1. Nowshak Restaurant
It gets pretty QUIET in this Vaughan Mills Plaza for Sunday lunch and due to that fact, half of the restaurants in this strip do not open on Sunday. I guess it's Nowshak's lucky day because I chose them for lunch and we were the only table in this…More »
2. Spoon & Fork
Relatively new Spoon & Fork in the Woodbridge area. Some would say Japanese & Thai Cuisine don't mix at restaurants but the scenario differs when it's AYCE Dinner($24.99). Design of the space is elegant, chic bar lounge vibe at least front of house…More »
3. Memphis BBQ
If Guy Fieri came here he would say this:
This place is in the middle of NOWHERE in a town named Woodbridge, Ontario. The building stands alone and if you don't hear from the locals, you'll never know this place exist.
The BBQ Ribs, pure MONEY with a…More »
4. Kabob Express
To my surprise, I really enjoyed my MEAL here during my lunch break with a few others. I've always recognized this store front as EITHER the restaurant in-between Sunset Grill and Pho Mi 99 OR the place where a Korean restaurant used to exist.
It has…More »
5. Southern RUB Smokehouse
Going into this place, it has an Ol' Southern Comfort/Sports Bar environment to it. Southern Comfort comes from a select few posters of classical Jazz musicians hanging on the wall and I even saw a small Trombone too.
The musical consisted of a mix…More »
6. Ciao Roma
Ciao Roma,
It's my pleasure to meet you (Rectangular Pizza) once again.
Memories take me way back to our High school days.
The wild Party (Pizzas) we had, do you remember? 3.5'd
You were just a Plain (Pepperoni Cheese) Square back then.
How you've…More »
7. Pollo Loco Churasqueria
This is without a doubt one of my favourite lunch take-out spots. It's a tiny take-out Churasqueria place where once inside you can see a bit of charming decor but what's more is the smell of the bbq flying out the door when you enter. OMG, the…More »
8. Popeye's Chicken & Biscuits
I've been visiting this Popeyes Chicken for lunch ever since they opened. It's right next to Grazie Ristorante which I've never actually been to because for lunch Popeyes is the destination.
I've seen my co-worker eat Popeyes 5 DAYS straight…More »
9. Viale roma - Handcrafted Sandwiches
Wandering aimlessly we fore-go our GO-TO place and found something different, a Panini/Espresso shop.
I strolled into a cafe setting with the chic white table/chair combination and simple RED/WHITE/GREEN paint on the wall in a subtle manner. A large…More »
10. Bronx Burger - CLOSED
December... Burger...
Bronx Burger opened 4 weeks ago in West Rutherford Plaza same as Centro Panini and Turtle Jacks. It's so new that no Take-out leaflets are available as of yet. The space inside seems huge since there is quite a high ceiling…More »
11. Mister Baguette
Mister Baguette might not be familiar to most of you, however Nguyen Huong on the other hand might sound familiar to some specifically the Chinatown folks. Vietnamese Sandwiches.
The interior setup is similar to most Chinese Bakery except the decor…More »
12. Big Bone BBQ & Wicked Wings
BB BBQ has always been a destination for me to try.
It never came to fruition as their sister branch is closer for me.
Memphis BBQ in Woodbridge was satisfying enough as is.
Much much more convenient than driving to Newmarket or Barrie.
Secondly, I've…More »
13. Via Panini
A small operation in a strip-mall run by a few dedicated ladies that make the sandwichs fresh when ordered. The simple menu-board hasn't changed ever since I can remember but that's the idea, because when you come here you're probably thinking VEAL…More »
14. Churrasqueira Costa Verde
Interesting, it seems I can't turn the corner in Maple without having a Churrasqueira in my way. The Churrasco population is definitely on the rise and it seems even some Downtown businesses want part of the Pie(or rather Quarter Chicken). That's…More »
15. Pancer's Deli Emporium
Jewish Delicatessen in Maple. Mangia?!?
I would have never thought I would see the day when I had the option to choose anything else other than an Italian Veal or Meatball Sandwich in this part of the woods. How times have changed, otherwise known…More »
16. Vinnie's Fish & Chips
Considering this is Shops at Vellore where every Student comes to this nearby Plaza for their Lunch Break, I wasn't looking for anything the likes of Heston Blumenthal's Perfect Fish & Chips. As you know High School Students are willing to eat…More »
17. Daily Delicious Jerk Center
Ackee & Saltfish! No longer an Ackee & Saltfish VIRGIN as I got a small portion of Jamaica's national dish. I can see why it was only available for Breakfast before as the Ackee had Scrambled Egg consistency.
Ackee reminds me of a bit of Durian with…More »

