“Thank You so much for an amazing evening November 09, 2024 at Old Avenue. The food is amazing, The Service is so attentive and quick. The Atmosphere is welcoming and you can feel the love and care from the owner the chef and the serving young people. Defiantly will go again and again to try more interesting things on the menu.”
“Loved it! Huge portions, fast and friendly service. 100% would recommend!”
“In a restaurant world dressed up with disingenuous marketing JOEY Yorkdale offers you a magnificent spot outside downtown Toronto that delivers what it promises on their home page, “Our guests, new or old, are not treated just as guests, but as if they are a good friend we are catching up with.” And this was the experience for me and my two close chums who selected this spot primarily because it was the midpoint between our diverse locations. From first arriving, the hostess took the time to offer a complimentary champagne glass and inquire if our visit that day was for a special occasion. It was a reunion and she graciously followed up with pleasant comments establishing a charming mood. When the waitress came to greet us, she also took the time to find out more about the nature of our reunion and only then flawlessly delved into the menu. I understand this is common practice at luxury restaurants; however, I would contend that, although there are dining establishments that treat patrons similarly, it is not simply about what you do but, rather, how well you do it. And this is the reason I am taking the time to write this review: JOEY does it very well. Having frequented several luxury restaurants in downtown Toronto I can anecdotally share with you that there have been far too many occasions when the host and/or server left a poor impression. Whether it is conceited complacency in their brand or even our own bigotry of unrealistic expectations, there seldom is a meeting point of both food, service, and overall impression. The treatment at JOEY was so genuine that it left an indelible impression. Each interaction with the server and hostess throughout complemented our dining experience. We were then surprised with dessert on the house presented on an expansive serving plate with the words “Happy Reunion!” written in caramel. Delicious, delicious caramel. Mmmm, but I digress… Over the years I have written to restaurants far more complaints than compliments and, in retrospect, this is unfair. It takes a team and a culture to create this magic and it can be quite challenging to get it right. When it comes together as well as it did on our visit, it is the sort of joy that can accompany you throughout your day. At JOEY they seem to have captured the right formula and I look forward to returning and catching up with “good friends” that understand that going out to eat today is about so much more.”
Restaurants by Cuisine
“The food and atmosphere were great, and the prices were reasonable for the quality. We ordered the chicken fajitas, which were delicious. Parking can be tricky, so you might need to park on the street. We waited about half an hour for a table on a Friday night. I’ll be back to try more of their menu.”
“I really liked that there were alternatives to pork which is often hard to find in Ramen spots. My Spicy Tan Tan was delicious and service was fast and friendly. Really cute decor.”
“I got the lemon-infused sauerkraut soup. It was absolutely delicious. It's nice that they also have quite a few extra things they give you (free of charge) in your dish like vegetables, rice, and large-sized portions of meat. The variety of options they have with their fish options are amazing, some with pumpkin-flavoured items and whatnot. Would definitely recommend! Only downside might be that this place is quite popular so there can be long wait times (as seating is limited) and quite a bit of noise (at the time of writing, on most days the restaurant is filled with a lot of people who can be quite disruptive to a happy meal).”

“Amazing atmosphere, great drinks, and excellent service. The staff were friendly and attentive throughout the night. Had a wonderful time and would definitely visit again!”
“We ordered a pasta tray and focaccia for my parents’ bday celebration and everyone loved the foods! Sandra is very accommodating with my modification request too. I have no problems communicating throughout the order process (via email). I even reordered their focaccia recently for my brother’s birthday!”
“Great food, service and ambiance. Whenever we visit Lara's Restaurant we feel very much at home hence the reason we go back frequently and hold all our events at the restaurant. Highly recommended Seta”

“Was there today with my trini friend and we got doubles, veggie dhal puri, aloo pie and curry potato and channa and dhal puri. It was so good. The lady made us feel like we were back home and the food is amazing. I'll be coming back for sure. It's the Guyanese and trini ladies with the little girl that kept dropping her wallet. Lol. Thank you for the wonderful service and great food.”

