    Since Mitzi's turned into "The Sister" - this might be my new destination for greasy brunch fare.  The prices are beyond reasonable, it is chock full of comforting straight-up, nothing fancy food.  It is so lovely to just be able to walk up & pay your tab when you're done with your toast, paper & coffee.

    Straight-up diner with friendly service.

    I can think of few greater comforts than waking up early on a weekend, walking in High Park, and stopping by Aris for bacon and eggs. Nothing fancy, but the staff & owners are friendly and the food is always good.

    The place is reminiscent of a road dinner along some stretch of town line road.  Yet, I find myself making a trek down here at least once a week for my fill of comfort food.

    Interesting collection of people, competent and friendly staff, reasonable prices and simple, consistent food is what you can expect from this local greasy-spoon.

    The souvlaki on a bun and homemade banquet burger are my top picks and you get excellent value with the breakfast choices.  

    Bonus marks for always being warm, having the daily paper and being able to get up and pay instead of flagging down a waitress for the bill.

    This is a great place to stop into and grab a delicious and inexpensive breakfast - especially before 11am because it's even cheaper!

    bacon & eggs, over easy, brown toast and coffee. please and thank you.

    I try and make it out just about every weekend to enjoy GREAT bacon. When the in-laws were in town they were brought here and enjoyed the breakfast (read: bacon) so much that we went there every day that they were in town.

    I haven't really had anything on the menu other than their breakfast, which as far as I'm concerned is as good as it gets for a classic greasy spoon breakfast.

    Also, the weekend staff is pretty choice. There is one waitress there who rules so much that my girlfriend asked her what section she works on which days to ensure that she would serve is. She was stoked and not creeped out which was awesome.

    Aris is another good place to get a cheap 'n' greasy breakfast on Roncesvalles. Sadly, long-established places like this are becoming rarer on Roncies, especially after the disappearance of the very-similar Red Flame not too long ago.

    Started by a Greek family (not, as with many places around here, by a Polish one), Aris Place is nevertheless focused more on standard greasy-spoon fare, like burgers, steak and eggs, and stuff like that. Not haute cuisine, and certainly not a flashy place, but the value is excellent and great if you're a fan of heart-clogging classics.

    9:40 on a Monday morning.  Veggie omelet was just OK, whole wheat toast was that Wonder brown stuff, and the home fries were fried on a grill or in oil that was old or rancid.  I didn't have any bacon, so I can't comment, but Daniel F. seems to know his bacon, so I'd take his word.

    Coffee was decent diner fare.

    Typical open kitchen greasy spoon.  The food isn't mind blowing and it isn't bad.  Everything exactly what you would expect from the place: 30 year decor, line cooks, and average food.  Except for the bathrooms which have been freshly renovated and are immaculate.
