(416) 551-8854
Category:
Gastropubs
Neighbourhoods: Little Italy, Trinity Bellwoods
4.5 star review. Only because it doesn't take reseravations and we waited (a very tolerable) 1 hr across the street at the hoof cafe, and the bathroom smelt funny.
I knew it would be a wait, but we got there at 8pm and we were told there was a 1.5 hr…More »

Okay except for the long wait time (still?!) the place still lives up to it's quality even after about 2 years since opening.
After thinking that I was going to the other location, I was little disappointed (only at first!) My last experience here…More »

3. Carens Wine & Cheese Bar
I love this place. It's my first choice when I'm in Yorkville and looking for somewhere to have a nice drink or dessert, or get a meal.
It's reasonably priced (for Yorkville) and it's something different.
I love the patio (but in front and in the…More »

(416) 207-0596
Category:
Turkish
Neighbourhood: Etobicoke
Oh wow. Turkish Delight is right. Came here because I was searching for something near my friend's work. Right at the corner of Kipling and Dundas, this hidden gem was a place you have to try. 5 stars all the way, and it lived up to it's Yelp…More »
5. Paris Crepes Bistro
For me to walk out of a place and rave about it, and immediately want to go back and have everything else on the menu is rare. But this place has definitely made the cut! Oh NomNomNom Gee!!!
I think this has to be the best crepe I've ever had. On par…More »

Breakfast & Brunch

Last meal ever at Hoof Cafe today before it goes to the deadpool *tear* Everyone walking out of the place was sad !!!!
Still one of the best (and fattiest) brunches I've ever had, but needs to be had at least once.
We went at 11:30 and told it was a…More »

Neighbourhood: Kensington Market
I have not a bad thing to say about the place! And it all started from the prompt (1 min delay) when they called me back after a left a message for a reservation.
You walk in, and it's like you've entered into another world. It's like the old town in…More »
9. El Almacen Yerba Mate Café

Category:
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhoods: West Queen West, Beaconsfield Village
Was back again, to bring some friends for a evening of tea sipping and chatting.
It was even better the 2nd time. I also learnt a lot.
For instance, the type of gourd that is used, determines the type of tea that would be used (some stronger, some…More »

I wish the service in Toronto could be as good as here.
Not only is food excellent but the service is quick an efficient. I haven't seen a hostess care so much. Our coffee was never empty and hot water was filled without asking. Our bill even came at…More »

I cam again with my mom last night, wanted her to try the awesome sushi they offer. Food was just as good as last time, but I have to say the service left some room to improve.

I thought it was excellent. Once walking through the doors you feel like you've been transported into a japanese izakaya.
I was excited to bring my parents here to try some more aunthentic japanese food, as opposed to the chinese version we get.

It's a bit pricey, but it's totally worth it. Portions are small, but if you're looking for fresh fish, this is the place. I did not regret spending $40 for my 15 piece sashimi and half a hotate butter, however, I think on my next visit I'll…More »

It's like you've walked into another world!
They have completely transformed the old Chinese restaurant into a Parisian bistro with an exquisite stained glass ceiling. Unfortunately also with a Paris bistro is small tables. If you have more than 2…More »

I think this was one of the best meals I've had in a while. The prices are good and the portions you get are at least double you'd get in the city. The ingredients are fresh and you can tell. The menunis traditional yet unique. Oh man, if your in…More »

Still a fan, but not a fan of waiting :(
We waited 30 mins for our food after ordering, so much for a quick lunch place. It would be nice to pick up the pace so that we can come here for a quick bite to eat before returning to the grind.
Opted out of…More »

So. Gross. But So Good.
The KFC and Harveys in the area must be kicking themselves.
CC and I got there just before the lunchtime rush. At 12:30 and being a noob I think I was holding up the line.
I got 'The Priest' with no cheese. It includes the…More »
