You need to Baldwin Village it up!

1. Etsu Japanese Restaurant
Toronto, ON M5T 1L1
(416) 599-4200
I still frequent Etsu, and having tried out their various non-sushi/japanse offerings I still have high praise for it. Their bibimbap is amazing although I prefer the dolsot one a lot more than the fast cooling "non-dolsot" bibimbap. And their cold…More »

This really is as good as a sushi restaurant can get (at those that serve up a good amount of food… Read more »
2. Hanoi Bistro
I've visited Hanoi Bistro whenever I get a craving for Pho or the need for a real meal while studying and Subway just wouldn't cut it. It's another Baldwin VIllage favourite of mine. I'm a big fan of Vietnamese cuisine in general and from the few…More »
3. Elle M'a Dit
A great addition to Baldwin, French food for less money than Bodega but not lacking in quality. Although cheaper than Bodega in general it's not what I would call a cheap meal.
It's brand spanking new replacing Thai Paradise, and while Thai Paradise…More »
4. T.A.N. Coffee
One major thing that was always missing from Baldwin Village was a great coffee shop to compliment its various restaurants. So when TAN (whose Queen location was a favorite of mine on the coffee passport) opened up a few weeks ago, all my prayers…More »
5. Vegetarian Haven
Toronto, ON M5T 1L1
(416) 621-3636
Category:
Vegetarian
Neighbourhood: Downtown Core
You just feel great and healthy walking out from this restaurant. Now, I love including meat in my diet, but Vegetarian Haven makes vegetarian/vegan diets look good! I was sort of dragged there by my roommate and I was very pleasently surprised from…More »
6. The Little Video Shop
Toronto, ON M5T 1L1
(416) 205-9435
Category:
DVD & Video Game Rental
Neighbourhood: Downtown Core
Another reason why I love Baldwin. Not only is this a good video rental store with a good selection, it's also home to delicious homemade gelato! Many a times have I come in here just for the cold treat!
To become a member you need a $20 deposit and…More »
7. Matahari Grill
3.5 stars for me!
Another Baldwin Village favourite of mine! The reason it's missing out on 4 stars is that it's slightly more pricey than I think it should be (it's still not expensive though) and while the food quality here is good, compared to…More »
8. John's Italian Caffe
Toronto, ON M5T 1L1
(416) 596-8848
Customer service level separates my review from a 4 star (or perhaps 5) and the 3 star I've given it. While I have had a good server every now and then, the majority of the times, it's been slow.
The food and price is what keeps bringing me back to…More »
9. Valens Restaurant
I knew I had to try this place right after I saw that the former restaurant "Gateways of India" closed down and signs for "Valens - opening soon" were put up. They had been opened for less than a week when I walked in for a meal. I'm a big fan of the…More »
10. Jodhpore Club Indian Restaurant
Toronto, ON M5T 1L1
(416) 598-2502
Came here for their lunch buffet recently ($10) they had around 9 items including naan and white rice. Had 3 vegetarian curries composed of various lentil based elements, cauliflower, butter chicken, tandoori chicken, mutton (very boney) and gulab…More »

Another fine Baldwin restaurant. I'm not quite sure why I don't give it 4 stars, the food here is… Read more »
11. Kuni Sushi Ya
Not the greatest sushi I've had and not the best by far on Baldwin. For the prices they charge here(which is not that steep but there are better options in the vicinity for price), the food should definitely be better. Their AYCE menu did not seem…More »
12. Margarita's Fiesta Room
I'm not the biggest fan of Mexican food and Margarita's used to be one place on Baldwin that I didn't really care for. I've been there with people who have complained of food poisoning after eating there although I've never personally experienced…More »
13. Fujiyama Japanese Restaurant
Fujiyama used to be my favorite sushi on Baldwin but since then Etsu has taken over that spot. The sushi is cheap and I find it to be quite good. Put in complimentary edamame, a decent lunch specials menu, friendly service (have experienced it to be…More »
14. Konnichiwa
This is possibly the cutest stop on Baldwin Village. Very cosy and intimate with great looking decorations all around and friendly staff.
But big time 3 stars for costing way too much.
You get a $13 piece sushi set for almost $19 on top of which they…More »
15. Thai Paradise - CLOSED
Another solid cast member in the amazingness that is Baldwin Village! It looks small and it is indeed narrow inside, but fear not because there is an upstairs and they have ample room to host a large group of around 15 (but I can't be certain of that…More »
16. Yung Sing Pastry Shop - CLOSED
Toronto, ON M5T 1L2
(416) 979-2832
Great tasting and very cheap Chinese snacks. My favourites are the shrimp rolls and the stuffed buns. I have yet to try a lot of the options offered here though.
If you are ever around Baldwin Village but not in the mood for a meal, this should be…More »
17. Kowloon Dim Sum Restaurant
A very solid 3.5 - 4 star place. It had been a very long time since I had last visited Kowloon, and I was just there this past week for dim sum and then a separate visit with some workmates just for drinks.
The only reason people decided to come here…More »
18. Sambuca Grill
Another Baldwin staple which I always tend to not venture in to because the menu never stood out to me and they tend not to do great (or any) lunch specials which is the main meal I frequent here on Baldwin Village.
The restaurant is sadly mostly…More »
19. Kinton Ramen
Toronto, ON M5T 1Y9
(647) 748-8900
This is a smaller version of Guu that just serves ramen. Entering with that in mind, you're going to be very happy with your experience here.
As is a growing fad (one I'm a fan of) everyone shouts a welcome at you, you're promptly shown to your seats…More »