“We had a great experience at
Shinta Japanese BBQ and our server Chen was a big reason why. He was attentive, friendly, and made sure everything was taken care of throughout the meal. He explained the menu clearly, checked in at the right times without being intrusive, and kept our table running smoothly. The food was excellent, but Chen's service really stood out and made the visit memorable. We'll definitely be back!”
“If I could give six stars, I absolutely would. This place is excellence in every way. Whoever runs this restaurant truly knows what they are doing. We have been ordering sushi from here for the last few months, and every time we try somewhere else, we always end up coming back here.
Everything about their sushi is outstanding: the quality of the rice, the freshness and amount of ingredients, the flavor, the presentation, and even the pricing. You can genuinely feel the care and attention they put into every order.
This has become our go-to place for sushi cravings, and we cannot recommend it enough to anyone who truly loves sushi.
Thank you again for such consistently amazing food and service.
Esther, Daniel.”
“I took my son here, after 3 hours of driving and a very tired OFFSA track athlete. He inhaled his food. The portions were gigantic! The flavor tastes just like my maman's home-cooking. The restaurant was very clean, and full of patrons. Friendly and welcoming service. We will definitely go again, next time with the rest of my sons.”
Online Reservation Available
“Taste good but a bit too much seasoning that you feel thirsty after.”
“The restaurant, service and food at this restaurant was good. However the only downside is that the customers are literally asked to pay a tip. During this difficult period of the pandemic, it is hard to leave a tip. It should be optional but if you do not tip, you are sort of asked "why no tip". This becomes odd and the customer should be given the discretion to tip. This is the reason, I am giving 4 stars to this restaurant.”
“On September 21, 2025 my husband and i hosted a party for our 85-year-old friend. We were greeted with Happy Birthday Greetings. Our waters were never empty. Our food came on time, was delicious and hot. and all 8 of us enjoyed every chopstick full of such tasty food. Thank you to the staff that took care of every want, even a dish of ice cream dolled up for the birthday girl. Very nice treat. Thank you. Every time the service has been exceptional and caring a bit more today made it memorable for everyone Thank you.”
“Every time we visit your cafe, we get great pleasure and enjoyment from delicious food, which is definitely cooking in love! And this year I decided to celebrate my birthday in your cafe! .thank you very much to the chef and special words of gratitude to the lovely girl Manali, who every time surrounds all customers with warmth and attention! Professional approach to their work, knowledge of the assortment delights and there is a desire to return to this cute cafe again and have a lot of fun! Highly recommend Thai room on Dufferin! be sure to visit you again! Thanks .”
“I've been to Yu Seafood Yorkdale several times. An upscaled restaurant near all the high-end retailers. I bought my nephew here during his business trip and everything is good, and the bill was paid without going through the details. Not until I got home and found out one of the dishes was missed out from the dinner set for six. I called the restaurant the next day and the general manager Neilson responded promptly. It could be a human error and promised to compensate on my next visit. Having said that Yu is a great place to enjoy dinner or lunch despite of the mistake they have made on my last visit.”
“I had Simba's during Ramadan this year, I haven't realized that I should post a review, so here I am. This is, without a doubt, the BEST chicken spot I have ever tried. I went there with my 4 cousins and we all were in love with it, I never knew chicken could be THAT good! We got 2 Ramadan specials and a combo meal, The Ramadan special was amazing, the fried chicken sandwich, the smash burger, the tenders, and the fries were all so good. There's not one thing I disliked about Simba's. Keep up the amazing work, I hope to be back soon!”
“Best meal I had for a long time in the portions are beautifully and big, waitress could use a little bit of etiquette.. kind of leaned over our plates and our coffees , but otherwise fantastic service fantastic meal”

“Food/sauce is very flavorful, atmosphere is great and you can watch him making the noodles. What’s not to like?? Oh yeah and the cat robot that delivered our appetizers was awesome! We’re here at noon on a Monday and I can’t believe this place isn’t packed; with this delicious food it should be. We’re on vacation but I wish they had one in Charleston! Two thumbs way up!!”
“I rarely put 5 star reviews for any fast food restaurants because in my experience and personal opinion they don’t often live upto 5 star expectations.
However this time around I was pleasantly surprised with this specific A&W location just west of dufferin and finch. I personally don’t love A&W but this location hit it out of the park!
