1. Rolo
Toronto, ON M5R 2C7
(416) 920-0100
Category:
Cards & Stationery
Neighbourhood: Yorkville
This store is the first place I go when I need to buy a gift for "the person who has everything" or "the person I don't know well enough to know what they want." Just walk in and start talking to the guy behind the counter and ENJOY!
The guy behind…More »
2. Xtreme Taste
This $5 lunch can't be beat! Don't let the long line outside scare you, because the staff move through people quickly.
The place is now called Extreme Taste, FYI.
For such a small place, and a small budget, it's surprising how many options there are.…More »
3. Sushi Inn
Toronto, ON M5R 1A6
(416) 923-9992
Categories:
Sushi Bars,
Japanese
Neighbourhood: Yorkville
Very affordable sushi in normally expensive Yorkville. The service is always good, in fact, the last time I went I had the friendliest server who loved trading stories about our pets. I recommend the sushi pizza especially.
4. Eat A Pita
Just thinking about this place makes me drool like Homer Simpson. Sooooo goooood.
I have only ever had the shawarma there because they are perfection. Seriously. And so cheap. Shawarma dinner is plentiful, with rice, potato and salad, so I generally…More »
5. Over the Rainbow
Over the Rainbow is the only place I will go to buy jeans. I swear. I was in Boston this fall where they have no tax - I repeat, NO TAX, on clothing - and I went to the True Religion store and couldn't find the heart to shop. All I could think was,…More »
6. Taz Hair Company
Toronto, ON M4W 1L1
(416) 922-6060
Category:
Hair Salons
Neighbourhood: Yorkville
I have been getting my hair cut at Taz for a few years. I always go to Kozeta, who is super sweet and really knows what to do. She knows I am conservative and don't want anything crazy, but she still pushes me to make changes and I always like what…More »
7. Dimmi Bar & Trattoria
Went for an early after work dinner with a couple of friends. The food was very good but the service was weird.
First off, the VERY macho server asked us if we had heard the specials. We answered No and he said "there are no specials". I think he was…More »
8. Whole Foods Market
Toronto, ON M5R 3R9
(416) 944-0500
Categories:
Grocery,
Health Food Store
Neighbourhood: The Annex
Why are so many people who poison themselves to look "better" (?) customers of a "healthy" grocery store? What is with the huge selection of unhealthy snacks at a "wholesome" supermarket? These and other questions come to my mind whenever I visit…More »
9. In Beauty Spa
Toronto, ON M5R 3L3
(416) 929-3313
Category:
Laser Hair Removal
Neighbourhood: Yorkville
It has been a little over 24 hours since I had my facial and eyebrow threading here, and I look like a mutilation victim. NOT what you want!
I may be being a little overly dramatic, but seriously, the threading and eyebrow tweezing was a NIGHTMARE! I…More »
10. Cafe Nervosa
Toronto, ON M5R 1B8
(416) 961-4642
Categories:
Coffee & Tea,
Italian
Neighbourhood: Yorkville
Reliable place for a nice Italian lunch in Yorkville. One of my favorite dishes on the menu is the very good Nicoise salad, although they give it an Italian name - insalate di tonna or something like that. Anyway, it's very good. The pizzas are also…More »
11. Dinah's Cupboard
Toronto, ON M4W 1J5
(416) 921-8112
Category:
Specialty Food
Neighbourhood: Yorkville
Lots of lunch take-out options, all very fresh and unprocessed. I am conflicted because the prices are high for lunch take-out.
Sometimes I go to Dinah's, look around and don't see anything that catches my eye, but some days, I do. On those days, I…More »
