“This is a great little gem in Toronto's Junction neighborhood. The brunch was delicious. We had the specials. Their home fries are the most unique and delicious fries I have ever eaten. They also have a cool waitlist option that they use to seat their guests. The servers are very polite and friendly.“

“I've been coming here for years and I've never been disappointed. The chicken is the best I've ever had and so are the cajun fries. I went back last Friday and the service from the two girls who helped my group was top notch!

They aren't lying about their spice levels, so be aware of that. Prices are reflected in the portions.

Absolute must-try if you're in the Toronto area“

“The meat itself was grilled well — tender, smoky, juicy, and easy to bite. My only issue was the seasoning: it leaned quite sweet, even with the hot sauce. It would be great if they offered real chili powder or a spicier option. This might just be a personal preference, as I usually prefer more Asian-style spicy. I also wouldn’t recommend the corn, as it was too creamy for my taste.“