When I arrived I was greeted by a staff member by the name of Charrie. Charrie made this A&W location feel kind of like home. She was incredibly helpful, caring, respectful, well spoken and kind. It was truly refreshing and amazing to be greeted and taken care of by someone like her! Not to mention all the staff working at this location presented the same time of hospitality and care like she did. 10/10 customer service and hospitality.
Now The food was freshly made to every order that went out. The staff was organised, operational and worked as a team. 10/10 food and service.
This location has no drive thru and is walk in only. No order is rushed and quality is immense.
Also 24hr open. Amazing.
Hats off to Charrie and her team!! Absolutely outstanding.”
“Take left on Clayson Road coming from wilson avenue. Drive for 5min you’ll see Upper Crust board on your left. Park your truck where it says (Don’t enter) truck and trailer are allowed though. Once you park there, walk to shipping office. Take reefer temp picture along with you. They’ll tell you your dock no. Fast loading. Enough space for back up.”
“I am coming every morning for breakfast manpreet is serving me everyday with hot frish food and very friendly and excellent service she is hardworking manpreet is always making sure I get my food hot an fast thank you 😊 manpreet for your great service i appreciate it .”
“Hi love how the service is quick here, this time I wanted to try the new drinks, but at very moment I was struggling with drink names🥲😂. Thanks to staff, though the store was busy still Meet helped me to figure out drink without affecting other customers orders as the other staff member ( couldn't recall her name) was quick as well.”
“I had an amazing experience, The meatballs and panzo were absolutely awesome, full of flavor.it's clear that a lot of care goes into their dishes.
What really made my visit special, though was the service.the new ladies working there were incredibly humble and polite.”
“Taste good but a bit too much seasoning that you feel thirsty after.”

“I had a great experience at Pizza Pizza on Wilson Avenue! The staff was friendly, fast, and made sure my order was perfect. The pizza was hot, fresh, and had just the right amount of cheese and toppings. I really appreciated how clean the store was and how quickly they handled everything, even during a busy time. Definitely one of the better Pizza Pizza locations in the area — I’ll be coming back for sure!”
“I recently had a burger at Harvey's and really enjoyed it. The burger was juicy, flavorful, and cooked over a flame grill, which gave it a great BBQ-style taste. One of the best things about Harvey’s is that you can customize your burger with the toppings you want, making it feel fresher and more personal than many other fast-food restaurants.
The fries were hot and crispy, and the service was friendly and efficient. Overall, Harvey’s offers good value for the price and is a solid choice when you're craving a classic Canadian burger.”
“Amazing experience The food was absolutely delicious and full of flavor. The service was impressively fast, and the portions were huge definitely great value for money. Everything was fresh and perfectly prepared. Highly recommend this doner restaurant, I’ll definitely be coming back”

“Food is mid, 3/5. There are better noodles in the area but this is not bad for the price. We tried the dry noodles and braised beef noodles with soup as well as a few cold dishes.
Service is excellent though - very quick and they gave me a hair tie, bib and basket for my jacket and bag.”
“We ordered birria tacos and a bbq steak burrito bowl. The tacos were warm, very juicy, and definitely not lacking with their quantity of meat. The beef was easy to eat as well, very tender. For the bowl, the sauces were good, very balanced and with the rice and other toppings. The meat was great as well. The seating area is a little limited, and it is warm, unless the doors open for incoming customers. It is a little expensive but fair for the quality and quantity of food.”
“I got take out last night, rushing to eat before work (salad and chicken shawarma sandwich). It tasted odd... shortly after,, I called the location to tell them, something was off with the ingredients. I wasn't sure of it was the onions, turnips etc. something was left out too long perhaps... and today I am sick as a dog. I've eaten here before. I think they need better quality control on the food... especially being safely stored.. perhaps temperatures..etc”
“They specialize in chicken and do it incredibly well. Ordered a whole chicken and it was delicious, came with a red sauce and garlic sauce. The fries were perfect for this meal. Loved their soup (chicken noodle AND lentil) and their cucumber/tomato salad was so fresh. Was having a bad week/month and the young lady at the counter was incredibly thoughtful. There are good people in this world!! The place inside was spotless (including the washroom). Will be back with friends. Thank you!!”
