I'm not sure who goes to Eggspectation on a regular basis, but I would have to question their taste level. It was seemingly jam packed with tourists and ryerson students, with wait-times upwards of an hour. Are these people crazy? Brunch, to me, is a…More »

All signs point to tourist trap. I entered here with a friend out of sheer hunger, figuring that if all else failed at least I would get a good beer out of the meal. We both ordered burgers thinking they are always a safe bet - how bad could they be?…More »

I wandered in here after a great meal, looking for a bang-on, life changing waffle. Instead I got surly service and a terrible cardboard-esque waffle. They were out of chocolate sauce, so we had some lacklustre shaved chocolate instead on our…More »
Maybe I'm alone on this one, but I thought the food at Country Style was verging on tasteless and awful. There aren't a lot of restaurants in the city that serve this food, but that doesn't make it great by default. I ordered schnitzel with coleslaw,…More »

I've been to this restaurant twice for lunch and been unimpressed both times. The menu doesn't seem to change very much, and a lot of the sandwiches include veganaise, which to me, is all kinds of wrong. It seemed as though the staff were annoyed…More »

I found myself at Sushi Time because it was the closest sushi establishment as per the great oracle (aka yelp). The atmosphere was strange - serious poppy hip hop music was playing loudly, the server seemed confused and overworked running back and…More »
Lately, I am craving thai food day and night. I felt compelled during a jaunt in Bloor West Village, to try Thai Classic Cuisine. Mixed yelp reviews left me curious.
I went in for the lunch special - $7.95 for a spring roll, soup and main course. I…More »

I love beer. Apparently I always love the beer that Volo has just run out of. Every single time. This isn't so cute after the 5th time. In my opinion, the food is overrated, but if you want to sit down anywhere but in the tiny bar section, you have…More »

I was skeptical about coming to this restaurant, but with a car getting serviced at Canadian tire across the street I had little choice. My dining partner said "if it's this busy- it can't be that bad."
Uh, turns out it can. This restaurant was as…More »

Izmi Sushi would have had three stars if it wasn't for the fire hazard propane tank heating apparatus they had in the dining room. Scary! If I had seen it before we sat down, I probably would have gone somewhere else.

Thai

In my search for good thai in the West end, I happened upon here for lunch. The lunch special was only $9.50 so I thought I'd try it out. I wish I hadn't. The spring roll was terrible - very chalky. The soup broth was decent but the frozen vegetables…More »
Curry Twist was a mediocre experience. The best part of the meal was the free pappadums we received on being seated. We ordered a fair amount off the small menu and were horrified by our first dish, the Tawa Paneer - it was without a doubt the…More »
