33 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in East York

“We had a fantastic experience at local public eatery]. The ambiance was lovely and the food was delicious, but the real standout was our server, Derks. She was so friendly, attentive, and accommodating to our needs. She sold us on trying the new menu items and the whole experience felt personable.It’s hard to find top-tier customer service like this these days. Derks truly made our night special, and we highly recommend dining here!“

“Swiss chalet this location has been around for decades from as far back as I remember. It always remains consistent never ever had any issues with a service or the freshness of the chicken served . Just decades of perfection so enjoyable and ample free parking.“

“This place has the best fish & chips, without a doubt. We ordered the hake (5 oz) and haddock (6 oz), which came with chips and coleslaw. And we loved the homemade tartar sauce! But if you don’t want fish, there are other options on the menu. The restaurant is small but quaint with lots of seating. For lunch on a Saturday, we managed to find a parking spot and did not have to wait to be seated. The service was very friendly and the atmosphere had good vibes. Would definitely come back!“

“Great service always. Variety of desserts. Good quality. Lots of products. Great custom birthday cakes“

“My 3 teenage kids and I found this place late Saturday night and what a jem (as long as your cool with karaoke) the jerk chicken dinner, tender and well spiced; and the jerk wings were maybe rhe best Ive ever tasted. Look forward to trying some curry.“

“I've been going to a lot of breakfast places this year (2026) and I think I've finally found my favorite diner. Everything was 10/10. Food was cooked to perfection. Constant coffee refills without asking. The staff work as a team very well. The interior is very nice and clean, with a modern aesthetic.“

“What a gem! Bravo to the people who work there! I have ate a whole pizza to myself now 2 days in a row 🙃 I had the cowspiracy, the tour de france, and I shared the Dino bones pizza lol I love different things. I also love quality good deals. This was it! One of the best things I have ever had and I almost feel you all have up my flavor pallette 👌💯🙌“

“First time dining at this place and I really enjoyed everything about it. Especially the ambiance. It’s a great diner feel with the red booths and checkered floors. The service was excellent. The food delicious. I can see why this place is busy. It’s a great neighbourhood spot to bring your friends and family and have a great meal together.“

“Lived in the neighborhood for 40 years and just found this little gem hidden away, I never knew it was there after all these years. Mandarin at Yonge and Eglinton just closed down so finding this place couldn't have come at a better time. Although I wish I had known about it long before now.“

“Breakfast is amazing and just the right portion. Love the old diner feel the place has. Must go and check it out. They typically close at 4pm and closed on Mondays.“

“I was in the building for an appointment and noticed the cafe... dropped in after my appointment.. Had one of the best Bacon Lettuce Tomatoe and egg sandwiches I have ever had.. If I am close by again.. I will get my food from them!! Thanks!! Michael..“

“The food is good, but nothing too special. I do like the wide variety of menu choices, with lots of different pizzas, toppings, and styles to choose from. The staff is friendly and the service is pleasant. There isn’t much indoor seating, with only two benches available, so it’s better for takeout than dining in. The drink selection is also fairly limited, mostly consisting of soft drinks.“

“Irrestible crunchy and full multigrain taste gluten free pizza, had to come three days in a row. the staff was extremely friendly and helping. in gluten free version there is medium size only, but you can choose any of the topings you like. There are different pizza cuts ready for you to try, these are however regular wheat dough prepared.“

“I went for a quick meal in mid-afternoon. I had the lamb and chicken combo which came with a side of green salad and rice. I chose not to have the rice. To my surprise I was I was charged less than what the price stated on the menu. The chicken and the lamb were both tender and spiced just right. I was very impressed by the quality of the food - fresh, clean and very tasty. For a quick and inexpensive meal, I highly recommend Afghan Cuisine on Overlea Blvd.“

“They serve the best Mexican food!!! 🥰“

“The best SHAWARMA EVER keep up the good work 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻many thanks 🌺“

“I’m VERY particular with my wings: I like ‘em deep fried, with a hot sauce thick enough to stay on the wings, instead of running off and collecting in the bottom of the container.

Thought I’d try these guys out after they opened, approximately ten years ago. I was NOT disappointed. Our “relationship” got to the point where I could call for an order (I lived a 5 minute walk away), and the owner recognized my voice, and could recite my order verbatim.

Moved out of the province three years ago, and have not yet found wings that could compare.

Back in T.O. for a visit, and I’m definitely gonna stop in.“

“The sushi was incredibly fresh and absolutely delicious. Our server, Hyunmin, served us on the patio with a warm smile even though he was very busy. Despite having to walk back and forth several times to take care of us outside, he remained friendly and attentive throughout our visit. The prices were very reasonable for the quality of the food. If the weather is nice, I highly recommend sitting on the patio!“

“The Service was great but I will never order the pancakes from them again, I was undercooked and dorothy on the inside. I told our waitress and they brought me a new one and It's same thing, either they don't communicate with the kitchen or the people who cook the pancakes just don't care. Eventhough the waitress has rectify the issue and asked me if I want to order something else but everyone already finished eating so end up didn't get to eat.“

“I ordered from this restaurant on Uber Eats and it came from a long way as I was in Harbourfront and it was delicious and piping hot.
I have ordered more food for today for my employees at Academy Foot and Orthotic Clinics at Broadview and Danforth.

“A gem. Generous on everything you think somebody might skimp on. Picked up and ate at a East York Civic Center picnic table.“

“Worst wings I have ever had. Old and dry my guess they were leftovers from Superbowl Sunday and I was there on Tuesday.“

“great pace to grab some fresh, local beer.“

“Food is fresh and delivered quickly and still hot.“

“Second visit to this restaurant. We ordered pho and mango milkshakes to go! Tried the grilled pork wraps last time. Everything was super delicious, pho broth flavourful and size was well-portioned. Mango milkshake tasted delightful and very creamy. Ambience is nice and warm, and servers are very friendly.“

“Great Ambience, Awesome Food, Great staff!“

“Had a great experience at South St. Burger! The employees were very friendly and welcoming, and the service was quick and efficient. Everything was prepared well, and the staff made sure we were taken care of. I was also really impressed with how clean and well-maintained the restaurant was, including the dining area. Overall, great customer service, a clean environment, and a really positive experience. Definitely recommend!“

“Total delicious awesomeness of bite sized belly filling comfort food.“

“Absolutely love the food from EDEN, on Coxwell Avenue. It is our local and we get take out at least 1 - 2 times a week. The food is always fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care—every dish had that perfect balance of taste and texture you hope for. The portions are generous, and there is something to please everyone in our family ...we love all of their soups and noodle dishes, our faves. The restaurant is clean, however not a fancy dining environment, just basic tables and chairs. I think most of their business is take out, so they haven't done much with the dining room. The staff are warm, attentive, and always recognize "regulars' in a welcoming way. Service is always quick, and everything arrives hot and beautifully presented. Happy to recommend this lovely little place. It’s the kind of place you can count on for a relaxed meal, whether you’re dining in or grabbing takeout. Definitely a go-to for delicious, comforting Chinese food—I’ll be back for sure!“

“Staff at this store will not be bullied, harassed or lied about. Seems like there is some racism happening against this business.

They serve clean good food and are nice people. If you give attitude they will react in the same manner.

Keep up the great work.“

“Best spot to order from during UFC nights. The food always comes fresh, hot, and on time even when it’s super busy. Pizza is amazing, portions are solid, and it’s perfect for fight nights with friends. Definitely my go to place for any UFC event.

Thank you Watan !“