“Love visit this spot, we come here often and love it every time. The only minor criticism I have is that sometimes the staff have a bit of a language barrier so it can be hard to ask questions about ingredients or substitutions. Strongly encourage others to try this spot and recommend the brown sugar dalgona creme latte, it’s consistently a 10/10”

Fine Dining
“Not truly wheelchair accessible. I was very much looking forward to dining here. After reading some of the other comments in the question section, we called to confirm the extent to which they are wheelchair accessible. Utterly disappointed to find out that although they have a ramp, the only accessible dining areas are if you're with one of the large groups. Meaning that as an individual with accessibility needs, I was excluded from dining at this restaurant. My accessibility needs are temporary, however you can guarantee I won't be dining at this restaurant even when I'm able to walk again, until they rectify this situation. Inexcusable to exclude people with mobility needs in this day and age.”
“We came to Prime on Avenue for their Kosherlicious special (extended until March 12), and it was incredible. The menu included an appetizer, entrée, and dessert for $75 per person, with the option to upgrade to a 10-oz steak for an additional $25. We went for the steak upgrade and it was absolutely worth it. 🥩
We chose Prime for my birthday dinner and it ended up being the best birthday dinner I’ve ever had. The service was attentive and relaxed, and we never felt rushed. We were there for about two hours but didn’t even realize how much time had passed because the atmosphere was so enjoyable.
This was my second time dining at Prime and I will definitely be coming back, especially if they run this special again. If you’re looking for a great kosher steakhouse experience in Toronto for a special occasion, I highly recommend it. 🎉”
“Excellent customer service. The owner, Vera, responds quickly to calls & messages and has been very acomodating for my special event. The food is exquisite, the decor, music & atmosphere is outstanding. Vera and her team has provided great customers service and will be happy to return in the future.”
“I’ve been ordering from this restaurant for years, and it’s been a constant in my life during some very busy times. There was a period when my work hours were overwhelming, and I simply didn’t have the energy to cook. Being able to stop by one of their locations and pick up a warm, nourishing bowl of soup made a real difference,not just for me, but for my family as well. It helped me stay on top of my responsibilities as a parent when time and energy were in short supply.
What I truly appreciate is their concept of offering high-quality, ready-to-enjoy bowls. It’s simple, comforting, and reliable. The consistency over the years has kept me coming back, and I genuinely hope that as they continue to expand, any new locations maintain the same standard of quality and care that made me a loyal customer in the first place.”
“Great atmosphere and good food. Service ppl were courteous. They don't take reservations so be prepared for a good lineup on weekends. Highly recommend the grilled chicken cartilage!”
“Update:
Today I brought friends here expecting a great experience, as this used to be one of my favorite Korean restaurants. Unfortunately, the service was extremely disappointing.
We asked the server for extra side dishes, and he simply brought them over without mentioning that there would be an additional charge. Later, we noticed a $7 charge per side on the receipt, totaling $21. At no point were we informed about the cost or given an option for portion size.
When we raised the issue, the response made things worse. We were told the receipt couldn’t be changed, the manager wasn’t available, and the staff weren’t trained to use the system. That level of unpreparedness is unacceptable.
It’s really disappointing to see a place I used to recommend go downhill like this. Unfortunately, this was my last visit.
————————————
My go-to spot for Chicken Katsu and Short Rib!
The Chicken Katsu is always perfectly crispy, and the sauce is unbelievably good—rich, tangy, and addictive. Paired with the fresh cabbage salad on the side, it hits all the right notes. The short rib is tender and flavorful, and the rice portion is just right—not too much, not too little.”
Cheap Eats
“We visited this location for lunch today and found it to be fairly quiet and not very busy. We ordered two chicken sandwiches along with a chicken box meal that came with wedges.
The chicken was fresh, juicy, and pleasantly non-greasy, which sets it apart from many other fried chicken places. The sandwiches were good overall, though a bit more seasoning or flavor would have made them even better.
