I could give this place 10 starts, I would.”

The food was great and our server Kaitlyn was super accommodating of my friend who is celiac.I would definitely come here again.Dietary restrictions: They have separate menus so you know that anything you’re ordering is gluten-free, vegetarian or vegan.

“Was here for an event- ambience was great and space was very separate from the main dining area. Gave enough privacy. The set menu was pretty good. Main Beef striploin dish was slightly over done, but the polpette was so good! Salad was ok. The appetizers served throughout the night were quite good - chicken skewers were great, but avocado crisps were slightly difficult to eat given the hard shell”
“Maitre d was incredibly inviting upon entering this restaurant. A very classic intimate atmosphere. Decor including several posters of classic films, of course all were in French. The wait staff was complementary of the welcome we received when we came in. Very knowledgeable of the menu, the source of the entrees we were interested in and offered recommendations on how we could spend our short time in Toronto, as this was our first visit. We would recommend this restaurant to anyone that is looking for an intimate, delicious restaurant with food deserving of an audience no matter the time of day. Thank you to everyone we interacted with during our visit. Your kindness as well as the food was five star!”

“I was excited to hear about a place that serves Halifax style donairs so I was real anticpating this one. Now I am not disappointed but feel that are differences between the two I say this because I was born in Halifax, N.S. and donairs is #1 thing that people love. The difference is the thickness of the sauce, thickness of the pita and there is no lettuce added to a traditional donair just white onions and tomatoes to round it out. With these few changes to there donair you can say it would make it more authentic. These donairs are delicious and flavourful.”
“Absolutely fantastic tasty Detroit style pizza! Worth the drive! When a pizza is made with quality fresh ingredients and touched with love you can’t go wrong! Awesome place!”
“I order food from here 2 times in a week and today I ordered desi style handi chicken with garlic naan. Chicken tastes so amazing and reminds me of exactly dhaba style indian chicken curry. Super tasty. Will surely recommend desi style chicken and chicken leg.”
“Visited this place for our wedding anniversary dinner. Food and ambiance was great and staff is very friendly I would like to mention that Palchhin( hope i spelled correct) did recommended cocktail and food which suits to our palate. They have live dj playing at background with Bollywood peppy number's.Overall it was great experience give a try if looking for good contemporary Indian food with playful ambience.”
“Food was pretty good, we got some wagyu as well and that was excellent. The service was a bit of a mess though. The girl who served us talked really fast and was giving off the feeling of being impatient while taking the order but walked around the restaurant really slowly lol she also didn't go into any detail about how things work. As an example, when she brought us water she still hadn't brought us cups which normally wouldn't be a big deal but then she brought 3 cups over then took one away to bring to another table even though there was 3 of us sitting at the table ? it was almost so bad that it was more funny then anything else. The sauce station was also never stocked properly. Missing ingredients every time we went over. Highly recommend figuring out a better system for that for better customer experience.”
“This is the best! The premium menu was perfect; food was delicious and fresh, and the place is nice and spacious. The best of all was the staff though. They are super nice and helpful, and they are always around to help. Definitely will come back with my friends!!!”
“Amazing place if you want to try some real Egyptian cuisine! The staff are incredibly friendly and it feels like they really put their heart into it.We ordered the kebda, falafel, and a few smash burgers for the kids - everything was delicious!We’ll definitely be back :)Kid-friendliness: We went with 4 kids and the staff were super kind and accommodating to them all!”
“Found this place on TikTok, thought it looked pretty and the food seemed delicious so we decided to check it out. The food was great, however, as a vegetarian, options were limited. The best dish I tried was the tartufo dessert, which was heavenly! The atmosphere was also beautiful. My favourite thing about this place is the exceptional service we received. 10/10 for all the staff who made us feel taken care of all night ? Best service in any restaurant I’ve been to in Toronto!”
“Came here with the girls on a Sunday during happy hour. Didn't think we were going to stay a whole three hours and we pretty much got everything on the menu. Our waitress was fantastic, as well as everyone who stopped by the table. Everybody was very knowledgeable. The food was evenly timed out because we did order everything. They made sure that we didn't have a lot of food on the table to get cold beverages were fantastic. Vibe was Vibin. I know they said this was Hawaiian inspired not a lot of dishes gave me that feeling however, Asia has a big influence on these dishes. Regardless, definitely should be on your list to try. Must try dishes or the pork belly because that dipping sauce is amazing. Currently trying to replicate it at home. I also recommend the kimchi dip and the mushroom skewers were fantastic!! Book a reservation! Get there to try it out.”
“Braved a snowstorm for sushi and was not disappointed! Super fresh, packaged nicely, delicious and great value for the prices. Indulged in miso soup, seaweed salad, torched salmon and California rolls. I got takeaway, but peeked into their seating area and super modern and clean aesthetic. Will definitely be back again for my next sushi fix! ? ?”
“Such a cute little spot to pop into for a coffee if you're near Union Station or the PATH. The baristas are so friendly and the service is consistent every time. The expresso-based bevies and snacks will keep you going all day.”
“Had dinner at The Signature on King Street in downtown Toronto tonight. The classy setting, friendly professional staff, and the priceless views of Roy Thomson Hall right across the street contributed to a very memorable experience.The night started with a cheese pizza appetizer that set the bar high. It tasted amazing. The fish and chips I ordered were the best I've ever had. The halibut was thick, tender, and full of flavour, with a perfectly crisp batter, served with fries and tartar sauce.This was one of the best, if not the best, dining experiences I've had since living in Toronto. The pricing also is one of the best values I've encountered for the quality.”
“Food Street Toronto's Butter Chicken Rice Bowl is like, seriously amazing. The chicken's so tender, and the sauce is creamy and rich. And don't even get me started on the fluffy rice! It's like a flavor explosion in your mouth. Best in the city, hands down! ?”
“My husband and I visited Resurrection Restaurant this past weekend and wow, just wow. First walking in you feel very welcomed and a modern inviting ambiance.We were greeted by what we come to find out one of the owner's Matthew and were seated at our table.We asked for their best cocktail to start, now I don't remember what it was called but it was so good we had several more. We ordered a couples of apps and mains. Everything was presented in such a beautiful manner and tasted just amazing.The service, food and cocktails were amazing we definitely plan to return again very soon.Big shout out to Matthew who welcomed us and made the best cocktails we've had in a while.Keep up the amazing work”
“First time trying this place and am in love with it! We had the banh mi, tacos, and poutine and they were all very flavorful and delicious. We also had the coconut coffee and coconut matcha and they both tasted amazing. Really cute and calming atmosphere. Even cuter that it’s family owned and the family is very sweet. Will definitely come back!”
