Best Restaurants in T.O. for Healthy Eaters/Dieters

See All Lists
If you're like me, your life consists of a daily struggle of health decisions, and your new motto is "just say no". Well this can wreak havoc on your social life, when every restuarant becomes your worst enemy. Here's a list of my favourite spots in T.O. where you can have a good meal, and not feel down on yourself for days after - and most importantly, where your (non-dieting) friends will love to eat too.

 1. Pickle Barrel

312 Yonge St
Toronto, ON M5B 1R4
(416) 977-6677

I was taken to this restuarant for my birthday last year, being told "if you're going to have a big birthday dinner, we'll take you somewhere healthy for lunch".

Big fan of the healthy options menu - 5 gold stars for even including this option amidst a carby, cheesy menu that makes me gain weigt just perusing it. And we've got calorie, sodium and fat counts here people - we might not be in Toronto anymore.…More »