The chicken box included three pieces of chicken and wedges, and both were served fresh and hot. The wedges were especially impressive—crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and cooked perfectly.
The service was really fast and friendly. Parking is also free as the plaza has free parking.
Overall, the food was enjoyable, the quality was solid, and everything tasted fresh. While there is some room for improvement in the sandwich flavor, this is a good option for fresh fried chicken and delicious wedges.”
“Passed by Downsview and found this Caribbean restaurant. We ordered the oxtail dish and a mango-carrot drink. The oxtail was flavourful with a generous portion, and the drink was refreshing. The owner was very friendly and helpful. Simple interior, but comfortable atmosphere. We’ll come back when we’re in the area.”
“I had a really lovely experience at Cozy Cafe. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it a perfect spot to relax or spend time with friends. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made me feel very welcome. I would definitely recommend Cozy Cafe to anyone looking for a comfortable place with great coffee and a peaceful vibe. I’ll be coming back for sure!”
“As someone who loves the English language and all the words you can use to express feelings, this restaurant reduced me to being someone who can only say “oh my god.” First bite of the tangsuyeok - oh my god. First sip of the hyesik - oh my god. First bite of the jalapeño tuna / creamy crab gimbap.. oh my god! The kimchi, oh my god.
The service was also wonderful, our server was incredibly kind.
I already know I need to come back multiple times to systematically go through the menu. Oh my god!”
“Excellent Chinese restaurant, great atmosphere and delicious food, especially Lanzhou beef noodles. My girlfriend and I often lunch her, and because of the pandemic, we are now ordering delivery. Very fast, tasty and not expensive. ps. You should definitely try fried noodles, chunks of lamb, and barbecue skewers.”
“Pizza Pizza is a solid choice when you want something quick, affordable, and satisfying. The menu has a wide variety of options, from classic pepperoni pizzas to wings, fries, and even plant-based choices, so there’s something for everyone. The ordering process is simple, whether you go in-store, online, or through their app, and the service is usually fast.
The pizza itself is consistent—freshly made with a good balance of sauce, cheese, and toppings. While it may not be gourmet, it delivers exactly what you expect from a reliable chain: hot, tasty food at a reasonable price. Their dipping sauces are also a standout feature and add extra flavor to every bite.
Overall, Pizza Pizza is a dependable option for a quick meal, especially when you’re on a budget or need something convenient. It’s not fancy, but it gets the job done well.”
“I've been a customer of this restaurant since they started their branch on Bathurst St. Over the years, I've watched the business grow, and I'm always impressed by their service, food, and ambiance. The friendly staff always put a smile on my face, from ordering to finishing my meal. The restaurant continues to evolve, introducing new menu ideas and popular Filipino desserts-to-go like Taho, Buko Pandan, and Fruit Salad. Kabalen is a true gem in North York, perfect for bringing visitors to satisfy their cravings - a home away from home. One drawback though, is the accessibility. The dining area is located upstairs and the washroom is downstairs in the basement. As a result, it is not advisable for wheelchair users to dine in. Nonetheless, the establishment maintains a clean environment and is conducive for group gatherings, or for individuals like myself, who just wants to unwind after a days work.”
“Today Jan 3, 2025 was my first time here. Beautifully decorated, Clean, generous size delicious baked on the premises blueberry scones, good coffee, friendly helpful staff and owner. I spent a long time working on the crossword puzzle sipping my two cups of coffee. I wasn’t rushed. Felt very comfortable. I wish them well, and I shall return for sure.”
“The flavors of the food caters towards Western tastebuds.
The beef rendang was very soft. Their yellow rice was good.
The beef skewers Sate Maranggi are spicy and sweet.”
“Absolutely delicious food and really friendly employees. We enjoyed corned beef and pastrami sandwiches. Probably the best we’ve ever eaten. We also bought latkes, matzo ball soup and a fantastic split pea soup. Well worth the drive.”
“Its my first time here, very clean, tasty food nice stuff. Service are vey good . they have seasonal deceleration very nice. For sure will come often and highly recommend.”
“Every time we visit your cafe, we get great pleasure and enjoyment from delicious food, which is definitely cooking in love!