A small family-run place that does West Indian food in a neighbourhood that lacks such exotic… Read more »
18. Gallo Churrasqueira
A take out shop that features Grilled Chicken as most Portuguese shops do. There are some stools along the walls for a quick dine-in but most visitors do the regular take-away.
Quarter Chicken Dinner($7.00) with side of White Rice and Parisian…More »
19. Grill 4 U
Have you heard the Grill4U radio ad? I have, but that's not how I found this place. I heard it from a friend and that's why I went looking for a Shawarma place during lunch. I went in not knowing if it was this place, but through the window I saw…More »
20. Souvlaki 2 Go
Greek Family restaurant hidden behind the scenes but it seems that a few resident locals visit on occasion. It could be the same crowd as Maple Bakery needing something different than Italian cuisine in the Italian community.
Souvlaki 2 Go serves…More »
21. Gagan Sweets
Gagan Sweets 100% Pure Vegetarian resides in one of the exterior plazas of Vaughan Mills. The closest competition would be Bollywood Bistro but it can't really be in direct comparison as Bollywood does Meats while having a smaller dining/buffet area…More »
22. Bhojan Bhandaar Sweets & Restaurant
Feeling for Vegetarian lately as the truth is eating Meat too often does get boring. If you want to find this place, first of all you have to know it even exist. Secondly when you've finally reached the closest intersection you shouldn't be looking…More »
23. Tandoori Time
Looking at a fellow co-workers take-out container which was apparently from the day before, he told me it was from Tandoori Time so OKAY I'll go check it out sometime, which was lunch the same day.
Somewhat hidden but I've passed by it quite often I…More »
24. Golden Vaughan
As it was Labour Day, I decided to take my co-worker for a Labour Day Lunch to celebrate Labour Day for all those workers that worked this day. I just drove around as he said NO to Swiss Chalet, NO to Harvey's, NO to Pho until this Chinese…More »
25. Pho Mi 99
This is the place where I take my co-workers to test their 'Chop' Stick-handling skills. I have been to this Vietnamese restaurant since they opened near Vaughan Mills and I am so glad because they offer great value for a good product.
I would even…More »
26. Bun Pho Phu Hai
First thing I came in to notice is CP24 on display top left corner at the back on top of the doorway to the back. Saturday Lunch there were already 5 or so tables as I notice families and rugged contractors have their lunch but all Asian decent.
I…More »
27. Pho Vaughan
Instinct tells me that this is a pretty good Vietnamese restaurant after having been here regularly. #26 Bun Cha(Hanoi Pork, $7.50) seems to look pretty authentic from what I can research online. It had 2 Pork Patties and the rest was Pork Fillets…More »

29. Cobs Bread
Cinnamon Month(November) at Cobs Bread. The inevitable has happened and they have expanded in the middle of nothing where I exist. Cobs Bread took over a unit from Mamma's Pizza and I'm so glad it did so, but that's a story for another time...
It's…More »
30. Pansit Na Taga Malabon
Sunday 1:00pm, LUNCH time right?? At least thats what I thought when I wanted to try a rare Filipino restaurant in the Woodbridge area. I didn't even know there was any Filipino community in these parts of the woods. I guess I'm extremely ignorant…More »
31. Ginza Sushi
The NEWEST of all the Ginza Sushi branches, this location has been open for approximately 3 months and I was not aware of it. Maybe because the last time I visited this new corner plaza at Dufferin and Major Mackenzie was in December for the easily…More »
32. Chicago Pizza Kitchen - CLOSED
Called into Spiro for the "Classic" Chicago Pizza ahead of time, as you know how us working types have to report back to our boss on time. I FINALLY get to see how DEEP dish a deep dish Pizza really is and can finally compare to the only other I've…More »

33. La Taquiza Canada
3-Star considering that I've never had AUTHENTIC Mexican and basically have nothing Mexican to compare to except Taco Bell, I'm sorry to say.
I stepped in the DOOR seeing a couple ladies coming out holding a piece of CAKE in a take-out container.…More »
34. All Star Wings & Ribs
DINNER experience here they really tend to push for the Beer & Shots and looking at the price of my friend's bill for a pint of Rickard's Red, I can see why.
Soda Drinks service is still top notch as the refills get here before you know you will need…More »

35. Zona Caffe
I LOVE Victoria Arduino, the Espresso Machine which seats quietly on the counter at Zona Caffe. It's such an aesthetically pleasing machine and it gave me an excellent Cappucino.
It's not one of the easiest place to find and DAILY citizens would not…More »
36. St Phillips Fine Bakeries
I walked in feeling like I was transported into a small and busy european-decor marketplace. First section I saw was some beautiful Pastries (Cannoli, Tarts, Puffs, Cookies), Secondly the Deli meat section, Third was a decent selection of fresh…More »
37. Sopressata Italian Eatery
Can Maple, Ontario handle another Panini eatery?
I have Paninis coming outta my pores, red from Tomato sauces.
Traditional Italian cuisine with a Modern taste.
Interesting idea but my palate has difficulty tasting the Modern so far.
Differentiation…More »
38. Nino D'aversa Bakery
Noticing a NEW Bakery as I drive by a local All-Star Wings I start to wonder what its all about and searched it up online where I noticed there are a few of these floating around in different regions of GTA already.
We went through an Automated…More »
39. Maple Bakery
This is a Hidden... Italian Cafe, Grocer, Deli, Gelato, Hot Table and Bakery. I wouldn't go to say it's a Gem but more like a Marble. A Marble with it's own characteristics that makes it more of a place for long-time existing returning customers…More »
