1. Soup Nutsy
Toronto, ON M5K 1K7
(416) 304-1383
Category:
Soup
Neighbourhoods: Financial District, Downtown Core
If you want to avoid the line-up, it's best to visit the Soup Nutsy before lunch time or after the rush. If you can't wait that long, head there and be prepared to wait. But why go, you ask? The answer is simple: they have awesome soups.

2. Amaya Express
Toronto, ON M5H 1P9
(416) 214-0005
Category:
Ethnic Food
Neighbourhoods: Financial District, Downtown Core
Amaya Express is one of the few reliable places I've found as of late.
Their menu is small but they have a few lunch combos (3 combos in total), as well as rotis and daily specials. They also served side dishes that you can get on their own like…More »

Categories:
Specialty Food,
Vegetarian
Neighbourhoods: Financial District, Downtown Core
Eating healthy in the financial district can be a challenge. I'm not a vegan or vegetarian but my options for healthy eating are slim pickin'. Very often, if I'm craving a snack or if my lunch wasn't satisfying enough, I come here.

Perhaps you're familiar with this scenario: it's Friday, lunchtime, your stomach is growling and your hangover won't subside. You need hearty food that will give you enough fuel to last through to the end of the work day. A place to go is Carousel…More »

6. Oriental Gourmet House
Eating at this restaurant is the only thing I miss about working in the Financial District. Okay, maybe getting a steady paycheque too. But other than that, I dearly miss not being able to enjoy their food on a regular basis.
If you want good…More »
7. Bagels & Company
Toronto, ON M5H 1T1
(416) 365-0904
Neighbourhoods: Financial District, Downtown Core
On paydays, I like to treat myself to a good BLT sandwich and I always come here.
Their prices are reasonable: their BLTs on toast costs only $2.99, tax included. The bacon to lettuce and tomato ratio is fair, too. You always feel ripped off when you…More »
8. Noodle King
Toronto, ON M5H 3M9
(416) 861-9398
Categories:
Vietnamese,
Chinese
Neighbourhood: Downtown Core
It's out of my usual haunts in the PATH but I've heard Noodle King is a good place to get noodle soup. They have a lot of daily specials to try out and you can pick from four different kind of noodles to go with your order.
I had their Spicy Beef with…More »
9. Furama Cake & Dessert Garden
Toronto, ON M5X 1A9
(416) 866-7412
Category:
Bakeries
Neighbourhoods: Financial District, Downtown Core
These Chinese pastries are sinfully good.
You can get savoury and sweet flavours buns, (I prefer savoury ones like ham and cheese, beef curry, ham and onion), mini cakes and treats. And they're super cheap, starting from $1.25, which can be a…More »
10. Sushi Q
Toronto, ON M5L 1E2
(416) 703-6636
Category:
Sushi Bars
Neighbourhoods: Financial District, Downtown Core
It's my favourite sushi take-out place in the area. I've eaten here for years and have never been disappointed.
The food is very fresh and also beautiful to look at. I get mesmorized when I see colours of fresh salmon, tuna, avocado and roe just pop…More »
11. Pizzaiolo
Toronto, ON M5H 1S3
Category:
Pizza
Neighbourhoods: Financial District, Downtown Core
Newly opened, this store chain is a welcome addition to the busy Financial neighbourhood.
For a pizza chain, I've always preferred their pizzas over others. I like to rotate between the gourmet pizzas like the Sicilian, the Capone and the Thai Pie.