“Great place and staff at Barrie. Food excellent crown burger and grilled salmon with vegetables”
“Its a wonderful place to enjoy a hearty and authentic meal. I visited with friends, and we were impressed by the fresh ingredients and rich flavors in every dish. The staff was warm and welcoming, making us feel right at home. I’ll definitely be coming back for more”
“The staff was lovely, the food was good!! Would def eat her again!”
“Joey is our go-to place for special occasions in our family. The food is always amazing no matter the location, the servings are generous, and the staff and servers are friendly without being intrusive. I really liked their high chair for little babies. It was the type that attaches to the table — it was perfect for our 10 month old!”
“Really enjoyed my visit to Pickle Barrel. Prabeen provided outstanding service, very kind and professional. Food was fresh and flavorful, plus I loved the unlimited complimentary pickles! I’ll definitely be back, thank you again and the team👍👍👍”
“Amazing food with great selection. Food always come fresh and tastes delicious!”
“It’s yummy, good service, clean and place is better than old place”
“Amazing atmosphere, great drinks, and excellent service. The staff were friendly and attentive throughout the night. Had a wonderful time and would definitely visit again!”
“Thank you, Chef Piotr Przykaza and your wife for phenomenal dinner and Tristian for an amazing service 😊🍷 Very highly recommend it 👍”
“This is our second time here, and it’s consistent! We got the Tomato cheese ramen - the cheese was torched over the chasu and it tasted so smoky and savoury. We also got the curry udon noodles that were thick and chewy, SO bombbbbb. I had a wonderful meal at this small business that’s cutely
decorated. The food and presentation was 10/10, the owner was so wonderful, sweet, and welcoming, I’ll definitely be back!”
“The first time I tried this authentic Korean restaurant in GTA, and it was great. The mapo style beef was especially good, really spicy but absolutely delicious. The spicy fried chicken is a must order dish. I also loved their kimchi so much. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout my visit.”
“Highly recommend: The Knafeh. It’s my favorite Middle Eastern dessert, and I love that they serve it on a hot cast iron plate to keep it warm. Although the texture of the phyllo pastry was a bit too thin, so it became soggy quite quickly as the ice cream melted, which was a bit of a letdown.
Overall: It’s a very cute cafe with a nice atmosphere, and a great option if you’re looking for a spot that stays open late!”
“Very good experience! Had a fantastic waitress and food was excellent”
“I’ve ordered different dishes every time I go, but they never disappoint — everything is always delicious. Even the side dishes are tasty and well-prepared. It’s a Korean restaurant you can always count on.”
“Great food, great vibes, great staff. They accept all kinds. Try to bring cash for payment. Dven though I’m Caucasian they gave me chop sticks. Felt like I fit in.”
“It’s better then KFC Cheese stick OMG🤤best I’ve ever had The spicy 🌶️ pastas ou 😋 So I give it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

My accessibility needs are temporary, however you can guarantee I won't be dining at this restaurant even when I'm able to walk again, until they rectify this situation. Inexcusable to exclude people with mobility needs in this day and age.”
“I had lunch here with my family and i like the atmosphere, child friendly and good food.”
“Mina was fantastic, very friendly and enthusiastic, she walked me through the menu and was extremely attentive and so helpful. Everything was fantastic, from the hot freshly made pita bread, to the delicious hummus and the tawuk (chicken breast) which was tender and juicy. The rice was flavourful and the crispy onions added to how unique and delicious it all was.”
“We tried both the bulgogi and kaboom pizza and they were solid pies. We opted this time not to go with the cream cheese crust which was a better option as it limited the sweetness of the overall dish and was a better balance of flavor. The green tea dough was solid on its own. The kaboom, while heavy, was super cheesy and we got great cheese pulls out of it and crispy cheese on the crust.”
“Loved this place, came with my family and the service was amazing . The food was to die for. And they honestly were really amazing with my kids. I know it’s hard to take your family out sometimes and sometimes you share what you all have. But how they treated us so amazing with sharing the meal with my family of 4, and we only ordered 2 meals. And the waitress was so amazing because my kids really wanted tot try the ice cream but it wasn’t in the budget… but she saw how bad they wanted it and gave it to them on the house. I’m telling you now I will be coming here a lot more.”
