(647) 288-4710
Category:
Canadian (New)
Neighbourhoods: Entertainment District, Downtown Core
This was going to be a 2 star review until I found a LONG BLONDE HAIR IN MY OMELETTE. I have black hair. my waitress had black hair. That sucker was cooked right in there. Gross.
Now hair is a flighty thing- this, ostensibly could have happened…More »

Category:
Hair Salons
Neighbourhoods: Corktown, St. Lawrence, Downtown Core
I have been dreading this review just because I know other people love it AND because if I ever see the stylist again I'm gonna get a swift punch in the face. BUT, by NO means is this place the dream people say it is.
And the only reason why I'm…More »
3. Mercatto
DISCRIMINATORY MANAGING/SERVICE WARNING-OPEN LETTER
I came here for lunch on Wed., December 16th with no reservation. The restaurant was very busy and it took approximately 15 minutes to get the host's attention to put us on the list. The host told…More »

Delis
Neighbourhoods: Ryerson, Downtown Core
You are severely overrated.
Ridiculously large menu, I can understand why people go here.
I CANNOT understand, however, why people line UP to go here.
This is one of those places that you think is reallyreally cool when you're like 15 and you're still…More »

Asian Fusion
Neighbourhoods: Entertainment District, Queen Street West, Downtown Core
I hate fusion.
Not that the food is bad. it is just severely overrated and whitewashed.
I MUST say though that they make it PRETTY unintimidating to eat asian food. I can understand how white people like going here- it can be weird for you when you…More »

Himalayan/Nepalese
Neighbourhoods: Entertainment District, Queen Street West, Downtown Core
Worst restaruant ever.
ok, not worst, but so below average and on top of that ridiculously bad pretentious service that you don't want to ever step foot in that resturant and you will even go OUT of your way to write a horribly bad review on yelp just…More »
7. Fuzion - CLOSED

Neighbourhoods: Church-Wellesley Village, Downtown Core
Pretentious? check.
overpriced? check.
tasty small portions? check.
It's like this place went through restaurant makeover and made everything into small portions on square plates.
Yes the lounge is nice to sit in. And the service is above average nice…More »
8. Sarah's Shawarma & Falafel
I actually am really not a fan of this place. I don't get the hype- the meat and the falafels are not fresh and I find everything a bit dry and they compensate by bathing it in a lot of grease which just equates to overly dry meat coated with nasty…More »
9. Ghazale Restaurant
The problem with this place is that it smells MUCH better than it actually tastes. It's like those damn hot dog carts that suck you in with the delicious fried onions and then halfway through the hot dog your over it.
And I must say taht this place…More »
10. Irish Embassy Pub & Grill
Toronto, ON M5E 1J1
(416) 866-8282
It's alright..the waitstaff leaves something to be desired..and the people..well the people are an odd mix of financial men and then the mangey types who feed of the finance industry. It's not my favourite spot and I wouldnt' pick it if it weren't…More »

In my quest to continue trying different places for fast lunches in the financial district, I found some rave reviews of this place.
I'd say this place is average.
I got the eggplant and chicken sandwhich $7 and change
Let me paint you the picture.…More »
Recently updated lists from Melissa F.
Financial District/St.Lawrence Hangouts (10)Here's a list of solid places that are tried, tested and true. by me!I enjoy these places so much that I will go there over and over and over and over again. |
I'd destroy my liver for you: Best BEER in Toronto (6)I'm making my favourite bar list- probably not different than most lists- but this is my favourite places to grab a pint any hour of any day because apparently I hate my liver or at least need to desperately test the limits of its ability to regenerate. |
February Food-Free Yelping Challenge (8)Foodless February: Yelping NON-food places- the most difficult yelp challenge yet!Feeling like yelp should have so much more to offer than foodie reviews? C'mon, we're more than just Chowhound with yelpstick- let's do some NON-food places for Feb 2012! |
"I'm sitting here RIGHT NOW"- Fave work-Cafes w/ FREE WIFI (9)are you FUNemployed and work on your laptop a LOT?Here are some of my regular cafes that I work at that have quality espresso and a comfortable vibe for me to work. |
Travelling Solo #1: Seattle (38)I'm a big fan of travelling solo. Here's my itinerary in case any other ladies are looking to do similar type of touristing, bar hopping, cafe people watching and dance-cations. All rated on the degree of solo friendliness.(fyi- i went down w/ a group of girls and stayed after for a few days by myself) |
Cozy up by the Fireplace: Winter picks! (2)It's cold. It's gross. Why don't we make it a lot LESS gross by cozying up against the fireplace? |
Donnelly Group FAIL (7)Why does the Donnelly Group own everything in this town? And why do they suck SO much. Please stop doing so badly- you made a good pub once. It was called Biminis. It burnt down. Along with your talent at replicating that experience with your CHAIN OF FAILURE.= ) |
Croissants: Lard always makes things better (9)I always thought I kind of hated croissants. Turns out it was because I was eating BAD croissants. So now I'll only eat a perfect buttery flakey croissant- so if you are picky like me- you want to read this list. |
Indian craving? EAT HERE (7)After a strange NON-pregnancy induced craving for Indian food I tried several AYCE buffets within 2 weeks. In case you ever go through the same gluttony here is your go-to guide! |
Double Takes: not all locations are made the same (14)Have you ever come across a different location of the same resto and thought, "right on! deliciousness HERE TOO!"Well think again- not ALL locations are created equally. |

Toronto, ON
Yelping SinceMarch 2009
Things I Love Find Me Inthe city.
When I'm Not Yelping...I'm adventuring, academicizing or peer pressuring.
Why You Should Read My ReviewsI balance out gluttony with reviewing non-eating places too.