“It’s a special nook in willowdale that provides great sushi! It is a bit smaller than other sushi places so I make sure to book a reso for dinners but mostly do walk ins for lunch. The quality of fish is very fresh with no smell and the service is always very friendly.”
“Our third time going Genji. Every single Time, phenomenal!!! Forgive me for not remembering the name, but the lady serving us 10 out of 10 customer services the food on top of that 10 out of 10 my girlfriend and I so amazing. So so understanding, and I offered out of court courtesy to life of the candle setting the mood perfectly. It gave us energy. It made us feel healthy and was the best spicy we’ve ever experienced. Thank you for amazing experience.”
“One of my favourite places in my neighbourhood. I frequent here a lot, and the woman who works there always remembers my order! It's nice to be remembered. Favourites would have to be the Agedashi Tofu, Crazy Boy roll and the Black Buster roll. ❤️”
“Great friendly service, was served food pretty fast. The best fried calamari I have had yet. The chicken Slovakia dinner was so yummy. I can’t wait to try some of the other dishes they have. I Would definitely recommend this place to anyone who enjoys some real tasty Greek food.”
“We had a family event last night at their restaurant. I can't stress how great the value is here, and the food quality was top shelf. I have eaten food cooked by some of the best chefs in the world and this was every bit as good. the staff were attentive but not at all intrusive. very accommodating for our large group of 15 people. Their shrimp and calamari platter was cooked perfectly, not at all rubbery, with a divine sauce to dip. Pasta nicely al denté. Calabrese antipasto, nice bread spread. Perfect, and I do mean PERFECTLY, cooked steak, chicken, and sausages. Their pizza is simple but lovely balanced between crisp and chewy. Not too thick, not too thin. Arancini were great. I highly recommend them for your next family event, or just a quiet night out for the family! Thank you to all the staff and the chef for making our family event a success, and we look forward to seeing you again soon!”
“I had the pleasure of eating at Goa a few days ago. The lady who seated us and helped with menu selection (Mary) was very welcoming and helpful. The menu is very interesting and diverse. I had the branzino and basmati rice. The portions were plentiful, flavourful and excellent. I will certainly return to try another dish in the future.”
“I had a great experience dining here. The atmosphere was welcoming and comfortable, making it a nice place to relax and enjoy a meal. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was taken care of without being overbearing.”

“Really loves this place. The food is great. The employees are friendly. Would recommend it to everyone!”
“The best Food🍜 The bEst Drinks 🍷 The best Vibes Ever 🍾 Must Visit BAWARA, TORONTO ( The Indian Restaurant) 🚀”
“First time here and found a right place for authentic Korean bbq with my favourite kimchi stew so yummy ! Will surely come back again even needed to queue... 😋😋😋”
“Would like to tell you ne er to come to this tiny gem you might miss before descending into Hog's Hollow but locals know this to be a truly amazing culinary experience worthy of a long drive.”
“Cute Korean restaurant about 3-5 min walk from Finch Subway station. Tip: exit through the passenger pickup area of Finch station if you're walking, that's the closest exit to the restaurant. I came here specifically to try their Ganjang Gejang (raw blue crab marinated in soy sauce), it seems that they might be the only restaurant that serves this dish in Toronto, that I could find and know of. There is a very slight fishy smell when I sniffed it, which is expected since it's raw crab, but when I was eating it, I didn't find it fishy at all, it was really delicious. The crab roe was soft and rich, the meat was smooth and fresh, everything went really well with the rice. I can see why this dish is called a rice thief now. I was really tempted to order another bowl of rice but on account of my diet I stopped myself. I would definitely try this dish again. I also ordered the kimchi stew and my friend got a spicy beef soup. Although it was not as outstanding as the Ganjang Gejang, Both were delicious and portions were good. The side dishes were good as well. Not sure if there's free refills or not since we didn't ask for any. The service was good, it's a smaller shop, seems like it's family owned. People were doing multi jobs so if you wanted more tea or something you have to ask them, they do really try to check up you though and would walk around once in awhile to refill your tea and see how you're doing. Overall a good dining experience, I would come back to try their raw crab. However if I was just going out for Korean food then I may not specifically go out of my way to come here since although the other dishes were good, it's not super outstanding. Aside from indoor dining they also have outdoor dining, there's a big white tent outside, they provides pretty good shelter, there's also hanging lights out there, really cute set up. We dined inside though since it was windy.”
“The best middle eastern restaurant in toronto, and I’ve been to many. Excellent customer service.”
“Best tasting pho I’ve tried. Bun cha was also very flavourful.”
“Enjoyed an amazing dinner on the patio Will definitely be back”
“Once every few weeks I order a party tray here for a pickup. Price is reasonable and the quality has been absolutely amazing every single time. Staff is very friendly.”
“This is the best Japanese restaurant in Toronto. Not only the sushi is great, service is Great. The most is the environment, anyone who like the 80s'in Japan, this is the right place to bring back your memory. Whether is the Japanese singers, advertisment, cartoon. I almost I can smell back the the theme of 80s'. Some familiar Japanese singers are Akina 中森明菜, Miho 中山美穗.........”
“Absolutely amazing experience! The food was incredible — fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The restaurant was spotless and very welcoming. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel taken care of, and their service was outstanding from start to finish. You can really tell they care about their customers. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great Mexican food and a fantastic atmosphere. We will definitely be coming back!”
“Great food, service and ambiance. Whenever we visit Lara's Restaurant we feel very much at home hence the reason we go back frequently and hold all our events at the restaurant. Highly recommended Seta”
“The food is terrific - unpretentious classics, obviously passed down through generations. Ask if Albert will be there when you make reservations; trust me, he makes the entire evening just that much better.”
“The food was absolutely amazing. My 3 daughters and I went there for dinner during Summerlicious 2022. We didn't have reaervations and the options were a 1 hour wait to sit inside or be seated right away on the patio. We chose the patio. We were served our drinks and appetizers within 1/2 hour but our main course came about an hour after but it was worth the wait. We will definitely return🍾🎉”
“First time visiting to the restaurant and already wanting to return for more!!
Summary: the fusion style Chinese cuisine is a pleasant surprise. The chef can actually create not only sumptuous dishes but also aesthetically pleasing presentation!
All the dishes we had were carefully prepared that would challenge your taste sensation . (See photos)
We are certain to return and try more dishes and dimsum in the near future.
PS. I wish they would open up another one in Scarborough!”
“This was our first time dining in at Meat Point and it left a really good impression. The staff were polite and attentive, the ambiance was cozy, and the food arrived fresh and flavorful. Everything we ordered was cooked perfectly and filling. Great value for money and a place worth returning to.”

“I had lunch at this restaurant and it was an excellent experience—perfect for meeting with a client. The atmosphere was elegant and comfortable, making it an ideal setting for a business lunch.
The food was outstanding. The avocados were perfectly ripe, the deep-fried artichokes were absolutely delicious, and the fish was cooked beautifully. Every dish was impressive.
Overall, it’s a fantastic place to dine, whether for business or a relaxed meal. Highly recommended.”
“We visited this location for lunch today and found it to be fairly quiet and not very busy. We ordered two chicken sandwiches along with a chicken box meal that came with wedges.
The chicken was fresh, juicy, and pleasantly non-greasy, which sets it apart from many other fried chicken places. The sandwiches were good overall, though a bit more seasoning or flavor would have made them even better.
The chicken box included three pieces of chicken and wedges, and both were served fresh and hot. The wedges were especially impressive—crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and cooked perfectly.
The service was really fast and friendly. Parking is also free as the plaza has free parking.
Overall, the food was enjoyable, the quality was solid, and everything tasted fresh. While there is some room for improvement in the sandwich flavor, this is a good option for fresh fried chicken and delicious wedges.”
“Was there today with my trini friend and we got doubles, veggie dhal puri, aloo pie and curry potato and channa and dhal puri. It was so good. The lady made us feel like we were back home and the food is amazing. I'll be coming back for sure. It's the Guyanese and trini ladies with the little girl that kept dropping her wallet. Lol. Thank you for the wonderful service and great food.”
